Deep Dark Acid 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.

Mr McKay is back on Drumcode with an EP that is very close to home, titled ‘Glasgow Safari’. Harvey has blended his synonymous synth stabs and vocal hooks together and has created another outstanding EP. The drums are fat and chunky as always and allow Harvey’s ideas to flow effortlessly over a solid foundation. The smooth use of dynamic throughout Harvey’s tracks also create impressive drops to add to another exceptional EP from Harvey.

Storming his way back onto Drumcode Luigi Madonna closes off the Summer with a four track smasher that will see him welcome in Autumn with a bang. Each track contains the solid, raw drums that are the backbone to each track Luigi has conjured up. With a brooding undertone, the simplicity found in each track gives the lead lines and ideas more space to breath, which overall creates a unique and charismatic submission that can only be found from the Italian.

I was extremely honored to be featured on the legendary Essential Mix show this summer...  When I was in college, my teacher used to play us Essential Mixes in class, and on the 20th anniversary of the show,  Pete Tong was hosting James Zabiela and Sasha at the Warehouse Project in Manchester. I was the first one in the queue and the last one to leave the club! I will never forget that night. This year I had the honor of meeting Pete Tong at IMS Ibiza, and I think you can imagine how overwhelming it was to be invited to record a set for the show.  Here is my Essential Mix. I hope you enjoy it

DEEP DARK & ACID TECHNO | DOOM IMPENDING

All diese Momente werden nicht verloren sein... Wer die mittlerweile dann doch recht lange Geschichte der elektronischen Musik miterlebt hat, hat zahllose DJ-Sets gehört, etliche Nächte durchgetanzt, hunderte Diskurse geführt und viele crazy Storys aus erster oder zweiter Hand erfahren. Musikalische Strömungen und ihre Protagonisten kamen und gingen, Genres und Untergenres entstanden, Stile und Moden entwickelten sich rasant, teils parallel – kurzum die letzten dreißig Jahre hatten für den Connaisseur viel zu bieten.

Wenn dann ein DJ nach all diesen Jahren noch immer für hohe Qualität, Originalität, Coolness und Fortschritt steht, ist das an sich schon etwas sehr besonderes. Wenn aber an einem Abend gleich zwei Protagonisten – auf die dies zutrifft – in einem Club spielen, darf man wohl getrost von einer legendären Nacht sprechen.

DJ Hell und DJ Jonzon stehen für Techno und auch für ihre 1995 auf Disko B erschienene „Hell+Jonzon ‎EP“. Helmut Geier alias Hell stammt aus München, jobbte seinerzeit im Berliner Hardwax hinterm Tresen, bevor er sein Label International Deejay Gigolo Records aus der Taufe hob. Der Berliner Jonzon veranstaltete 1988 gemeinsam mit Dr. Motte die ersten Acid-House-Partys und war Resident im ersten Berliner Techno Club UFO, Tresor und E-Werk. Beide sind DJs, die über Jahrzehnte das Genre geprägt haben, auch mit eigenen Produktionen, vor allem aber durch ihre stilprägenden DJ-Sets. Zwei Gentlemen, die weniger durch Theorie als durch Praxis so viele von uns mitgerissen und inspiriert haben. Beide besitzen die Gabe, einen Club mit einer irisierenden Energie zu füllen, ohne dabei mit Firlefanz und billigen Taschenspieler-Tricks zu blenden – hier erleben wir die verbindende Kraft, die Techno erzeugt, wenn er mit Wissen, Funkyness und Courage präsentiert wird.

Wer wie ich das große Glück in der Vergangenheit hatte, des Öfteren mit einem der beiden die DJ Booth zu teilen, hat immer etwas mit nach Hause genommen. Lehrstunden in Integrität, Attitude und Wagemut, und als Gast fühlt man sich herausgefordert und gleichzeitig safe. Merkwürdig genug, dass beide sehr lange nicht mehr gemeinsam gespielt haben, umso spannender, dass es an diesen Abend im Kassablanca wieder stattfindet. Und wie es der Zufall will, Hell war genau vor 20 Jahren zu Gast im ehemaligen Lokschuppen.

Dazu gesellt sich Maik von der Solid Rotation Crew, welcher Resident im mjut (Leipzig) ist und dort seine eigene Veranstaltungsreihe „Futuro Grande“ betreibt. Italo & Acidhouse steht auf seiner Flagge, getreu der Devise: Rave Strikes Back! ... und ich habe mir den Termin schonmal eingetragen, euer DJ Clé.

DJ Hell @ Rave Strikes Back, 02.10.2019

It's the year 2045 the dark age of industrial machine rule.
It all began in 2020 when mankind began to merge with machines.
First and foremost with the sounds known as "Techno"

DJ Hell - Black Disney @ Folklor Club, Lausanne - 28.8.2020

A rare treat for Drumcode faithful: A-Sides Vol.10 is set to drop in December, the second edition of the beloved series to come in 2020.

Fuelled by the extra time and space to be creative during lockdown, Drumcode’s collective of artists have stepped up. Across 17 contributions, the producers have gone deeper into their sonic repertoire, crafting powerful, yet reflective works that capture the range of the label’s sound.

Jay Lumen leads the way with a rousing riff-driven weapon, ‘Galactic Rainbow’, while Ramon Tapia brings us the muscular gem ‘Drum Control’, mixing up ruffneck techno with a barrage of synapse-tickling synths in the second half. Both rousing highlights of the compilation.
Victor Ruiz, Drumcode’s most prolific contributor in 2020, dishes up ‘Love Story’, led by a huge vocal lead. Zimmz also returns with ‘Tension’, which deftly combines deep squelchy grooves with a silky synth interlude. Thomas Hoffknecht follows up his debut on Vol.9 with ‘Escape’, keeping listeners on their toes with dynamic, choppy shifts throughout. Veerus joins with another stirring addition ‘I Know’, reinforcing why Beyer rates him so highly.

Elsewhere a string of debutants feature: buzzy newcomer Lilly Palmer gives us ‘Amnesie’, a brilliantly pummelling and eerie cut; Alex Lentini & Stomp Boxx serve up ‘Expanders’ mixing up drone effects, trippy vocals and an unsettling melody line; and Patrik Berg’s ‘Activated’ is full-bodied techno that drops down into funky rhythms.

Long-time DC family member Bart Skils brings his A-game with the thrilling no-nonsense ‘Solid State’ that hits like a steam train. Likewise, Alan Fitzpatrick who brings a momentous slab of techno energy with ‘Rochus’, while Thomas Schumacher, now feeling like a regular on the imprint, crafts another dark techno opus, this time in collaboration with CAITLIN.

There’s even a special appearance by the chief Adam Beyer, who makes a welcome return with the progressive-tinged ‘Changes’, driven by organic tones and spacey atmospherics. The track stands as his first original contribution to A-Sides since 2017.
