TRAXSOURCE Techno Essentials 3

We are Frankfurt… and we are „ STILL HERE “!

The 1995 launched Techno and House label founded by Toni Rios, Chris Liebing, Andre Walter and Tommy Bingel operated until 1999 before all four went their own ways.
In 2006 Toni Rios and Andre Walter reanimated the legendary label and amongst own releases they also opened their doors for aspiring artrist from the former Techno capital.
 
26 years after launching SOAP Records, Frankfurt is no longer home to a bunch of the most iconic clubs in Europe like it once was but the underground never slept. 
Under the polished facade of the financial metropolis there has always survived a vivid scene maintaining the old spirit.
 
In 2021 after a long pandemical dry spell Toni Rios decided to use his influence in order to unite forces and to bring Frankfurt back on track.
The compilation called " STILL HERE " showcases local artists such as Toni Rios & Ben Shine, Sascha Dive, Drag & Drop, Daniele Casa, Who Cares, Roomservice, TOSZ, Reiner Liwenc, November Reign, techMOUSE & Charles Silence, Le Jardin and proves that the central German city still offers international quality when it comes to electronic music.

Toni Rios now also offers in 2021 – the digital age makes it possible – a platform to the current atist and newly producers from Frankfurt. 
Just as 25 years ago when Toni Rios received small gigs arranged by other DJs, Toni now takes care himself of the new generation. The circle is therefore closed, with a new compilation on his own label Soap Records, followed by an extended collection of new associated EP´s. Let yourself be surprised.

Sascha Dive - Day Of Eternity  Snippet

Continuing the Reframed Compilation, Framed Realities presents the 3rd edition of the series. Again, label makers Squep, Reto Erni & Christian Schiemann deliver 3 original and deep cuts made for the dancefloor.

Christian Schiemann - Feels Like (Original Mix)

Butane reworks Everybody's Talkin' from his back catalog to meet the times, giving it an extra-sketchy pandemic twist, while the B-side implores everyone to 'Keep Burning'. We may have taken the skenic route, but we're almost at the finish line. Hang in there folks.

Butane - Keep Burning [Extrasketch 028]

Marco Bailey - Fat Rhythm (Original Mix)

Producer, remixer, DJ & label owner, multifaceted artist Igor Vicente is turning into a truly global electronic music proposition. Vicente’s unique sound is built up over 4 or 5 hours creating a smooth & unpredictable blend of House & Techno, full of effects often creating surprise in his sets.
Growing up in Mons Belgium, Vicente grew up listening to Michael Jackson, Bobby Brown KC & The Sunshine Band & Warren G. His passion for electronic music started in his teens, when he first discovered the sounds of Richie Hawtin, Dave Clarke, Funk D Void, Kenny Hawkes, Dj Sneak & Derrick Carter. His infatuation with all things electronic led to the creation of his now legendary Wildfamily parties, which saw the likes of Jamie Jones, Clive Henry, Seth Troxler & Shaun Reeves
play among other DJ friends.
2011 saw the birth of Ultrasone; the duo producing tracks for big labels including Visionquest, Supplement Facts, Hot Creations & Maison d’etre with big remixes on Saved, Get Physical & Air London.
2013 saw Vicente put Ultrasone to bed to focus on his growing solo career. Founding his own new brand & label State of Flow, it went from strength to strength from the first vinyl release from LYE in 2015. State of Flow has also now developed into a famed club night brand & his Wildfamily parties also continue at Kompass club, now with a new Wildfamily digital label imprint designed for 'good party music'. His residencies at Belgium’s elite clubs Cafe d’Anvers & Fuse firmly imprinted Vicente in the
electronic dance music scene.
Production wise, Igor's most revered releases have included Hot Creations bomb 'The Knight' with a remix by Jamie Jones & his track with Vernon Bara 'Don't Feel No Way' on Visionquest. Labels including Hot Creations & Get Physical records continue to release his music.
Anja Schneider says “Igor Vicente has honestly been the DJ who has impressed me most with his mind- blowing sets, I can't keep this secret & wish that everyone will hear his amazing talent”.
So what's new for 2018? Igor's forthcoming releases for Spring 2018 include 'Endless EP' on Get Physical Music & 'Amberes EP' on Sante's Avotre. Also keep your ears peeled for Igor's next bomb, his remix of Los Pastores 'Challenger' forthcoming on Decay Records, already getting major props
from Jamie Jones.

Butane - Played Out  [Extrasketch 30]

"An emotionally charged journey through smoked-filled rooms and packed-out corridors; lasers, strobes and wide eyes."


We kick off our Premieres service this week with Narciss - Ludmilla. For future Premiere interest with Ismus contact premieres@ismusberlin.com.


Artist: Narciss
Title: Ludmilla
Label: Lobster Theremin
Catalogue: LT083
Format: Vinyl and Digital
Release date: 04/06/21


Be sure and buy it here - https://lobstertheremin.com/album/dear-diary-ep


As detailed in his interview with German publication Froh Froh, “the interview with Narciss was different. Colorful Hawaiian shirt instead of matt black, nicotine chewing gum instead of butt. In terms of content between kitsch, cutie, but also serious - no intrusive promo.”

This freshness truly comes across in his latest EP for Lobster Theremin. Dear Diary - releasing on June 4th - is an emotionally charged journey through smoked-filled rooms and packed-out corridors; lasers, strobes and wide eyes. As much a throwback to the golden era of trance as it is an ode to the producers techno aesthetic, it encapsulates an energy release - an escape from the grimness of the mundane, the fear of contemporary society left at the door as we venture further front left.

‘Ludmilla’ gets things started; a cut of tranced-out, progressive techno that builds and builds, emotional vocal stabs (“I need you”) further enhancing the connection between body and mind, listener and selector. ‘Tall People’ follows a similar route - deeper into the trance revival that has seen artists like Bliss Inc, New Members and Marlon Hoffstad producing some timelessly similar euphoria - it’s scenic techno, if the scene was an anime figure racing across a field on horseback.

The steady 4x4 rhythms are replaced on ‘It Gets Easier’; fast-paced sentiment that floats somewhere between breaks and garage, wrapped up in that signature trancey texture, before 'Blicke' featuring Ikki Mel shows us the door with a completely different take on the previous three moods; this time offering up an altogether harder showcasing of the rave sound with its classic synth stabs and uncompromising kicks.

After featuring on the Digital Distortions 100/20 compilation with his track "Patient Zero", Miskin is back for a full EP on Kitchen Spasm.

Floating somewhere between deep techno and dreamy house, these tracks channel the essence of the original London tech house movement—pioneered by lables and parties like Wiggle, The End, and Surreal—reimagined with a modern twist.

DC Dubz - Undeground Sounds - 09.02.21

International DJ. Electronic Musician. 
Mix/Master Engineer. Founder: Little Helpers, Alphahouse, Extrasketch.

--bio--
Growing up in the midwestern United States, Butane was steeped in the classic underground house and techno sounds that originated in Chicago and Detroit. Further influences came from afar: New York house, west coast house, UK tech house, Cologne techno, Berlin minimal.  His formative years were spent on the dancefloors of legendary venues like Twilo and Vinyl in New York City, Space and Crobar during Miami's Winter Music Conference, and Rednofive in Chicago.

An avid record collector and DJ since 2002, Andrew’s infamous monthly party in St. Louis established an underground scene in the city and became a must-stop for touring international artists.  In 2004, Andrew embarked on his own artistic journey in the studio, despite lacking any formal musical training (a classically trained pianist he was not).  Proving to be a fast learner, his unique and eclectic sound began earning him worldwide acclaim on international record labels in a mere matter of months.  The German press dubbed him a “wunderkind”.  He moved to Berlin shortly after, residing in the city from 2006-2011.  

Now a resident of San Francisco, Butane is renowned for a steadfast commitment to his craft, and stands as a pillar of artistic integrity and consistency in the rapidly changing realm of electronic dance music.  He values studio work over social media, and boasts an impressive and sprawling discography released by some of the most respected imprints in the business.  As the founder of three labels of his own - Alphahouse, Little Helpers, and his new Extrasketch project - Butane's impact on the industry is both deep and enduring.

For over two decades, Andrew has traversed the globe curating unforgettable sonic experiences.  From underground raves to name-brand clubs, electrifying festival stages to poolside soirées, he has graced the decks in over 60 countries.  Infused with energy, finesse, and sophistication, his sets resonate deeply with in-the-know audiences.  Armed with a meticulously curated collection of custom edits, remastered classics, and hidden gems from decades in the house and techno business, Butane draws on his considerable experience moving crowds to deliver versatile, unpredictable, pitch-perfect performances.
