Stephen Disario delivers four-tracks as the debut release on his newly-launched imprint, and in so doing sets the tone for the output we can expect in years to come: driving basslines and infectious percussion crafted with meticulous perfection. Throughout the four tracks, Disario showcases what he does so well as a producer: groovy, funky techno that will always find its home in a proper underground techno setting.

The EP starts off with "Under The Rug," an hypnotic masterpiece that sucks listeners in and takes them deeper and deeper as the track's intensity builds and reaches its peak.

"Walking Through Trees" is next, picking up the tempo with an added groove carrying the track throughout... a real dance floor mover.

The pace continues with "The Marathon," a percussion-driven stomper characterized by well-crafted peaks and valleys permeated by distorted eerie vocals.

To conclude the EP, "Lights Down Under" showcases Disario's other signature techno soundscape. Here he takes the funk route, using an 808 clap and eerie howl broken by hard to discern and yet catchy vocals to great results.

Elata Premiere: James Smyth - Fragrant [MZRRECDIG005]

Portuguese techno mainstay Dextro drops cultured EP ‘Covil Dos Abutres’ for his label debut on Mutual Rytm.

Dextro has been immersed in electronic music and DJing since the early 90s. In the decades since, he has become synonymous with a sound deeply rooted in simplicity and authenticity. Fuelled by a passion for his craft, his production process is guided by intuition and spans a diverse range of styles, from tunnelling grooves to more potent techno with deep and hypnotic layers. He has held several key residencies and released on top labels like CLR and Missile Records, and he adds to those with a first outing on SHDW’s Mutual Rytm with ‘Covil Dos Abutres’.

The five-track 12” and eight-track digital EP has a sleek, stripped-back style, with wide-spanning corners of the techno realm explored. ‘Covil Dos Abutres’ is a deep space transmission with journeying, frictionless beats and deft sci-fi motifs that recall classic touches synonymous with the genre’s pioneers. ‘Correct Incorrect’ keeps the pressure on with more rubbery, dubbed-out groves beautifully decorated with delicate melodies. ‘Vida E Morte’ is another sublime and hypotonic minimal techno sound with funk in the kicks and a freaky late-night spirit. ‘Element One’ again combines perfectly reduced drum groves with atmospheric pads and curious samples that keep you intrigued, and 'Beautiful Day' closes out with sonar-like synth pulses over the most skeletal but captivating rhythms.

Digital cuts 'Time Line’, ‘Savana Urbana’, and ‘Diferenças’ further explore the intersection of minimalism with cosmic synth designs that take you off into distant astral worlds.

Dextro ‘Covil Dos Abutres’ lands on Mutual Rytm on 4th April 2025.

Elata stands for a flower which offers you the impression to kiss your deepest mind beyond your profound conscious and gives you a loud and extensive dump through your body.That is the quintessence of what we want to create, from the cavernous infancy of organic sounds to the purity of heavy drums, we aim to drive you into an hypnotic and shamanic bubble of sounds where your mind will be trapped following fast rhythms, as captured by the chemical kiss of Elata.
