cinematic and conceptual - french producer umwelt presents his new longplayer. pressed on orange marbled double vinyl, hgoused in full colour tri-fold sleeve.

for nearly a decade, raíz and subversive have distributed their vision of dance music on various labels including historia y violencia, electric deluxe, construct reform, droid recordings and their own imprint, vrv. three years into the vrv project, the label heads have decided it is time to expand the roster and showcase artists on a similar plane, producers they know can speak to the sound. the chosen interpreters on this release include dj hyperactive, santiago salazar and voiski.

subversive delivers a follow-up to last season’s vrv release chainbreaker, this time with two measured explorations of atmosphere and movement. the title track, domestique, builds its drama around delayed synthesis, crafting a wash delayed environment that keeps a strong pace. corosync emerges from a similar approach but intensifies the drum programming and strips away melodic layers. vrv label bosses raíz rework corosync with emphasis on thicker beat construction and synthesized psychedelia. all the tracks play on the best of the detroit-berlin connection and are primed for in-the-mix hypnosis.

longtime raíz collaborator subversive makes his debut on droid sister label vrv with chainbreaker. subversive has appeared previously on historia y violencia and contruct re-form (under the name deception plan with voiski). this release for vrv is a collection of 3 tracks that reflect his focused, methodical programming. the title track stretches a deep, driving narrative over the course of 7 minutes, perfect for adding hypnotic breathing room to any set. the other side contains intergalactic, a subtle and harmonic passage that sets the stage for a2, telemore. telomere begins with intense, brooding synth design that inevitably builds into heavy rhythm structures, providing the sets most driving dance sounds.

subversive drop yet another bomb massive over at wmc 09 the classic >freaks come out< gets 4 fresh new mixes which lack none of the originals energy. cevin fisher has been remixing & making records since 95 & has a cv as long as your arm. new reworkings by anil chawla, tim davidson and eric entrena are included in part 1 of the 10th anniversary mixes, but the real jewel comes from fast-rising brighton-based house producers prok & fitch , whove turned in one of their mixes to date

subversive follow up the massive ygmbu with this killer cut.

since the akai s1000 came onto the market in 1988, loletta holloway and love sensation in particular must be one of the most sampled voices of the last 20 years. cevin fisher anthemic treatment of it is back on playlists too, toughened up with a trademark tribal dub from dj chus, with housier takes on the b-side. a very big set of mixes, this will seriously move floors for a long to come, simply awesome.

hq we happened to find some boxes containing all remaining copies of repetitive digital noise by i, a.k.a. atomtm! four tracks of timeless, minimal, acidic techno recorded in 1992 and rereleased - for the first time on vinyl - on recognition in 2006. as these tunes are still making rounds in dj sets of, among others, marcel dettmann, ben klock or nina kravitz, we thinks its the great opportunity to get hold of some of the most archetypical tracks that helped to shape techno as we know it today

for correspondant 06, we have invited another french producer who comes from paris and calls himself offset. after a series of jazz/funk projects, offset found his calling with electronic music. >gazoline< is the title track and its a straight dance floor burner that crawled under our skin on the first listen. >subversive< is proof that slow can be dark, groovy, powerful, and sexy all at the same time, and >addicted< has a taste of trance just the way we like it, not too much, but just enough.
