With the comeback of his moniker, Polyvinyl, UMEK goes back to his hardgroove origins. In addition, he is starting a new record label called 1605 GrooveSector, which will specialise in raw techno and hardgroove.

Slovenian-born UMEK has a career that dates back to the 1990s, when he was among the musicians that helped create and pioneer the first hardgroove movement. His iconic Recycled Loops project produced a number of groundbreaking songs that shaped the modern genre.

UMEK’s music has changed throughout the course of his three-decade career to reflect contemporary styles, and he has continued to be one of the most significant techno artists. His career is coming full circle with the return of the Polyvinyl pseudonym, and he is once again embracing the improvisational production style that once brought him international recognition.

For this DT:Premiere we selected the title track “Mechanically Intensive” with a rolling bassline and filtered percussion. Jerking synth stabs are added to boost the offbeat energy, but it’s the timeless, tribal and schranz-like rhythms that create the throwback, dance floor burning sound.

Arkan [LIVE]
(se pronoce Arcane)

 Bercé par la musique depuis son plus jeune âge, Arkan s'intéresse d'abord à la scène rock/métal et se découvre une passion pour la basse électrique. Après 5 ans de pratique, c'est tout naturellement qu'il se tourne vers la musique électronique et plus particulièrement vers le monde de la techno, des festivals et des ''Free Party''.

Peu à peu une idée de plus en plus forte l'obsède: composer sa propre musique. 
En 2015, il intègre le collectif MIKROKOSM, ce qui lui permet à travers l'organisation d'événements de se produire dans différents lieux comme l'Ubu, le 1988 live club, le Jardin Moderne ou encore le Ferrailleur, auprès de pointures telles que Ganez The Terrible, Sevenum Six, Principles of Flight, Mayeul ou encore Benji 303.

Armé de ses machines et doté d'un sens certain pour les percussions, Arkan vous plongera dans un univers sombre et envoûtant alliant des rythmiques qui lui sont propre, des lignes de basse intenses et des synthés hypnotiques... Amateurs de Tribe / Tekno / Mental, accrochez-vous pour ce voyage haut en couleur.

Halt die Fresse wenn du mit mir redest
Mit mir zu chillen ist wie Uno spielen 
, entweder du kannst legen oder du ziehst eine vom Haufen

(Frankie Bones)
The techno wave is grown with the style of our own direction direct from Brooklyn. 
Essensial fun, kick and snare, make you feel it over there out in London.

Call it techno
You can feel the Bass
Call it techno,...technobass

It started in Detroit, but i had to exploit the way i hear it.
Techno house is the sound of the dance cult underground, i know you feel it.

Call it techno, you can feel the bass
Call it techno,... technobass

Hold up, wait a minute, let me put off, bass in it

In the club board, in your car, the sound will take far,
You know you feel it. Also the people overseas when they hear it

Call it techno
you can feel the bass, call it techno,....technobass

House once was innovative, but now is in a state of acid
With acid house there was a confusion over a drug abuse illusion
But i don't use it, cause i like techno, you can feel the bass.

Call it techno,... technobass

hold up, wait a minute, letme putof, bass in it.

Computer noise and pounding bass hits you in the facelike a hammer.
And now you see how we rock without the kids down the block, party people

We call it TECHNO, .... TECHNOBASS

I like what I like.
what i like is raw music that bleeds into rare music.
