Proving that patience doesn’t necessarily forego energy, Dino Sabatini arrives on Mantis with a charged, imposing statement of meditative techno. Sabatini has been at the forefront of the deep techno scene since the mid 00s, cultivating a sound with his own Outis Music which acknowledges the structures of club music while reaching beyond obvious drama and brute force, offering something more subliminal instead. On Mantis 06, Sabatini blurs the lines between organic and electronic percussion as he doubles down on steadfast rhythms executed with delicacy and impact in equal measure.

Matching microscopic detail and stark minimalism with a pervading warmth and open, natural flow, @tammohesselink shores up on Mantis with four refined and distinctive techno variations. Tammo operated under a number of different guises before, debuting as The Invariants via a self-steered series in 2014 before scattering a tangled web of projects across Nous'klaer Audio. On Mantis 07 he takes a granular approach to techno, using space as a vital ingredient to expose the fine detail in each rhythmic impression and passing texture.

Terrain, a new collaborative project from two London-based artists, debuts on the Delsin Mantis series. With an appropriately immersive, subliminal approach to contemporary techno, they present a sound split between low BPM, creeping intensity and dynamic broken techno. It clearly implies an acute instinct for the vibe the sublabel is exploring. Steely, dub-kissed textures and impulses shape out the space, while the drums fall in crisp, precisely interlocking formations.

Verdant Recordings emerge for their 10th release with a four-track vinyl EP somewhat amusingly titled 'Less Popular Than Cats', comprised of untitled ambient compositions that are equally heady and refreshing, sourced from Reedale Rise Jo Johnson, Romanticise The World, and O.utlier.

Konduku (@kondukukonduku) returns to the Delsin Mantis series with an exciting double pack (Mantis 09 + 10) which dives deeper into his remarkable fractured rhythms and light-touch synthesis. Over the course of nine tracks Ruben Üvez straddles the space between introspective headphone trips and hypnotising dancefloor elegance, operating in a liminal zone of fluid tempos, submerged atmospheres and pointillist beats. It's an open-ended but clear-sighted approach that aligns perfectly with the direction of the Mantis series.

On Mantis 09 Üvez follows a progressive, patient arc of energy from the glassy chimes and pin-prick percussion of 'Özlem' via 'Scale's reduced, atonal echo chamber and the half-time prowl of 'Derinkuyu' to the dense, humid pressure of 'Swerve'. Restraint maintains throughout, even as we take in a broad spectrum of the Konduku sound.

Konduku (@kondukukonduku) returns to the Delsin Mantis series with an exciting double pack (Mantis 09 + 10) which dives deeper into his remarkable fractured rhythms and light-touch synthesis. Over the course of nine tracks Ruben Üvez straddles the space between introspective headphone trips and hypnotising dancefloor elegance, operating in a liminal zone of fluid tempos, submerged atmospheres and pointillist beats. It's an open-ended but clear-sighted approach that aligns perfectly with the direction of the Mantis series.

Mantis 10 opens up with the circular electronica of 'Trail', masking the start and end points of the groove with the kind of polymetric construction Üvez has made his name with. The pattern continues through the displaced, dubby experimentation of 'Lust' before the more sharply defined transcendental tone of 'Lavender' cuts through the fog. 'Dalgin' rides its pattering percussion on a minimalist D&B growl, setting the scene for the dislocated, avant-darkside closer 'Helles’.

This tune is 14 years old. I found it the other day, upset, lonely and very angry on a long forgotten old hard drive...

Dalmata Daniel ‎– DDE05
LAU
[10" Lathe cut / Digital]

In the past few years LAU has become one of the key figures of Budapest electronic music and club scene as a DJ and producer. Our label's relationship with her musical journey goes back almost to the beginning, as we had the privilege of releasing her first track on one of our compilations with Farbwechsel, followed by quite a few songs on more various artists, her first remix for Krypton 81 and a collaboration EP with CT Kidobó.

Now, Dalmata Daniel has the honour to share LAU's first 4-track solo release on our DDE series. We are sure a lot of people have waited for this as we are. DDE05 is a nice variety of her sounds lead by electro influence that we can catch all in her tracks.

'Mort Subite' and 'Sea Of Distance' are based on strong melodies, bright and uplifting in the first one and melancolic in the last one, but both are deep emotional and of course these tracks come with heavy broken beats. In contrast, the two middle songs, 'Lip-Size Bites' and 'Freak It All Night' have a raw electro sound with ghettotech influences and vocals by herself!

Petroll - Waals

New myths; remember downstream, the truth and sacred geometry. Unlikely and bright, it weighs waves like an anchor through pinch unconscious – unread and still.

We are understanding - process born from fact. The rope is taut, calm, made of ritual and leading us back – but in telling it transforms; pre-linguistic, stamped, fully dynamic, the start refracts into new versions and inwards we fold. It remains rhythm in absence, but grows as we watch.

Next thread drawn from the Mirror Zone, this one built by Vector Trancer. Our plate reads panoptic; dark dub and ambient loaded with psychoactive EBM. See further; MSB’s vital experiments powered by half-speed Beat Box; distant Objets D’Art channelling through Namlook’s Fax; pared down FSoL at the hands of Autocreation. Celestial fringe echoes, viridis mantra, and guttural/ceremony trudge.

Direct knowledge, heavy and charged.

The latest installment in Delsin’s deep-diving Mantis series comes from Varuna. As a core fixture in the Basel, Switzerland-based amenthia crew, this secretive production collective have quietly issued compelling excursions into dense, immersion-chamber techno. Following their standout LP Metamorph and an EP on their own label A Walking Contradiction, Varuna gift Mantis three subtly sublime, long-form pulsations that evolve slowly but purposefully, drawing the ear and mind further into a place of intense meditation.
