Info:
	
Offering a three track EP on Token, emblematic UK producer James Ruskin proves his capability and linear focus once again through ‘From the Ashes’. Looking past trends to create a lasting record rich in texture and thick with impact, the project affirms what the scene has already known to be true about his work for the past 25 years. 

Setting his intentions from the A1, Ruskin wastes no time by creating an intimidating introduction. Saturated percussion and stuttering keys whip through a 4 minute masterclass of sound system focused production. Adventurous in structure, Ruskin remains unquestionably in control of a bursting, almost chaotic track. ‘From the Ashes 2’ picks up what was left off, containing a hard-set groove with hi hats slithering in progressively from the stereo image to slightly destabilize an impressive club-heavy tool. With intricate work being done in the ambience, the EP’s hard hitting second track booms through a cavernous acoustic, giving the record not only body, but dimension. Switching up the rhythm and focusing on more mental synth work for the third act, Ruskin quickly and mercilessly rips through his work with a shrill pad, creating overwhelming tension to be released in the first third of the recording. He brings a dosed dissonance between his elements, reflective of the qualities of vintage techno with today’s capabilities and arrangement. Pushing intensity through waves, Ruskin leaves us in anticipation of a fourth track that is never given.

Coming next en nuestras series os traemos a Pedro Fernández AKA Perkless Education. Natural de Granada pero asentado desde hace algún tiempo en Madrid donde se mueve por la escena como pez en el agua, con varias presencias en algunas de las salas más importantes. Fundador de @quick-time-events plataforma que dirige y que está enfocada a la promoción de la electrónica más allá de las fronteras de lo común y 1/2 de @105aibar junto con KANØ.  

Con un planteamiento musical donde predomina la música electrónica de baile
con percusiones endiabladas y que provocan unas cosquillas en los pies que no veas. Mix con sonidos tan profundos como la fosa de las marianas e igual de contundentes que tu madre con el plato de lentejas. 

Asique ya sabéis: ¡ESCUCHA, COMPARTE, BAILA!

Como parte diferencial de la propuesta de este colectivo y de forma que esto traspase lo sonoro, os dejamos algunas preguntas que le hicimos a Perkless donde podemos conocer más a la persona que hay detrás del AKA. 

\ Crees que existe vida extraterrestre?

Esperemos que sí…

\ Churros o porras?

Las porras siempre que son más gordas y alimentan más.

\ Si tuvieras que elegir un superpoder,  cuál sería?

Superfelicidad y supersalud para todxs sería el plan abstracto, pero si fuese un “poder físico”, seguramente sería muy poco original y me pasaría el día volando de un sitio a otro.

\ B2B soñado

Puffff… imagínate con Blawan.

Con Truncate, Rene Wise, Freddy K, Luke Slater, Ben Sims… yo qué sé.. no me preguntéis esto, al final con quienes más disfruto pinchando es con mis hermanos.

\ Canción favorita para cerrar un set

Venga voy a regalar un par de ellas… Incident de Joris Voorn si estás animado y en el rollete oldschoolero, y si estás un poco más melancólico (que me suele pasar) Searching de IGLO, por decirte algo.

\ Qué opinas sobre la escena música electrónica en España?

Pues opino muchísimas cosas , pero así resumiendo, que la gente no para de fijarse en el otro y pierde más tiempo criticando y frustrándose que haciendo algo por la escena.

La escena somos todos y si nos queremos dedicar a pisarnos los unos a los otros sin apoyarnos vamos regular.

Open Up Your Eyes

OPen Up Your Eyes

TP PREMIERE: Archer Sloane - Open Up Your Eyes (Original Mix)

Patrick Scuro – ALL IN - Four years after founding Animarum Recordings, Patrick Scuro delivers his most ambitious project to date – his debut album “ALL IN”. A journey through 7 genres – from deep melodic moments to peak-time bangers, mainstage weapons, hard techno destruction and euphoric bounce/trance energy. This album marks the unification of all his previous aliases – Scuro Black, BouncyScuro and Pat Sundaze – into one artist identity: Patrick Scuro. ALL IN is more than just a collection of tracks – it’s a personal statement. Emotional breakdowns, power drops, hands-in-the-air anthems – each track reflects a different side of his soul. From the cinematic melodic opener Sontag to relentless high-BPM closers like Dance Again and Dangerous, the album captures the full spectrum of what he calls Soul Techno and Soul Trance. This is Patrick Scuro – no boundaries, no compromises. ALL IN. “Techno & Trance For Your Soul” | #soultechno #soultrance

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.
