Mr. Oscar Mulero returns to Token in good company. At the beginning of 2013 he formed the ‘Spherical Coordinates’ project with Christian Wünsch.
After 2 widely acclaimed EP’s on Mulero’s Pole imprint, they now land on Token, with the ‘Vector Projection EP’, a new impressive 4-tracker.

Mulero & Wünsch join software and hardware to create a stellar EP that explores the deeper side of techno, on ‘SCFLS-05’ & ‘SCFLS-11’, but also hits back hard on the rolling ‘SCFLS-12’ & brutal ‘SCFLS-17’.

Space is the place.

Vector Projection EP

Spherical Coordinates - SCFLS-12

This one started as a jam with a very static groove to begin with, Kick + Pulse Snare, and then the bass stabs to match. I had been spending my sort of newly isolated days new to Berlin, not knowing that many people just yet, and locking myself away in the studio. Watching plenty of John Carpenter movies (my favorite film maker) and digesting a whole load of 70's progressive rock & 80's film score soundtracks.
The whole thing came together pretty quickly, the arpeggio played out that way because I had been practising that scale and was finally able to make the run. 
I can't go into too much detail here without writing an essay in the universal powers but at some point and the same if for all of us who create in whatever ways we do, the artist becomes the instrument and at that perfect moment the universe and the artist are one.
This was the final production to leave the studio in 2012. Just before i turned off the computer for the last time and headed back to London from Berlin to meet my sister for Christmas on the 23rd of December. 
7 days later Jonny White Calls me on my birthday and asks to sign it to No.19. 

I recently did an interview with one of my favorite electronic music journalists Marcus Barnes to have an in depth chat on the creation of this track - read that full interview here:

BTER02 - Tomohiko Sagae - Postgamum Depression EP

Nicole has returned to Drumcode all guns blazing with her new ‘Bittersweet EP’. The A- side ‘I Know Where I’ve Been’, is a deep rolling techno machine that uses a constant building percussion loop that eventually explodes into some serious funky signature Moudaber techno! ‘Bittersweet’ is a techno belter that uses a hypnotic synth rhythm that will take the listener into another world. The repetitive claps induce a flurry of energy and excitement whilst supported by the crisp highs.

After last years ‘Vector Projection EP’, there just had to be a follow up at some point. Oscar Mulero & Christian Wünsch continue on the same path with this new ‘Kinematics Equations EP’. The recipe stays the same: 4 spacey but powerful cuts, straight for the floor. Stellar.

Kinematics Equations EP

TOKEN45 - Spherical Coordinates - Kinematics Equations EP

SLAM | Pattern A3 (inc Jonas Kopp, Bleak & Charles Fenckler Remixes)
[SOMA412D]

1.	Slam – Pattern A3
2.	Slam - Pattern A3 (Jonas Kopp Remix)
3.	Slam - Pattern A3 (Bleak’s Modular Interpretation)
4.	Slam - Pattern A3 (Charles Fenckler Remix) 

The first single to be taken from Slam’s truly astounding upcoming album ‘Reverse Proceed’ sees the hypnotic Pattern A3 alongside some of Techno’s biggest and brightest new stars adding their own versions also.

Slam have chosen one of the major standout tracks from Reverse Proceed to set the tone prior to the album’s full release in late October. With the album built around the concept of varying sequences, it’s fitting that the first single be given such an apt name. Taken directly form the Cirklon sequencer pattern that helped design the track Pattern A3 features heavily modulating synths that seems to have a fully organic life of their own set against the typical backdrop of 909 drums. 

Following on from Slam’s original, Soma have enlisted the help of 3 of the label’s favourite contemporary Techno artists. Argentina’s Jonas Kopp is first up on remix duties and deliver an absolute pile-driver of a remix with his signature thudding drums and machine-gun like percussion firing rapidly against subtle and stripped synth elements.
 
Swedish based Bleak is a very welcome addition to this package as he offers his own ‘Modular Interpretation’. Heavy sub bass and intelligent drum work outs combine with yet more subtle hints of the original’s synth elements to give a more deep and introspective version. 

Rounding off the EP is latest Soma artist Charles Fenckler. The young French artist is making waves in Techno at the moment and has certainly delivered on this project, giving his version a much more minimalistic, stripped and ends up with a solid dance floor burner.

A1: Shifted - Gates

AA2: Samuli Kemppi - Detached Object

Release date: Monday 20 February 2012

After launching in fine fashion with Luke Slater wielding his L.B. Dub Corp alias against textured cuts from ASC, the second instalment of Mote-Evolver’s Parallel Series presents more forward-thinking sets this time from Shifted and Finish vanguard Samuli Kemppi.

2011 witnessed an exciting renaissance for UK techno, Shifted being one of several British acts to ascend to prominence. His Mote021 Drained and Mote024 Control EP’s, introduced and cemented the Briton’s taut production capabilities, marked by hypnotic rhythms and a rich bassy pallet.

Connected to his much anticipated debut album in April, Shifted’s tracks on the Parallel Series surge over a sunken heartbeat, but where searing hats steer “Gates” into an entrancing floor workout, “Spire” knits industrial resonances into a penetrating aural- apocalypse.

This is Samuli Kemmpi’s third outing on Mote-Evolver, having released a couplet of stand-out 12”s—Dark Matter / Wormhole and Quantum Mechanics EP—back in 2010. “Trans Neptunian” matches a tough and punchy pulse to cheeky hat hisses, laden with urgent piano stabs to deliver a perpetual piece of techno, as anxious as it is infectious. “Detached Object” on the other hand is more progressive. Here a choppy, tumultuous melody gathers momentum over a deep and rolling sub before gentle crashes carry it into a bass-heavy descent.

The first release from Sweden's Random Island recordings offers three tracks of pure-bred techno from label owner Inter Gritty. Nihad Tule provides a stunning remix that turns the raw, Chicago-esque pounding of Kiska into a dramatic, flowing techno builder. And finally, Huemul drops the pace and sets off to explore the deeper side of techno, drenched in drones, chords and deep bass.
