https://hipodrome.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/r-2451338-1284942328.jpeg?w=295

“Shake Your Body Down Spiraling” out of an original live studio jam, this track has been tearing up clubs this summer. Showing due respect for early Chicago acid house & first-wave Detroit techno,it reverberates with the influences and atmospheres experienced amidst the clubs and out-door parties of 89-94, yet sounds like the here & now.  “Twilight Another” edited live Discreet Unit session, flowing in and out of a huge pulse line, the track just sounds just like it should.

The first single from Model 500 in eleven years, and the first recorded by the new band line up is most definitely an event for R&S Records. Uptempo electro techno tracks from Juan Atkins with classic bass lines and robotic vocals.

Luke Hess feat. Omar S – Michigan Central Station EP [ECHOCORDCOLOUR012]

Michigan Central Station built in 1913 for the Michigan Central Railroad, was Detroit, Michigan’s passenger rail depot from its opening in 1913 until the discontinuance of Amtrak service on January 6, 1988. At the time of its construction, it was the tallest rail station in the world. The building, located in the Corktown district of Detroit still stands today, though it remains unoccupied. Restoration projects and plans have gone as far as the negotiation process, but none have come to fruition. Spread throughout the city of Detroit and its surrounding metropolitan area, the decay of once magnificent buildings during the industrial revolution and automobile era now cast a shadow of despair on a once flourishing city. These monuments of achievement now lay barren and forsaken by city government. Infrastructural restoration and city development are fundamental elements in Detroit’s recovery, and the recovery of cities worldwide. It is time for revival in our cities, but first, in our souls. The Michigan Central Station EP is a platform for this change.

Shed – The Traveller [OSTGUTCD014]

One of the most cherished artists in the Ostgut family, Shed returns with his sophomore album “The Traveller”.  It’s a more subtle and perhaps more confident record than Shedding The Past,  taking in austere dub minimalism (‘The Bot’), gauzy ambient interludes (‘STP 2′), imperious acid techno (‘My R-Class’), and, on closing track ‘Leave Things’, a kind of scuffed, ecstatic jungle reminiscent of Aphex Twin’s ‘Polynomial-C’. FACT’s Kiran Sande called up Pawlowitz in Berlin to discuss the LP, and the unlikely debt it owes to the Pet Shop Boys…”

Axel Boman – Holy Love [PAMPA004]

Hyperactive hotshot house hunk Axel Boman steps up and delivers a stunning debut EP for Pampa. Since many years an important force on the small but friendly Swedish club scene, and one third of the Studio Barnhus crew together with Kornél Kovács and Petter, Axel is as experienced a producer as his ideas are fresh. He is creating “worlds” rather than “tracks”, and on his “Holy Love” EP we are transported to three very different places indeed.
