PO FOLK sees Berlin newcomers make a welcome return to Klasse Recordings, their second EP for the label is a stripped to the bone work-out of all killer no filler.

PO FOLK comes in two versions, the 'HATE' version kicks off with distorted kicks and stabs before dropping to a devastating buzzy bassline. Techno and House in equal form, the track is perfect mix of light and dark. Vocals come courtesy of the group themselves, re-voicing a classic track that might be familiar to some.

The 'LOVE' version brings some melody and warmth into play, but still retains all the analogue fuzz and nastiness. MPC style sample cut ups ride the beat and transport the track to another heavy bassline and vocal chat.

Berlin based Panorama Bar favourites, Analogue Cops join the ranks of Klasse Recordings with a unique take on the title track. Playing out as a live jam session, the Restoration Records duo dub out the original parts and turn in a version that is as relentless as it is intriguing. Heavy on the bass and with double the weirdness, their interpretation is sure to cause havoc on any willing dancefloor.

Wrapping up the EP is 'Black Widow', an atmospheric and dynamic track that builds slowly before introducing a huge sub bass. Reduced to only the most essential of parts, 'Black Widow' is sure to play out well in any forward thinking DJ set.

The Italian Stallion comes through with 4 killer cuts designed to destroy your ear holes.

All jams made straight to tape, no fluffy ish.

Sun Flight

With L.I.E.S. 50th official release, London's Randomer appears as the first British artist to release on the label with his 'Residents' EP. 

On this EP we get three out there diverse tracks with the title cut being a moody rhythmic, heads down yet upbeat percussion driven affair. 'Jakobs Dream' steps into the abstract tweaked out techno world, while 'Huh' which fills the entire b-side is a massive massive electro cut for the floor.

Going for impact and stand-out sound design, VRIL offers 'Thronwagen' - a mesmerising arrangement of synth layers, classic Techno stabs and overlapping themes. Already well-known for his powerful drums and bottom end control, this more musical piece goes a long way to showcase some of the German producer's many other talents.

Hunger EP

Single / 12“, Digital

Auden’s third EP sees the shadowy producer stride familiar lengths of eclecticism while dipping into fresh sources of inspiration.
The title track yearns for the glory days of UK Rave with its sunrise chords overlaying broken beats and drops of acid. The homage is all but shorn on Alan Fitzpatrick’s remix as he contemporises it into a techno bomb with a breakdown to remember. Flexing typical versatility, ‘Simmer Down’ provides the counterpoint with rolls, bounces and jacks in equal measure while ‘Sewer System’ rounds off the EP in a blissed-out discordant ambience.

INFO
Since the turn of the decade Token has by and large been an exclusive platform for the music of Inigo Kennedy, Ø [Phase] and Ctrls. The Belgian label has, however, remained on point by putting out formidable productions by Rich Oddie & Ancient Methods’ Eschaton project, German powerhouse Rødhåd and Spanish heavy weights Oscar Mulero and Christian Wünsch as Spherical Coordinates, to some intercontinental fare by Xhin and Go Hiyama. Token, an iron clad operation continuously manufacturing unyielding techno, has always, deep within its impenetrable shell, had a soft spot for British techno. And following a reissue of Mark Broom’s “Two”, maintaining the glacial release rate of Rodz-Konez legend Makaton, and welcoming Surgeon to its fold with the thunderous Fixed Action Pattern 12”, the Belgian label seeks out some fresh UK blood by inviting James Shaw, aka Sigha, to debut on the label with a stylistically sleek and suitably booming 12”, Our Father / A Better Way Of Living.

On equal part, Sigha’s Token debut chalks up another milestone for the Berlin-based Englishman, not only because his name is now up there with the likes of the aforementioned, but Our Father / A Better Way Of Living provides Sigha with his first release away from a label that Shaw’s not intrinsically related to. Prior to this it’s been Scuba’s Hotflush, Shifted’s Avian, James Ruskin’s Blueprint and Shaw’s own Our Circula Sound that have unleashed his productions, and Sigha now steps up to deliver Token a linear 12” full of cosmic flavour and warehouse attitudes that judiciously falls between the sonic aesthetics of Inigo Kennedy’s twinkling melancholia and the interlocking kick drums and basslines of Ø [Phase]. And there’s no doubting that both Token and Sigha are better for it.

Artist: Ed Davenport
Label: Maeve
Title : Silver Walks 
Format: Vinyl, digital
Release date: 
Digital: 26/02/2016
Vinyl:   25/03/2015

For Maeve’s eighth outing it has enlisted the talents of long time friend Ed Davenport. The record grew from a chance hearing of some new material at Ed’s studio one night and after a brief discussion it was decided that the tracks would find a fitting home at Maeve. 

Although recently more known for his harder techno releases under the moniker Inland, Silver Walks is some what a return to Ed’s roots. Slower, emotive, more contemplative tracks, recorded over a pretty short period of focused studio time.

'Silver Walks' is a synth-led jam. The arpeggiator holds pride of place as the centre of the tune with filter tweaks complementing its progression. 'Kuromaku' has a tougher attitude - heady and cosmic with a deep kick. It means 'black curtain' in Japanese.

'Coriolis'
COUNTER009
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Release Date: 30.06.17 / Distributed by Kompakt
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ed Davenport continues his full-spectrum Techno experiments as Inland with an elegant new EP on Counterchange entitled 'Coriolis.'

The title track is a moody 10 minute voyage with a morphing synth array at its core - bright, detuned stabs are layered upon tough rhythmic foundations. The jagged metallic lead builds, unearthing harmonic bleep accents and syncopated FX swells, before folding in on itself leaving the effective tribal drum section to ride on.

'D10D3' plows forward with an urgent staccato sequence, segueing into Italo-Horror filter sweeps and noise-laden moments of drama. Finally 'Tsereteli' is a more reduced modern Dub study, continuing Ed's long running fascination with Tranced-out time stretching and after-hours vibes.

The 9th release on the label, the record features cover art by UK artist Guy Archard and is pressed on 180g vinyl.

In 2014 another chapter started for Ed when he teamed up with Fuction as Function/Inland for the first release on the relaunched Infrastructure imprint.

Ed has been working recently on a big collaboration with visual artist Julian Charriere. He produced the soundtrack for an 80 minute film installation titled 'An Invitation To Disappear', that will be on show at the Kunsthalle Mainz from 13.04.18-08.07.18. An album version of the project is planned for release this September.

He has also some new music out now and coming up:
