Alek Stark – Lights In The Horizon [TRAJECTORY1005]
Alek Stark teams-up with some of electro’s freshest talent for this potential electro hit. The original version here is a full-on workout to get down to, with agitated vocal and hard beats; while next in line is the totally sublime ‘I Can See the Lights’ featuring Victoria Lukas of Zerkalo (Heinrich Mueller & Victoria Lukas). Not to be over-shadowed however are two stealthily executed reworks from Proto 70 and Jauzas the Shining – most definitely forward thinking electro for the body and mind.

Hipodrome Podcast 006 – Mick Wills
Probably you already found out that we are preparing for the 1 year celebration and our special guest is Mick Wills [Nation, Minimal Rome, Gigolo Records – Stuttgart, DE]. This will be his second visit to Sibiu (after 5 years) and his first in Cluj-Napoca. Many words can be said about the man who started his djing career almost 25 years ago and has released his first EP back in 2001, on International Deejay Gigolo Records, but we leave the words to the only three Romanians with releases on Gigolo. Instead, we present an exclusive dj mix from Mick recorded live in Jena, Germany, on July 24th this year.
Enjoy and “Dance like nobody is watching”.
Sumerian Fleet – Sumerian Fleet [CWCS04]
Alden Tyrell and Mr. Pauli invade the West Coast of Holland in their Sumerian Fleet guise, hand-stamped red label stylez! This is quite simply one of the best new school dark wave records we’ve heard, utilizing the skills of one master producer – Alden Tyrell – and the infamous Mr. Pauli, to create powerful tracks. ‘Jenseitflugsmachine’ is a filthy big speed freak anthem, leather duds on, top off. ‘Smack Is Back’ is grungier, scared shitless with ghoulish synths and goth punk bass. ‘Blech Erkrankung’ is spiky industrial funk that just begging for some agitated yelping over the top.
Space Dimension Controller – Temporary Thrillz [RS1008]
VA – Bleep43 EP 001 [BLEEP43EP001]
New record label Bleep43 Recordings will be launched on 1st October. The first release is an EP with tracks from ERP aka Convextion and London’s PLANT43, Orphan and Jo Johnson.
Model 500 – OFI / Huesca [RS1006]
The first single from Model 500 in eleven years, and the first recorded by the new band line up is most definitely an event for R&S Records. Uptempo electro techno tracks from Juan Atkins with classic bass lines and robotic vocals.

Automatic Tasty – In It For The Money EP [LDR006]
Lunar Disko present their 6th release, a fine five tracker from young Irish producer Automatic Tasty. ‘I’ve missed the last bus home’ delivers a cracking electro acid jam, peppered with punchy Alden Tyrell style edits and elegant synthwork. On a slower electro jacking tip ‘I Can See You House From Here’ works out crisp 707 patterns with a nod to Drexciya. The most affecting track here must be the final cut of 606 & 101 interplay ‘Autonomous System’, undoubtedly owing to Japanese Telecom releases, but executed with a heartfelt melancholy requiring the attention of any electro fiends. The release comes with a free CD with 3 extra tracks from Automatic Tasty when you buy the record from Lunar Disko.

Boomkat product review for:
various / spatial disco – Spatial Disco 2
We missed out on the first volume, but we’re certainly not making the same mistake with ‘Spatial Disco 2’! It’s the second in a series of library records compiled by the Austrian Electunes label and entirely drawn from the legendary Tele Music catalogue, this time focusing on the electronic productions of Saveur Mallia between 1981 and 1984, most specifically the ‘Cosmosynthetic’, ‘Percussions Modernes’ and ‘Automation’ albums. The styles rove between early Art Of Noise or Arthur Baker alike electro on ‘Smurfissimo’ to Robotnick-esque jaunts such as ‘New Wave Sequence’ and urgently uptempo breakdancers like ‘Robot Scratch’. Our favourites have to be the Italo propulsion of ‘Macadam Locomotion’ and the atmospheric bassline arpeggios of ‘Rectangle Astral’. A must for anyone who got a kick out of the Tangerine Traume compilation or fans of Riechmann, John Carpenter etc.
