Paul Ritch is no stranger to Drumcode and has returned with an outstanding single featuring three tracks that will dominate DJ sets. The first track ‘Run Baby Run’ entertains us with an arpeggiated chord sequence that is accompanied by percussion-like synth sounds before bursting into a thick-layered sequence of sound. The dark and dubby side of the single see’s Paul’s ‘Astral’ bring a funky sleazed out groovy track that also uses a discerning melody. ‘Mind Insistence’ is a dark 5am groove that will keep the dance floor swaying in the early hours with it’s tripped out feel and syncopated percussion.

Adam Beyer and Ida Engberg come together to create a new track after the success of the highly acclaimed 'Lovecraft'. 'Unanswered Question' uses a weighty kick drum and a sensuous vocal before the track breaks into some groovy synth stabs. Julian Jeweil's remix of 'Unanswered Question' is a late night dubbed out version that compromises of a groove that pulsates throughout and falls into the original synth stabs before rising back into the funky, dubbed out groove. The Dense & Pika remix uses unusual percussion to produce a chunky groovy rhythm. When the track breaks it takes the listener on an eerie journey before it kicks back in to the chunky drum beat. The final track 'Virga' is a more melodic techno offering that finishes the single off with a classy finish.

De Sluwe Vos - Vibe Over Money EP [Soulfood]

Sam’s EP boot’s off with ‘Chocolate’, a track that builds and builds using detuned synths, stabs and funky drums to make any dance floor erupt. ‘Domino’ is a track that’s bassline drones underneath its own distinctive synth line to keep the drums rolling along steadily. The title track ‘Black Leather’ is everything you would expect in a Drumcode record; a subtle throbbing bass line which, keeps the track moving before the synth stabs enrapture the track and twist it into a dark, throbbing composition. The final track ‘Daegon’ uses dubbed out drums to incorporate a synth melody line that will blow your socks off and rounds off this well shaped EP.

Killa Productions Promo Mix 2010

Gaiser - Pullpush

Having developed an impeccable reputation in the past twenty years since delving into the word of turntables and mixtapes at an early age, Sims can be called a genuine legend in the world of techno. As a producer he has remixed Jeff Mills, Chris Liebing, Adam Beyer and Kevin Saunderson as well as releasing on just about every seminal techno imprint there is. As an A&R he’s been at the helm of nine labels, including the highly influential Ingoma and KB Records inc, and continues to steward Theory and Hardgroove towards the boxes of the discerning fans. 

Most recently the London-based producer has seen his ‘Way Back Wednesday’ (with Tony Anderson), ‘Funk You’ and occasional disco radio shows garner huge support while ploughing further energy into the futurist techno club night “Machine’ alongside Kirk Degiorgio. 

It’s with Sims’ multitude of achievements and notoritey in mind that the knowledge that ‘Smoke & Mirrors’ is his debut LP is somewhat unbelievable, but fact it is. After initially hooking up with Adam Beyer’s Drumcode imprint late in 2010 after a long standing friendship, the affable and dry witted Sims’ was persuaded to deliver an LP and the lengthy writing and selection process began. The result is 11 superb productions which showcase Ben’s talents, influences and perhaps most importantly, his vision of what techno can and should be. 

From the off ‘Smoke & Mirrors’ is a technicolour affair that refuses to sit too comfortably into one groove, preferring to pull the listener through a range of vibes that, while disparate, flow together perfectly. As the album moves, snippets of new vibes bleed through before developing into themes and this is one of the brilliant elements of ‘Smoke & Mirrors’.  

The rousing and prophetically titled ‘Riots in London’ opener leads us into a frenetic, dub-tinged and filter-driven aesthetic which is neatly carried on in ‘Descent’ but subtly augmented with almost-there soulful vocal samples. This nod to soulful elements is then carried on in the less pacey, house referencing ‘ The Snake’ which fuses stabbing keys to a skipping beat which is as much New York as it is Detroit, London or Berlin. 

As ‘Smoke & Mirrors’ develops, suprises like the out-and-out tech-funk of ‘Back To The Pod’ and the street party disco of ‘Can You Feel It?’ are hinted at but never lack surprise when dropped. The emphatic drive of the huge sounding ‘I Wanna Go Back’ featuring Blake Baxter takes things back to techno territory and does so with real purpose while darker edged tracks such as the lethal ‘Bullet’ and the late-night discordance of  ‘The Afterparty’ ramp up the tension. 

The twilight sections of Sims’ debut are perfectly judged. The dubbed (and blissed) out title track lightens the mood before the slightly more aggressive but widescreen ‘The Calling’ trips proceedings out in anticipation of the closer, the Tyree Cooper vocalled and aptly titled ‘I Feel It Deep’

‘Smoke & Mirrors’ has been more than worth the wait. It’s as balanced, entertaining, engaging and powerful as you’d expect from such an artist as Ben Sims and, complete with artwork from Alan Oldham and collaborations from Blake Baxter and Tyree Cooper, is essential stuff.

After the positive reactions on "Diablo", Oliver and I naturally decided to dive into a follow-up (with a rather appropriate title)! Not sure why we chose Spanish names but we seemed to be onto a good thing so we decided to keep nurturing those creative instincts. We had quite a few ideas going back and forth with this one, hence the two-part approach to the final version. Conceptually and with the working title, we wanted to take a lighter approach to this one, creating something less sinister than "Diablo" and I think that we succeeded nicely, helping to eventually take things into our "Elements" series. I should also mention how excited we were to have a brilliant Gaiser mix for this! - Dubfire

DJ Bazooka - Progressive Tunes (October 2012)

Gabriel D&#8217;Or &amp; Bordoy continue to unfold their scroll of skills and this time they have delved into even more uncharted territory and, of course, emerged victorious.

&#8220;Carbon 7&#8221; starts out deceivingly with shadowy elements and otherworldly effects,which unexpectedly give way to old school chords that firmly stand their ground and lead to a breakdown of epic proportions. The same vibe continues on &#8220;Carbon 12&#8221;, where grinding drums and subtle stabs share center stage with the now familiar chords that, once again, take things to a whole new level.

Gabriel D'Or & Bordoy - Carbon 7 (Original Mix)

Alex Bau is the the true, post-apocalytpic gatekeeper. The stomping drums of his latest offering provide the backdrop for his effects-laden soundscape, letting layers of noise do the talking, while engulfing the unsuspected listener in a multitude of shadows.The Spektre remix is a hypnotic rumble with a bass-heavy attitude and micro riffs interplaying with synth snippets. As always, the boys have maintained their cavernous vibe while mutating the original&#8217;s elements in style.

Steve Lawler - Avaida (The Organ Track) out now on VIVa MUSiC.

18th March: Digital http://www.beatport.com/release/avaida-the-organ-track/1059125
11th March: Vinyl (ORDER: http://www.juno.co.uk/ppps/products/483008-01.html)

Steve Lawler & VIVa MUSiC come with his first EP of 2013, "Avaida (The Organ Track)". This is a special release for Steve, named after his daughter to be, whom will be born in March. Hence the release date. 

This track is known for its characteristic organ interludes. Already a massive track throughout the VIVa Warriors season 2012 in Ibiza, it finally sees the official release as a special vinyl picture disc. Between pulsing beats and a sexy groove, this track breaks down to show off an impressive display of organ notes, in celebration hitting keys up and down the scale. Thriving with life (hence the name) from the beginning, the production displays a multitude of layers and percussion, from its solid drum groove, to cymbals, high hats, claps and synths and its sexy bass line accompanied by the melody of the organ. Already gained support from the very limited 4 artists to have it, Seth Troxler, Jamie Jones, Pete Tong and our friend Darius Syrossian.

The special item vinyl picture disc makes this EP an exciting start to the year for Steve and the VIVa MUSiC crew. The digital release will drop a little later with a stunning interpretation from Murk.

"I named this track after my darling daughter to be, because like making a baby this record took me on and off 9 months to make. This record means a lot to me it has taken many many hours to make this record what it is, produced with analogue equipment made the way music used to be made and was mixed down on a mixing desk like the old days" - Steve Lawler

Steve LAWLER - Avaida (The Organ Track) (Murk Remix) /// VIVa MUSiC 2013

We asked Stereo:Type about the process of making this mix, and here is what he had to say:

"When you're commissioned to make a mix for DJ Shadow, you know you have to pull something special out of the bag. Making sure it was a musical experience was as much a key part of this as making it a hype mix to listen to, considering you are working with material by a guy whose process involves finding sounds which work together as though they were made for one another. When i was approached to do this, I was asked to make the mix using material either sampled by, or remixed for or by Shadow. So Instead of making it a straight up one track into another kind of mix, I tried to approach it like a live performance, deconstructing tracks into their component parts then re-assembling and combining them with my own take on it. I certainly hope people have as much of a blast listening to it as i did making it."

Enjoy!

Booka Shade - Regenerate (Popof Remix)

Alan Fitzpatrick's new EP 'In the Beginning' makes the most of the industrial techno style with ambient percussion to create space and rhythm giving ‘In the Beginning’ a big warehouse feel. The droning synth carries the track through before a melodic synth line gives the track the boldness that has seen the Alan Fitzpatrick sound become infamous around the world. Lexicon uses a pitch bending synth as well as old-school synth strings and pads to create another atmospheric track that will be a staple in any techno set.

The world prog fans shed tears when BLACK BONZO anounced their demise back in 2009. Most of them got their revival when GIN LADY rose from the ashes of BLACK BONZO, containing most members of BLACK BONZO. GIN LADY released their self titled debut back in 2012, and the reviwes were far better than fabolous ! Taking a step back towards the classic rock sounds, but still maintaining the unique sound of BLACK BONZO, one could not ask for a better debut album. Keeping the productive interest of creating new music GIN LADY now strikes back, attacking in full scale ! Not giving us a ordinary 40 minute album, but a album, clocking in on more close to 70 minutes, we get the GIN LADY fever again !!
