London artist, producer, DJ, label head and leader of a new generation of high-speed ravers, SHERELLE announces her eagerly-awaited debut EP, 160 Down The A406. Known for her work as a pioneering, high-octane DJ, the EP is the first time SHERELLE has officially released her own productions. 

The EP title track “160 Down The A406" is today available to stream and download. Fusing Sherelle’s love of high speed sounds with a weaving melody,  the song is a left turn from an artist known for high intensity sets, finding subtlety within speed, and the sound of one of modern dance music’s brightest mind’s subverting expectations.

SHERELLE kicked off 2021 with a New Balance campaign and a hotly anticipated set for Fabric with Hooversound artist Tim Reaper. Her residency on BBC Radio 1 has seen her champion cutting-edge dance music to a mainstream audience, whilst her Essential Mix was named the station’s best of the year in 2020; whilst Hooversound - the label she runs with longtime friend Apple Music Presenter Naina - has carved out a reputation for the freshest outputs of UK club culture through releases featuring Special Request, Tim Reaper, Hyroglifics, Sinistarr and Deft. 

The 160 Down The A406 announcement follows Sherelle’s news of the creation of BEAUTIFUL, a space for black and LGBTQI+ artists to give their music a home.

If 2020 was a break-out year for Sherelle, seeing her win countless awards and grow respect amongst her peers, 2021 is the year of her truly establishing herself as a new age icon in UK dance music and beyond.

Back To Basics (Part 1)

Track Ten

Juan Atkins and Moritz von Oswald – the two indispensable protagonists of the Electric Garden – plug back into the wilderness. Transport – the new full length effort of the Borderland collaborative project – brings together a new set of studio-refined sequences aimed at colonizing some of the dark energy that pulsates through those areas that are thoroughly electrified, even if not ‘on the grid’.

The Detroit-Berlin axis triangulates to a third point which, like the atomic particle that lives in two places at once, flickers between a form of techno-charged ambience and a futuristic club-jazz which cannot be broken down into constitutive parts. Borderland remains caught in a state of enraptured stillness, invisibly moving between every
imagined future for electronic sound making. The result: a font from which springs serene and exhilarating musical ideas that vibrate with refined energy for sixty seconds in every minute.

Boris Bunnik goes under many aliases. Numerous smaller projects, some faceless projects but mostly known and well respected for his Conforce project. As Versalife he found his way to the Frustrated Funk and Clone familia. His recent LP entitled Encrypted Mind showed Versalife going into a more downtempo experimental soundscape terrain. Soul of the Automaton however tends to lean more on beat orientated electro broken rhythms, still playable for dj’s who are looking to cut up their house and techno sets with something a little more emotive and provocative. With ominous bass, analog rhythms and icey sophisticated atmospherics Boris shapes his trademark crisp production style. His music often tends to go into technical directions but he is certainly able to intertwine the right human elements, reminding you that this isn’t purely machine music. This is soulful techno, electro with subtle ambient elements and IDM echoes, touching the more experimental side of music here and there. Bunnik has not completely severed his links with the past though but he is unafraid of the future. This is again immersive, contemporary and emotive music constructed on the West Coast of Holland in the harbour city of Rotterdam. Real beauty doesn't come from the unavoidable music industry promotion cosmetics. Real music should reach your soul, and can only be explored through direct transmitted waveforms.

ABOUT Lemonella:

Born and shaped in South Africa, Lemonella likes to explore ways of unifying the polarities of experience and honouring the full spectrum of emotional potentiality through music. So we move between the upbeat and the downtechno, the jingle and the jazz, the this and the that, the playful and the purposeful, the delicate and the dense. 

Maybe you’re moving around a busy city and there are a lot of dead-looking faces on the train… maybe you are dancing on a mountain or sitting in a room making little figurine animals out of clay…  maybe you’re on a boat out at sea, wearing a sailor’s cap and swaying into the sunset, or maybe you only go on such voyages in your mind… whatever worlds you travel to the music is here to accompany you, to add a little skip in your step, a smile to your lips and a kiss on the heart as you navigate through the altogether lush and dreamy and terrifying jungles of your experience.

Release info:
"The title track boasts a rich assortment of shimmering synths and deep pads, a piano-esque as lead line and effervescent squiggles that embellish the song's simple arpeggio. With its sweet, heads-in- the-clouds feel and beatific river, it's hard not to be reminded of the deeper, dreamier end of Detroit city. It's not magic, it's not bionic, it's not mystic, it's Funkadelic.

Davidovitch reserves most of his soft-focus vibe for "Le Mode." Following the relative flamboyance, it comes off as somewhat muted, with emotive pads and simple, densely packed keyboard trickles repeating over a descending bassline. It's also a most immersive track, full of ebbs and flows, with a subtle suppleness that's innately appealing."

It's our 9th birthday! We have selected 17 exclusive tracks and hopefully you will like them as much as we do. // Renesanz team

Beck and Rius - Phosphatic Acid (Original Mix)

dub stuff

Prolific Dutch producer Boris Bunnik wears several hats: Conforce, Silent Harbour and Vernon Felicity, but some of his most exciting music is produced under the Versalife alias where he delves deep into the electro sound. He makes his debut here for Leeds institution 20/20 Vision with "Machine Life", taking the classic electro sound further but with a modern twist. 

We're going deep underwater on the moody title track, before coming up for air via the soulful android funk of "MO5". On the flip, the eerie dystopian themes continue on the sombre "Monospace" and the seething reductionist electro-bass of "Axion".

Versalife - Monospace (Snippet)

Versalife’s second release for 20/20 Vision sees Dutch producer Boris Bunnik aka Conforce return with another slab of signature electro.

'Clandestine Development’ serves up dark tones and melodies layered within insistent electro beats and growling bass, that sounds huge on big room systems. ‘Aegis’ delivers a double dose of mechanical funk, played over atmospheric strings and auditory acid delights. 

On the B side ‘Lamba’ continues to impress with a moody laidback bass line holding the groove down over a solid rhythm & dystopian keys. Wrapping things up the title track 'Asimov's Code' plays out like war drums from space pounding away after a blissful intro of building synths.

Versalife - Aegis  (Snippet)

Positive Energy Forever

This @DarkScienceElectro premiere is for @conforce (aka Versalife) on @trustvienna

‘Cosmic Language’ is Versalife‘s third release for TRUST. This time Versalife explores the use of universal codes in electronic music across four tracks that distil classic and modern electro, analogue techno, and experimental bass music into one of TRUST‘s most eclectic releases to date.

Versalife is the project of Rotterdam-based artist Boris Bunnik, which complements his various aliases such as Conforce, Hexagon, Silent Harbour, and Vernon Felicity with a unique perspective on contemporary Electro music. Only in his early 30s, Bunnik has already contributed a sprawling discography to the electronic music canon over the past decade, spanning styles from techno to electronic dub and ambient across 15 albums and dozens of EPs for imprints such as Delsin, Rushhour, Echocord, Clone, Cultivated Electronics, and 20:20 Vision. The 12” version of ‘Cosmic Language’ ships in new TRUST label sleeves designed by dextro.org that symbolize the coexistence of continuity and change in TRUST’s 20-year-long label history.

PREMIERE: Versalife - Neogenesis (TRUST)

A. Juan Atkins - I Love You 
B. Audiotech aka Juan Atkins - Techno City '95

This winter Tresor dons hardhat and flashlight once again to exhume more lost treasures from its stated past. Under the guise of it’s own 10-year dormant Archiv Series—which saw cuts from the likes of Robert Hood, Jeff Mills, Blake Baxter and Eddie Flashin’ Fowlkes brought back to wax and dancefloors worldwide—comes a reissue EP straight from the heart of the club’s former Wertheim department store days, courtesy of long-time resident Juan Atkins. 

On the A-side there’s the slow-burning spangled ballad  “I Love You”, from his 2004 record ‘Fast Forward’ - the last track to be played at the old Tresor, while the B-side hosts a stone cold Metroplex classic: “Techno City”, a track so slick it’ll never go out of style. Sit back and remember the good times, or discover them a-new, all over again.
