Fresh from their recent nomination for DJ Mag’s top North American label, My Favorite Robot is delighted to welcome an exciting partnership for its next EP: Body Language is the work of German techno titan Timo Maas and acclaimed UK producer, composer and sometime UNKLE associate Aidan Lavelle. In addition, Re.You comes correct with a remix that seals this fine deal.

Maas’s longstanding involvement in the scene sees him still at the top of his game in 2017. His own Rockets & Ponies label continues to set the techno agenda whilst he has seen multiple Grammy nominations and has collaborated with musical legends such as of Paul McCartney, Brian Molko (Placebo) & Kelis. His partner here, Aidan Lavelle, is a UK composer and producer who has worked with the Crosstown’s Rebellion label and Get Physical, has done many film scores and has also collaborated with Gorillaz, Ian Brown, Queens Of The Stone Age and many others.

Over the course of seven minutes, the essential ‘Body Language’ is an all consuming deep techno cut with absorbing atmospheres from the off. It is characterised by spinetingling melodies that rise up the scale with real poise and serve to take you higher. The drums are warm and underlapping and the whole thing really sweeps you off your feet as grinding bass, crisp hits and sci-fi pads add colour in subtle but effective ways.

Berlin based Re.You from labels like Cocoon and Connected then steps up to add his own spin. The live show specialist flips the track into something more freaky and subversive, with eerie synths and stretched vocals filled with suspense and tension. It’s a sparse track underpinned by broad bass and languid synths and is one to really get in your head.

This is a stellar new single which is sure to prove a huge release for all concerned.

KUMP is delighted to release the first EP by HLM38 (ou HLM38’s first EP), the naughty half of duo Ricco and member of the Notte Brigante crew from Lyon. The three original tracks, a mix of ethnic looting and industrial racket in slow motion, feel like steel wrapped in Turkish delight. Front de cadeaux’s take on “Illicite Cong” is reminiscent of an erotic rave flavoured with Oriental spices. Last but not least, Kris Baha slices up “Exit” like a tablier de sapeur (local Lyonnais dish) served on a julienne of  syncopated samples and noisy beats.

Short info: 
It wouldn't be an overstatement to say that Opium is currently the most talked about club North of Berlin. Vilnius based spot has built its reputation slowly but surely to become one of the brightest lights in the night sky of Europe. The club has earned the admiration of local crowd, loyalty of visiting artists and respect of industry insiders by nurturing unique local talent, bringing cutting edge House & Techno acts on a weekly bases, building a devoted community and rocking the parties of the highest intensity and unprecedented intimacy. Its no wonder Boiler Room and Resident Advisor both came knocking on the door in 2017 for special features and events.

2018 marks another milestone in club’s incredible journey: the first ever music compilation entitled “Opium of the People”, a rock solid collection of 13 unreleased tracks by core residents and the members of extended Opium family from all around the world featuring Tel Aviv’s producer and song writer Autarkic, Australia-born-Europe-bound New Age travellers Dreems and Kris Baha, Canadian smooth operator Thomas Von Party, Frankfurt’s Musikmaschine Lauer, German-Mexican studio encounter of Sebastian Voigt & Theus Mago, Berlin based Spanish fashionista Hugo Capablanca, Detroit legend Sharif Laffrey and Russian crate digging trio of Leonid Lipelis, Sergey Krylow and Ilya Simonov under the name of Plungerbird x Beard in Dust. Most of them are coming to Lithuanian capital’s hot spot so often, they could easily start their own fan clubs in town. The local talent also gets a well-deserved attention. Manfredas, Siaubas, Pletnev, and V find their place on the compilation and bring the modern sound of Vilnius nights to the vanguard.  

“Opium of the People” has been conceived and compiled by Vidmantas “V” Cepkauskas, the head of programming and resident DJ of Opium, a well-known contributor to the electronic music scene for nearly two decades. He has reinvented a friends-to-friends after-hours place into an international music institution in a matter of six seasons and is the best candidate to curate and present “Opium of the People”.

Charlois welcomes back label inaugurator Dollkraut, this time in company with De Ambassade. The label grants permission for them to share this 10'' and create their own world, so they can coexist and share stories about lost love, condolence and isolation. On the A-side they come together in a dark room anthem about sex, lust and worship. It oozes with cold, heart-stabbing melancholia, yet carries the artists idiosyncratic warm and crunchy sound. The flip side scratches open the wounds left by the first song and sees Dollkraut drop his soft touch. What follows is a hypnotic voodoo track, summoning dark spirits with unsettling synths, shamanic vocals and tribal Jewish harp.

Dins El Llit  - Superpitcher Remix
The Ghosts Hood - Samo DJ Remix
Brutal Chugga Chugga - L.B. Dub Corp Remix
Loser’s Hymn - Powder Remix


John Talabot and Axel Boman teamed up in 2017 for their R&S debut ’The Night Land’ where they got to flex their creative muscles over eight tracks of rich synth jams.  

The two electronic artists have been independently successful in their respective careers, but as Pitchfork expressed in their glowing review “Their collective output doesn’t sound much like either’s work; it doesn’t even necessarily reflect the thin, convex sliver where their interests overlap. Instead, they’ve hit upon something new.”

This new sound also proved to be a hit with the likes of Mojo, Phonica, XLR8R, Self Titled and DJ Mag all including it their annual best of lists.

The artists have now handpicked four artists to create their own vision of the Talaboman sound.  
Superpitcher, Samo DJ, Luke Slater under his L.B. Dub Corp alias and Powder have all seriously delivered the goods.

Autarkic - I Love You, Go Away // The Remixes (Digital/Hand stamped Limited Vinyl)
OUT 4.5.18


Autarkic's productions found their place somewhere crossbreed between casual home listening and banging dance floor tunes, for which his incredible live sets are notorious for. The way he's able to turn a simple house tune into a dark, wavy trip almost reminds one of a magic trick.

To remix Autarkic, with his tunes so on point, that is hard enough. Nevertheless, four brave people dared to do so. Who else would have been ready to take on the challenge than Red Axes & Simple Symmetry?

This is the battle of the duo's and everyone's invited to watch.
First released on digital and a limited edition of hand stamped records are coming in the near future.

When Harold Boué aka Abstraxion invited Fantastic Man into his studio after playing together the night before he didn't knew he was planting the seed for a new project. Three cuts driven by warmly distorted rhythms, bursts of primitive drums, rubbery synths and uplifting chants that overall feel like the first sunrays after an excursion through a dark cave: both blinding and blissful.

PRÈMIÉRE: Lion's Drums - Bain De Soleil [Hivern Discs]

In 2017, Benedikt Frey released his breathtaking debut album with the ESP Institute, 'Artificial', and now as we finally come up for air, we’re more than proud to offer an eclectic collection of remixes that’s nothing short of essential. Side A leads with 'H For Hysteria' remixed by a beloved hero, Nicolas Chaix a.k.a. I:Cube, one of the most prolific and respected electronic artists Paris has to offer. His touch is considered and elegant, imbuing the track with a tasteful 303+808 backbone to support an array of patiently floating melodies and angelic vocal samples. Following this, Tolouse Low Trax of Düsseldorf’s infamous Salon Des Amateurs remixes the same track, stripping instrumentation down to a skeletal palette of bass guitar and stabbing percussive punctuations, chopped up inna minimalist stylee that has become his beat-making signature. Side B leads with a remix by another Düsseldorfer, DJ Normal 4, whose re-imagination of 'Private Crimes' takes us for an even more menacing ride, half-timing the tempo and skillfully rolling out an assault of jungle snares from rave days of yore. Closing the release is the most aggressive remix of them all, a bonafide techno beatdown of the same track by DALO, the co-producing artist to whose haunting vocals lace the original version. Her dark vision opens with sparse industrial drums that blossom into a driving assault of raw machinery, definitely not for the faint-of-heart. An all-around solid release here, fun for all the family… more than just the tip!

Radio Slave enlists two heavyweights remixes from Dixon and Underground Resistance, who reimagine ‘Trans’ - the twisted, bass-driven cut on Radio Slave’s excellent inaugural album.

First up, Innervisions co-founder Dixon offers an inspired retouch containing an amalgamation of cosmic synth arpeggios, each one unfolding in a unique way as the track develops, supported by a prominent vacillating bassline.

On the flip, Detroit techno pioneers Underground Resistance provide a ‘Hamtramck’ remix features crunchy modulated synths and heavily delayed vocal slices that duck in and out before funk influenced guitar licks resonate alongside a plethora of dark effects.
