DJ Tennis - Robot Heart Burning Man 2013

<b>Tom Bonaty - Addicted Podcast #23 (Between Lines)</b>

This year’s final episode comes from Prologue’s mastermind Tom Bonaty. Both Tom and his label have become somewhat iconic for the type of techno music they’re representing: deep, repetitive, hypnotic. The mix he has recorded for us shows the same attitude, with his signature sound flowing through the speakers (don’t forget to bring good ones, by the way).


-	Prologue, the label you’re running together with your partner Michael Kranawetter, is synonymous with all things deep and hypnotic when it comes to modern techno music. Tell us how it all started. What were your incentives for launching Prologue after taking a break with your previous label Treibsand?
-	Simply my personal passion for Music. I was looking for something I can contribute to the music scene with in order to support good music. A label like Prologue gives me these opportunities and in the end you are creating an image or brand for a specific genre. I am very happy about Prologue and the image behind it. But it has been massive work the last 5 years.

-	You have a close connection to a bunch of Italian artists, with the likes of Donato Dozzy, Claudio PRC, Dino Sabatini and Neel representing what Prologue is best known for. How did you get in touch with them? What was it that brought your attention to these guys in the first place?
-	They are all together great artists with the same big passion for music. We started with Dino and no surprise after a while we got more and more connections between the Italian community. The network for that kind of music we love so much is not as big as it seems, even in Italy everybody knows each other. Except Claudio, he was not involved as much in this Italian network in the beginning, we (Cio D´Or and me) just recognized him as well as one of those young Italian diamonds and Prologue started to support him and his music. But it’s not just about Italians. Cassegrain, Iori, Mike Parker, Brendon Moeller, Milton Bradley, Cio D´Or… All these artists shaped the image of Prologue. In the meantime we have a massive good community with different directions and styles. That’s how a label should look like. And we keep our eyes always open because I also love to give newcomers a chance to release on Prologue. Lena Deen, Notfromearth or the new EP with Etapp Kyle, Artefakt and Mod21 is an excellent example for that. Further we are very happy to have soon Edit Select with a complete album on Prologue. So highly established producers like Tony Scott trusting in us.  

-	Is it kind of funny that, despite having been a DJ for 20+ years and running a well-recognized label, you still don’t put out your own music. Neither does Michael. Do you reckon this will ever happen? Are you willing to do so?
-	I get this question pretty often. Say never “No” but at the moment I can’t imagine to produce music. I simply have no time for this. Prologue is a shocking hobby as I always say and I have a regular job as well which takes a lot of time. In a first step I have to manage the label and the bookings in my leisure. With all the work behind a label I don’t see any chance to produce music.  And my claim on my own is very high and I guess I need to invest massive time to get an own EP on Prologue. Same with DJing. I don’t want to play regular as a DJ. It’s not my intention to be a professional DJ. Just if I personally feel that could be fun, than I do it. 

-	Our friend and fellow Ukrainian Etapp Kyle has recently joined Prologue booking agency. I’m sure this partnership won’t be limited to bookings only. Is there anything else the world has to know about?
-	Yes he is a great artist and a nice guy. Unfortunately, I haven’t met him personally yet but pretty sure I will soon. There will be a first VA EP January 2014 with Etapp. http://soundcloud.com/prologue/prg034-v-a-prologue  He made a really great track. So a good start and yes we would be happy to support Etapp in the future as well. 

-	Tell us more about your mix for Addicted podcast. What’s the idea behind it?
-	Honestly, there is no idea behind it... Just tracks I really like, just tracks that fit perfectly together in order to start a journey. A mix should be always a journey. That is the only idea. Hopefully it is :-)

Daniel Avery - All I Need (Roman Flügel 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.

Sam Paganini - Rave - Drumcode - DCCD10

Fresh from the new and note-worthy Axe on Wax stable, this Various Artists EP has a bit of bite. 
AOW has been turning heads with previous releases - from the likes of Rhythm Operator - they have been pushing that chunky and powerful house sound that's meant to keep you dancing well into the small hours, their music is a mixture of the raw and physical with the deep and texturally interesting.


A1. Cera Alba - Jux
First on the record we have a low-slung groove, with some divine moving pads. Cera Alba's "Jux" track features all you would expect from an AOW record with heavy industrial sounds set against the backdrop of a dream-like chord sequence, before veering off and taking things into tougher terrain. Cera Alba is a fast rising talent and one to keep your eye on.


A2. Jux - Oli Furness Remix
Next on this EP we have the prolific Oli Furness. A man who is in growing demand and Oli doesn't disappoint. He steps up with a remix of Cera's original, taking things into heavier territory - as he so often does - and with his usual flair for the dramatic. Heavy kicks and snappy snares pave the way as a slow filtered loop rises to reveal his trademark rolling bass. As a resident at Sankey's in Manchester it is no surprise much of this man's work is designed to put a big system to the test. Nice use of the original shot sound frantically dancing around keeps this remix aimed firmly at keeping the floor moving and grooving.


B1. Rosenhaft - Unplugged Vibez
If the A1 was the beauty on this EP, this track is the beast. Quick to start and relentless in energy. Think early mornings with Kerry - with a very danceable walking bass line keeping pace for you alongside crisp 909 rides keeping you company and dictating the groove. This one is all about its original dusty feel, keeping things steady whilst enhancing the sound as it progresses. Even with a distinctly familiar sounding palette the drum programming and arrangement keep this track from ever sounding too comfortable and certainly keep the listener wanting more.


B2. Unplugged Vibez - Kindimmer's Zen Remix
Rounding off the EP - Kindimmer keeps the dusty undertone of Rosenhafts original, coupling hi-pitched ethereal sounds amongst his Sonics. This track is more about balance and is most cleverly done, with subtle changes and crafted rhythms. The build of tension is subtle but is enough to keep listeners focused as he creates a beautiful soundscape laid down with truly whole beats. This will be a firm favourite for DJ's who like to dig deeper.

Pete Tong & Kingstown - I Lost My Mind

Brawther is one of the most consistent and enjoyable producers in the game, taking his time to get it spot on each and every. His catalogue may not be vast, but it's all killer and no filler – and for those of you who weren't paying attention at the back, a cheat sheet is on its way. Endless is due soon on Chez Damier's sub-imprint Balance, a 3xLP compilation taking stock of Brawther's releases thus far. Oh, plus an as-yet-unheard cut for good measure: this one right here.

Brawther's dub of "Khawuleza" retains the groove and wholesome vibe, but leaves only the faintest trace of the vocals intact, letting Vusa Mkhaya float between the skippy, sticky, squelchy filter. It's warm house music par excellence; where the balmy original felt kissed by afternoon sun, this dub is a fast-forward to that special place at the end of the party where day is breaking anew, full of promise.

Hot on the heels of his recent groundbreaking Fabric 64 compilation, Supplement Facts bossman Guy Gerber is now ready to get "Steady" with a brand new EP and worldwide tour.

Acclaimed photographer Martin Zalba Ibáñez has been tapped to provide a new series of B&W photos for the iconic Supplement Facts covers. The first one can be seen on Gerber's first release on his own Supplement Facts label in almost two years, which sees him pairing with dOP frontman Jaw for 'Steady,' a melodic track filled with soaring synth lines, Guy's emotional bass guitar chords, and Jaw's incredibly performance featuring his trademark eerie, distorted vocals.

Rounding out the release is a beefed up Midland remix of Steady - perfect for peak time dance floor destroying. The vinyl B- side is a re-edit of the Golden Sun & the Silver Moon, a dreamy standout track off of the Fabric compilation (and Guy's alternate name for the Fabric mix itself) featuring vocals by Clarion North of Footprintz (look for their upcoming album on Visionquest soon).


Guy Gerber feat. Clarian- The Golden Sun And The Silver Moon (GG & Clarian Edit)

Guy Gerber feat. Jaw - Steady (Midland Remix)

For the first single from a 6-track EP from Montreal's Clarian (who is also one half of Footprintz), the Canadian reached well beyond the border to collaborate with Tel Aviv-born, Madrid-based producer Guy Gerber on "Claire." Gerber has been a major player on Israel's electronic scene since 2006, running his own Supplemental Facts label and infusing traces of minimal techno, tech house, downtempo and deep house in his productions, while remaining singular in his approach. Clarian's vocal contributions were at the heart of Gerber's progressive house-leaning Fabric mix from last year, which joined the likes of Ricardo Villalobos and Omar-S of artists that turned in single-artist mixes to the series. "Claire" starts amid a queasy vocal snippet (with Clarian's French whisper lodged in at the midpoint) and threatens to go darker and deeper. But a steady handclap and glimmering melodic line uplifts and casts light across this seven-minute track.

Matthew is a genius! The second release on my label - All Day I Dream

Fur Die Liebe (original) - Matthew Dekay and Lee Burridge

Being one of the most in-demand Techno DJs of our times, Ben Klock needs little introduction. His name has been closely associated with Berlin’s legendary club Berghain since 2005. His monthly residency has formed the backdrop to his international success, providing an invaluable platform for his ability to create a room rather than just play to it.

Much of his early career was marked by marathon sets – a signature that played a considerable role in nurturing his skills and reputation – but even the more compressed sets he shares today evidence an intricate narrative and sense of flow that defines him as a DJ. It was these inherent abilities that led him to compile the fabric 66 compilation in 2012, before winning the BBC Radio 1’s Essential Mix of the Year award in 2015.

His releases on Ostgut Ton have become landmarks in the imprint’s history. 2009’s “Dawning”, the first of his collaborations with Marcel Dettmann kickstarted the label itself and remains a stand-out track in its discography. Another release of particular note is the Before One EP including “Subzero”, which many techno lovers still refer to as their gateway track into the whole genre itself. For many, however, it is his album One (2009) that best captures Klock’s talents as a producer. His skills as a remixer have also seen him rework tracks by a wide variety of artists, including Kerri Chandler, Depeche Mode, Robert Hood and Kenny Larkin.

Additionally, Klock curates with great passion his own label Klockworks, founded in 2006. With releases from DVS1, Stef Mendesidis, The Advent, Sterac, Etapp Kyle, Temudo and many more Klockworks became a synonym for unique, high quality Techno.

In 2017 Ben started his own event series PHOTON which is a unique concept show that blends light, architecture and music. Since then he toured PHOTON at special venues in major cities around the world such as Printworks (London), Gashouder (Amsterdam), Arca (Sao Paolo), to name a few. It quickly became a new standard for audio visual electronic music events. In 2023 the project returns after a pandemic induced break with a brand new visual and artistic concept.
