VA – Fachwerk 30 [FW030]
The end of summer 2013 the Berlin based Fachwerk label clock up its 30th release. The EP features solo productions by all key members of the label family (boss Mike Dehnert and pals Sascha Rydell and Roman Lindau) as well one collaborative effort that also features vocals from Sophia. Vocals are not something normally associated with the dub-wise techno label but listen in to ‘Fachwerk 30’ and you will see how well this crew have made them work within their usual concrete funk template. Above rugged, frayed synths and mutant, mutating melodies, Sophia’s echoing, shadowy voice lurks and imbues the thing with an uneasy sense of paranoia as the machines gurgle all around. Elsewhere, Mike Dehnert turns in the hiccupping techno loops of ‘FK’ complete with searching wide screen and super grainy and grimy synths, whilst Roman Lindau’s ‘The Yeah Thing’ is a cantering techno number with pinging kick drums and gallivanting metallic synths that melt your mind into a molten mess. Finally, Sascha Rydell’s ‘Palinka Girl’ is a heads down groove run through with icy hi hat ringlets and a raw, chunky drum funk plus all the usual shadowy dub textures we have come to love from this most focused and excellent label.

Deflecting – Panic EP [TGIPSY001]
The word “techno” has had many different connotations to date. For some — it’s a simple rhythm pattern created on a drum machine, for others — a beautiful legend from Detroit. Furthermore to some this is the future, while others perceive it only as the past. For the new Moscow-based label “Techno Gipsy” it is an uncanny amalgamation of all these feelings and emotions, which can only accommodate such a big word with only five letters. This the debut releasel with Roman Lindau and Unbalance remixing Deflecting.

VA – Fachwerk EP [FW022]
All three excellent Fachwerk bosses step up here with a beautiful red vinyl release of their latest EP entitled, erm, Fachwerk on their own label. Roman Lindau goes first with some scraping, cavernous and loopy sounds before teaming up with Mike Dehnert for a beautifully bouncy acid number. Mike appears on his own for track three, a stomping peak time banger before Sascha Rydell gets some great height into his fat assed percussive groove, ‘It Happened’.
VA – Inertia #1 [INERTIA001]
The first of 4×4 vinyl releases from the Ann Aimee compilation, Inertia. This opening volume includes cuts from Delta Funktionen, Peter Van Hoesen, Roman Lindau and Sawlin. Delta Funktionen goes deep and dramatic, Peter Van Hoesen offers up his usual dub-wise textures, whilst Lindau pairs icy hi-hats with a heavy stomping beat. Sawlin offers the trippiest techno with his delightfully disheveled ’Excipidial’ and closes out what is an essential.
