Electro/Breakbeat 2.0 ☠️☠️ - Part 1

Yes, we’re presenting you a new label from Ukraine again. This time the name is Secret Keeper, the owner of the label is @orbitdj, and for the first release they’re having one of the secret gems of Kyiv – @luschn1. And if you weren’t familiar with that name – it’s finally time to acknowledge him.

All of the tracks here are untitled, and we’re going straight to the B1. The shortest track on the record and also the most interesting one. With a pinch of old electro house and the base of old progressive house with all that additional buzzing, what’s not to like here, right?

Staying on the B-side, the track on the B2 position is by far the trippiest one here, taking you in weird minimal ways for six minutes. A1 here will probably be played the most with its spooky, grimy, ChristianAB-ish type of vibe. And also with a huge nod to the mid-noughties. The one on the A2 is a slow roller, that type of track, you always like to hear, when you’re a bit tired, but still want to continue dancing. It will recharge you for at least 5 minutes.

SECRET KEEPER 001 - LUSCHN EP 12"

Welcome to the Future... Happy New Year 2015!

“On 𝑹𝒆𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝑴𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒊, Expugnantis brings to Enmossed a compendium of nine dubs of minimal, crystalline excellence. Reflecting on “foggy” memories of a long car ride from the uKhahlamba-Drakensberg portion of the Great Escarpment, the album texturalizes Expugnantis’s grainy sentimental remembrance. The aquatic production is filtered through cloudy synth pads and plucky percussion. Here the expanse sits in the gestures of the minimal, not hampering the listener with dense maximalism or dramatics, but evoking focus through precise and considered repetition.

While the rooting of the compositions is hypersomnic and sentimental, they are filtered through the geographical contexts of recording and operating in the isolatory confines within Columbia, South Carolina. The murk of the percussion is the architectural foundation for the recordings, the pivoting agent between what Expugnantis thinks of as the immersive aquatic field and the game of going within and out. Emotive but not cliche, driving but not oppressive; Expugnantis takes us to Madadeni or somewhere akin.”

Monthly Mix #034 [July 2024]

"Flaming Jesus Dial-up are a band consisting of Italian brothers Francesco and Marco Leoci,
already part of the post-jackin'beats duo FLML and founders of the label Alley Version.
Francesco and Marco were born in Brindisi, where began to have their first music experiences playing in a
teenage punkrock band.
They moved to Bologna, where currently live, to complete studies in fine arts, at the same time they involved
in experimental projects of sound art and multimedia.
The FJD project took shape in 2023 while Francesco and Marco had fun experimenting in their studio
with modified guitars, analog synthesizers and drum machine.
The tracks resulting from these sessions, incorporating an erratic, loose and transgressive aesthetic,
consist of noisy hallucinatory soundscapes, often coupled with slow infectious rhythms and gloomy
soundtrack-style motifs."

In a world where AI seems to take over everything, this show recycles / revisits musical experiments from the now 30-year-old zzz.ch website.
I feed fragments of past compositions into AI to generate, remix, and reinterpret them as an infinite stream of slop. I also reverse-play the process, shaping outputs by hand.
As the machine shifts through styles with only a partial grasp of the original, it may offer a glimpse into how we can engage this inevitable technology in a more sensuous and playful way. slop.is

“We Are What You Think We Are” is the tenth dispatch from the crew at Lost Soul Enterprises, New York City, USA. This compilation features a whopping 15 artists who together represent all corners of the label’s extended family, with frequent local collaborators paired with past guests of our various parties. It is served with love from us to you on 3 slabs of vinyl released in 3 installments.
Each installment charts a different component of our sound: 10.1 highlights the influences of synthwave and postpunk electronics, 10.2 is comprised of razor-sharp acid and overdriven electro, and 10.3 delves into darker shades of industrial techno. Together, all of these elements loosely sketch our little corner of the sonic universe. With this humble offering we tried to capture and share with you a little sliver of what we’ve found together in hazy rooms full of flashing lights and strange sounds. Here is a track from 2nd installment by NYC based producer Maroje T who is slowly to slowly making his mark in the game after its recent stunning release alongside Annanan on Pinkman !

ÖMANKÖMIX - 011: DEEP FRIED FRIENDS "NY 2019"

Played by the famous group Plaid on their tours and countless other Dj's around the world this was really  a great record for Electro pushing  and developing a new style in the process. Just checkout the Boomkat review if you dont beleive me. some people just dont get Electro but this one rocked the planet. 
"Our favourite New York label, at the forefront of the electro scene 2003, gears up for its autumn onslaught with this four track bass-heavy beat cutter from E.M.S. E.M.S. builds his machines from the transistors up, drums and modular synths sounding distinct from the sound of a thousand lesser talents. 'Colonized' dominates the a side, an acid inflected electro stinger, burning modular synths and a morphing sound which just guarantees floor action. There's a useful drum-a-pella break to wrap up the side, then prepare for two further excursions of quality on the flip. 'Rythmus Machine' will challenge bassbins, the melodies are seductive and again the influence of prime acid strokes makes a welcome contribution to the tune. 'Pit + Lounge' ties it off, with a slightly more downbeat approach, floating vocoder across bassy surges and splendid 
rhythms, wicked track. " Boomkat
Tatum (Mr Velcro Fastener) – “The most inspiring electro record for a long time, really liked the PLT+LOUNGE_EUR track – fast but still pure electro, no drum & bass feel at all!  DDDDDDD was also cool, could’ve been a bit longer though…top quality!” 

Dave Mothersole (Kiss100) – “B1 and B2 are great – will play on radio and give B1 a chance out when I’m feeling brave.  Keep me posted with this label.” 

Scape One (Electrix) – “Another cool slice of analogue action from NYC’s premier electro label!” (Charted #4)

Will Saul (Simple/Fabric) – “Wow!!  This is some of the best electro I’ve heard in years. Totally awesome.  This got a great reaction at the weekend and will stay in my box for many months.” (Charted #3)

Dan Moore (Superconductor) – “Excellent stuff, great sounds, deep and energetic all round.  Definitely a top label – keep ‘em coming.” 

Fink (Ninja Tune/Solid Steel) – “Played A2 on the radio as a soundbed – the rest just falls short for me – epic maybe, but the pressing 
 sounds so sonically dull.” 

Scott McGill (T-Funkshun) – “Rythmus Machine, my favourite cut, sounds good on both speeds!  Prefer it at 33RPM where you can take in 
 its lush atmospheric electro sounds.  Last track is great for Aux88 fans.” 

Dan Bean (Passion FM) – “Good, solid release – nothing particularly crazy going on (or am I missing something?), but a good groove, 
 particularly on the title track, which I played on the show last week.” 

Percy X (Soma) – “Got this from Andy when I was in NY – I’ve been playing the first track on the EMS ever since.”

Phil Kieran (Shine/Bugged Out!) – “Fuckin’ brilliant – really, really good.  I think I’m playing B1, the big sub woofer job, perfect 
 for dropping between techno tracks…more, please more!  Best so far that I have heard from this label.” 

Rennie Pilgrim (TCR) – “Very pleasant electro tracks.” 

A1 People (Hydrogen Dukebox) – “This record kicks ass and I will be playing it in all my sets for the near future!”  

Mat Carter (Dedbeat/Haywire) – “Straight to B2 for me here, nice floaty analogue sounding electro.  Just how I like it.” 

Rick Hopkins (Haywire) – “As you’d expect from Satamile, a deep pulsating beast of a monster.  Top stuff!!” (Will Chart)

Reverand Milo Speedwagon (Kiss100) – “Rythmus Machine has the acid lurking nicely.  Colonized builds really well with a few skittery 
 bits flying around to lighten up the mood – good stuff.” (Charted #20)

Paula Temple (Virtual FM) – “Another great release – will give lots of support.” (Charted #7)
