Werner/Hitchell/Traxx - Fractal Rip - Antenna International ANT08

A - Werner & Hitchell - Fractal Rip
B - Traxx - Introspective (Prelides & Nocturnes version)

"Two deep and deadly jack sojourns from Echospace's Steve Hitchell and Chicago stalwart Josh Werner! They've found a terrifically mean streak of form with this 12", dropping the heat-seeking jack of 'Fractal Rip' on the A-side, built with chewed-up 303 bass gurgles and ruff-cut machine rhythms to help even the most uncoordinated warehouse dweller find their perk. On the flip they offer a harrowing 'Preludes & Nocturnes' version of 'Introspective' from Traxx's 'Faith' disc, refracting it through Hitchell's matrix of filters, delays, and assorted vintage FX until it emerges zombified and harrowed, like some darkwave proto-house gem that's been cowering in the corner of Jamal Moss's basment for the last 25 years."

Erell Ranson - Everything Needs To Be Clear - aDepth Audio 004

A1 Everything Needs to Be Clear
A2 So Strange to Explain
B1 Everything Needs to Be Clear (Rennie Foster’s Deep Clarification)
B2 Sandcastle

"The 4 track EP begins with Erell’s original version of ‘Everything Needs to Be Clear’. Its combination of gentle chords with electro beats is the foundation of the musical ideas explored throughout this release. The second track, ‘So strange to explain’, is deeper and an adventurous fusion of dark, intense tones, swirling beats and insistent percussion. On the flipside, Canadian Rennie Foster remixes the title track, and delivers a fine piece of modern dancefloor techno which respects the key elements of title track. Erell’s ‘Sandcastle’ closes the EP, and its sophisticated yet punchy bassline and fragile synths recall some classic early ‘90s productions." Diamonds and Pearls

Splice - Den Andra Farden - Farden 002

"Second release from Färden featuring the debut from Splice – a solo project from one of the guys in Skudge. This is some really pure and beautiful techno." Clone

Skudge - Skudge (remixes) part 3 - SKUDGE 003R

A - Ontic (Rolando Understands remix)
B - Convolution (2562 remix)

"This time Rolando and 2562 (A Made Up Sound) contributes with remixes of Ontic and Convolution. Rolando takes Ontic into a deeper level with a cool vocal, the perfect groove and his nice sizzling shaker. 2562's version of Convolution is a true dubstep makeover. As well as Rolando he uses a lot of elements from the original and makes it to his own special journey" Clone

Kowton - She Don't Jack - Idle Hands 005

a. She Don't Jack
b. Drunk On Sunday

"On this one 'She Don't Jack' sticks with the sub-120bpm pace, furnishing his Bristol House with Terminator synth gazes, needly hi-hats and a beautifully restrained, offset bassline keeping his dark funk tucked firmly in the pocket. Staying minimal and menacing but with an acute dose of rudeness 'Drunk On A Sunday' sounds like Sleeparchive just got horny and decided to swing his hips for a change, inflating a fat-assed subbass under clinically crisp percussion and lights-out synth wipes."

Malcolm Moore - Yours In Deepness Vol 1 - Altered Moods AMR-20R

A1 - Touch Me" (introlude)
A2 - Everything
A3 - Trusting
B1 - T'estimo (Just A Ghost 2 U
B2 - Juswannabeclose
B3 - Lookin' U In The I (Dreamily)

"Altered Moods boss Malcolm Moore releases the first solo EP under his own name, with the lush soundscapes of Yours In Deepness Volume 1. From the dreamy "Introlude" through to the orchestral strings and barely-there beat on "Everything" and gentle woodwind assisted shuffle of "Trusting", Moore shows himself to be a capable hand when it comes to the deeper end of house. The moody, introspective vibe is maintained on the flip, with the gentle chiming melody of "Juswannabeclose" a particular highlight. " Juno

2 - Piem
3 - Yours (feat Virginia)
4 - Arms
5 - Manic Moods
6 - Mine
7 - Nightspacer
8 - Your Own My Mind
9 - Moving Lips

"Superbly clean and classic sounding debut album from Panorama Bar resident and all round House music dynamo, Steffi. Since 2000 Steffi has run the ace Klakson label with Dexter, responsible for the era defining releases 'I Don't Care', and since last year she's branched out with the Dolly label, home to vital vinyl from Dexter, Jakob Korn and Tyrez. Her own productions have only emerged in the last couple of years, landing on Ostgut Ton and UQ, showcasing a supple, simple and highly effective style of deeper modern house music. All nine cuts on 'Yours & Mine' are exclusive to the album, featuring two superior vocal tracks with Virginia (vocalist for Steve Bug and Abe Duque a.o), the Detroit-tempered 'Yours' and the deliciously moody 'You Own My Mind', next to the beautifully toned square bass workout 'Arms', the purposeful late night jack of 'Manic Moods' and the synthual Berlin sehnsucht of 'Nightspacer'. It' surely no overstatement to say this is one of the most beautifully accomplished releases on Ostgut Ton, and a total must have for fans of sophisticated, classically-informed Berlin House music.

Tin Man - Acid Test - Absurd Recordings - ASD015

A1 - Nonneo
A2 - Accumulated Acid
B1 - Nonneo (Donato Dozzy Remix)

"Tin Man releases are seriously prized possessions around these parts. His first release since the ace 'Scared' LP on White Denim features a pair of superb instrumental acid numbers backed with an outstanding remix by Donato Dozzy. 'Nonneo' is very much in the vein of his earlier releases for Global A and Keys Of Life, masterfully enveloping exotic House drums with rubbed and teased acid melodies in distinguished fashion. 'Accumulated Acid' is perhaps closer to his more recent experiments, a slow and craftily half-stepped acid progression with clinical production values. the master of Italian sleep-techno, Donato Dozzy, gives an anaesthetised remix of 'Nonneo' on the flip, numbing the drums for a more reserved, hypnotic and druggy effect." Boomkat

Hieroglyphic Being - Calling Planet Earth - Mathematics MATHPLUS 07

A1 - Calling Planet Earth
B1 - The Magic City
B2 - Conversations In An Analog Dialect (A Sun Ra Homage)

"Beamed from his mind via VHS onto hand-stamped white label vinyl, three far-gone cuts from Jamal Moss aka Hieroglyphic Being. The longform title track unleashes a torrent of distorted jakk patterns and freakin' noisy synths for deadly dancefloor discombobulations, while the flipside 'The Magic City' chews up relentless machine codes and cryptic synth motifs. 'Conversations In An Analog Dialect' completes this turn with a gracious nod to the equally far-gone Sun Ra." Boomkat

Download - Aril Brikha - Rising Sun

"Swedish-Iranian producer Aril Brikha has been hard at work crafting his own niche into the austere world of techno music since the spritely age of 16, and now, nearly 19 years later, the multi-faceted artist has not only made his mark in the US, Europe, and beyond, but he's also started his own label, Art of Vengeance. Just released on Brikha's imprint is a re-issue of his first LP from back in 2000, Deeparture In Time, a 10-track album that now comes with an extra disc of previously unreleased music that the musician crafted between 1995 and 1999. "Rising Sun" is a fine example of those warm, classic sounds; its deep techno vibes reference the Detroit-born sounds that first inspired Brikha to make music, while simultaneously standing as an unheard precursor to the kinds of club music we love to get down to today.

"In early 2011, CRC, one half of Finland’s red-hot Electro-duo Morphology, returns to Heliocentric Music with two new blistering tracks in the vein of famous 90ies UK-IDM Techno like B12 or Nuron/Likemind. The contribution by Myon is a 9-minute cut with huge basslines and strings that will rock your socks off! After the big success of their previous combined release, CRC and Myon team up again to deliver a record, which is highly inspired by Detroit-Techno in general and contains lots of… Strings & Harmonies!"

"Lushly built, beats-driven ambient album from Desolate aka Sven Weissmann. 'The Invisible Insurrection' is in no small part influenced by one Will Bevan aka Burial, taking his mournful urban ennui and swaddling it in the kind of sumptuous atmospheres Sven has formed his reputation on. At first glance it may seem a little obvious, lazy even to wholesale rip another artist's distinctive sound, but upon repeat listens Sven's sincere and effectively heartfelt delivery make it an entirely worthwhile effort. In fact, those who still shirk the Burial albums as being under-produced or somehow inferior in construction, but had a soft spot for its cinematic mood and emotion, will find much to fall in love with here."
