Elektrobopacek – Untitled [HOTJAM005]
More rough analogue business from Switzerland, this time coming from Hot Jam with a 6 tracks EP signed by Elektrobopacek.
Random XS – The Return [SHIP032]
Here’s something of a surprise treat for techno fans: a first 12″ in 20 years from legendary Dutch acid techno combo Random XS. The two tracks featured were originally recorded, but never released, in the ’90s, and have been brought back to life by Random XS in collaboration with other producers. “Errant”, which was co-produced by fellow Djax-Up Beats graduate Binaural, is a spacey affair, with undulating acid lines working in tandem with woozy chords, bubbling electronic melodies and clattering analogue percussion. Lost Trax lends a hand on flipside cut “Truant”, which explores deeper techno territory via relentless rhythms, percussive builds, darkly ambient chords and deep space electronics.
Jared Wilson – Idea Of A Deep State EP [SRTX010]
Super Rhythm Trax serves up a trio of 1990 style, rave-era British acid house/techno tributes from Jared Wilson. The three tracks could be considered riffs on a theme, as each – in different ways – reminded us of Orbital’s early work. Choose between the bold acid lines and jack-track beats of “How Deep”, the acid melodies and “Belfast” style chords of “Plate Mining”, and the pleasingly alien acid-funk of “Idea of A Deep State”.
Fred P – Rawax Aira Series Vol.3 [AIRA003]
Fred P aka Black Jazz Consortium’s musical set phrase isn’t following new trends. Fred is often simply melting shuffling percussions with elementary melodies. but he does it in a sense that the heavy used and abused phrase ”deepness” finally gets a fresh truthfully new meaning.
Laurent X – Machines [TX163]
Made by Mark Imperial & Vinnie Devine as Laurent X, ‘Machines’ was conceived in a 16 track studio with an unquestionable Roland TB-303, but also a TR-808, TR-909, a Juno 106, some FX and a bucket of rib tips. According to Mark Imperial, he and his friends (specially Vinnie Devine) had a mad fun playing with gear.
Sebastian Swarm / Lost SoundBytes – From Sci-Fi to Lo-Fi [LOD006]
Land Of Dance presents a journey inside analog machines and science fiction movies. Two producers from different countries had split the release with their sounds and their musical attitudes. Lost SoundBytes is a Brussels Based young producer that develops an haptic music, diving sometimes into cryptic and anxious foggy areas through analog materials experimentations, as drum machines & synthetisers like Poly 61, AcidLab Bassline 3 , Wardolf Blofeld. Sebastian Swarm comes from Glasgow his three tracks are full lo-fi acid music, imprinted by a cosmic sight and chicago house’ quotes.

DJ Overdose – Housejam Freaker [UTTU052]
DJ Overdose heads over to Unknown To The Unknown for a spot of techno-jackin’. Thrillingly, “Housejam Freaker” combines fizzing, upbeat machine drum rhythms, deep space chords and wild, sped-up Motor City electronics to create something that sounds like the bastard offspring of Jeff Mills, Drexciya and Phuture. Willie Burns provides the obligatory remix, offering something that retains the original’s energy whilst increasing the beauty factor tenfold. Elsewhere, he wanders into deep acid territory on the straight-up jacker “Dikzak”, and delivers a surprisingly funky dose of intergalactic electro on the cheery “Vinca”. A string of handy locked grooves complete a tasty package.

Legowelt – Dark Days 1992-1997 [BAKKDD001]
Those familiar with the Strange Life label operated by Danny Wolfers will know it’s rife with CDr material worthy of the vinyl format. Whilst our personal favourite (the bizarre Portopia by Wolfers alias Satomi Taniyama) remains looked over by labels, Berceuse Heroique were responsible for a quite sumptuous double LP edition of Smackos album The Age Of Candy Candy earlier this year. Now local Den Haag crew BAKK have got their hands on 2004 Strange Life album Dark Days for an equally classy triple LP edition. Wolfers fans not familiar with this album will immediately fall in love with Dark Days, thanks to the signature blend of goofy track titles (“Lego Resistance”, “An Obnoxious Affair On Tape”) and music that veers from soaring, synth vistas to grotty techno via cold, primitive electronics and more.

Next up on Tomorrow Is Now, Kid! is an EP from Rutilance Recordings owner, DJ Steaw. The French artist crafted four sturdy tracks on this fresh EP. It is a perfect blend between Chicago and New York House, with a big splash of Acid throughout the disc. The hypnotising percussion and grimy sounds take you to new, unforeseen places. Keywords for best describing this 12″ are, beyond any doubt, deep and vigorous. Enjoy these four definite killers in the club.
Richi Ratchet – The First Episode! [AAACID003]
AAACID003 is the second EP from Amir Alexander’s Richi Ratchet Moniker. The major difference in the work of Richie and his twin Brother Jack Ingoff is the clever use of vocals. Singlehandedly writing new chapter in the Acid House Manual with off kilter polyrhythms, odd time signatures, and unconventional tongue and cheek topics, Amir through his AAACID label continues to go from strength to strength as he seeks to refine and progress the artform of Acid Jack.
