Red Richards & Maximilian Beck - I Want To Believe Part 2 (Hurukan )

Don't Blame yourself-orginal mix

Closing the chapter, ICONYC Red mainstay Jil Tanner returns with Best Days Are Nights, a final, feverish statement that encapsulates the imprint's nocturnal edge. A signature Tanner cut through and through, the track burns with intensity and atmosphere, its cinematic drive elevated by a sultry remix from Serbian powerhouse and ICONYC regular Space Motion.

Shrouded in darkness, Best Days Are Nights unfolds atop a cavernous low-end rumble, its bassline tunneling forward as cascades of synths spiral into the abyss. With the piece now firing on all cylinders, Jil deploys a myriad of depth charges that explode against the hull as we reach for a second break, where shimmering synthetics and mechanical voices amp the tension beyond scales before resuming its all-consuming path. A quintessential ICONYC Red moment: raw, unrestrained, and impossible to resist.

On the B-side, Space Motion takes the reins with a full-throttle rework built for the world's main stages. Recasting Tanner's brooding original into a techno-melodic storm, the Serbian artist amplifies its pulse into a hypnotic peak-time weapon. Propelled by a high-octane frame, we are thrust into equal parts of danger and lust as a barrage of restless synths drives us to a dazzling halt where lush vocals interlock, elevating us before overriding our senses for one final round. Part seduction, part surrender, and a perfect curtain call for the ICONYC Red storyline.

Debuting on Kompakt with a masterfully twisted remix of Gui Boratto's "Take Control" (KOMPAKT 302) in 2014, Miami-based DJ/Producer DANNY DAZE had already made himself a name with outings on tastemaking labels like Maceo Plex's Ellum Audio, Ultramajic or Miami's very own Omnidisc - but it was the raw and muscular SPEICHER 80 that really opened up our receptors. Danny's recipe for bendy, electro- infused techno turned out to be insanely catchy and ripe with bass, a bold, futuristic and funky vision for the dancing floor that finds a brilliant follow-up in his latest outing: two new exercises in off-the-cuff mayhem grace SPEICHER 91, with face-melting uber- jam SWIM kicking off a weird and wonderful parade of synth riffs, belting beats and pure arpeggio anarchy - while the flipside is held hostage by the razor-sharp, robotic funk of MACHINE, Danny's second collaboration with TRANSLUCENT for Speicher after the hard-hitting "Speaker Language" (KOMPAKT EXTRA 80).

Schon vor seinem Kompakt-Debüt mit einem meisterhaft verzwirbelten Remix für Gui Boratto's "Take Control" (KOMPAKT 302) hatte sich Miami's DANNY DAZE mit Veröffentlichungen auf so illustren Plattformen wie Maceo Plex's Ellum Audio, Ultramajic oder Omnidisc einen Namen gemacht - doch es war die rauhbeinige und muskulöse SPEICHER 80, die unsere Rezpetoren erst so richtig durchgepustet hat. Dannys Rezept für biegsamen, Electro- durchwirkten T echno entpuppte sich als unglaublich mitreissend und basslastig, eine kühne, futuristische und funkende Vision für den tanzenden Flur, die ihre Fortsetzung in einer brillianten neuen Scheibe findet: zwei frische Blaupausen für den Rave im Handumdrehen beglücken uns auf SPEICHER 91, mit der Gesichtszugkernschmelze SWIM als Auftakt zur völligen Arpeggio-Anarchie - während die Rückseite dem rasiermesserscharfen Robofunk von MACHINE zum Opfer fällt, Dannys zweiter Kollaboration mit TRANSLUCENT für Speicher nach dem knallharten Durchstarter "Speaker Language" (KOMPAKT EXTRA 80).

In the wake of renewed activity on the
WASSERMANN front, Wolfgang Voigt’s legendary
fringe rave alter ego, we’re thrilled to introduce a
new generation of listeners to his game-changing
cut W.I.R. – the vocoder-fuelled banger was a
massive crossover hit in 2000, bringing the
idiosyncratic underground sounds emanating
from a young scene of Cologne producers and
DJs who rallied under the Kompakt banner to a
wider audience. It sounded like nothing else on
the dance floors at the time and paved Kompakt’s
way into the spotlight. First released on Voigt’s
experimental techno label Profan, the track hasn’t
lost a quota of its futuristic and fresh appeal to
this day – it’s every bit as timeless as the remixes
from German DJ icon SVEN VÄTH and Kompakt
power duo TOBIAS THOMAS & MICHAEL MAYER
which dropped shortly after the release of the
original. Find all of these plus a new FARBEN
REMIX of FACKELN IM STURM by Wolfgang Voigt
in one barnstorming package, remastered to
perfection and available as digital download for
the first time ever. Furthermore, an updated 2016
rework of W.I.R. will be released together with the
DJ KOZE remix of Wassermann's DIE
SCHALLPLATTE on a bonus 10" accompanying
the upcoming limited edition of TOTAL 16 - not to
be missed!


Im Zuge erneuter Aktivität an der WASSERMANNFront,
Wolfgang Voigts legendäres Alternativ-
Rave-Projekt, ist es an der Zeit, eine neue
Generation an Hörern mit seinem
bahnbrechenden Track W.I.R. vertraut zu machen
- der Vocoder-geschwängerte Schieber geriet
2000 zu einem massiven Crossover-Hit und
gewann neues Publikum für die
idiosynkratischen Underground-Klänge einer
jungen Kölner Szene an Produzenten und DJs,
die sich unter dem Kompakt-Banner
versammelten. Es klang wie nichts anderes auf
den damaligen Tanzfluren und bereitete
Kompakts Weg ins Rampenlicht vor.
Ursprünglich auf Voigts experimentellem
Technolabel Profan veröffentlicht, hat der Track
kein bisschen an Frische und futuristischer
Anziehungskraft verloren - er ist genauso zeitlos
wie die Remixe der deutschen DJ-Ikone SVEN
VÄTH und des Kompakt'schen Power-Duos
TOBIAS THOMAS & MICHAEL MEYER, welche
seinerzeit kurz nach dem Original veröffentlicht
wurden. Diese drei Zeitzeugen plus Wolfgang
Voigts brandneuem FARBEN REMIX des
Klassikers FACKELN IM STURM finden sich im
W.I.R. REMIXE Paket, neu gemastert und zum
allerersten Mal als digitaler Download verfügbar.
Desweiteren wird eine neue 2016er Fassung von
W.I.R. zusammen mit dem DJ KOZE Remix von
Wassermanns DIE SCHALLPLATTE auf einer
Bonus-10" zu finden sein, welche als Teil der
anstehenden limitierten Edition der TOTAL 16
Compilation erhältlich ist - auf keinen Fall
verpassen!

Selección Natural
Split Didactics EP

A- Split Didactics
B- A New Description Of Hell

Release date: September 6 th 2019
 
Our dream team is back in the studio for the new instalment of the Selección Natural series. This limited 10 inch vinyl comes as an advance of a full-length work to be released this autumn as PoleGroup057.  
We provide two cuts of raw and powerful techno cooked by Oscar Mulero, Exium and Reeko in Oscar’s studio in the north of Spain. Modular synthesizers, samplers and drum machines expertly crafted on behalf of this proper techno workout.

A side Split Didactics gives all the energy from the beginning, fast tempo, hard drums, obsessive sequences and a linear and hypnotic arrangement.

B side A New Description of Hell runs in similar parameters, hi speed, harsh sound design, no breaks, no pads no useless elements, just energy and purity.

As an extra bonus, artwork by the mighty Silent Servant.

Six months after debuting on Christian Smith's Tronic imprint with Magia EP, Italian rising star Sara Simonit will drop her follow-up with the Evolution EP.

Simonit's recent bootleg of DJ Rolando's timeless 'Jaguar' catapulted her into the spotlight, with major support from the likes of Carl Cox, Karotte and Christian Smith. Cox loved it so much, he played it to a loving crowd at the Off Sonar closing party and Resistance Ibiza.

Now Simonit returns with her latest EP, Evolution, which shows the remarkable growth of her sound with four club-ready bangers. 

The opening track 'Don't Wait' is seven minutes of dancefloor euphoria, equally fitted for big festivals and dark nightclubs. The title track steps things up with a rolling banger destined to destroy dancefloors across the globe. 'Peculiar' excels at combining progressive chords with mighty kickdrums and solid percussions, whereas 'Freeze' wraps up the EP perfectly with its cosmic arpegios, frenetic beats and deep, atmospheric textures.

We are back from the label's annual August break - and with none other than Argentine duo Beico & MT93 who finally return to Kraftek for the first time since last year's blistering Cosmic Techno effort which put them on everyone's radar: "Let There Be Dark". Although we waited a long time to choose their followup track, we are ecstatic to have the boys back with a record as good if not better than its predecessor which ended up topping the techno charts for a month. Without further ado - this is Beico & MT93 - "Fury".
