VA – Textures I – II [CCRT001B]
Concrete unleash a series of Textures, representing their diverse and hugely popular events. On this release we have four tracks by Bleak, Dario Zenker, Abdulla Rashim and Behzad & Amarou.
Philippe Petit – Give / Take [DMT001]
The idea behind Decision Making Theory is to propose some stripped down no-nonsense techno, aimed directly at the dancefloor. DMT’s first one-sided 33 rpm colored vinyl release consists of two tracks by Knotweed Records owner Philippe Petit. ‘Give’ starts with some spaced-out chords and then shifts into a dubby Detroit inspired floor filler. The second track, ‘Take’, is a much darker heavy peak-time affair aimed at blowing the roof off!
VA – Warehouse Sessions Vol. 1 [DL003]
The newest offering from Luke Hess’ Deeplabs imprint: Warehouse Sessions Volume 1. All four producers on duty here keep the vibe deep and unique, jacking at times while laid back and cosmic at others. Four tracks with a groove firmly rooted in early to mid-nineties Detroit warehouse techno, the results mix analog instruments and machines with a dose of atmospheric dub.
Haron – Smoke & Mirrors EP [TAPE002]
Second release from Amsterdam based label Tape Records. The Smoke & Mirrors EP offers an unique insight into the adventurous mind of Haron, a young and talented Amsterdam-based producer. His debut, best described as strongly layered, boundless, diverse and melodic, is carefully crafted with the utmost devotion.
