Hailing from the concrete post-communist city of Sofia, Balthazar &amp; JackRock make their first appearance on Hypnostate. Promoting their own festivals, touring on six continents and appearing on top-notch techno labels, the Bulgarians have been deeply involved in the electronic music scene for the past 25 years.

Starting with "Bizarre Blue", Balthazar &amp; JackRock deliver their signature stomping beats, combined with uplifting melodies, which drive the energy levels to the roof. Layered with mind-twisting vocals, acid sounds and a wholesome of percussion, "Psychedelic" is representing the duo's own flairly polished perception of modernised industrial techno. "Frame Of Mind" comes from the melodic side of Balthazar &amp; JackRock, adding a softer touch to the EP. Nostalgic arps, trancy pads and emotional basslines enhancing the illusion of depth will draft you to another dimension. Concluding with &bdquo;Step Into The Void" - a very energetic piece loaded with solid rocking drums, joining forces with the uprising joyful synths and raving groans, it has the proper rave sentiments being added to it.

Originally from Italy but currently UK based, Anthony Castaldo is the latest artist to join the Intec roster, and he comes to the label following previous releases on imprints such as Unrilis, Respekt Recordings and AnalyticTrail.

Alongside many solo tracks, Anthony Castaldo has also collaborated with artists such as Luigi Madonna, Markantonio, Roberto Capuano have put him firmly on the map. He is constantly evolving, ever on the hunt for new, unique sounds to add to his productions, charactized by their melodies and atmospheric sounds.

Popular with many of the taste making DJs of the worlds techno scene, one of his tracks was supported by Richie Hawtin in nearly all of his gigs for numerous months, and that is just one of his many noteworthy accomplishments.

Kalt that features Raniero opens the EP with a stripped back sound and dark atmosphere that leads towards the main breakdown where the eerie vocal spoken in German is unleashed. The captivating spoken work combined with the menacing urgency of the lead synth give this hard hitting cut an ominous mood brimming with tension.

The rattle of mechanical hi-hats over a thundering bassline sets the scene for Phase Of Love which unfolds with brooding intensity. Haunting melody synths and rubbery textures fuse with the creepy vocal drive until the sweeping pads take hold after the main break. Building in momentum, this forceful track commands dance floor respect and admiration.

Closing the three tack EP is Strange Things that takes an understated approach in comparison to the previous offerings on this release, but it still packs a serious punch with its hard-hitting percussion and subtle acid squelches that sit behind the modulating lead synth. Intricate and full of drama, this track has a subtle yet effective style.

Skober - Keep The Fires Burning [Dolma Records]

A testament to the growth of Adam Beyer’s scene-leading label, Drumcode annual A-Sides Vol.8 is the brand’s biggest yet.

The 25-track strong compilation features standout cuts Beyer has received over the last 12 months, but been unable to find room for in Drumcode’s regular release schedule, such is the volume and high standard of music that’s submitted.

The highlight-rich compilation includes Jamie Jones & Darius Syrossian’s buzzy Drumcode debut ‘Eyes of the Night’, Nicole Moudaber’s first DC release in 5 years with the mesmerizing ‘This Is Us’, Will Clarke’s bass-drenched re-work of Adam Beyer & Bart Skils ‘Your Mind’ and Joey Beltram’s first Drumcode release in 11 years with the retro-tinged ‘Can You Feel It’. 

The beloved Alan Fitzpatrick returns to the fold with the searing ‘Heiße Rakete’, alongside label mainstays Layton Giordani, who drops the stirring chord-driven ‘Chrome’ and Wehbba with ‘Mantra’, combining techno classicism with future-focused groove.

There’s a troupe of debutants donning the Drumcode jersey for the first time, including BEC, Shelley Johannson, Anthony Castaldo, Avision, Zimmz, Woo York, SAMA (in a terrific collaboration with Secret Cinema) and Ilija Djokovic, who delivers a shimmering highlight with ‘Aura’, a particular favourite of Beyer’s over the last year. Raxon also debuts on the label after a couple of quality additions to the Truesoul back catalogue.

Exciting young guns Weska and Juliet Fox bring heat to the compilation, while Veerus and Timmo follow up strong DC releases with a repeat dose. Elsewhere faithful contributors Ramon Tapia, Jay Lumen, Luca Agnelli, Marco Bailey and Mark Reeve craft powerful dancefloor weapons.
