Techno

Slam bring light to their Paragraph imprint with the floor-shattering 'Cadence' release. 

'Cadence' is as tough and as noisy as you'll find Slam today. Sitting on the outskirts of Techno, the Glaswegian pair push the envelope of their style and production, utilising a grit they have worked on for over twenty years.

The deeper of the two tracks ,'Remain', still packs a punch. While preserving the rumbling low-end that binds 'Cadence' together, 'Remain' bears a fathomless form that allows that dizzying, cosmos moment in longer sets. 

This powerful two tracker from Slam is a welcome return for Paragraph.

Christian Smith is back to Drumcode with a full force, high energy EP. ‘Force Majeure’, consisting of three driving techno tracks, is laced with energetic crescendos, thumping kick drums and deep bass lines. The stirring samples and entrancing percussion used alongside the powerful production really showcase Smith’s diversity and talent as a producer – this EP is not to be missed.

Adam Beyer’s Drumcode juggernaut attracts more fans and critical plaudits with each passing year. Holding firm on its future facing ethos, techno’s number one label presents a new volume in its acclaimed A-Sides series with 20 prime tracks to signify its 20th anniversary. 

Such is the volume of quality music Adam Beyer receives throughout the course of the year, releasing all of it would be impossible. Enter the blue chip A-Sides series: a chance for the quality-obsessive label head to issue a collection of outstanding tracks that couldn’t fit in their regular EP release schedule. 

With an eye on future talent, as much as the label’s established roster of heavy-hitters, the compilation showcases the full breadth of Drumcode’s multifaceted techno sound, equal parts inspiring and functional. 

Led by the stealth techno funk of ‘Nine of You’, Beyer’s deft collaboration with Mark Reeve, the compilation takes in exciting highlights from big guns such as Alan Fitzpatrick, Dustin Zahn, Bart Skils, Pleasurekraft, Luca Agnelli, Jay Lumen, Kaiserdisco and Gary Beck. 

The rich vein of form displayed by emerging techno talent is similarly given prime position. Rising DJ/producer Boxia makes his Drumcode debut, fresh from a well-received warm up set for the crew at the hugely successful Junction 2 festival in London, while the likes of Enrico Sangiuliano, Juan Sanchez, Ian O’Donovan and Timmo also drop fire, establishing their credentials as some of the most promising talent breaking through the ranks in 2016. 

Reinforcing the global scope of the label, artists such as The Junkies from Toronto and Layton Giordani from New York, prove techno is winning a place in the heart of the new generation of artists coming out of North America.

Hot on the heels of the A-Sides Volume 5 compilation, Enrico Sangiuliano makes his return to Drumcode with his highly anticipated EP ‘Moon Rocks’. The heavy hitting four track EP shines a light on Sangiuliano’s tight, thundering production skills. The hoover heavy lead track ‘Moon Rocks’ is packed with booming percussion, intricate synths and brooding crescendos. The EP encapsulates Sangiuliano’s wide spectrum of sounds ranging from the fat bass line of ‘Moon Rocks’ to the more delicate harmonies shown within the ‘Dutch Kiss’ mixes whilst ‘Ghettoblaster’ sits somewhere in between.

KAISERDISCO are quickly back and banging on 100% Pure, the celebrated German superpower following this year’s ‘Freedom’ EP with some true techno locomotion.

‘Seismic’ aims to trouble the tectonic plates beneath your dancing feet with a ceaseless, chafing throb, its filtered fear factor mushrooming into an awesome cauldron of pressure until releasing and blowing off a typhoon of steam.

‘Crackpot’ is a techno centaur bearing the head of a popping, bongo-busting rhythm looping itself inside out, and a jackhammer body striking iron upon iron. Both elements bow down to the hiss of razor sharp hi-hats as KD leave you happily gasping for breath.

Sam Paganini makes his return to Drumcode after his chart topping album ‘Satellite’ with a four track, pounding EP. ‘The Beat’, is crammed with thudding drums, reverberated vocals and floaty synth lines. The EP, packed with tantalising synths and explosive drops, will ignite any dance floor.

Late October will see Dutch artist Man With No Shadow deliver his 'Drumfeld' EP via the long standing 100% Pure imprint, accompanied by a remix from Copy Paste Soul.

Dutch producer and DJ Man With No Shadow's production career has been steadily evolving over the past few years since stepping out of events to pursue his own music, since marking his debut on Shinedoe and 2000 and One's Intacto in 2013 he's gone on to remix Copy Paste Soul on his 2Swords label and release two EP's for Tom Budden's ALiVE Recordings. Here though we see Man With No Shadow step up with a new EP for 2000 and One's other label 100% Pure, one of Amsterdam's leading imprints founded in 1993.

Opening is the title-track 'Drumfeld' in which Man With No Shadow treats us to powerful drums further fuelled by a vacillating low-end drive, while raw dub hits and sporadic vocal hums further fuel the heady groove. 'Asteriks' follows and takes a more stripped-back percussive feel with delayed marimba hits subtly evolving alongside dusty drums sounds and grainy atmospherics throughout.

UK artist Copy Paste Soul then steps in to rework 'Drumfeld' next, putting his unique spin on things via choppy bass stabs, sweeping synths and an ever-evolving dynamism before a third and final original 'Double Dub' closes the package, again employing a groove-driven feel via energetic stab sequences and crunchy percussion.
