Conforce – Black Stroke [MODELSISM024]

After his brilliant previous “CCCP EP” Conforce strikes back on Modelisme with another great release titled “Black Stroke EP”. A side “Black Stroke” original is an hymnic detroitish tune, the swingy groove and the right strings, provided from an high sensitivity.  Guests on this ep, the excellent Kink & Neville Watson worked out an old school acid house remix with a typical chicago vein as they do know to do. To complete “Pretty far from here” is a superb old school house track, subtle deep funky sounds on raw beats with a sensual mood.

Quince & Benny Rodrigues – Novum [SMALLVILLE19]

Quince & Benny Rodrigues - Novum image

Amsterdam’s duo Quince and Benny Rodrigues evolve an outstanding synthesis of a classic Detroit Techno Vibe and newest sound technology. With a bass blowing beast turning into deep space the A Side is created for dancefloor’s magic at its best. Based on strings, chords and 303 Sweet Potatoes on the B Side is a deeply kicking Detroit Electro tune.

Echologist – Slow Burn [SFV06]

SLOW BURN (SIGHA REMIX)

Echologist presents his second release on Steadfast Records. The original mix of is a lush slice of ambient techno that immediately sucks you into its subby atmospheric realm and gently lulls you into a netherworld where chords and pads playfully bounceoff one another. The b-side features a steller remix from London’s rising techno/dubstep talent Sigha.

listen

Echologist – Slow Burn [SFV06]

Raiz – Raiz [H&V004]

RAIZ feat SILENT SERVANT - Raiz

Sexy and utterly deadly techno from Vangelis and Vidal Vargas aka Raíz, backed with a serious edit from label head Silent Servant aka John Mendez. The duo’s original mix is a stealthy Latin shuffler offsetting slinky 909 percussion with a bumbum bass slide that makes our pasty asses want to dance. On the flip Silent Servant reinforces the Latin kink with a bronzed bass pound but still manages keeps the subtle shuffle intact.

The Third Man – Messier 66 [ART-DDS02]

THE THIRD MAN - Messier 66 image

Toby Leeming aka The Third Man has built a solid reputation that’s set to get a boost with his first high profile release dropping on ART’s Dance Division series. ‘Messier 66’ sticks to a tried and tested formula of Basic Channel chord delays and kicking, UR-inspired 909s, but delivers it with such a deadly conviction and electrifying execution that no dancefloor is safe in its presence.

Matthias Reiling – Das Gespenst Von Altona [GLGLP01]

DAS GESPENST VON ALTONA (LP)

The first LP on Giegling is the debut album for Matthias Reiling (1/2 of Session Victim), called “Das Gespenst von Altona” (The ghost of Altona) – Altona is a district of Hamburg. Going from house to hip/triphop, this guy shows that he’s got the funk – and lots of groove to share.

Sbtrkt – 2020 [MATH07]

SBTRKT -  2020 image

Brainmath cut a layer deeper with a properly good looking double pack from SBTRKT. Landing just ahead of his Grizzly hookup with Sinden, these four tracks feature the masked one exercising his moodier house and garage inclinations. ‘2020’ shuts the airlock and pressurizes yer headspace with sweeping jazzy chords and a streamlined broken house swing finished with that special SBTRKT lacquer.

sbtrkt – 2020

Brainmath cut a layer deeper with a properly good looking double pack from SBTRKT. Landing just ahead of his Grizzly hookup with Sinden, these four tracks feature the masked one exercising his moodier house and garage inclinations. ‘2020’ shuts the airlock and pressurises yer headspace with sweeping jazzy chords and a streamlined broken house swing finished with that special SBTRKT lacquer. ‘Jamlock’ follows with heavily filtered tech-house with a mongrel blooded flux of UK garage infected swing and Berlin style reserve, keeping the funk tucked tight in the pocket. Meanwhile the deep house mystery of ‘One Week Over’ opens up to reveal a blend of Actress-alike swampy compressions and semi-lucid melodies and finally ‘Pause For Thought’ applies lolling chord sequences to brittle 2-step rhythm and trickling UR style jazz techno keys. The execution is second to none, maybe a little too plastic or digitised for some but made to sound ultra-fresh and oh-so-clean for everyone else. Killah!

Mike Dehnert – Part 2 [FW012-1]

MIKE DEHNERT - Part 2 image

‘Part 2’ is essentially a status report on the last 12 months or so in Mike Dehnert’s world. He re-evaluates and modifies tracks from three previous releases, together with a handful of new cuts in a set of tidy versions for the digital crew. Both ‘Umluft’ cuts hit heavy with that stern German/Detroit flavour while ‘WH1′ and WH2’ serve perpetual techno revisions from the ‘Poutres EP’ and elsewhere we get killers from the ‘Dico’ EP.

cub – C U 1 (UST Mix)

Anonymous black label warehouse aces from the Cub label. We can’t divulge the identities of these operators for fear of some darkside repercussions, but if we were to spill the beans, a lot of techno heads would be getting moist right now. The A-side ‘CU1’ seems to have taken the current dubstep/Funky mantra of “reduce the tempo and up the groove” to heart, creating a snaky slow 118bpm techno rhythm that slithers along like it’s caught in a strong headwind. The drag effect is accentuated by a grumbling Belgian bassline reminding of Peter van Hoesen’s ‘Trusted EP’ and dread reverb treatments making for an addictively strong cut. On the flip we get the UST remix, rubbing out the kinks and rolling with a fuller 4/4 pattern. This is a must have 12″ for any fans of the Horizontal Ground or Sandwell District labels. Highly Recommended!!!
