CMD aka Corina MacDonald is a Montreal-based DJ, producer and host of the program Modular Systems on CKUT 90.3 FM. She has released on JACKTONE, EXPERIMENTAL HOUSEWIFE’S PERFECT LOCATION RECORDS, FUR TRADE RECORDINGS, and BASIC_SOUNDS. For her vinyl debut, “Social Factory Reset”, she brings us four entrancing, slightly dubby and acidic techno dance floor cuts perfect for the smooth edges of the late night.The A-side opens up with the title track “Social Factory Reset”, modular jacking techno with an infectious acid swell and patient pads. “Shaping Inner Space” is an apt title. The tempo is slightly faster than A1, and it sounds like an extraterrestrial night out. Euphoric synth twists bring in the break while the bass drum toys with the rhythm only to zap it back home with the force of cosmic gravity.“Dream-Life Cycles” opens up the B-side tough, with an acid line and bass drum syncopation sure to bring out the stomp. Modular tweets fire off in stereo; harmonic pads bring in the harmony; and a nuanced and pleasantly surprising vocal line brings the euphoria on home. “Body Locked” closes the EP with an athletic, cosmic techno track that doesn’t shy away from the trance palette. Step out of your body and onto the dance floor!CMD "Social Factory Reset" drops on Fixed Rhythms December 10th!

CMD - Cruising the Cloud Cache

The sixteenth release on Fur Trade Recordings offers the world a much-needed introduction to Montreal techno producer CMD (aka Cyan), 
one of the famed Canadian city's next wave of uber-talented women busily reshaping the local scene.  

Corina MacDonald is a producer, DJ, radio-show host.  Her show modular_systems has become a reliable outlet for deep electronic sounds of all kinds, from experimental and noise to techno, house and beyond. She has released music independently and on Canadian labels such as pertin_nce, Low Noise Productions and Fur Trade Recordings.

Elementals EP showcases four moody builders that blend dub-techno's ethereal echo-chamber and infuse it with pastoral soundscapes that bring to mind the best
qualities of DeepChord, Fluxion, and early Monolake.  An ideal gateway to winter's long nights, for those who don't worry about the sun coming up.

As a label based in North America, we have witnessed the continued complicity of our governments in the genocide against innocent Palestinian lives. We believe this compilation is a collection of music that was produced and chosen with heart, contemplation, and shared frustration.

The organization we have chosen to donate proceeds of the compilation is The Palestine Children's Relief Fund. They offer free medical care to injured and ill children in Palestine, including Gaza, who lack local access to care within the existing healthcare system. The Palestine Children's Relief Fund holds a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator and a Silver Seal of Transparency from GuideStar.

Learn more about the organization here: www.pcrf.net

Thank you to the artists for sharing your work, and thank you to the listeners for the support on our release for this cause.

Sound Warrior Records founded by Jenifa Mayanja & Dakini 9 aims to balance the playing field for women in electronic music by exclusively releasing music made by them & showcasing their talent.
Sound Warrior 005 “Warrior Loves” touches upon the cornerstones of underground house&techno. Original lush flourishes, expertly crafted with hard hitting beats dominate this release. 
Featured Sound Warriors on this release, Cherushii (Chelsea Faith) who this album is in memory of & tribute to showcases her immense talent for instrumentation and precise beat weaponry on “No Doubt” & “Milk of Paradise”. Aurora Halal co- founder of the NYC festival “Sustain Release” and a sought after dj/live performer does not hesitate to subdue with her dubby techno on “Twilight”. 
Berlin based artist/live performer Daniela La Luz whose work was recently featured on Moodyman's K7 dj mix &releases on the HOUSEWAX label drops her take of soul infused techno on “Viva La Vida”. North Carolina artist Lady Fingers may seem new to some audiences but she has spent over 15 years in the biz with releases on Trax records and more recently a house romper on Activ-Analog. Here with “To Be With You” she brings her signature sample infused house.  Montreal based artist CMD counts releases on Fur Trade Records and was featured in a FACT magazine “mix of the month” for  Jacktone Radio. Her track” Revere” gets right down to a mix of electro/techno all her own.  LA based producer Lilith most recent release was on Ante Recordings but she has been slinging those hard hitting beats for a while and leaves no room for discussion on “Vital Signs”.  Longtime producer/dj Jenifa Mayanja, runs Bumako Recordings and is known for her signature organic infused house with releases on select labels and a 3rd album dropping in May 2017. With “Warrior Strutt” the anthem wraps up neatly the instrumentation side of the warriors.  New comer Avalele is a visual artist & runs her own imprint White Spiral and on “Unbeaten” shows great promise as someone to watch.
