Brothers Harvey and Ryan McKay return to Drumcode with their dynamic Alias project.

We were introduced to Alias last year when the McKay brothers dropped the impact-heavy ‘Visions’ EP mid-way through 2017. The duo followed with a lauded contribution for Drumcode Live and the buzz from fans was palpable. The follow up sees the pair in powerhouse form. 

The title track ‘NRG’ is an attitude-packed tour de force; compromised of aggressive snares, warped vocals and a tension-filled break, it has been smashed by Adam Beyer for the last six months. ‘Orange Sunshine’ pulls no punches as it dishes out apocalyptic acid paired with the sibling’s startling drum work. ‘The Event’ rounds out the EP and is an exhilarating affair propelled by uplifting synth lines and a buzzing energetic bassline.

Spanish techno maestro Coyu kicks off this 2019 with a brand new pack on Suara imprint that includes up to 4 new raw and muscled weapons for the dance floor. If you like your techno hard and banging, there are great reasons for you to continue reading this piece, and above all, listen to one of the cutz included on this "Coyu Raw Tracks Vol. 4" which we are premiering exclusively today for you: "Vacuum 3000 (Coyu Raw Mix)".

"Vacuum 3000" appears to be an exploration of the broader influences that have fuelled Coyu. Well, at least two of them: Underground Techno and UK-Hardcore music. The '90s looms large in the record's spirit and execution. Dark and biting, this tune easily would tear up the club. Prepare your ears and judge for yourself!"

Coyu Raw Tracks Vol. 4 is set to be released this January 21 on Suara:

Tracklist:
1 Coyu - Just Can't Stop It (Coyu Raw Mix)

Wehbba collaborates with ghetto tech legend DJ Deeon, to deliver another superlative EP on Drumcode.

Since his debut on Drumcode in 2017, Brazil’s Wehbba has become one of the most dependable and impressive artists on the roster. Last year saw two standout EP’s ‘Eclipse’ and ‘Catarse’ drop on the imprint, alongside ‘Just’, his strong contribution to A-Sides Vol.7. He also made his mark playing Drumcode events at OFF Week, Resistance Ibiza and the much talked about double header in Manchester and Bristol when DC took over Warehouse Project and Motion respectively.

A true master craftsman in the studio, his first contribution for 2019 is typically impressive. A huge inspiration to Wehbba since his nascent raver days, ghetto tech icon DJ Deeon contributes a fierce vocal to ‘We Have Bass’, after a serendipitous hook up in São Paulo. A peak career moment collaborating with one of his original heroes and the artist responsible for the classic ‘Freak Like Me’, the resulting percussive-heavy cut kicks like a rodeo bull. ‘Third Wave’ is coffee geek Wehbba’s homage to his favourite brew, constructing the production to mirror the experience of a caffeine fix, as a loopy trance-inducing groove leads to powerful synth stabs that are heavy on impact. ‘Steamroller’ is a stripped back slice of techno driven by the Brazilian’s Korg MS-20 and found form after it initially begun as a studio jam inspired by Richie Hawtin’s ‘Minus Orange’. 

A Jean-Michel Jarre fan stretching back to his childhood, ‘Another Mistake’ was conceived after Wehbba saw the French legend in concert last year and was subsequently able to meet him backstage through a mutual friend. While creating the track, the producer imagined Jarre playing the main layers of the hook on his famous Laser-harp, eliciting an almost celestial quality with the melody. This is a stirring slice of techno fit for stadiums. The EP ends with ‘Purge’, the artist’s stream-of-consciousness expression recorded in one-take and a beautiful beat-less way to conclude the work.

Opening with title track 'I Still Remember' Fitzpatrick reels us in with his dystopic drums and ominous spoken word sample. Alan incorporates acid stabs and dark pads, creating at emotive yet eerie atmosphere. Remixing this is German producer Brennen Grey, known for his high pace, high energy sets - he's lit up the US scene playing EDC Vegas and Movement. His version of the original takes it to a darker place, with skippy percussion and an original vox.

The name doesn't give anything away here as Alan's original 'Buttered Otter' keeps the EP on a similar vibe with its deep, relentless pulsating drum. Fitzpatrick recruit's techno legend Mark Broom for this remix, with a stripped back feel which mirrors the original perfectly.

Finally, 'Emergency' drops a tribal beat and stomps with us all night long, and its spacey UR pads and sonics give it dreamy qualities in the break. SAMA drives in some swirling pads and a solid low end increasing the intensity. He manages to create warmth and an analogue vibe throughout - perfectly done!

Cologne-based Patrik broke into the scene back in 2010 with his unique spin on techno. Signed to a number of top dance labels including Intec and Filth On Acid, he describes his sound as something which can make people dance. 

“His raw sound with emotional melodies and deep lyrics really touched me when I listened to it.” @monikakruse said. 

The latest EP ‘Like Forever’ on @terminalm combines trance like melodies, growling FX and warehouse drums in a soulful meleé of emotive mind music. Tribal rhythms, spoken word vocals and splashy percussive underbelly complete the picture. 

Monika adds her magic touch to the remix of the lead track, teasing out the main motifs and injecting a large dose of her own personality. ‘Hope’ is a whirlwind of arps and kettledrum kicks that create a wildly expansive soundscape that hypnotises you by stealth.
