TECHNO

Foremost international techno outlet Drumcode is delighted to announce the release of its next full-length album, ‘Satellite’, by enduring Italian techno talent Sam Paganini.

Though he has been active since the mid nineties, recent years have been hugely successful for Sam, with searing techno EPs coming on revered labels such as Riche Hawtin’s Plus8, Sven Vath’s Cocoon and of course, Adam Beyer’s Drumcode. In his time he has been responsible for underground hits like ‘Zoe’, ‘Polyester’ and ‘Fire In My Arms’, all of which demonstrate his dynamic understanding of sexy, dark and hypnotic techno grooves and at the same time have earned him plenty of great Beatport chart positions as well as respect from the best in the game.

Incredibly, ‘Satellite’ is Sam’s first full-length album. Informed by his DJ gigs at legendary places like Berghain in Berlin and Cielo in New York, the album starts with a dystopian bit of sonic scene setting, as if a space ship is charging up ready to take off.

From there it’s a case of getting straight down to business. ‘Another Chance’ is a spacey bit of cantering techno and ‘White’ is rooted in devastating kick drums and is riddled with serrated synth lines that build lots of great techno pressure. ‘Down’ is an undulating bit of funky techno complete with choice vocal flourishes and tracks like ‘Lotus’ are prime offerings from the deeper end of the scale.

No two tracks sound the same on Satellite: Sam is always teasing out a new bit of texture, nailing a slightly different vibe or exploring different amounts of light and dark throughout the course of this most excellent album. This is evidenced by diverse cuts like ‘Dusty’, ‘Toxic’ and ‘Rave’.

Despite ‘Satellite’ being Sam’s debut album, it showcases his seductive style in all its glory across 12 fantastic tracks that will leave you begging for more.

Alan Fitzpatrick is back with a three-track EP that encapsulates what Alan’s Drumcode sound is all about. Hard-hitting drums that fire down onto the dance floor like cannon balls. Check! Intense key patterns that are as twisted as they are uplifting. Check! Beautiful melodies that seamlessly interlock with each element. Check! Big-sounding, infectious grooves and killer hooks generously sprinkled with the infamous Fitzpatrick magic over the top. CHECK! In short, this EP is everything we have come to expect from Alan over his long history with Drumcode (this is his 10th EP as a solo artist!), but still his sound remains fresh and super-charged for 2014.

Dalosso is back with another original EP, this man never lets us down, a true talent and a committed artist, every time he appears on Variant Electronic it's a time to rejoice, and here we are again, after the success of Data EP, and his track Mech 2.3 from our second various artists, it outshone some of the supposedly bigger artists, but at VE we dont believe in hype, though it still happens, its always about the music and the art. Anyway, to the EP, Dalasso has provided 3 unbelievable original tracks, the title track of the EP "Lets Populate Titan", some twisted acid with Broken, and some industrial mayhem with Deselector, to be fair there is an industrial vibe off all of his originals as per usual. Onto the remixes, first up we got label head Luke Creed with his remix of the title track "Lets Populate Titan", he opted for a slower BPM but it doesn't hold back just like the original, distorted mayhem from the get go. Secondly we have the first track on this label from Saint Cole, owner of Super Computer A.V record label, this man is no stranger to making really intricate techno numbers, and he didn't let us down here, it goes from an excellent four on the floor intro, with a sweet vocal overlaid, then it drops into some broken goodness, as the name suggests, then seamlessly dropping back into the four on the floor, the track continues along these lines, a really complex and intricate production, would suit many styles of sets. the last remix is from one of our main men this year Sin Ø, he provided one of the most diverse EP's this label has seen earlier this year, and this is far from his last submission to the label, he is a genuine artists artist, always massively creative and impressive, and this one is another one to behold, Industrial, Acid, Four on the Floor, Glitches, builds, Drops, its got it all. All in all this EP is incredible in our opinion, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed organising it.
