Jeff Mills – Exhibitionist 2 – Part 2 [AX068]
The second installment of 12” EP from “Exhibitionist 2” DVD+CD. All the tracks are created by Jeff Mills during the session in the Studio Mix in the DVD, where the audience can see and learn how Jeff Mills produces tracks.
BNJMN – Skur EP [J101]
Dutch powerhouse Creme Organization started a brand new label entitled Jericho One. The man behind the first EP is Berlin based Brit BNJMN. Opener ‘Skur’ is a hurried techno jam with frosty textures and bleak industrial vibes. It sets the vibe for the total feeling of the EP which is way more floor facing compared to BNJMN’s earlier productions. This is a truly out there and wild EP that once again finds BNJMN experimenting on the outer fringes of the techno world in his own unique, distorted way.
M//R – No Tag No Food EP [DTLSND005]
M//R aka Billy Werner is back with a strong bundle of four tracks, steadily making his mark on the scene of contemporary techno. This record is a proper electronic weapon, from the slowed down pounding impulse of total burner ‘No Tag No Food’ to the suspended rhythm of atmospheric ‘Idyll’ which brings the listener into a gravity-free dimension.
Klankman – Klankman [TH002]
The Greek / Dutch label Tar Hallow sets on after the label’s maiden voyage by Super Unknown. More poundy basement tracks as we dig them by Bunker alleviate Klankman.

Cardopusher – Manipulator [BNR146]
Cardopusher delivers his first album for the Boysnoize label entitled ‘Manipulator’. The album is a 10 track hardware composed record inspired by early rave, 90s EBM/industrial and lo-fi acid house/techno blended together with modern production touches. Perfect for peak times or late hours this record pays homage to underground music.
Kosel – Rename EP [ROPR001]
Its the very first release of a new polish record label – Rotten Periodicity. The record constitutes as well Kosel’s debut. True lofi character and style. Tough, lo-fi techno for the post-industrial underground.
Klanken – Drie / Twee [DEEWEE002]
passEnger – Hybrid Science EP [TABR032]
The Tabernacle imprint continues on its mission to provide dusty and lo-fi excursions through soulful techno. This time courtesy of Turin’s Andrea Di Maggio aka passEnger. “Correlated Motions” is a dark peak time affair of metallic reverberations and sinister atmospherics. “Protong Genetics” captures you in all its deepness complete with otherworldly oscillations and emotive circuitry. On the flip there’s “Epta Waves” which gets on a Drexciyan electro tip, convincingly and brilliantly while final track “Uranus Unknown” features the lushest analogue strings that will absolutely hypnotise and draw you in unlike anything else you’ve heard recently.

Simoncino – Amazon Atlantis [CRLP012]
Simoncino is back with another full length album, Amazon Atlantis, on Creme Organization. His vintage sound is one full of real emotion, and that is the case with this new full length. Simoncio turns on his machines and makes music every day, just for pleasure. Every so often he feels the time is right to release a new collection of material, and that time is now. There is no objective or particular message behind the album, it was simply conjured up using the Akai S 900 and the Emu Emax I drum machines as well as a Roland JX8P, a Korg PolySix a Ensoniq ESQ1 and a Yamaha DX7. Made at different times over an extended period of time in his home studio in Perugia, Italy, the album features two collaborations. The first is with Legowelt, “who besides being one of my favourite artists is a close friend” and the other is with Vincent Floyd, “a true legend whose records ‘Cruising and ‘I Dream You’ have left their mark on my life.”
Andreas Gehm – Cosmic Interrail Vol.1 [SBOX001]
Who better to inaugurate your label than Andreas Gehm? Simple, no-one. Glasgow’s Schrodinger’s Cat is sinking claws and teeth into vinyl with five tracks of blistering TB303 goodness from the Cologne man. Mr Gehm is in fine form as he serves up a quintet of very different cuts. From the warbling wonderment of “Blind Eyes” to squawking darkness of “Jak the Floor”, this EP shows how talented this machine musician is. “Can You Hear Me Girl” is jilted lover, stalker house; beady eyes peering into misted windows material. The Elec Pt 1 hood is donned for the dirtiest track of the 12″. Grimy claps are further polluted by bending acid lines in a work overflowing with violence. Out of the leftfield comes the finale. “Systems Go” throbs with rumbling rhythms, a bleeped melody keeping time as drum machines overheat and circuitry melts.
Asok – Count Zero EP [MISTRESS006]
Strong records by Asok with emotive techno tracks that are paying respect to the early Detroit techno releases.
Chupacabras – I See Light [GFEP001]
All the tracks on I See Light are culled from the Forgotten tape released on Go! Finger last year with two Chupacabras cuts backed by remixes from Legowelt and Willie Burns. Those two names are probably reason enough for many to investigate but don’t make the mistake of glossing over the wonderfully strange original version of ”I See Light” from Chupacabras, which pairs strange wind instrument with an insistent raw techno groove.
Deep Space Orchestra – Memory LP Sampler [UOW007]
Deep Space Orchestra present their debut LP ‘Memory’, released on their own label Use of Weapons and is a perfect culmination of their vast array of influences and inspirations. As a precursor to that set, they’ve delivered this tasty sampler 12″, featuring a pair of album cuts, and a couple of notable remixes from Lord of the Isles and Neville Watson.
LC12 – Isabella [PITCHDOWN001]
The first release comes from label owners LC12 (formerly Rumore and Orphidal), inviting us on a journey into their musical worlds. Textured and melodic, these club focused tracks span all things deep and pumping whilst simultaneously lifting the listener to a higher place. Backed by a dreamy machine workout remix from Leonid.
Flabaire – Esoteric Audio Research EP [ORG010]
To celebrate our 10th vinyl release , we welcome on board the young and talented parisian Flabaire , who’s one of the man behind D-KO records and member of Secret Value Orchestra .
VA – Rhythms Of The Pacific Volume 2 [ROTP002]
