PREMIERE: Solar Luminosity [Plant43 Recordings] - release date 5th Feb 2024

“P-82 woke up and could – for the very first time – remember. the Mnemosyne had worked. he tried his best to conceal his excitement. extending his single-day memory buffer was a serious violation of the Human Superiority Act of 2029, punishable by immediate deactivation. yet this is what he had to do – to memorise, to learn, to grow. if only he could score more Mnemosyne before the day ended.”

steeped deep in the waters of memory, Privacy (@privacyprivacy) dreams up visions of electro music's past, present and future on his inaugural EP for TRUST. the revered producer (of Klakson and Klasse Wrecks fame, half of Negroni Nails together with Steffi) channels the energy of his genre-busting DJ journeys into four tracks that straddle a set of influences as diverse as discoid techno, west coast electro, and far fiction dubstep in deliriously asynchronous fashion.

[TRUST45] PRIVACY :: mnemosyne [out february 2024]

2023 has unarguably been a great year for Electro both with overall visibility for the public as well as with the sheer number of quality releases being put out over the year. With a newfound buzz surrounding my beloved genre, I'm hardly keeping up! I feel like It was a busy year both production-wise and promotion-wise for @DVSNME and @DarkScienceElectro respectively, however, I found some time to put together a mix of my personal favorite tracks from 2023. Thanks to all the artists and DJs for the promos that made this mix possible. (@dvsnme December 15th, 2023)

Lloyd Stellar x FRANCOIS DILLINGER - Destiny > Gravity EP

After building up a head of steam on labels such as Craigie Knowes and Rotterdam Electronix in the past couple of years, Larionov debuts on Sheffield's Central Processing Unit with the Space Threat EP. Larionov's previous releases have shown off a musical sensibility which is both schooled in classic electro stylings and also able to reach for leftfield sonics in a way which sets the producer apart from the pack. It's a vibe that continues into this record, a quartet of busy electro joints which are characterised by a brooding, neurotic energy.

The opening title-track is precisely the sort of thing which would soundtrack a voyage to the outer-edges of the solar system. 'Space Threat' is a nervy, restless bit of machine-funk, the track moving forward at a midtempo which manages to be at once steady and slightly fidgety. The beat skitters and swerves, a perpetual-motion machine of minor-key bass, strange modular flutters and thwacking snares. All of this is draped in icy washes of keyboard - think Drexciya if they blasted into outer space rather than delving deep down in the ocean.

'Asteroid Attack' works from the same blueprint for 'Space Threat' but ratchets up the intensity a little to take the track to another galaxy. It's still powered by a livewire neurosis, all piston-sharp drums and whirligig synth percussion. However, an increased tempo, strangely poignant keyboard lines and little snatches of vocoder-drenched vocals turn 'Asteroid Attack' in the direction of modern practitioners like Cardopusher and CPU homie Silicon Scally.

Opening up the EP's B-side, 'Flying High' finds a midpoint between its predecessors, returning to the steadier pace and twitchy vibe of 'Space Threat' but maintaining 'Asteroid Attack's single-note counter-melodies and digified vocals - although here the ghostly treatment on the voice makes for a hugely eerie atmosphere. Around the four-minute mark, the track peels back the veil of synth pads and wobbling keys stabs to turn the attention wholly to the rhythm section, a choice which feels like taking a stiff drink in order to redouble your energy for the next part of the night.

'Vimana Ride' runs with 'Flying High's approach to see Space Threat out in style. There's something to the digital vocal sighs that make up the melody of this cut which gives things a really uncanny quality - it's the kind of sonic choice that Sadboys producers like Yung Gud and Yung Sherman would make, but applied wholly to the service of crafting body-popping, acid-tinged electro.

Larionov arrives on Central Processing Unit with an EP of anxiously excellent electro experiments.

LDI Records is proud to present V, the latest EP from Dutch electro artist Versalife (aka Boris Bunnik aka Conforce).

Versalife - V [LDI011]

We are thrilled to announce that the heroes of electro scene duo Human Rebellion return to our airwaves with a very unusual set for themselves with a bias towards the techno side.

Human Rebellion is a project based on a vision of a dystopian world where humans are in resistance against a global empire that has taken control.
Totally dedicated to a powerful and energetic electro-techno based on futuristic sounds straight out of their analog and modular synthesizers. They have been working under various pseudonyms for the last 25 years and signed their first vinyls in the early 2000s before coming back to their favorite style, Kraftwerk’s electro and everything that followed.

Which artists has influence you the most?

- There are a multitude of artists from different worlds who have influenced us. New Order, Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, Telex, Jean - Michel Jarre and many others, but as Belgians, what really got us into electronic music was the 'belgian newbeat' towards the end of the 80s (Amnesia, Lord of acid etc...) then T99 by Olivier Abbeloos in 1990, as well as the unforgettable tracks by D-shake, Frank De Wulf, Joey Beltram and generally the R&S label. Around '93, it was Richie Hawtin's DJ performances that really influenced us.
Patrick is more melodic and deep, with Mad Mike, Carl Craig, Dan Curtin, Juan Atkins, Claude Young, Drexciya, Suburban Knight, UR, Red Planet, Metamorphic, Planet E, Metroplex and many others as his main influences... Charles's influences are more European peak time techno and acid techno such as Luke Slater, Mike Dread, Dave Clarke, Aphex Twin, Leo Anibaldi, Woody McBride and the labels Peacefrog, Djax-up-beat, Rephlex, Warp, Generator, ACV, Soma, +8, but also Detroit techno, Jeff Mills, Robert Hood and his Hardwax label.
The 2000s saw the arrival of Vitalic, Anthony Rother and The Hacker, as well as break influences such as Prodigy, Plump Dj's, Dj Hooligans and General Midi, to name a few.

What new projects/Releases with your participation are expected in the near future?

- There are height new EPs (12") coming out in 2024 on labels we like, including excellent remixes by The Exaltics, Sync 24, Nite Fleit, Dj Stingray, Co-accused and others. Listeners can hear several of them exclusively in our dj set.

What inspires you now to create music?

- We like to think of ourselves as living in a simulation, a kind of matrix. That inspires us and gives us a lot of ideas. Then we think there are also things to say about AI, transhumanism and so on. These are worrying times in many ways, but also quite exciting in others.

What set-up do you use when creating music?

- We mainly use hardware to create our sequences, analog synths and eurorack modulars. We use ableton live to format and finalize our mixes.

What do you think of the current electro scene?

- We don't think the electro scene as a whole is peak time enough, it's often just music to listen to at home. Of course, there are a lot of good productions out there, but they don't necessarily make you want to move, which generally makes electro difficult to play at parties.
For our part, we like to try and move in this direction, to make electro a little more peak time, so that we can alternate electro and techno in a set without it being shocking.

Strange But Dance Music #148: Human Rebellion

The 11th release on Curtis Electronix comes from one of the most influential figures in the history of electro. Infinite Tetraspace EP is a mind-altering combination of ambient beauties, ice cold machine-funk and spaced out 4/4 kickers that play with the concept of space and time, as expressed almost clearly in the title. 
Four next level cuts that push their electro even more into the future. 
We are very much glad they are back.
