Berlin’s Swarm Intelligence joins NEW YORK TRAX Imports to release four fierce, off-beat techno and electro cuts. Tense atmospherics, uncompromising levels of distortion and stark, astute beats constitute a distinctive sound that Swarm Intelligence has been honing for more than a decade seeing him release on labels such as VOITAX, Ad Noiseam, Earwiggle and many more. The Dublin-born, Berlin-based producer is certainly no stranger to the techno world and his reputation of performing menacing live sets and deploying emphatic productions will leave an enduring impression on any listener. ‘NEW YORK TRAX Imports 04’ sees Swarm Intelligence join the New York Trax sub-label following the likes of Drvg Cvltvre, Endlec, Dawid Dahl and Another Alias. ‘Bury’ begins proceedings with powerful, syncopated drums fused with growling oscillations and haunting leads before intense vibrations scattered around resilient percussion and machine-like synth swirls take the focus in ‘Extraction’. On the flip, ‘Verloren’ maintains the sinister atmospherics through distorted kicks, eerie modulations and alarming feels until ‘Reach’ which recorded live, rounds things off with shooting, laser zaps, dramatic soundscapes and broken rhythms emphatically closing this fiery four track EP.

Track 1 — skipping into the rave, reefer on the go, and you're just about to hit a tab...!
Track 2 — you stumble into the blue room, gun shots going off!!! locking and loading all over the place...? f*!!
Track 3 — huh? sounds like the DJ is playing a lost Photek production at half speed - oh wait...I'm tripping, good sh*t though!
Track 4 — you're out the other side, pure rave/euphoria..."I love my m8s, now where did I leave them?!"

...a short description:
4 dubbed-out cuts in deep rave mode.

E-FAX005 – Consulate – Heraldry (Snippets)

Maybe no surprise from an artist who cites among his inspirations “the lush greenery of the Pacific Northwest,” Flora FM’s productions spill over with colour and vibrance. Recognisably part of an emerging tradition that seems to be North America’s answer to UK breaks culture, Flora FM’s latest release on Exotic Robotics continues the label’s run of playful, melody-rich dance music while folding in extra punch on tracks like Bronze Teeth and Magic Pebbles.

We feature, Softest Moon which rounds off the record in style. It's probably the most traditionally 'club ready' in structure of the bunch - kicking things off with a solid yet familiar bottom end, top end loop combo. The flicks and extra terrestrial nuances are something you'll be a custom to if au fait with Flora's otherworldly production style; but when this is met with the surging synth line - the melody's combine, creating a certified sonic treat.

made a rmx of the amazing track god's chariots by oklou. i was quite fascinated with the arpeggios and the first lyrics. i thought i'd share this bop. had lot of fun doing it.

original track : www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvlJ3keIJdw

the whole album is such a nice pop record.

Note that all profits will go to the Utopia 56 association which does a great field work helping refugees in several part of France where our government is failing to take care of this, only using tools of repression...

oklou - god's chariot's (basile3 lost club mix)

Artist: @yilanmusic
Catalogue Number: IM085
Album: Suddenly I Am Falling
Release Date: January 29th, 2021
Format: Digital

Emerging for his second release on Infinite Machine following his highly acclaimed 'Regression' EP with Amazondotcom and Superfície, Leeds - based producer Yilan returns for 'Suddenly I Am Falling'.

The title track opens with polyrhythmic kicks, electric hats and cataclysmic atmospheres that are set to send the dancefloor into a frenzy.

'Static Void' is an authentic Techno Dancehall masterclass with a sharp snare dancing around the syncopated pulse of the track.

Collaborating with Ren for third track, 'Niffler', sees the duo lurking into 90BPM territory for an unstoppable groove with razor-sharp percussive brutality and a masterclass in futuristic sound-design that expands across the entire audio spectrum.

Track four, 'Underwater Construction', is a halftime roller with ramped up distorted hits that emanate from an abandoned warehouse, like machinery exhaling.

'AFADS', featuring collaborator Ebb, launches things back into a rolling abyss like a ticking time bomb of kick drums that poke and play around paranoid lazer stabs and an astounding middle section that will leave you gulping in shock.

Closing the record out with an ambient work 'Lost Signals' portrays softer timbres of birdsong and synthesised windchimes, allowing time to reflect on what is one of the most inspiring talents to come out of the UK underground.

Tracklist:

1. Suddenly I Am Falling
2. Static Void
3. Niffler (with Ren)
4. Underwater Construction
5. AFADS (with Ebb)
6. Lost Signals
