Parisian label Meant turns to Hugo Sanchez and Rodion in their Alien Alien guise, a little known side project that has released on their own label RoccoDisco and that has also featured on Get Physical back in 2012.

The two originals from Alien Alien come with remixes by Rodion in solo mode, plus Red Axes.

Alien Alien have in fact found lots of favour with the international queer community thanks to their ‘Sambaca’ tune, released on Berlin’s Slowmotion label, and ‘The Nights’, on San Fran outlet Discaire, both of which came with truly freaky videos.

‘One by One’ is the first track and it is a very poised and well-paced bit of lo-down disco funk. Searching synths spray across the face of the dark, rubbery track as a male vocal repeats the title’s refrain. It’s the sort of slo-mo chugger the ALFOS crews will love and is filled with menace despite being a sparse track overall.

Rodion then goes solo for a remix and in doing so layers in even more unsettling intergalactic synths and curious alien details. The groove, too, is made more rubbery and supple and really sweeps you up.

‘Soter’ then ups the ante a little with an arpeggiated bassline, crystalline synths and all sorts of weird and wonderful voices. It’s deep but direct and has a solid, chunky groove at its somewhat dystopian core.

The Red Axes remix is a more human and soulful affair with hip swinging claps, more arpeggiated lines and something of a classic jack feel to the raw drums.

This is a macho disco-tastic release from Meant that proves Alien Alien have many different sounds.

Nothing Is Real welcome Low Manuel for the 6th release of the label. 

Low Manuel is a real music lover born in Italy in the 90’s.  His music vision is the expression of his character, introspective, dark and sophisticated.
His style is a mixture of indie electronic but also Techno and his compositions transmit emotions, influenced by the Stars and the Marine World. The 'Scourge Ep' explores new musical shades, hinting at moments of new wave through a lens of psychedelia.
The title track is a trip with an incredibly catchy rhythmic pattern and a strong bassline, while 'The Room’ has a ravey hypnotic and powerful touch.
The Italian duo Margot remix ’The Scourge’ delivering a strong version with their typical synth-driven kraut-techno style adding insane beats, fizzing synths and peaking chords for optimal dancefloor effect. While Nhar gives us his unique and introspective reinterpretation giving the track a mesmerizing deep electronic vibe, taking us to a journey between the bright and dark sides.

Another strong release on Nothing Is Real

Chapter Three : Curses

Back For More (Autarkic Remix)

"Inspired by Douglas Adams’ “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy”, Celestino – curator of the German platform Sexy Dinosaur From Outer Space – is back to NUFF Music with a four-track tribute to the acclaimed comedy science fiction series. If you haven’t read the book or watched the movie, don’t panic! All you need to know is that the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything is 42".

Celestino - Infinite Improbability Drive [Nuff]

It’s back… Amassing heat every other month without fail, the V/A series has been a reassuring consistent source of dark, unbounded acid house and disco action. And for ‘Muy Duro 4’, the ante is raised again…

Heavier, more focused and more pensive than previous collections, for this ‘Muy Duro’ edition the pace and tone is set by a stone cold don Dino Lenny. An Italian legend across all techno disciplines, for ‘What A Sound’ he strips things back to their bare rumbling essentials with a twist of classic new romance intrigue.

He’s in good company… Austrian / Turkish duo Hanzo & Yaman follow up with the brain-tickling technoid ricochets of ‘Boonmee’ before Cabizbajo brings the murky melting pot back home to Mexico for a warped slab of rough-and-ready bass-licked tech.

Finally in the fourth and most forthright ‘Muy Duro’ collection we see Theus Mago link with good friend Persona for demonstrative acid stomp. And we could all do with a stomp right now, right?

Six months and four volumes deep; the ‘Muy Duro’ series continues...
