Blank Code is Detroit, USA outfit that have released music by artists like Bas Mooy, Drumcell, Mike Parker, Audio Injection / Truncate and many more.

The Blank Code co-founder Anthony Jimenez has also released on Mike Derer's Northern Parallels and Detroit Underground, while he has performed alongside Regis, Silent Servant and Developer. "Insurgent" is a spacey and tubular trip with warping acid and intense alarm-like, looping tones. The robotic vocal hit adds an unexpected twist with chanting sensation to this dance floor devastator.

Brian Sanhaji is a veteran producer and engineer in Berlin who returns to Blank Code, as well as having appeared on Chris Liebing's CLR, Heiko Laux's Kanzleramt, Droid Records and running the SENSOR and EgoTon labels. "Phasis" is a modular ride of freaky frequencies and crunching percussion. Bursting with energy and raw power, it showcases his fine analogue production with a sliver of experimentation.

Linear System is a Spanish artist who has released music on esteemed labels like Edit Select, Ben Sims' Symbolism and Dynamic Reflection. "Shape Shifter" is a brooding juggernaut made of raw tension that culminates in pounding, crushed drums as its main focus. Heavy and hypnotic it draws attention with its apocalyptic menace, but its ultimately a sharpened, underground club weapon.

Mexico's Luis Flores is another seasoned beat-maker who has released on Blank Code previously and also lists Ricardo Garduno's Illegal Alien, Emmauel's ARTS and Truncate's imprint. "Man Vs Nature" begins with a shuffling kick and swelling sub bass, followed by sci-fi bleeps and abstract sound effects. Almost cinematic overall, the scything synth creates a dystopian feeling of intimidating electronic growls.

San Francisco's Max Gardner has over a decade of releases and is the co-owner of Peer Audio. He has also appeared on Northern Parallels, Oktave as well as remixing Drumcell and Truncate. "Delamination" has a deep and jackin' stance from the word go, while its vitality increases from the sputtering hi-hats and fizzing touches. Steady, muted claps add even more vigour and the metallic stabs create a haunting, emotional experience.

Takaaki Itoh is one of Japan's most prominent techno artists who has released on Bas Mooy's Mord, Adriana Lopez's Grey Report, Developer's Modularz and Lewis Fautzi's Faut Section to name only a few. "Vital Blind" uses its quirky, stuttering hits to shape a spine of thumping percussion. Pulsing, modular-fuelled accents and electronic signals frame the sonic airwaves while being guided by a grungy, throbbing bassline.

"This mix is a shorter cut of my set at Solace at the start of April. To me, this was one of, if not my favourite gig to date. I haven't seen a dancefloor in Naarm/Melbourne rock that good in a long time. There are plenty of driving, mind twisted tracks in this set, with many unreleased tunes from the usual suspects (Neo, Obscur, Hasvat Informant etc)". - Connor Wall

The term "artist to watch" gets thrown around a lot these days, especially with the volume of new artists entering the scene with unprecedented access to tracks, information, and technology. Often, however, it's a certain attitude that elevates the true heads above the groundswell of an ocean of new artists, and Connor Wall is unquestionably of this ilk.

Inspired from past, present and future experiences - Connor's creative constancy has allowed him to shape his sound into the organic, weighty, and effective tracks you can hear on labels like Treatment, Float, Phorum and WSNWG.  There is a potent, heart-palpitating sonic representation that accompanies anything Connor does, and part of the reason why he is such an exciting prospect leading into the future. His devotion to a particular sound and approach has driven his ability to grow rapidly since entering the scene just a few years ago, and it is this obsession that will continue to allow him to blossom. He’s an artist to watch by all accounts, and whether it’s DJing or producing, he is emerging as an essential feature of Australia.
