Orlando Voorn – Unpredictable Love [PPH007-6]

Orlando Voorn`s Original of “Unpredictable Love” is an great melodic and soulful Detroit techno track. The remix on the flip is the interpretation of The Analog Roland Orchestra, who impressed us again with his remarkable musicianship and soundwork.

Erell Ranson – Everything Needs To Be Clear [ADEPTH004]

https://i0.wp.com/imagesaws.juno.co.uk/300/CS415331-01A-MED.jpg

This 4 track EP begins with Erell’s original version of ‘Everything Needs to Be Clear’. Its combination of gentle chords with electro beats is the foundation of the musical ideas explored throughout this release. The second track, ‘So strange to explain’, is deeper and an adventurous fusion of dark, intense tones, swirling beats and insistent percussion. On the flipside, Canadian Rennie Foster remixes the title track, and delivers a fine piece of modern dancefloor techno which respects the key elements of title track. Erell’s ‘Sandcastle’ closes the EP, and its sophisticated yet punchy bassline and fragile synths recall some classic early ‘90s productions.

Robert Hood – Alpha / The Family [MPM011]

HOOD, Robert - Alpha (James Ruskin remix) (Front Cover)

The exceptional music mechanic Robert Hood is firmly back in business for 2011, kick-starting the new decade with more M-Plant excellence. James Ruskin takes a break from an impressive release offensive on his own Blueprint label to remix ‘Alpha’, the first single that was taken from ‘Omega’, Robert Hood’s concept album of last year. The remix adds a touch of Ruskin magic to this A-side. While maintaining the essence of Hood’s initial track, James provides a fresh outlook that is sure to be as well received as the original. Over on the B-side Hood delivers a brand new track called ‘The Family’. This is classic Robert Hood with its unrelenting rhythm, powerful bassline and a good dose of the funk. While most of us struggle through the cold, this will be firing up dancefloors the world over.

Aril Brikha – Deeparture In Time (Revisited) [AOVCD001]

https://i0.wp.com/www.gridface.com/reviews/images/aril-brikha-deeparture-in-time-revisited.jpg

Aril Brikha will release “Deeparture In Time – Revisited” in celebration of the 10 year anniversary of his 1999/2000 released Album on Transmat. This also kicks off his own label “Art Of Vengeance”. Next to the remastered originals of “Deeparture In Time”, the release features a 2nd CD with 10 previously unreleased tracks that were created between 1995 and 1999. All of them take us on a time travel to the 90ies, with a sound still prevalent in modern productions, as pure as can be. This one’s for the lovers of the early Detroit Techno with that unique Aril Brikha twist, and all those who’d like to discover it: One Chord To Rule Them All.

Jeff Mills – The Beatmaster [AX057]

https://i0.wp.com/imagescdn.juno.co.uk/300/CS416205-01A-MED.jpg

The third installment to “The Good Robot” series from Jeff Mills. This record focuses on the ways humans interact with machines to create anything, even something as simple as a drum pattern – machines can be precise on their own, or altered in the way humans can program and utilize their functions.

The Analog Roland Orchestra – Timespaceroom [PH0066]

https://i0.wp.com/images.junostatic.com/300/CS414942-01A-MED.jpg

The Analog Roland Orchestra now join the Polymorph family. Raw analog Detroit techno with the dark atmosphere is what these chaps do and they do it well! The original favors a slowly evolving powerful hybrid of Techno, while on the flipside the Reshape mix of “Timespaceroom” is much more on the tougher side of things with a bold bassline, spooky voices and tough chords.

Kirk Degiorgio & Ian O’Brien – Promenade Eleven EP [ART-NR2]

DEGIORGIO, Kirk/IAN O'BRIEN - Promenade Eleven

“Promenade Eleven” is a reverse-engineered remake of “Night On The Promenade” which originally appeared in limited quantities on the New Religion label in 2006 under the name “Super-A-Loof”. Promenade Eleven (Original Mix) adhere’s faithfully to the original arrangement but has been re-recorded and totally remixed from the ground-up for a modern club sound. Further to this release are two vastly different remixes – from label owner Kirk Degiorgio and The Third Man.

Hipodrome Podcast 009 – Lektronikumuz

https://hipodrome.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/hipodrom009.jpg

It’s time for the first podcast from the new year and we bring you a very special session from a vinyl devoted person. Lektronikumuz, Remus Miron in his real name, is a true defender and keeper of the vinyl, one of the last of his kind in Romania. Remus is playing exclusively vinyl and he is, in my opinion, the only dj still playing regularly quality Detroit techno in Romania.
