Grey People – Trench Foot [CGI008]
Pluralist industrial jackin utopia that is Grey People from the crunchy, dissonant piano stomp of ”Trench Foot, and the equally crunchy, driving, new wave dirge of Moonstruck, to the cosmic drift and thump of ”Lock the Box” and the funked up FM slap-bass of ”Wild Intentions.”

Daniel Avery – The Remixes [PH042]
Culminating the cycle and international success of his debut album, Daniel Avery releases New Energy, a collection of remixes including six new reworks. Rødhåd proves why he’s the most exciting new name in techno by turning Drone Logic into a pulsing, peak-time behemoth whilst Silent Servant shows off his trademark, industrial tinged mastery on the previously ambient Spring 27. To complete this 12”, Volte-Face, owner of London’s vital experimental night BleeD, enters the production world with a beautiful and ecstatic re-imagining of Platform Zero.

Achterbahn D’ Amour – Odd Movements The Remixes [ASD024]
Achterbahn D’Amour’s machinefunk opus, “Odd Movements.” gets reworked with 4 sonically diverse remixes. Detroit don Marcellus Pittman kicks things off with a massive, unsettling flip of “Holy Roman Empire.” The Italian producer Chevel is up next with a virtuosic take on the LP’s title track. His cubist, artfully restrained version ends with over a minute of icy techno snap. Convextion, as well, chooses to hold back for maximum impact, infusing the moody “Passagen” with subdued electro bounce. Finally, SW. imbuesthe duo’s “Konigstr” with dubbed-out breakbeat pressure, occasionally allowing the original acid line to seep through a skittering rave rhythm.

Psychic TV – Alien Be-In Remix EP [DE079]
Dark Entries Editions is venturing into new waters with a remix EP of Psychic TV’s classic song “Alien Be-In”. Psychic TV was formed by Genesis P-Orridge and Peter Christopherson after the breakup of Throbbing Gristle in 1981. “Alien Be-In” was written in early 1989 on an E-mu Emax Sampler and an Alesis MMT-8 sequencer. Vocal samples were taken from a tape Germs drummer Don Bolles sent to Genesis. A didgeridoo rides throughout the song, heavily modulated by a Gristleizer creating a hypnotic effect. Comes with remixes from Fred Giannelli, Silent Servant and a collaborative remix of Silent Servant and John Tejada.

Paranoid London – Paranoid London [PDONLP001]
The mysterious, no-holds-barred combo Paranoid London has decided to put out a double album containing much of their previously released material, alongside a smattering of previously unheard cuts (including a collaboration with Detroit legend DJ Genesis). The hard-to-find classics still sparkle – check the brilliantly sparse-but-heavy “Paris Dub 1” (with regular vocalist Paris Brightledge) and ragged “Transmission 5” (featuring a killer spoken vocal from Mutado Pintado) – while the new cuts are thankfully up to similarly high standard. Here is some more repetitive, machine bass music for DJs to play loud & dancers to freak to.
Juanpablo – The Hideout [FRV017]
Frigio label founder Juanpablo is back, this time with a full five track mini-LP. Darkness gathers above the needle’s edge as the Colombian artist delivers the shadow strewn The Hideout. Abstraction is balanced against dancefloor clout across this quintet of underworld electronics. Rhythms curve and bend, scattering into the blackened chasms of “Chrome Light” and “Shadow’s Color,” before resurfacing into the light of “Indumorg.” The title piece burns with a slow intensity. Sinister coils of Acid drip, skies bruise and ash rains before “They Watching You” closes.
