Johannes Volk – Interstellar Visions [EXP001]

STL – Flying Objects [SOMETHING015]
Detroit beat down & Chicago oldschool house inspired house cuts. Eight tracks and four locked grooves of raw and diverse House music from the inimitable STL. Constantly changing the game, he nods to KMS style rave with the nasty synth licks of ‘Dark Energy’, while ‘Like This’ nods to earliest Chicago House with wickedly ’80s sounding stabs followed by two minutes of rave-starting air raid sirens. Getting trickier, ‘Don’t Follow Me’ is a pure and deadly piece of drum programing magic.
Aaron FIT – Bleep43 Podcast 191

Solid techno grooves infused with dark dubby atmospherics and cosmic influenced rhythms.
Mark Broom & James Ruskin – Erotic Misery [BP031]
James Ruskin and Mark Broom follow up their previous and serious selling outing (BP029 No Time Soon) with a stonking slab of the dark techno stuff. ‘Erotic Misery’ ploughs a heavy 10 minute groove of dry humping bass throbs with a payload of acrid synthline dissonance while ‘The Future That Was’ hankers for classic dark techno memes with a dirty, pipe-rolled bass sound and Millsian ambient drones. ‘Black Lines’ is far slinkier, kinked with swinging drum patterns and stealthy synth arrangements.
Omar S & Kai Alce – Jive Time [FXHEAD]
New Omar S & Kai Alce collaboration. Hypnotic, dreamy synth lines with lush warm acid and loose, light percussion. Quite crisp and hi-fi in comparison to the Detroit grit we know these two can both pump out.
Jolka – Five [SECT06R]
Sect receives the awe-inspiring accolade of remixes of Jolka’s magnificent ‘Five’ from two of the most trustworthy guardians of the craft, Surgeon & Silent Servant.
