Continuation of the podcast series “Electro To The Masses” by Sergey Timoshov in the first independent music compilation. Including selected examples of the style, the compilation consists of 11 tracks that convey the spirit and energy of early electro, immersing the listener in sci-fi stories with a dark futuristic shade. Be careful, do not lose the connection in space and time when listening.

Each track of the compilation reflects the era of electro's ascent to the peak of popularity. Starting in the 80s, having separated from hip-hop, electro became an independent style, the sound of which formed the image of modern electronic music along with techno, house, acid and other canonical styles, while using a very ascetic set of instruments, for example, the familiar to many Roland TR-808, which became the hallmark of the style.

We are proud to present this release in our label's catalog and are especially glad to have become part of the Electro To The Masses distribution machine.

Продолжение серии подкастов “Электро В Массы” от Сергея Тимошова в первой самостоятельной музыкальной компиляции. Включая в себя отборные образцы стиля, компиляция состоит из 11 треков которые передают дух и энергетику раннего электро, погружая слушателя в научно-фантастические сюжеты с мрачно футуристичным оттенком. Осторожно, при прослушивании не потеряйте связь в пространстве и времени.

Каждый трек компиляции отражает эпоху восхождения электро на пик популярности. Начиная с 80х годов, отделившись от хип хопа, электро стал самостоятельным стилем, звук которого, формировал образ современной электронной музыки наравне с техно, хаусом, эйсидом и другими каноничными стилями, используя при этом весьма аскетичный набор инструментов, например знакомый многим Roland TR-808, который стал визитной карточкой стиля.

Kalcagni - Target Practice [Cosmoba // CMB003]

After a bit of a breather, Kalcagni is back with another tasty batch of electro delights for his Cosmoba label.
Kicking things off is “Target Practice,” a no-nonsense dance floor weapon. Think chunky analog basslines paired with eerie strings, all held together by rock-solid beats and a live break workout that keeps it raw and energetic. “Improv” follows up with punchy chords, sharp synth stabs, and deep, rumbling bass—built to rattle walls and fill rooms.
On the flip, “Clean Shirt” features a wobbly, warping bassline that occasionally steps aside for lush, stacked pads, creating a hypnotic push-and-pull dynamic. While “Drift n Shift” closes with smooth minor 7th chords, dissonant basslines, and 808-driven grooves.

Tracklist :
A1. Target Practice 
A2. Improv
B1. Clean Shirt
B2. Drift n Shift

TL PREMIERE : Kalcagni - Clean Shirt [Cosmoba]

READ > inverted-audio.com/premiere-dl-ms-regressive-behaviour

Colombian imprint Furatena return with 'AX-V1', a razor-sharp various artists dispatch aimed straight at the post-industrial underbelly of the club...Our pick lands on /DL/MS/’s ‘Regressive Behaviour’, a piece of sonic brinkmanship clocking in at a neurotic 146 BPM. The track kicks off like an alarm from another planet, a strobe-lit march of arpeggiated distress signals and saturated low-end mechanics. FX-smeared synths squeal through the mix like panic-stricken comms in deep space, while its haunted textures hang like ozone in a malfunctioning cryochamber.

/DL/MS/ – Regressive Behaviour [Furatena]

“Broken Circuit” captures an important moment in Alex Gordiy’s artistic journey. Created in 2024, these tracks represent the final pieces of his work in the electro genre during that era. After holding onto them for some time, Alex now brings them to the audience, closing one chapter while opening another. The EP pulses with raw energy and emotion, offering a powerful farewell to a defining creative period.

Commuter / EKATA - Split [Ethos Records // ER010]

Previews : https://soundcloud.com/ethosrecords/er010-split-commuter-ekata-previews

French: 
D’un côté, l’élégance rétro-futuriste de Commuter, nourrie par les premières vibrations de l’électro et une fascination pour Kraftwerk ou Depeche Mode. De l’autre, l’univers sombre et cinématographique d’EKATA, résidente londonienne et exploratrice de grooves dystopiques inspirés par la science-fiction. Ces deux trajectoires distinctes convergent sur le split EP signé par le label rennais Ethos Records, attendu pour le 27 juin.

À travers quatre morceaux, deux par artiste, le split met en lumière des interprétations singulières de l’électro : Commuter livre des pièces où des mélodies acérées et des rythmes impeccables dialoguent avec des influences new wave et EBM. EKATA, quant à elle, nous emmène dans un récit sonore immersif, porté par des basses abyssales et des synthés angoissants.

Ce split EP, à la croisée des époques et des sensibilités, est une ode à la richesse intemporelle de l’électro.

English:
On one side, the retro-futuristic elegance of Commuter, nourished by the first vibrations of electro and a fascination for Kraftwerk and Depeche Mode. On the other, the dark, cinematic world of EKATA, a London resident and explorer of dystopian grooves inspired by science fiction. These two distinct trajectories converge on the split EP signed to Rennes-based label Ethos Records, due out on 27 June.

The project features four tracks, two from each artist, highlighting singular interpretations of electro: Commuter delivers pieces where sharp melodies and impeccable rhythms dialogue with new wave and EBM influences. EKATA, for her part, takes us on an immersive sonic journey, driven by abyssal bass and eerie synths.

This split EP, at the crossroads of eras and sensibilities, is an ode to the timeless richness of electro.
