DEAD CERT. Records is a label devoted to techno in various forms. Having made its first release in July 2013 it’s been an incredible start for the new imprint, with releases featuring Audio Injection (Truncate) and Hans Bouffmyhre amongst an impressive roster of artists. It’s clear to see why the label has been seen in set lists and charts from people including Cari Lekebusch, Dave Clarke and Rebekah. 

Set up by duo William Welt and Jack! Who?, the label is linked to the now infamous Death Techno mix series, that has guests including Joachim Spieth, Mike Wall and Miss Sunshine amongst many others. 

William and Iain met through the North East of England’s club scene where they regularly found themselves DJ'ing at the same parties. William who plays both House and Techno already ran 22 Digit Records which focuses on house and deep techno. Iain mentioned he was looking to launch a label linked to his mix show, William saw this as the perfect opportunity to explore his darker side and DEAD CERT. was born. 

After over a year of releasing music in a digital format it seemed the logical step for the label to start pressing vinyl, this being the first in a series of four track, vinyl only releases. This new branch of the label to be entitled “DEADCERTBLACK” will be pressing limited runs of 300 units. 

The first release sees William Welt and Jack! Who? step out from the shadows and take the spot light with three of their own productions. Two of which are collaborations and the third is a solo production from William Welt that gets the remix treatment from DJ Spider. 

The first track on the EP titled “Stalker” is the sole production from William and as the title suggests it’s a twisted monster hungry for prey. Thick hi-hats and a heavy clap rhythm hold the groove whilst pulsating filters breathe life into the menacing bass line. The track’s vibe is broken only for a split second when warm pads cut through the mix like a short lived break in the clouds on an otherwise dark and stormy day. 

Based in New York (USA) Rob Hampton aka DJ Spider is known for his love of vinyl and all things analogue. Having releases on trend setting labels like Killekill he also heads up Plan B Recordings along with Sublevel Sounds and Beneath The Underground Music. Keeping the original tracks dark vibe DJ Spider puts his own twisted spin on Stalker and stripped back the sound to create space for his own robotic ambience. Filled with machine like percussion and cracks of reverb he uses sparse FX to create a soundscape with just enough bite to keep the dancefloor moving. 

“Creeper” is the first of the two collaborations and Jack! Who?’s presence is instantly felt. With a groove that’s firmly focused at the dancefloor the track is both tense and spacious. Metallic hi-hats combine with murky percussion that flutters like the beating wings of an oversized insect. Although percussion led, the track is layered with growling bass swells and monstrous FX which keeps it both captivating and intense. 

The second of the two collaborations entitled “Lurker” is the fourth and final track on the release. Clean and full, the track is the deepest on the EP and provides perfect contrast to complete the package. Focusing on metallic pad sounds, it has a strong dub influence and a flowing groove. Very much a game of two halves it’s the perfect tool to make the transition between warm up and peak time, as Introduced in the main break is a lead pad that takes it up a gear.

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen previous releases feature artists including Roberto, Paul Mac, TWR72, Echoplex, Eomac and Petter B.

"Behold Rusk" is a bouncy opener, that uses a moody bassline and abstract atmosphere fuelled with a dark funk from brave, brooding sounds.

The second track "Bawdy" combines intricate melody tones with a thumping beat to create a clever, characterful, cerebral piece.

"Gritty To Us" has a darker feel overall, with a shadowy ambience and killer, pulsing, modular-style stabs that rip the airwaves with a raw and powerful aesthetic.

The final offering "Platina Debris" is a track that focuses on rolling percussive elements from the start, and derives more industrial influences to shape its aggressive, sharp, and metallic hook.

01. The Nocturn
02. Ethereal Boundaries
03. Reptoid Moon
04. Corrupted Light

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen previous releases feature artists including Petter B, Paul Mac, TWR72, Echoplex, Eomac and more.

Felipe Párraga aka Saurio is an emerging artist from Bogotá, Colombia who returns to DEAD CERT. with a four-track EP following outstanding VA appearances that included hypnotic trips such as "Cheap Metaphysics" and "Algerian." His music has also been featured on labels like Bruno Ledesma's Concepto Hipnotico, Syrte aka Stefan Weise's Science Cult, Diffuse Reality, Warok Music, Korpus 9, Parabola and more.

Opening with "The Nocturn," the abstract sound design is as bizarre as it is catchy and tense all at once. Setting an unmistakable mood of creativity and function, this crazy weapon is ready to melt all corners of the dance floor.

"Ethereal Boundaries" presents a more delicate and hypnotic approach. Using quirky, tribal percussion and shimmering notes around droning elements and a chugging bassline it has an engrossing, dystopian aesthetic.

The third of four tracks launches straight into a raw, thundering groove on "Reptoid Moon." A volatile and intense juggernaut that captivates the mind with its slicing, mechanical and modular groans creating a moody, mesmerising vibe.

Closing with "Corrupted Light" and its ripping style made of powerful rhythms, this sonic tapestry is avant-garde as well as purist. Phasing and sweeping foundations add a dark, sci-fi feeling alongside cyclical elements for tremendous impact.

Death Techno’s own DEAD CERT. Records (@DEADCERTrecords) began releasing digitally in 2013 and has gained huge support thus far from many of Techno’s leading tastemakers including James Ruskin, Dave Clarke, Rebekah, Cari Lekebusch and Alan Fitzpatrick charting and set listing tracks.

After much planning and patience DEAD CERT. makes a move into its first VINYL ONLY release that features original material from label bosses William Welt & Jack! Who? (@William-Welt_Eye-Shadow & @Jack-Who) along with a freaky remix from New York vinyl head DJ Spider (@DJSpiderNYC) of Plan B Recordings and Berlin’s enigmatic Killekill.

“Stalker” is a dark and twisted monster, that broods from the bubbling bottom end. Added to the tension are metallic sheens and a sinister, yet dreamy atmosphere that pushes forward with a dirty groove making it a diverse production to suit different moods.

DEAD CERT. Records is a label devoted to techno in various forms. Having made its first release in July 2013 it’s been an incredible start for the new imprint, with releases featuring Audio Injection (Truncate) and Hans Bouffmyhre amongst an impressive roster of artists. It’s clear to see why the label has been seen in set lists and charts from people including Cari Lekebusch, Dave Clarke and Rebekah. 

Set up by duo William Welt and Jack! Who?, the label is linked to the now infamous Death Techno mix series, that has guests including Joachim Spieth, Mike Wall and Miss Sunshine amongst many others. 

William and Iain met through the North East of England’s club scene where they regularly found themselves DJ'ing at the same parties. William who plays both House and Techno already ran 22 Digit Records which focuses on house and deep techno. Iain mentioned he was looking to launch a label linked to his mix show, William saw this as the perfect opportunity to explore his darker side and DEAD CERT. was born. 

After over a year of releasing music in a digital format it seemed the logical step for the label to start pressing vinyl, this being the first in a series of four track, vinyl only releases. This new branch of the label to be entitled “DEADCERTBLACK” will be pressing limited runs of 300 units. 

The first release sees William Welt and Jack! Who? step out from the shadows and take the spot light with three of their own productions. Two of which are collaborations and the third is a solo production from William Welt that gets the remix treatment from DJ Spider. 

The first track on the EP titled “Stalker” is the sole production from William and as the title suggests it’s a twisted monster hungry for prey. Thick hi-hats and a heavy clap rhythm hold the groove whilst pulsating filters breathe life into the menacing bass line. The track’s vibe is broken only for a split second when warm pads cut through the mix like a short lived break in the clouds on an otherwise dark and stormy day. 

Based in New York (USA) Rob Hampton aka DJ Spider is known for his love of vinyl and all things analogue. Having releases on trend setting labels like Killekill he also heads up Plan B Recordings along with Sublevel Sounds and Beneath The Underground Music. Keeping the original tracks dark vibe DJ Spider puts his own twisted spin on Stalker and stripped back the sound to create space for his own robotic ambience. Filled with machine like percussion and cracks of reverb he uses sparse FX to create a soundscape with just enough bite to keep the dancefloor moving. 

“Creeper” is the first of the two collaborations and Jack! Who?’s presence is instantly felt. With a groove that’s firmly focused at the dancefloor the track is both tense and spacious. Metallic hi-hats combine with murky percussion that flutters like the beating wings of an oversized insect. Although percussion led, the track is layered with growling bass swells and monstrous FX which keeps it both captivating and intense. 

The second of the two collaborations entitled “Lurker” is the fourth and final track on the release. Clean and full, the track is the deepest on the EP and provides perfect contrast to complete the package. Focusing on metallic pad sounds, it has a strong dub influence and a flowing groove. Very much a game of two halves it’s the perfect tool to make the transition between warm up and peak time, as Introduced in the main break is a lead pad that takes it up a gear.

Now on its twentieth release it welcomes Berlin based Caremajor aka Julian Krämer who comes hotly tipped after recent releases on labels including Illegal Alien, Abstract Mechanisms and Cracking Claps. 

The first track "Persistence" is no doubt made for the dancefloor, a spooky melody reveals itself as the engaging hook, powered by a tough beat that rarely backs down for the duration. Added harmonics progress the track to the crescendo, where it bursts into life with a deep and soulful shine, which makes it a staple statement for any DJ set.

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen their previous releases feature music from artists including Audio Injection / Truncate, Hans Bouffmyhre, Joachim Spieth, Miss Sunshine, DJ Spider and Eomac to name but a few. 

"Royal Mail" is the new celebratory series to coincide with the labels 4th birthday this year, enlisting a particular artist to create new remix impressions from the labels back catalogue of original music. 

DEAD CERT. favourite Callum Plant from Manchester (UK) is the product of a thriving Techno scene and he continues to be on the rise after music released on Lex Gorrie's Unknown Territory, Ill Bomb Records in New York and Floor Ready in Scotland amongst others. 

XHEI is known for quality Techno visions that has found his music land on CLR, Sleaze, Micro.fon, Illegal Alien and many more. Callum adds a signature stomping beat to an already heavily rotated track, where "Requiem" has picked up support from Alan Fitzpatrick, Tommy Four Seven, Sam Paganini and many more. 

Belarusian artist Energun known for works on Rebekah's Decoy and beyond released a four track EP called Psychology in 2014 and Callum takes on "Developmental" with a fierce and pulsating energy adding suspense and eerie atmospherics. The main hook is transformed into a gritty and swirling rave fuelled synth that evokes plenty of aural pleasure that is sure to devastate dancefloors. 

Regular DEAD CERT. contributions from TMM Records owner Vegim have been highly regarded, including the Signal Handling EP that featured a huge remix by Affin's Joachim Spieth of "Digital Fracture." A tough groove uses elements of the original to set the scene in part, allowing Callum's own stamp to take shape with a completely new and unique interpretation that has some extra hypnotic angles. 

The final rework is a track exclusive to the labels first vinyl release and featuring the label bosses themselves. William Welt collaborating with Jack! Who? the Editor of deathtechno.com on "Lurker" where Callum gives it a grooving, dubby twist with a broken beat and scything synths.

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen their previous releases feature music from artists including Audio Injection / Truncate, Hans Bouffmyhre, Joachim Spieth, Miss Sunshine, DJ Spider and Eomac to name but a few. 

Aleksandar Grum also known as Redial Tone returns with an EP featuring new original works on "Hope & Despair" after a well received track called "22:22" last year. The leading Montenegro DJ and Producer is on the rise with a string of releases on Re:Axis' Monocline, Coeter's Kaputt, Subsist and Authentic Pew amongst others. Having shared the booth with people such as Jeff Mills, Chris Liebing, Lewis Fautzi and Miss Sunshine he is one to keep a close eye on. 

Also featuring on remix duty are UK based Paul Mac and Soolee from South Korea. 

Paul is widely considered a legend of the UK scene, having chalked up more than 20 years in the music industry. Spearheading label projects such as Stimulus and C-Side, he has also released music on the likes of James Ruskin's Blueprint, Oscar Mulero's Warm Up and Heiko Laux's Kanzleramt. 

Seoul is the home of Soolee, the head of More Than Less Records and curator of the renowned Less N Less podcast. With a production catalogue that includes Alex Bau's Credo, Submerge's Impact Mechanics and Joton's Newrhythmic, his sound is highly regarded and respected. 

"Hope" is the first offering, an infectious stripped back groove, sets it off to the races. A vocal hook joins in, growls and murmurs provide more depth, all the while remaining crunchy and textured. 

The first remix from Paul Mac opts for a completely new and energetic jam. A rolling and morphing synth adds some colour to a tough and jacking beat. This quirky rework takes you on a ride with a unique twist. 

Soolee dives in with a powerful groove, driving its way through hypnotic elements and spaced out sounds. Quite the contrast to the original version, this serious bruiser means business and is sure to destroy dancefloors the world over. 

"Despair" is a somewhat experimental, yet functional floor worker. The drum rhythms and abstract delays create a sense of tension before waves of hi-hats and cymbals crash into the mix. Eerie bleeps add an ethereal edge to this creative Techno piece that will stand out in any DJ set.

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen the previous releases feature music from artists including Audio Injection / Truncate, Paul Mac, TWR72, Echoplex, and Petter B to name but a few.

Breaking new techno talent is a priority for DEAD CERT. and Asier Morillas aka A4 is another artist who joins the ranks from Spain with four powerful original works following an appearance on HD Substance's SUB TL imprint.

His first full EP titled "Major Arcana" draws on an influence taken from Tarot cards, embedding a mystical experience in his music.

Starting off is "The Sun" that opts for a swirling, brooding tension with droning bleeps and lashes of hi-hats that create a spaced out sound full of hypnotic vibes.

"The Moon" shows a more jovial side to proceedings with a wobbly, warm bassline and complimenting acid licks followed by pin-point metallic accents.

Track three "The Star" is a thundering piece that has a driving groove as its focus. A humongous hook and abstract bell melody also captivate the airwaves with intrigue.

Last up is "The Devil" that reeks of intensity wrapped up in a sturdy, flowing beat. Using its obscure looping riff as the core architecture this is a peak time destroyer.

Andres Gil is an established Colombian artist whose diverse back catalogue lists labels such as Illegal Alien, Kaputt, Phobiq and Florian Meindl's FLASH Recordings. This is his first EP for DEAD CERT. following his recent contribution "Sundial" from the end of 2018.

Also featuring on the release is Moteka from France, who is a key player on Electric Rescue's Skryptöm family and can also be found on labels such as Children of Tomorrow, Mary Go Wild Black and Newrhythmic with solo material, or as part of super groups such as Möd3rn.

"Seismic" begins with an overall spaced out vibe delivered with deep, pumping, bass sounds. Droning pulses morph and manipulate to create a dark and powerful mood to draw you in to its allure.

"Radiation" has a more driving stance from the get-go, and upping the energy, this thundering beast uses dreamy tones and a hypnotic aesthetic to balance out the intensity, making it a real mind workout.

Moteka's rework of "Radiation" switches things up to a solid broken beat and gritty analogue sound. Completely transforming it into a new style with key remnants of the original, this is sound design at its finest.

The final track "Electromagnetic" is another serious techno juggernaut that has an undeniable groove, using funky percussion licks to add character. The abstract looping bells become the main hook of this jackin' monster that's ready for peak time plays.

Following his spectacular Black Mail XIII collaboration called "Obelisk", Stephan Krus returns with a creative and diverse solo EP. Proving his production quality once again, he also has appearances on labels like Decoy, Naked Lunch, and SK Black.

"Cycloid" begins with a sense of drama and deep cerebral aesthetic, before the pulsing, hypnotic acid bursts through and it really picks up power and attitude.

Track two "Horopter" has an altogether straight and rolling groove of delayed sounds and a cavernous feel. Later getting into a riff of abstract metallic tones, this has a juxtaposition of serious vibe and jovial mood making it a choice DJ weapon.

Third on offer is "Catenary" that completely switches up the style, bringing a whole new freshness to the fray. Combining angular licks and rough industrial textures, it's also laced with a gritty and dirty analogue funk.

To close the EP is "Isochrone" that skilfully harnesses a stuttering melody and plucking sonics with masterful precision. Brooding and tough, additional layers of sonic grunge raise it to intense heights of mind-twisting goodness.

Israel-based Von Tee Rah returns to DEAD CERT. with his second EP following releases on Robert S (PT)'s trau-ma and Nomad.

Once again he shows off his excellent production skills and imaginative sound design with obscure tones and abrasive, mechanical accents that infuse his raw and unique vision of techno.

“BSS” has an essence of drum rolls, funk and splitting shots with industrial textures and piercing whines.

The second track “MNS” has a maniacal feel of intensity from chopping sounds and an angular looping melody with additional downward scaling notes.

Next up “TRS” has a powerful undertone made of gritty textures and shining, sharp bleeps as the main focus.

Closing with “BRG” and a slightly more jovial feel, its jackin’ and abstract construction is a prime example of his complex crafting ability.

Returning for his third appearance and celebrating the label's 50th release, Israel-based Von Tee Rah has also contributed on Robert S (PT)'s trau-ma, Nomad and Shiza.

His latest outing has 2 original weapons alongside delicious remixes from Arnaud Le Texier and LATHE.

Arnaud Le Texier is known for heading up the highly respected Children of Tomorrow label and his music has also been released on Sven Väth's Cocoon, Joachim Spieth's Affin, and Christian Wünsch's Tsunami Records.

LATHE is a production alias of an already successful artist, who has been carving out a new path on labels such as Shlomi Aber's Be As One, On Edge Society and Teksupport Records as well as collaborating with the likes of Alex Bau.

"Rotor" is a whirlwind of mechanical elements that will blow you away. Its essence is in creative sound design yet still holds an exciting, functional stance, brimming in dance floor dynamite.

Arnaud Le Texier adds gritty, hypnotic sonics to transform the overall output, adding electronic pulses and a new feel of powerfulness, intensity and drive.

The rework from LATHE is a whole new chapter, breaking it down to an energetic and initially sparse, broken beat style. The bleeping sonar and lashing hat patterns are later accompanied by roars of industrial sweeps creating a funked out dark groove.

The second original on the EP is "Turbine" with its off-kilter, wonky tones, detuned harmonics and looming menace. The build up is raging in satisfaction and throw in a jacked up beat to provide a stunning and unique vision of techno.

This is the second entry of the “Royal Mail” series inaugurated by Callum Plant in 2016 welcoming an artist to dive into the back catalogue and create some fresh reworks.

Juan Trujillo is a skilled artist the label has supported for many years and his Argentinian influence continues to grow having recently appeared on labels such as Noir Music, Alleanza and Counter Pulse, as well as running his own Simplecoding Recordings.

First up is the Marco Effe “Atomic Clocks” revision that is spinning with energy and raw sounds that provide depth and power ready to rinse club floors.

A recent track from Spanish newcomer A4 titled “The Moon” is the second selection keeping the distinctive and abstract tones intact yet more intensified, Juan creates a far out, groove-fuelled weapon.

Taking things a touch deeper, the Vegim rework opts for a spacey and hypnotic flavour, morphing the original notes of “Digital Fraction” into a subtle and twisted tripped out take.

Energun’s “Evolutionary” finishes things off as the most laid-back track of the four remixes, complete with dreamy textures and a spaced out, introspective vibe with just the right amount of bite.

Miguel Duarte aka Holldën makes his debut release for DEAD CERT. with some authority following releases on the likes of Affekt, Labrynth, Decoy, Coincidence and Out-er.

"Super Moon" wastes no time showing his production prowess from huge warping hooks as it spirals into the depths of abstract sounds wrapped up in ferocious funk.

The second entry is "Harvest Moon" with a spiky, analogue melody bursting in energy and feeling, sounding like a brewing thunderstorm ready to shock the dance floor.

Third up is "Blood Moon" a brooding, chugging juggernaut of suspense and functionality. Throw in a quirky break of haunting drones and it really captivates the mind.

Closing with "Blue Moon" and showing his diversity, this is a slice of more soulful techno focusing on emotion and dreamy chords and spacey atmospherics.

This EP contains quality cuts from Marco Effe in Berlin, Arnaud Le Texier in London, William Arist from Uruguay and Qphoriq who is based in Russia.

A1. Marco Effe - Sonorgram
Marco Effe has a vast history, diversity and pedigree of productions on the likes of Sven Väth's Cocoon, Dubfire's SCI+TEC, Luca Agnelli's Etruria Beat and Planet Rhythm to name only a few. "Sonorgam" is a hypnotic, rolling, analogue jam with an alluring hook and full of masterful suspense ready for the club floor.

A2. Arnaud Le Texier - Corrode
Arnaud Le Texier is known for heading up the highly respected Children of Tomorrow label and his music has also been released on Slam's Soma, Sven Väth's Cocoon and Christian Wünsch's Tsunami Records. "Corrode" wastes no time driving it's droning, stabbing synth into the airwaves complemented by chopping hi-hats that create a raw, sonic intensity delivered with power and precision.

B1. William Arist - Cyanophyta
William Arist is an established artist from Uruguay with over 100 tracks released across vinyl and digital formats using a multitude of monikers. His productions have caught the ear of heads such as Ben Sims and his quality can be heard instantly. "Cyanophyta" is a moody and twisted techno beast that uses engaging, esoteric and looping tones to capture the imagination with a powerful style bursting with energy.

B2. QphoriQ - Statique
Russian talent Leo Vasilets aka Qphoriq makes his debut on DEAD CERT. in distinguished style here. "Statique" is a thumping and euphoric effort using dreamy chords and distinctive drum rolls to create a compelling tapestry of sound design with emotional connection that excites and satisfies with its depth and character.

Artist: William Arist
Title: Dystopic Perception
Release Date: 13 October 2020
Format: Digital
CAT#: DEADCERT053

01. Drastic
02. Desire
03. Desire (Fossil Archive aka Roberto Remix)
04. Dystopia

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen the previous releases feature music from artists including Audio Injection / Truncate, Paul Mac, TWR72, Echoplex and Petter B, to name but a few.

Uruguay-based William Arist returns to DEAD CERT. following his fierce vinyl only contribution "Cyanophyta" that has gathered pace as an essential DJ weapon. Having released on labels like Animal Farm, Vinicius Honorio's Liberta, Deano (ZA)'s Knowledge Imprint, his very own Perseverancia and soon Marco Faraone's UNCAGE, he also lists support by the likes of Ben Sims, Charlotte de Witte and Tensal.

He has delved into his vast production archive especially for DEAD CERT. and alongside three original works is a remix from Fossil Archive aka Roberto.

Fossil Archive also goes by the name Roberto to many and has a back catalogue including Radio Slave's Rekids, Mike Dehnert’s Fachwerk, Emmanuel’s ARTS, On Edge Society and collaborations with the late Trevino and Roman Lindau for example, his huge, consistent and educated sound is much loved.

"Drastic" kicks things off with a raw, angular jam, wrapped in analogue grit and infectious electronic funk that tears forward with a jovial heart at its core.

Second up is "Desire" that opts for a different approach. The rolling bottom end, pulsing phasers and deep chords add a warm sensitivity to its otherwise energetic framework.

Fossil Archive aka Roberto goes full throttle with his rework, jackin' at its best with both feet on the dance floor and a style that will defy anyone not to succumb to its monumental influence.

Showing his production skills in full effect, "Dystopia" is a lesson in abstract grooves and rich sound design, for those who like leftfield techno dripping in character and creativity.

01. Switch
02. Thrill
03. Locked
04. Flame

DEAD CERT. Records is a label linked to the well known website deathtechno.com ran by Jack! Who? in the UK. A diverse palette has seen previous releases feature music from artists including Paul Mac, TWR72, Echoplex, Eomac and Petter B.

Aleksandar Grum aka Vakat is also known as Redial Tone who hails from Montenegro and returns with this new project following outings on Marcelus' Singular Records in Paris, and the Spanish stronghold Subsist.

"Switch" kicks things off with a raw, angular jam, wrapped in analogue grit and infectious electronic funk that tears forward with a jovial heart at its core.

Second up is "Thrill" that opts for a moodier approach. The rolling bottom end, pulsing phasers and deep chords add a menacing sensitivity to its otherwise energetic framework.

"Locked" is a slick and jackin' affair of raw modular tones that's dripping in 909 flavour and functionality at its best, with one thing in mind, to make you move.

Showing his production skills in full effect, "Flame" is a lesson in abstract grooves and rich sound design, for those who like raunchy, heady techno full of character and creativity.

01. William Arist - Allure (Hemka Remix)
02. BYLLY - Carbon (HD Substance Remix)
03. Andres Gil - Radiation (Moteka Remix)
04. Pyramidal Decode - Antidoto (Kirk Degiorgio Remix)

A hand picked selection of remixes from the DEAD CERT. back catalogue to start off the new year.

01. William Arist - Allure (Hemka Remix)

Hemka is a Parisian powerhouse who has released on Ellen Allien's BPitch, Ben Sim's Symbolism, TWR72's Float Records and Darko Esser aka Tripeo's Balans imprint. Her uptempo style is full of energy with a focus on raw, edgy, analogue sounds that has seen her grace the legendary Tresor and Rex Club. Hemka opts for a driving tom roll rally, that gets straight down to business. The manic looping hook make this is an absolute rocket ready to be launched into space.

02. BYLLY - Carbon (HD Substance Remix)

Veteran artist HD Substance who runs the SUB tl label in Spain also joins the release. His back catalogue includes fine labels such as Joton's Newrhythmic, Xpansul's True Type Tracks, Housemeister's AYCB, Detroit Underground and Ricardo Garduno's Illegal Alien. The remix is an energetic piece from the off. A hustle and bustle pattern of frantic parts with a hypnotic and modular style melody, begin to open this up to new realms, carving out a contrasting and serious side.

03. Andres Gil - Radiation (Moteka Remix)

Moteka from France is a key player on Electric Rescue's Skryptöm family and can also be found on labels such as Children of Tomorrow, Mary Go Wild Black and Newrhythmic with solo material, or as part of super groups such as Möd3rn. His rework switches things up to a solid broken beat and gritty analogue sound. Completely transforming it into a new style with key remnants of the original, this is sound design at its finest.

04. Pyramidal Decode - Antidoto (Kirk Degiorgio Remix)

UK maestro Kirk Degiorgio is known for an eclectic production catalogue that spans his own Applied Rhythmic Technology (ART) Records, Carl Craig's Planet E, Rush Hour, Suara, or collaborating with Vince Watson and B12's Steve Rutter amongst others. Kirk Degiorgio's remix follows and opts for some haunting harmonics and a more mysterious feel. The introduction of morphing acid licks bring a whole new spaced out vibe adding a new layer of contrast to the original's sound structure.
