Huxley - Inkwell - Aus Music

Sometimes the right things just fall into the right place and so it happened with an old track by Thomas P. Heckmann under his Drax disguise, named Section 2. Originally released as Techno’s first ever 7inch, it was very popular in 1993 and paved the way for the huge follow ups like Drax Three -Phosphene and the hugely influential and successful Drax LTD.II - Amphetamine.

But read what Mark Broom has to say about this new version and enjoy :
„I was a fan of your Drax material & I had the original red picture disc, had that track on my hard drive & it fitted perfect to the track I was making at the time, sent it to Alan Fitzpatrick a few years ago & he would always ask me if it will ever get released, then out of the blue he sent me his edit & the rest as they say is history!!“

Green Velvet & Jay Lumen - It's All About Me (Jay Lumen Remix)

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.

A1. Welcome To Disco
A2. Welcome To Disco (Isaiah Remix)
B1. Radici
B2. Groover

Markantonio returns to vinyl with Radici, a bold statement that dives deep into his origins, both in name and sonic identity. This four-track EP marks a pivotal moment in his artistic journey, bridging the raw energy of early techno with his signature funky groove-driven approach.

A vital force in shaping the Neapolitan techno identity since 2001, AnalyticTrail now takes a new step in its evolution with the release of Radici. Markantonio, the label’s founder and one of Italy’s most influential techno figures, makes a striking return to the forefront. This release doesn’t just mark his comeback to vinyl, it reflects a renewed connection to his roots and a forward-thinking vision that continues to drive the underground movement.

Opening with Welcome to Disco, the A-side sets the tone with an infectious rhythm, pulsating basslines, and shimmering synths that light up the floor with hypnotic flair. Rising Dutch talent Isaiah delivers a bold reinterpretation with his Rework, injecting a darker, more driving edge layered with brooding atmospheres and relentless percussion. On the B-side, the title track Radici dives deeper into tribal-infused territory, blending hypnotic loops with raw percussive energy, while Groover rounds out the EP with a stripped-back, minimalist roller designed for late-night momentum.

A must-have for techno lovers, Radici captures the essence of where it all began and where it’s headed next.

Freshing Duo Loco & Jam came back on Markantonio's imprint to galvanize the italian Techno movement. By the amazing revelation in 2011 when these young guys made their debut on Analytic Trail with a fresh remix, now is the time to sign the mark with an own project. This cool release includes two original tracks and one Remix of Bryan Chapman, an eclectic producer already known for some important releases on Alan Fitzpatrick’s imprint “8 Sided Dice”.

"Titus" is a straight techno mix, made by rides sessions and storming synth. Kick is really aggressive and fat, of course a cool dancefloor bomb.

Second one is "Pass The Guard", a groovy techno track with a warm bassline and an heavy kick. Track is really flowing and is reached by an acid synth in the pick phase, simply Techno.
