Kounterakt - Nowhere To Run (2011)

Beat Control

Astral Machine - Digital Dystopia test mix

On his latest excursion into concept-driven deep techno, Eddie Merced joins the dots between his East Coast US machine soul sound and his Puerto Rican roots, all while continuing to look skywards in search of hidden mysteries.

Merced's sound holds true to the fundamentals of techno as a modernist soul music, steeped in beguiling harmonies that communicate on an emotional level even as the lead track lands with physical, peak-time intention. It's a fitting tribute to Atabey, the ancestral mother-spirit of the Taino people across the Antilles archipelago (including Puerto Rico) in the time before Europeans arrived.

'LZ-1' maintains the forthright impact of Merced's most floor-focused production traits, locking into cyclical hooks while unfolding a narrative steadily over the run time. Elsewhere the body-popping electro funk of Underground Resistance exerts a tangible influence over the visionary sweep of 'UAPs Gone Mad' and 'Interplanetary'; two distinct tracks speaking the same language.

Given the rich layers of melodic synthesis that course through Merced's tracks, it's natural to hear him putting the drum machines to one side and casting off into beatless ambient techno on the impossibly lush 'Signals From Enceladus'. The track nods to the Puerto Rico-based Arecibo telescope, and its task in the 1970s of sending signals into space in search of a response from extra-terrestrials.

The quest continues to this day in the work of Merced and all other synth dreamers, creating evocative space music charged with that same sense of wonder and the enduring question of whether we've already received a response.

Code Rising is an American Electro duo that was formed in 2010 and consists of Matt Lancaster (South Carolina) and Ryan Phillips (South Florida). Over the years, Code Rising has shared the stage and worked with some of the biggest names in the Electro music scene; performing live mainly in Miami and the surrounding Florida coasts.

After a healthy line of digital releases on Monotone Records from 2010-2013, the duo saw the release of their first full-length CD "Dissemination Protocol" on their own label, Propulsion Recordings. 2021 saw the largest release from the duo yet; "A Spectral Odyssey" was released digitally via BandCamp with a whopping 18 track playlist. Accounting for original and collaborative work, the duo have more than several 12" EP releases in their catalogue. Most of the Code's discography can be found on Soundcloud and Bandcamp!
