To relaunch his seminal imprint, Infrastructure New York, Function presents his new 12", Green EP. Celebrating 27 years of Function releases this year and the label’s 25th anniversary, the label will serve as an outlet for his new material, reissues of out of print classics from Synewave, Sandwell District and Ostgut Ton (and of course, Infrastructure), as well as developing new artists and launching a long awaited Bandcamp page - exploring the annals of nearly 30 years of the Function sound. No doubt fans will be excited.
As a member of the Sandwell District collective, David Sumner aka Function, from 2007 onward was instrumental in cultivating and ushering in a new sound of dark, cerebral hypnotica - forcing the hand of change in global techno. Green EP serves as a testament to this, further exploring these depths. The EP pays homage to the day when David arrived in Berlin with his green suitcase where his record “Isolation” on Sandwell District was released, hitting the ground running and springboarding into an incredibly successful career, becoming a stalwart DJ/producer, after years as a struggling artist.

Green EP encapsulates the same raw power and hypnotic energy of his genre defining Sandwell District releases Isolation, Anticipation and Variance, updated with a modern flair. Subject f (Function) has clearly transcended, as expressed through the opening track “Initiation” arriving at his “New Designation”. On the b-side Function communicates his divine alignment through the broken beat, etheric “Aeternum (Meridian)”. Finally, Function closes Green EP with a live extraction of “Desire and Memory”, a brooding club stormer in contrast to the more experimental leanings of the original version, which appeared on Rrose’s label Eaux. One thing is clear: Function is back on track and more on form than ever!

PREMIERE : Darris Hopper - Desert Walk [ST081]

Is all about the experiences we feel when in contact with Nature...
We are so used to living in the matrix that we don't realise how much we need to re-establish connections with ourselves and mother earth.

This work is a way to describe how a simple morning hike between the sand of the desert and the mediterranean sea in a natural park in southern Spain can touch our deepness and make us feel that huge and strong connection with nature.

To give strength to this description I had the pleasure to have two great remixes by artists who I admire and appreciate a lot: Ronny Pinazza and Absis.

Hope you enjoy the walk.

Written and Produced by Alex Tirrelli in Spain.
Mastering by Mattias Fridell in Sweden.

Hello world,

The ACCENTEP series continues with a special new opus, produced by the founder and curator of the Sub Accent label. ‘Spiral EP’ is a corpus of eight tracks, all produced in 2024 and following a precise modus operandi: the construction of tracks that are both minimalist and progressive, with a tendency towards acid deep techno. Conceived as a catalogue of tools, Spiral EP is clearly aimed at dancefloors, and intended for the most demanding listeners and DJs. Rooted in the classics of progressive electronic music, this set of eight tracks attempts to reanimate the genre through a more contemporary and direct production.

Tracklist: 

1.1 - Spiral I 
1.2 - Spiral II
1.3 - Spiral III
1.4 - Spiral IV
2.1 - Spiral V
2.2 - Spiral VI 
2.3 - Spiral VII
2.4 - Spiral VIII

PREMIERE: Sub Accent - Spiral VII [Accents Records]

Her DJ sets are seen as transformative inner guidance into the depths of your true self, envisioning you through shadows and light until you lose yourself in an ethereal expanse.

For the thirteenth episode of our podcast series, we are presenting a 90-minute studio recorded mix by Kim Kenis.

Natural consequence is a key phrase for Brussels-born DJ Kim Kenis.  Raised by a drummer, it’s no coincidence that she easily stays in time as she strings together gems from along the genre spectrum. Known and loved as someone who pretty much can’t stop dancing once she starts, it was only a matter of time before she channeled this endurance behind the decks.  Whether sending stargazers into the ether with her ambient selections or getting hearts and bass thumping on the dancefloor with her minimalistic techno sets, Kim brings a bewitching tenderness to her DJ-ing that quickly caught the attention of the Belgian scene.

With the tenacity of a historian deep in an archive, she’s had a near-prolific output of thoughtful, studied radio mixes since 2019 (Refuge Worldwide FM, WAV, Radio Sofa) and an interesting club & festival schedule (Waking Life, Horst Arts & Music, Paradise City, Listen! Festival, Funke, …).

Influenced by a hypnotic techno style with sometimes psychedelic overtones, she also draws inspiration from ambient music and more experimental genres. Her passion for exploring new sounds allows her to enrich her musical universe and remain in constant evolution. 
She has shared the stage with renowned artists such as DJ Nobu, GiGi FM, Zadig, or Kerrie and has recently performed at legendary Berghain.
