blk. - Keycaps (Original Mix)

We are delighted to be releasing blk’s first EP release of 2022 entitled “LIMITLESS” which is available for pre-order on our bandcamp through the link in our bio now !

The concept behind this EP is a celebration of just how much blk. has achieved since joining us here at Reboot and is just the beginning of what’s to come from this man in the distant future 🔮

This release drops exactly one week before blk. makes his hugely awaited headline appearance at a SOLD OUT Telegraph Building in Belfast next Friday alongside T78 , Mav666 , DJ Speed X Frequency and our very own Reboot DJs which is shaping up to be the Irish club show of the year 👀

This show sold out in record timing and blk. had felt it was only right to dedicate his track “Telegraphed” from the EP to the incredible venue and their will be some amazing scenes to come when he drops it there next weekend ⚡️

Full release comes today (25th of March 2022) at 1pm with some premieres along the way !

blk. - Let Go Of ME

We’ve got a fresh Friday premiere from one of Ireland’s most in demand DJs and producers, blk. The young DJ has been causing a stir as of late, selling shows all over the country and in the UK. Today we premiere his track ‘Under Your Skin’ from his ‘Limitless’ Reboot Records EP.

Few Irish act’s have risen to such heights in such a short period of time, blk. has gone onto sell out all over the country show’s with the Reboot crew and even across the pond with sell out show’s in Scotland and England.

The newcomer has recently been announced for some massive festivals such as Emerge Festival alongside Disclosure, Patrick Topping & more, and EP Festival, being one of the only Irish electronic acts for the festival. Sold out shows at Index and Shine Belfast in the Telegraph have shown the youngster is well capable of selling out the most in demand venues in the country.

Outside of the club blk. has been receiving a lot of attention for his releases with tracks amassing over 600,00 plays on Soundcloud and massive. His track ‘Enter The Dragon’ has become a cult favourite within Ireland and is still racking up the plays and receiving massive reactions at gigs.

Today we premiere the track ‘Under Your Skin’ from blk.’s ‘Limitless EP’ on Reboot Records. The young producers dabbles in breakbeats for this track and delves into euphoric pads. The track quickly bursts into a frenzy as a gabber like kick quickly enters the equation. A floating synth line floats over the top of the madness to polish the tracks off.

The Bells · Jeff Mills T.A.M.F. remix

Schranz and Its Connection to Jeff Mills’ “The Bells”

Connection to Jeff Mills’ “The Bells”: Jeff Mills’ The Bells (1997, Purpose Maker, PM-002) isn’t pure Schranz but heavily influenced its development. Its raw, hypnotic loop and pounding 4/4 kick resonated with the harder, minimal techno sound that Schranz built upon. Here’s how it ties in:
* Influence on Schranz Producers: Mills’ use of repetitive, functional loops in The Bells inspired Schranz’s stripped-down aesthetic. Its 140 BPM tempo and relentless drive aligned with Schranz’s ethos, making it a proto-Schranz track for DJs like Liebing or Boris S.
* Club Play: The Bells was a staple in late ’90s hard techno sets, bridging Detroit techno’s soul with Schranz’s aggression. Its iconic bell riff added a melodic hook that Schranz often avoided but still absorbed as a reference for tension-building.
* Remixes and Legacy: Later Schranz DJs (e.g., Eric Sneo, DJ Amok) remixed or drew from The Bells’ energy. For example, the 2006 10th Anniversary The Bells 12” (PM-020) had a louder, Schranz-friendly master that fit harder sets.

Original Pressing Context: As mentioned earlier, The Bells appeared on the Kat Moda EP (1997, Purpose Maker, PM-002, 12” vinyl). Its raw production—gritty kicks, unpolished mastering—mirrors Schranz’s unrefined edge. Schranz DJs likely gravitated to originals or early represses for their analog warmth, though the track’s quieter mix (compared to 2000s Schranz cuts) required DJs to crank the gain.

Where to Find Schranz-Inspired The Bells:
* Original 1997 Vinyl: Hunt on Discogs/Reverb for PM-002 ($20–$50). Check matrix: PM 002-A/B (RE I) NSC.
* Streaming: The 1997 version (on Spotify/Beatport) retains the raw vibe Schranz fans love.
* Modern Schranz Comps: Look for The Bells in hard techno mixes or CLR/Tresor compilations. Check X posts or SoundCloud for recent Schranz sets featuring it.

Schranz Today (Oct 2025): Schranz remains a niche but vibrant scene. Recent X posts highlight new releases on labels like Schranz Total or Hard Drive, with DJs like Fernanda Martins and Luciid pushing 150+ BPM bangers. The Bells still gets play in retro sets or as a remixed bootleg in Schranz raves.

Deep Dive: Schranz – The Hard Techno Beast 🦖
Since you’re doubling down on Schranz, let’s go full throttle. This is the raw, pounding heart of German hard techno—no fluff, just facts, history, essentials, and where to score it today (Oct 16, 2025). The Bells connection? It’s the proto-Schranz blueprint—hypnotic loops + brutal kick = Schranz DNA. Ready? Gas it up!

Schranz 101: What the Hell Is It?
* Born: Late 1990s, Frankfurt/Germany. Evolved from Jeff Mills/Rene Pawlowitz-style minimal techno into a weaponized sound.
* Tempo: 140–160+ BPM (faster = harder life).
* Sound: Distorted 909 kicks that hurt, razor-sharp hi-hats, zero melody (unless it’s a stab), industrial noise loops. Think: a jackhammer in a warehouse.
* Name Origin: Chris Liebing (2001) called it “Schranz” to mock haters saying hard techno was just “schrammel” (grating noise). DJs flipped it into pride.
* Ethos: Anti-EDM, sweat-soaked, 6AM warehouse raves. No peaks—just relentless drive.
