Extrawelt - Jetzt Neu: Alles Wie Früher

Buy/stream: https://kompakt.fm/releases/sound_of_mind_remixes

Over the past decade, Egyptian-born, Barcelona-based DJ and techno producer Raxon has popped out a steady stream of twelve-inch singles, precision-tooled, for labels like Cocoon, Drumcode, Diynamic, Truesoul, and Ellum Audio. An alumni of Kompakt’s Speicher series – check the insistent, vibrating pulses of “The Ancient” and “Dark Light” on 2019’s Speicher 107 he boarded the Kompakt mothership with last year’s Sound Of Mind (KOMPAKT 433). A long-awaited debut album that is both for the dancefloor and the boudoir, traversing the heat of the club and the warmth of the home.

And just in time for what we expect to be a full return to festival season, “Sound Of Mind” got the remix treatment. Raxon takes on his ambient cut “Exit Station” and churns it into a minimal stomper. We welcome one of our favourite producers of the moment, Japan’s Wata Igarashi and he doesn’t disappoint delivering his signature trance fuelled techno to album favourite “El Multiverse”….last, but not least, the legendary duo Extrawelt went so far as to create two distinctly different remixes of “Droid Solo”. One keeps the float and meander of the original track but with a four to the floor drive that’ll work in any peak time set. Their Radical Remix embellishes on the breaks and beats of the original for the deep space heads.

Extrawelt - Grindmaster EP
Stream & Buy - https://turborec.lnk.to/Grindmaster

You gotta sweat it up your entire life to earn the right to call your record Grindmaster. Whether you're pulling your life partner in real close and personal on your living room dance floor, or pursuing brain-dead entrepreneurship with every single fibre of your trust fund, The Grind remains an exacting Snake-God, riding humanity face-first into its eternal reward. 

To this end, everyone at Turbo is grateful beyond words that venerable veteran’s veterans Extrawelt are bringing the full bore of their two decades’ experience to bear on this slice of genre-defiling excellence. The German due open with the thorax-pummeling EBM of the title track, followed up by the angry electro of “Angry Elektro.” And if you think the EP lets up from there, keep listening to find out just how wrong what you think is, because the next track is called “Angry Halibut” and sounds exactly what you’re terrified that sounds like. Grindmaster culminates with the goalie-on-acid-fantasy acid banger “Save City” and bottomless warehouse trip-soundtrack “Flunk.” 

Those of you who choose not to support your local record store will be rewarded accordingly, as Extrawelt’s own “Drop Outs in Heaven Remix” of “Flunk” is yours as a digital exclusive. We have no real problem with vinyl lovers but they should probably come to terms with the fact that digital music - and by extension, digital exclusives - is perhaps the defining trend of 2024. You probably know someone with a computer, so maybe they can help you out.
