Heimat II
Arkan, Decka, Yant, Hitam
Pre-order: bit.ly/RYCL020_vinyl
Release date: February 19, 2024

Following a first iteration which set the tone for our newly-minted Heimat series in explosive fashion, here comes the much anticipated second batch of our zeitgeistian take on today’s scene’s, its current potential and destination. Showcasing productions from artists keen to roll up their sleeves and sail into the impassible status quo, this new number packs the kind of red-hot hammering and cutting-edge punch we’ve been so adamant to push and defend over the past decade.

Berlin-based French producer Arkan steps in first with a proper magnetic depth charge. Dwelling the darker layers of our ocean floor as its name suggests, ’Submarine’ is pure hypnotic material geared up for heavy-duty boogie in the warehouse. Filling its ballast tanks with a hefty deluge of muscular bass onslaughts, sonar-like bleeps and untamed cascades of loopy arps, this one rolls and pitches like a haunted ship on predator mode. Adding his dynamic pulse and mind-bending spin to the A-side, Frameworks & Untertwegs bossman Decka cuts a path of straight mental obliteration as he smashes the doors of the club wide open and parades all guns blazing with the unapologetic crusher that is ‘Circumvent’. A no-holds-barred workout for the strong stomachs, churning out fiery bars of kick-drum/squelchy bass contrast with in-your-face swagger.

Switching on to the flip side, there’s Manchester’s Yant cruising with the ebulliently dynamic (no shit, Sherlock) tune, ‘Moving’. A multidirectional concerto of pong-like modularity and racing synth arpeggios flying off like coloured bricks in a Tetris game gone absolute batshit. The kind of hi-intensity burner that’ll awaken any lukewarm mid-set flow with its bouncy unpredictability and ruthless forward-pushing thrust. Rounding it off on a further minimal note, Amsterdam up-and-comer Hitam treats us to an inch-perfectly engineered finale with a stripped-back - yet, absolutely not hollow - bomb, ‘Venusian Winds’. Gutsy that one sure is, with its metronomic step ticking at near-cyclonic speed and cleverly arranged, subtly FX-coated funk keeping things both suspenseful and focussed thru and thru. A sleek combo of pared-down brutalism and masterly executed analogue tailoring altogether.

All dressed in clear purple marbled wax for the occasion, "Heimat II" shall please both the techno purist and visual aesthete in you with its velvet touch and effortless chic.

Buy link: https://sidebvinyl.bandcamp.com/album/indol-sideb001

Introducing the inaugural release from the freshly launched SIDE B imprint, rkeat takes the reins with a striking four-track EP that sets the tone for what’s to come. Beginning as an event series, the Portuguese label makes way for no nonsense, driving club records and the first release is nothing if not that. Hybrid in spirit, rkeat delivers a refreshing take on techno that remains persistent in percussion but explorative for everything else. The seasoned producer pushes precisely designed texture to the forefront and lets the rest follow in suit, creating an intriguing and versatile track sequence. With each chapter, rkeat is able to blend razor-sharp textures with intricate sound design, letting every sonic detail shine through. 

The first side of ‘Indol’ sees spaced out elements creating a theme packed with elusive melodic work and enticing ambiances. Moving forward with impactful percussion, rkeat guides us through an ecosystem of sound with a twist at every turn. ‘End Of Tips’ on the second side of the record is a bit more extraverted, with rolling basslines and sixteenth hi hats. Opening up his record with groove while maintaining his sonic direction from the A Side, rkeat then closes the record in obscurity, offering the title track ‘Indol’. A cheeky hybrid of genres, this last chapter combines syncopated rhythms and breaks with early German techno experiments. Impressive in weight, ‘Indol’ ends the EP as a truly compelling debut that promises an exciting future for the label and its roster.

Zisko - They Are In Another Dimension

Buy here: found.ee/crowd-007

Dajusch unleashes the 'Ambition EP', a raw and uncompromising statement of techno tradition. Berlin-based producer, DJ and sound engineer Dajusch returns with his latest four-track EP, a high-powered offering that channels the essence of Detroit and Chicago techno while pushing the boundaries of contemporary club sound. Known for his deep connection to electronic music’s pioneering roots and his work behind the scenes as a mastering engineer, Dajusch brings an intense and refined energy to this release.

The EP opens with the single 'No Mas', a relentless percussive workout where hypnotic synths intertwine with driving drum patterns, setting the stage for an unyielding ride. The title track 'Ambition' follows suit with a high-octane groove, combining raw machine-funk aesthetics with a pulsating bassline and intricate, evolving textures that command the dance floor.

On the flip side, 'Split' takes a darker and more cerebral turn, layering industrial-tinged sonics over a tight, rolling beat, blurring the line between peak-time energy and introspective depth. Closing out the EP is '36g', a heady, propulsive cut that builds into a whirlwind of syncopated rhythms and distorted stabs, rounding off the record with a powerful, no-holds-barred climax.

With Ambition, the Spandau20 artist Dajusch reinforces his position as a purist and innovator, delivering a release that feels both timeless and forward-thinking. Whether experienced in the heart of a sweaty warehouse or through the pulse of a late-night drive, this EP stands as a testament to the raw, unfiltered power of techno.
