Dark Science Electro presents: Alessio Bargiacchi

ARTIST: DMITRY DISTANT / LECTROMAGNETIQUE
LABEL: BASS AGENDA RECORDINGS
CAT. NO: BA039
FORMAT: VINYL
RELEASE DATE: 04 MARCH 2016
MASTERED BY: ALEK STARK at Fundamental Audio

TRACKLIST:

DMITRY DISTANT – ‘THEOSOPHIST’
DMITRY DISTANT – ‘LOBOTOMY’
DMITRY DISTANT – ‘CONTEMPLATION’
DMITRY DISTANT – ‘LOBOTOMY’ (OBERGMAN REMIX)

LECTROMAGNETIQUE – ‘ORBITER’
LECTROMAGNETIQUE – ‘ANN’
LECTROMAGNETIQUE – ‘NOT FOR MANKIND’

Continuing Bass Agenda’s mission to highlight the gems hidden away in the underground enclaves of Electro and Techno the label releases its 4th vinyl. Russian Dmitry Distant and Ukrainian Lectromagnetique take a side of the red marbled vinyl disc each; both artists that have made more than a blip on Dave Clarke’s radar over the last couple of years.

Since his debut, also on Bass Agenda, Lectromagnetique has had the support of the Baron both on and off his White Noise Radio show and appeared on the ‘White Noise 500’ compilation released in 2015. Dmitry Distant’s first release on Bass Agenda also got a vote of confidence when his track ‘Forme De La Nuit’ made it into Clarke’s “Best of Electro 2014” show.

Both artists have a penchant for the darker, more sinister side of electronic music and through channelling that dark energy take familiar track structures and twist them into something individual.

Dmitry Distant’s side of the record sees a journey through abstract soundscapes, hefty dark atmospheric Techno and Electro, rounded off nicely by a dark funk injected remix from Sweden’s Obergman. All made live with machines, Dmitry’s tracks are the authentic type of electronic music the popular scene would have you forget. No surprise then that his live schedule is taking him across Europe including a gig alongside the mighty Rude66 and Luke Eargoggle in Berlin.

Lectromagnetique takes you on a ride through some edgy, acidic and melancholic broken techno experiences. Whilst many seek to portray that cold, sci-fi, and industrial vibe in their music, few get to draw on the experiences of living in the Pripyat region on Chernobyl’s doorstep. As you listen you can feel and visualise places you would otherwise never dare tread or let your mind wander to.

This is a record for those who don’t accept the norm and want to challenge and excite their audience; all with the Bass Agenda seal of quality.

“the influential Bass Agenda radio show & label…” [DJ Mag]

“Bass Agenda is killing Electro with its releases, consistently ground breaking” [Dave Clarke]

The release will be available direct from the label via Bandcamp bassagendarecordings.bandcamp.com and is also distributed by MSR in Vienna: info@minimalsoul.com

Heads or Tails?

ARTIST: Carl Finlow/Dez Williams
LABEL: BASS AGENDA RECORDINGS
CAT. NO: BA044v
FORMAT: Vinyl (230 copies)
RELEASE DATE: 12 July 2016 (35 copies available from 21st July to Bass Agenda Newsletter subscribers)
MASTERED BY: Alek Stark at Fundamental Audio

BA044v brings you two of the UK's finest Electronic music producers and live acts, each taking a side of vinyl each and showing why they've earned high levels of respect from listeners, DJs and fellow artists alike.

On Side A Carl Finlow offers up two tracks of his trademark high standard. In both cases he artfully blends the ingredients that have earned him the respect of listeners and fellow producers alike; intelligence, a strong groove, futuristic elements and that Finlow factor that you can’t quite put your finger on but just makes his material rise to the top. ‘Bleem’ is machine funk at its best, instantly infectious, hypnotic and speaking equally well to your body and mind. It builds subtly and each layer just adds to the pleasure a real escape through sound affair. ‘Chemical Bonds’ follows suit with another carefully concocted machine groove, accented by distorted riffs and a constant reminder from the vocal to ‘Don’t stop’ mid-way through the track you are somehow suspended on the plateau Finlow has raised you to, as a dystopian sci-fi atmosphere swirls around and engulfing you. These are not simplistic tracks; they just feel so right on the ears because the elements weave in between one another effortlessly; because the architect is so skilled.

On Side B no stranger to vinyl and exposure where it counts, a firm favourite of Dave Clarke and many other educated DJs of the authentic Electro sound, Dez Williams delivers three punches; all dance floor killers overflowing with energy. Interference Pattern kicks off his side of the record and heads straight for the jugular; punchy drums, infectious acid lines and crafty tempo changes guarantee a sweaty floor and ceiling at any club. Keeping the pace high Dayzov V1.1 brings a hard, fast, driving groove which strikes nicely at the sweet spot where techno and electro overlap. Lastly Whitey. This sums up the way you feel after the two preceding tracks; head a wash with crazy sounds and rhythms, gradually spiralling into that special place dance music can take you - dazed, confused and loving it.

Info:
As Bass Agenda Recordings approaches its 50th release championing underground Electro in a way that’s consistently caught the attention of Dave Clarke since its first release in 2013 and received support from the likes of The Hacker, Truss, The Black Dog and Laurent Garnier the label expands its armoury with its founder’s first electronic love – Techno.

The T-Series (T is for Techno) kicks off hard with ‘Scaring Horses’ by UK artist and DJ The Subdermic. 5 tracks of no-nonsense straight up Techno that pays attention to all the elements that fill a floor and get a crowd moving as one unified, pumped, sweating mass.

Just experience a few seconds of the acid hook, Goliath kick drum and swing of the Acid House version of ‘Scaring the Horses’ to learn that this is the real deal made by someone not locked away in their bedroom making Techno but rather an artist applying years of learning what works in the clubs the hard way – putting out records since 2001 and DJ’ing at the front, pulling no punches.

The original version of ‘Scaring the Horses’ put a rocket under Dave Clarke’s White Noise episode 549 not so long ago and got early support from Claude Young. The remaining three tracks show three sides to The Subdermic’s passion – hypnotic and infectious, putting their fingers on your synapses whilst kicking your ass, over and over again.

The Subdermic at a glance:

- First 12" record release in 2001 on energy industries called 'Nymph EP' supported by John Peel and Cari Lekebush followed up in 2002 on energy industries 12" called 'The Breakers of Grimsby'
- First live PA’s performed at Democracy, Cleethorpes then crowds of 2000 alongside Paul Oakenfold, also SECT in Leeds and many more;
- Started the Techno label Subdermic in 2008 & self-released 4 EPs;
- In 2010 track ‘Electric Cabaret’ was rated as Dave Clarke’s top track of 2010 & was released in 2011 with support also from the late Aaron Carl. The remix of the track also had support from Juan Atkins;
- Other label releases include Vegim’s ‘TMM’ ('Take More Music') and AMU recordings;
- Self-released debut LP in 2015 'What the Eyes Truly See', followed up by 'Joyride' on Bass Agenda in 2016, which saw a diversity of style;
- As if fate had a hand in this release coming to Bass Agenda Recordings The Subdermic was also featured on Dave Clarke’s White Noise 500 compilation on The Public Stand label – a release for which Andy Barton of Bass Agenda Recordings provided the Electro tracks.


The Subdermic - Scaring Horses (The Bass Agenda Recordings T Series: part 1)

Artist: Go Nuclear
Title: Techno World
Cat Number: BA049
Release date: 28th October 2016
Written & produced by: Tim Checkley and Clint Watkins
Artwork by: Elliot Francis Stewart

The Bass Agenda Presents series continues, this time turning attention to New Zealand based duo 'Go Nuclear' and their debut release 'Techno World'.

Taking Detroit's influence well and truly to the heart there's two stunning original tracks here offering old school vibes with a modern twist, lovingly crafted in a way that shows exactly why, when done properly, authentic Electro will never die.

Bringing the remix here is Detroit's Filthiest (aka DJ Nasty) - a true Detroit talent who has been keeping it real since the nineties; his name alone is a seal of quality.

Turn it on, turn it up and....Go Nuclear.

Go Nuclear - Techno World (Bass Agenda Presents 15) / Releases 28/10/2016

Cat. No: BA051
Artist: Franck Kartell
Title: Coincidences
Release date: 28th November 2016
Format: Double Vinyl (no digital files)

Info:

Franck Kartell's third full length release on Bass Agenda Recordings sees him continuing to do what he has done since he began this creative trajectory of making concept driven albums; pushing himself, his art and your experience as a listener, into new realms. 

As with his last album La jette d'Orly, this next chapter in Kartell's adventures in creativity is inspired and influenced by the cinematic works and writing of Chris Marker.
 
Following on from sell out albums 'Afterlife' and 'La jette d'Orly' the new double vinyl album 'Coincidences' immerses you in 12 distinct scenes, painted with sound.

To transport a listener to another plain within seconds is not easy, yet it is something Franck Kartell achieves here not once but 12 times in a row; sustaining the illusion of escape throughout each track, cradling your mind as it experiences beauty, majesty, fear, darkness, peace and wonder.

200 copies. High quality vinyl. Includes poster and artwork perfectly capturing the mood of the record by Laurent Chedmail. Mastered by Alek Stark.

Franck Kartell - Coincidences (Album preview)// BA051 (Double Vinyl)

Artist: T/error
Title: Eka Bismuth
Format: Limited CD
Cat. No: BA052
Release date: 10 track CD - 25th January 2017 / 9 track digital - March 2017 (date TBC)

Following on from 'D7', his first full length album on Bass Agenda Recordings, Italy's T/error is back with a vengeance.

Far from being an artist who rests or churns out regular carbon copies of his previous works, T/error takes care with his craft and this album shows him at his best, his most evolved and most mature creatively.

Fans of the intense darkness he can summon up in his work will not be disappointed; abstract, twisted, intelligent sounds not of this earth are abundant. Listeners will also experience a level of emotion and drama hinted at in previous recordings. This time his ability to lift you high out of your consciousness is fully unleashed in tracks such as Isotope 420 and Oblivion Reef.

RXmode is back, hot on the heels of his killer contribution to Bass Agenda's 50th release 'Transhumanism’ (a compilation of Dutch Electro).

‘Secrets of the Cults’ brings four tracks out of the mouth of darkness and to your ears; dripping with atmosphere, rolling basslines and big drums.

Those of you who enjoyed his debut release ‘Red Cards’ will recognise the immense sense of drama in these new tracks and recognise an impressive maturing in RXmode’s productions skills.

Each track could easily be a soundtrack to these unusual modern times we live in; something dark and unusual creeping towards us, gathering strength and intensity, sweeping us up in a sonic stream of deadly distraction. 

Not for the faint of heart, this is creative electronic music with a dark soul.

The Paradigm Shift EP offers three tracks that will lock you into a hypnotic state on the dancefloor or indeed anywhere you choose to experience them; punchy, enigmatic, deep, evolving techno with an extra-terrestrial heart….

Info:

For some people the way to cope with the troubling times we live in is to switch off and hope the bullshit goes away. For others it's time to switch on, get angry, rage and reflect our woes back at us in a dark jagged mirror of sound.

Formshift incites a riot in three tracks of dark, jarring, powerful Electronics; fuelled by sheer disgust at our race's treatment of each other and our planet and our increasingly falling short of our potential.

Disorder brings three raw hits of truth, it might make you feel uncomfortable.....and so you should.

Info:

French sonic sorcerer Franck Kartell is back with ‘Alaska’, his fourth full length album and third vinyl outing on UK imprint Bass Agenda Recordings.

Just like it’s country namesake the album presents a diverse landscape; spacious and enthralling, sparse at times and dense at others.
 
Departing in some tracks from the particularly dark vibes of his last two Chris Marker inspired albums, Kartell guides the listener through ten lovingly crafted tracks; riding waves of cold light and refreshing beauty, soaring high and lifting the spirit, then swooping down into rugged geological like audio structures below.

As soon as the needle touches the record you find yourself looking through an ethereal lens, perhaps that of a silent drone, slowly filming the landscape from above. You are transfixed, all senses fully engaged as the drama unfolds before you; struck by the magical mystery of how a slowly rotating piece of wax on your turntable can make you feel this way…

Quite possibly the finest album by one of the underground’s most talented electronic music composers.

PLASTIKMAN - Ask Yourself ( Alavux Remix @burnstudios)

Solid Steel (24th May) Following on from last year's treatment of 'Paul's Boutique' (by DJ Food, Cheeba and Moneyshot), United States of Audio does the same with De la Soul's groundbreaking album 3 Feet High and Rising. It's not just a mix, but more like an audio documentary about an album that is also about to celebrate it's 25th anniversary. In his own words;
'Several years in the making and including around 100 tracks, this is my personal tribute to De La Soul's '3 Feet High and Rising'. Using original sample sources, album tracks, interviews and rarities, 'How High's The Water Mama' tells the story of one of hip hop's most influential albums.
When De La Soul's debut album dropped in 1989 I was ten years old. Yet, by some stroke of amazing good fortune a cassette copy of '3 Feet High and Rising' found its way into my hands thanks to my best mate's older brother (though I'm pretty sure said brother had no idea of this fact!). The music was a revelation and had a significant influence in shaping my musical tastes - in fact I can't think of any other album that has had such a profound effect on me as this one. Thus '3 Feet High and Rising' holds a special place in my musical affections. Now, some twenty-five years after its original release, it's time to pay my respect to Pos, Dove, Mase, and Prince Paul...'
