Dario Zenker – Farrel EP [ILIAN007]

Dario’s debut on his own imprint is another example for his unique and mature sound. “10 AM” sounds like an earthquake, raw and dirty, it builds up so much energy that even Babensham starts to shake. “Farrel” on the other side is best described as deep break beat techno.

‘Black’, the newest member of the Romanian All Inn family, follows a tougher, more tech-lead sound and, keeping true to its roots, with its releases gracing wax, Black concentrates on warm, tough and heavy sounds.

Francois X – The Storm Cycle Ep [DRH031]

FRANCOIS X - The Storm Cycle EP (Front Cover)

François X returns to Deeply Rooted House  for his second record, On this 12″ everything starts of with “Firewall” an intense track with a steady groove and a nice synth build up, then “Another Riot” is more hypnotic and haunting. “Drummy Zone” is a deep abstract and magical journey to the land of Techno!

Ibex – Inner Light [IBEX002]

https://i0.wp.com/www.fitdetroit.com/covers/cover_image_1290453431_.jpg

Tony Ollivierra with a second release on his own Ibex Music label. The title track strikes hard with a flashback into acid house done up new millennium style. This track breathes of electronic bliss and madness stirring up memories of the past yet still clinging to the present and future hope of electronic music. Next track, “Ex animo”, picks up the pace and is an Ibex production in rare form. The flip side “H.B.B”, Human Beat Box, is a monster club banger and is expected to top charts worldwide. “Solidago” kicks off with a dreamy string chord that filters away into some interesting synthesizer work and arrangement.
