On ZR030 we are pleased to present our sophomore record for 2014's revamped launch of ZENBI RECORDINGS - After In My House - a Raging Techno release served up by Colombian producer Juan Ddd - with remixes from Rafa Barrios and Michele Pinna.  

Juan Ddd, born Juan Diego Mendoza Patiño, is coming off of a monster 2013.  With successful releases on Form, Definitive, 1605, and Spinnin Deep - artists like Umek, Sebastian Leger,  Stefano Noferini, Monika Kruse, and Uto Karem are taking notice and giving full support.  Juan Ddd's After In My House package is a nuclear powered techno submarine further armed to the hilt by Rafa Barrios' and Michele Pinna's weapons of dancefloor destruction.  

The Original Mix fires the first shot and craftily basses you into submission, not-so-gently building a steamroller of a groove that's got plenty of power and ample techno punch.  Rising Spanish Techno Star Rafa Barrios continues the barrage of musical assets, rooted by a fierce kick and rolling sub bassline that deftly raises the bar with not one but two massive breakdowns - each followed by a drop of seismic proportions.  Finally, Sardinian Producer Michele Pinna shows up, throws down - and takes the original's parts to another level of power, weight, and gate.  Boom.

British producer wAFF has been making waves in recent years, reflecting on a diligent 2015 spent playing across the likes of Europe, Africa, Asia and the States, when not making routine appearances at Paradise, Ibiza. As a producer he’s dropped several lauded releases on Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations imprint, not to mention Matthias Tanzmann’s Moon Harbour and Sven Väth’s Cocoon, with his next outing landing on renowned Swedish label Drumcode run by techno titan Adam Beyer.

Laying down hard hitting kicks from the off, ‘Holographic’ churns out an undulating synth combined with shuffling hats and a cavernous low-end, before ‘VibrationZ’ employs a low-slung groove fashioned from a sultry bassline, floating chords and sinister vocal. Tying it together, ‘Syncronistic’ is on a more heads down tip with whirring atmospherics, crunchy snares and subtle 303 squelches for a lengthy and mesmerising piece of production.

Ron Costa made a first label appearance back in 2013 with the dark groove and twisted vocals of ‘Berlidof’. The following year he was back, turning his remix talents to Paul Ritch’s ‘Pulse’. Today the Frenchman makes a welcome return with a brand new double-header - Goose / Erussel. 

Having had a global audience Dancin’ for the past twelve months Costa flies solo once again. Fresh from his excellent remix of Pig&Dan he delivers another brace of gripping techno tracks for SCI+TEC. 

The hypnotic Goose presents an almost asphyxiating groove that tightens throughout. One for the strobe-lit rooms, no doubt. Erussel on the flip is a different animal altogether. With its spacious beats and epic radiant rise, its a track that will have the dancer reaching for the celestial sphere.

Clio makes his return to Truesoul with an energetic, 3 track EP. The three tracks cover Clio’s wide repertoire and influences from many genres creating a dynamic, dance floor ready EP. Collaborating with Yvan Genkins on ‘London Rave’, the EP moves seamlessly from the tantalizing crescendos of ‘London Rave’ to the emotive and full force ‘Think Of You’ ending with the slightly heavier ‘No Shame’.

Over a 15-year period Truesoul has set the standard for engaging and effective club music, drawing in fans from across the techno spectrum. A relentless dedication to quality means it’s logistically impossible for Adam Beyer to release music from all the impressive artists who send him tracks each year for Truesoul. This EP showcases four such outstanding cuts, all of which have been tried and tested in Beyer’s sets in recent months. Indeed, anyone who witnessed his deliciously groove-ridden daytime set at Sonus Festival in August (or listened via episode DCR370), would have already been treated to an unofficial preview of the release. 

Belgian’s Ramon Tapia kicks the EP off in superb style with ‘Hexagon’, an energetic slice of techno that builds towards a pumping finish. Fast rising Manchester duo OC & Verde team up with Italian producer Veerus for ‘Naaki’, the track highlighted by a rousing call-to-arms vocal that saw it go down a storm during Beyer’s annual gig on the Amnesia Terrace for Cocoon in Ibiza. The beautiful vocal-led ‘Take My Life’ follows courtesy of Spaniard Marc Marzenit, adding an extra dimension to the release, while still having enough percussive fizz to keep the dancefloor moving. Southampton’s Ronnie Spiteri is another emerging talent to create waves in 2017 and he delivers the knockout blow with ‘Sugar Lips’, a chunky soul-infused offering that’ll be effective in house and techno sets alike.
