the ep opens up with -plastic motion,- a techno track that is full of layers of subsonic pulsations, monolithically consuming the entire a-side. the sounds of the sirens are balanced against heavily stylized basslines moving in and out of the framework while bursts of white noise appear through the fog, creating a telekinetic hallucination. the b-side starts with the title track -confess.- a ruthless song that crushes together bass-heavy broken beat rhythms with straight-ahead kicks and snares. it s about to burst out of its seams any minute as psychedelic synths and buried vocals command it all to stay together.

the 4 track ep reflects the raw energy of real techno realms.

gegründet in berlin um die jahrtausendwende, haben sich kulku zu einem einzigartigen und frei geformten kollektiv von musikern entwickelt, die trance-induzierende, jazz-verwobene, perkussive und gefühlvolle (meist) akustische musik machen, die sich am rhythmischen antrieb von jaki leibezeits can, dem street-folk von moondog, dem minimalismus von steve reich und dem dröhnenden rock n roll von velvet underground orientiert und einen sound kreiert, den sie selbst als no-age krautrock bezeichnen.

new album by phase fatale

im lauf der letzten vier jahre hat sich hayden payne alias phase fatale einen ruf als erneuerer von techno erarbeitet – sowohl hinsichtlich des breiten spektrums dystopischer electronics in seinen dj-sets, als auch wegen seines tiefen wissens von synthese und sounddesign in seinen produktionen. nach releases auf labels wie jealous god debu&#776,,,,,,,,tierte payne 2017 mit der ep anubis auf unterton. seitdem u&#776,,,,,,,,bernahm der new yorker club residencies in seiner wahlheimat berlin (berghain) und seinem – quasi – zweitwohnsitz tiflis (khidi), vero&#776,,,,,,,,ffentlichte sein debu&#776,,,,,,,,talbum redeemer auf hospital productions und startete außerdem sein eigenes label bite mit einer kollaborativen ep seiner selbst mit silent servant. seine erste o-ton, reverse fall, atmet einen frischen, reinen geist von techno – weder nostalgisch noch futuristisch, eher anarchisch und beila&#776,,,,,,,,ufig visiona&#776,,,,,,,,r. phase fatale erweitert mit dieser 12- die klangliche variation und musikalische narrative seines bisherigen schaffens als producer ebenso wie er die bandbreite seiner dj und live-sets spiegelt. gleichzeitig verschiebt er die genreparameter von techno vorwa&#776,,,,,,,,rts: ihm geht es musikalisch weniger um ‚ha&#776,,,,,,,,rter‘, sondern um dichtere atmospha&#776,,,,,,,,ren und basslastige grooves einerseits, um einen bissigen, markanten und scharfkantigen sound andererseits. auf reverse fall gibt es von film(musik) – namentlich carpenter und argento – informierte stellen: markant-melodio&#776,,,,,,,,se, bedrohliche synth-arpeggios, staccato-hi-hats, du&#776,,,,,,,,stere sechzehntelsequenzen, knackige snares und schnalzende peitschenschla&#776,,,,,,,,ge, noisige drones und dro&#776,,,,,,,,hnende pads. zwei stu&#776,,,,,,,,cke wie gemacht fu&#776,,,,,,,,r halsbrecherische hochgeschwindigkeitsfahrten auf der na&#776,,,,,,,,chtlichen u&#776,,,,,,,,berholspur („reverse fall“, „blackbox“), zwei abgebremste stu&#776,,,,,,,,cke fu&#776,,,,,,,,r die horrorszenarien danach („incision“, „empty whip“). musik, karosserie, ko&#776,,,,,,,,rper und kopf verma&#776,,,,,,,,hlend – hier inspiriert von j.g. ballards verkehrstodfetisch crash, dort a&#776,,,,,,,,sthetisch im geiste dirk skrebers um stahlpfeiler gewickelt. eine abfahrt u&#776,,,,,,,,ber das gesamte frequenzspektrum, mit frontalcrash in einer schroffen klangwand.

the extended mixes single of phase fatale s debut full-length album on hospital productions takes three of the most dancefloor-ready songs from redeemer into abstracted, surreal and uncharted territory aimed for unlit, claustrophobic chambers. aided by silent servant with additional production, together hayden payne and juan mendez transform -order of severity,- -operate within,- and -spoken ashes- further down the machine. with more percussion and editing, they tear apart and lengthen the tracks through temporal space. the redeemer (extended mixes) 12- will be released simultaneously alongside the full-length album, adding yet another dimension into payne s own universe of the degenerated present.

phase fatale creates techno from disparate subcultures of dead industrial with a post-punk spirit, bringing back an immediacy and aggressive energy sorely missing in the contemporary electronic landscape.
with “redeemer,” the debut full length from phase fatale, conceived by dj and producer hayden payne in new york by way of berlin, deepens his exploration of the tension—both sonic and conceptual—begun on his eps released over the last three years on the jealous god and unterton labels. in intent and impact, phase fatale bears allegiance to the surreal influence of juan mendez aka silent servant, with whom payne has worked closely in collaboration.

following on a trio of successes with established talent, for our fourth release manhigh takes an excursion to lesser-known regions with experimentalist desroi. previously known from eps on his eponymous imprint and total black the german newcomer quickly caught our attention. beginning with the opener, ‘indifferent’, we are introduced to his heavily sculpted, hypnotic sound world, where a rolling, repeating rhythmic framework is echoed in the higher registers with heavily-filtered delay loops, and a melodic lead line taken deeply into dub provides both a centerpiece and the basis for many other elements. another relatively new talent currently rising quickly to wider notice, phase fatale’s relaunch of ‘indifferent’ stays resolutely in his own world, a grinding, banging amalgamation of distortion, punishing in its resolve and propelled by mutated elements of the desroi’s original piece. his idea of ‘apathy’ invokes entirely more aggressive emotions than the word’s conventional usage, tightly winding bleeps around a rigid sequence kept in motion by constant effects and sporadic drum hits, which then transforms at is halfway point with the entrance of harder kicks driven by an open hat. ‘sopor’ induces trance states more than it does sleep, sophisticated applications of delay effects and patient acid combine for a deep, inward-looking hypnotic state with momentary shifts in rhythm and color evoking the ephemeral nature of dreams.

blacksilk proudly announces its third release, the second on vinyl, reissuing a selection of tracks from dsordne, experimental electronic band active in turin during the 80’s and early 90’s. thanks to the proactive and collaborative spirit of marco milanesio, band’s founder and author of most of the songs, deserved and proper attention is finally given to three stunning original masterpieces of dusky, heavily post-punk influenced tracks veined with some sort of industrial aftertaste. these songs have been selected from a span of works, mostly autoproduced, that dsordne released in the years of activity on various labels (primarily the related hax records) or fanzines of the thriving italian underground scene of the time, which provided the perfect environment to experiment while representing the dull, grey and nihilist reality of the already post-industrial turin of the mid-80’s.

unterton introduces an artist who’s already renowned for his work within informed circles but yet to be discovered by most: berlin-based new yorker phase fatale debuts on unterton after strong releases with respected labels jealous god and aufnahme + wiedergabe and six well-received club appearances at berghain.

12 inch black vinyl + insert

falling ethics label owner p.e.a.r.l. uses the 8th installment in his fex series to come up with a remix ep that includes the some of the most exciting names techno has to to offer at this very moment. a great 12” that includes remixes from man of the moment tensal, berlin based phase fatale and stave (member of talker).

schwefelgelb is the electronic music project of sid & eddy. having carefully straddled the boundaries between techno, ebm and electro, the duo is entering 2016 with a 12” release on the new label incarnation of the berlin based fleisch collective. fleisch consists of a group of miscreants known for throwing some of the best curated dark underground dance parties in berlin, with a focus on sounds ranging from e.b.m., new beat, acid to techno. the metamorphosis of fleisch into a label could not demand a more fitting debut than schwefelgelb’s newest sonic discharge. tight programming, catchy analog synth-bass coupled with well utilized & frenetic shouted vocals echo the golden age of electronic body music. a refreshing progression of sounds moves the style forward without being afflicted with the formulaic and hollow tendencies befallen similar attempts by others acts over the years.

1990s alike effective techno banger with ebm/wave/newbeat roots.
