PREMIERE: Praun - Down Under [Halbtrocken Exclusive]

Under the title CIRCLES, NOIRAH presents his first collection of dance music, focusing on timeless Hard Groovy Techno. This EP is an exercise in meticulous production, where every beat, every layer of texture, and every bass bounce has been carefully and precisely crafted. Without relying on grand melodic leads, NOIRAH creates moments of high rhythmic intensity, demonstrating that the true "soul" of electronic music lies in the constant groove and the quality of the sound design.

Setaoc Mass "Man Ray"

Heavy UK techno from James Ruskin backed with a Luke Slater remix! For our money it's all about the Slater remix of 'The Outsider', laying down a dry-heaving banger in the finest Berghain/Sandwell/Dettmann style, and a must for anyone who picked up his awesome Ostgut album earlier this year. On the flip Ruskin's original version and 'Solution' come constructed in the sort of DJ friendly and typically synthline driven UK style favoured by Mark Broom or Surgeon. That A-side kicks like mutha! boomkat.com/vinyl/235415-james-ruskin-luke-slater-the-outside

Unnoticed Absence (Original mix)

For the end of 2019 Temple Traxx presents another Lower East Side Production: "The Berlin Project” by Fierce Ruling Diva. 

The duo released their 1st house 12" in 1989 when Jeff "Abraxas" Porter and Jeroen Flamman made a name with their lager than life rave anthem "Rubb It In”, and the Sound Factory classic “Atomic Slide (You Gotta Believe)” as Fierce Ruling Diva. They played a pioneering role in the early Amsterdam house scene with their after-hours clubs Subtopia and Planet E. In the early nineties Fierce Ruling Diva took their show throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico & Europe. In Germany, they performed at MayDay "The Judgement Day" and Christopher Street Day, Berlin. 

Earlier this year they released "Sniff The Bassline” and now with "The Berlin Project” they show once more that no-one else deserves the crown for deep, dark and pounding house music like they do: Fierce Ruling Diva!

Out now on Rekids: lnk.to/REKIDS165

Techno pioneer Robert Hood debuts on Rekids with a blistering release entitled ‘Nothing Stops Detroit’ ahead of an album this winter.

Over the last three decades the Underground Resistance alum has continually been at the forefront of the techno genre whilst releasing on many of electronic music’s finest labels to boot. In recent years his solo outings have appeared on a select few labels such as Dekmantel, Music Man Records, not to mention his very own M-Plant. Having made appearances on Rekids in the past remixing label boss Radio Slave - both as Robert Hood (‘Don’t Stop No Sleep’) and Floorplan (‘Feel The Same’) - the Detroit originator now drops a four track release in his official debut on the label.

With its machine aesthetic, ‘Nothing Stops Detroit’ is unmistakably Hood from start to finish. Precision kick drums propel the title track forward as stuttering effects and deep stabs work alongside a march band rhythm. ‘7 Mile Dog’ is next with its grainy synths and scintillating pads, making way for the meandering bassline, rattling atmospherics and trippy, oscillating top line of ‘Ignite A War’. Finally, ‘The Cure’ is a cacophony of twisted percussion and rumbling low-end that energetically concludes matters.

Advent – A coming, or an arrival, a coming into being or use. 

Quite an appropriate name for Cisco Ferreira, a man who has played a big part in the creation and development of Techno from the very beginning of this genre’s history. Indeed, his Techno CV is the stuff of legend. Cisco was producing Techno and performing live Techno shows years before the rest of the world had even heard of the genre. He released his first track in 1988, was a pioneer of the Live PA (or Live Public Address – performing Techno live in front of an audience using electronic music gear), and, if all that wasn’t enough, he even worked as the sound engineer on some of Derrick May’s, Adonis & Fingers Inc’s recording sessions! 

The list goes on, and so does Cisco. Unlike other Techno pioneers from the early years, Cisco continues to produce with as much passion and frequency as he did back in the day. His releases on Labels Like Tresor, Rotation, Electrix, Kanzleramt, Dj Gigolos, Pure Plastic, Synewave plus many more is just another example of his ongoing pursuit to keep making music and pushing Techno to new boundaries. 

Cisco was born to Portuguese parents on the island of Madeira (Portugal). His family moved to London (1975) when he was five years old, setting the stage for his musical career. While at Paddington College (1986) in West London, he studied sound engineering and secured a job after graduation as an assistant sound engineer at ZOLOU Then later WALL Studios.  

At this period is when he really started to learn about Sound & Production, his 1st main recording sessions as an engineer were rock & “Inde” based bands & the studio owners being in successful rock bands. Matt Dangerfield & John Payne “ASIA” this 1st step was a start in learning about balancing & mixing down the rock way, which had a lot of intense & Raw energy especially on drums & Guitars.. 

Other bands Cisco did sessions for: P.I.L. (John Lydon - sex pistols) – Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) – That petrol emotion. Then Later Pop, Dance, Soul & reggae groups like: Wild Bunch (Nelly hopper & Massive Attack) – Marco Pirroni (Adam & the ants) - Maxi Priest – Sly Dunbar (Sly & Robbie) – Loose Ends – Cheryl Lynn… 

1987 Cisco began going to clubs and learning about this new thing called Acid House, which was spreading like crazy throughout London’s underground scene, culminating in the famous “Summer of Love” in 1988, the genre’s golden period. 

Around this time, a record label called, Jack Trax, “One of the 1st to release Acid House, House & techno in UK” moved in next door and began using the same studio for recording sessions, with Cisco as the engineer working with Fingers Inc, Adonis, Marshall Jefferson & Derrick May. Cisco released his first record in 1988 on Ferrari records (R&S records) Then later “Cisco Ferreira” EP on Fragile. 

His first big break came in 1994, when he and fellow Londonite Colin McBean (a.k.a. Mr. G) were brought on by Internal Records to help co-produce a group called Salt Tank. A record contract with Internal/FFRR soon followed, committing The Advent to 12 EP’s and 3 albums.

Today, The Advent goes on just as Cisco Ferreira. While he has had a long history with tons of accomplishments to hang his hat on, he continues to make history. The Advent is fulfilling Cisco’s vision as much as ever. He is busy touring as both a DJ and a live performer, producing for numerous labels, and running his own Techno imprint, Kombination Research. 

As Cisco moves forward, striving to fulfill the ambitious goals he has set one can look back at his storied past and see how he has come full circle… The Saga continues.
