The last few years were quite good for the electronic music world and again in 2019 there was a lot a quality music coming out and revitalization of electro, broken beat, new beat and EBM continued. Looking at the situation locally, unfortunately 2019 feels like a step back for the Romanian scene after three years of growth and development. The three pillars of the Romanian electronic music are the same Borusiade, Cosmin TRG and Khidja and very little besides them.

Romanian Artists to Watch in 2019
After a good 2017 in electronic music, the trend continued in 2018 with more electro, broken beat, new beat, industrial and EBM, with new artists jumping on this train, so I’m curious where this will go in 2019.
On the local scene, in Romania, things are evolving in a slightly slower pace, but still in a good direction.

Lektronikumuz – Roll Over All [10027042]
The Austrian techno label Petrol Dollar has released an EP from Romanian Lektronikumuz. Lektronikumuz is one of Romania’s finest techno djs and one of the last consistently playing out quality Detroit techno. The “Roll Over All” EP consists of 7 tracks, from which clearly stand out the two versions of “Roll Over All”, a tribal techno cut that has it inspiration in DJ 3000 and Motech.
Hipodrome Podcast 009 – Lektronikumuz
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.
