DINAMITE - Excelsior EP
cat# DU-LAB11


1. Enterprise
2. Excelsior
3. Odyssey
4. Sovereign  

When piloting a starship, it’s important to have a fitting soundtrack. Listening to the drone of the warp engines is comforting, but sometimes sleep-inducing. Sometimes you need a beat to keep you on task.

Berlin-based Dinamite is a different kind of pilot, steering the deep grooves known throughout the galaxy as Earth’s musical speciality: techno. On this, the “Excelsior EP”, she composed four excellent tunes ready to be played over your starship’s intercom system or just in your personal quarters with a few fellow crewmembers and some iced raktajino.   Starting with an ode to the Federation’s flagship “Enterprise”, Dinamite gives proper reverence with an electro-flavored bump and bleep, then moves into a darker, broken expanse of beats and atmosphere befitting the transwarp prototype with “Excelsior”.   “Odyssey” is an altogether darker affair, with a metallic stomp and cavernous depths befitting a Klingon war party. Turn it up, add blood wine, and mind the sharp objects, lest you end up in sickbay. Finally, with “Sovereign”, we have a slower, more melodic downbeat number, the kind of piece that makes staring at a warp core a potentially religious experience.   In its entirety, it’s not a jolt to the system on the level of Romulan ale or a Klingon opera, but it will keep your mind and body occupied at Warp 3. Just remember not to dance at your station, as most starship captains frown on this behavior.

@kaiserksr_it - The Way Back EP (Soma565d)

1. The Way Back
2. Tales Of The Future
3. Loud Cries
4. Clubbed To Death

Prolific Italian producer Kaiser makes his long awaited debut on Soma with a perfectly executed 4 track EP, The Way Back. Having been present on the scene through releases with Planet Rhythm, Animal Farm and more recently his own K S R imprint, Kaiser's style is a mixture of abrasive, hypnotic Techno blended with element of minimalism, glued together with a solid amount of groove. 

Title track The Way Back reminisces to Birmingham-era UK Techno with it’s thundering rhythms and twisted synth hook. Tales Of The Future takes things on a more futuristic tip as spacial polyrhythms build the structure of this very functional track. Ramping up the pace a little more, Loud Cries builds incessantly as impulsive percussion drives this perfectly crafted tool. Clubbed to Death finishes off this Soma debut EP from Kaiser with a speedy broken beat as atonal pads and drones create a densely packed, atmospheric and climactic track. 

All tracks mastered by Conor Dalton @ Glowcast Mastering.

Straight from the confines of her chosen Berlin home, @ladystarlightnyc impresses with an update of her singular, machine-driven techno. Ranging from banging to introspective, this record shows the artist at her most versatile yet, pairing her signature bone-dry analog output with emotive atmospherics and playful vibrancy.
Starting out deep, A1 contrasts uptempo acid licks with grand layers of strings, followed by the slowly building, equally vibey A2. Panoramic washes create an ambiance of space, the elastic kick steadily holding down the floor until a late swash of percussion seals the deal.
The flip carries one of Starlight’s most abrasive moments, featuring rave-style sirens right out the gate, treated to some crazy live filtering with epic acidic effects. Mysterious grooves on the last track, its offbeat synth swaying an electric tension, restrained yet powerful.

Coming soon.

"Spherical" – the eagerly anticipated debut long-player from multi-faceted Spanish producer, DJ and label boss Ian Axide – will be released on June 29, 2020 via his very own Emphatic Records imprint. 

A career-defining moment for the now London-based artist, the ten-track Spherical opus marks Ian Axide’s most extensive and innovative body of work to date and pertinently showcases the inexhaustible creativity of one of the most prolific acts in underground techno right now. 

Known for his highly experimental soundscapes and hard-hitting atmospheres, Ian’s uniquely underground treatment across the entirety of "Spherical" is both wonderfully dark and hypnotic, whilst maintaining the impressive quality of engaging the listener from the very start. Complete with incredible complexity, energy and intricacy across its ten-track duration, Ian capitalises on his innate ability to draw you into a dark, industrial construct, as he explores a remarkable array of timbres from across the techno spectrum.
