CRUDE Premiere: Elise Massoni - Silk [XX LAB]

Yazzus follows up her appearance on the Tresor 30 compilation with a new EP named BLACK METROPOLIS. Within its, at times, rough-hewn textures lies a core that explores joy and energy within the roots of black techno. In her words: "I want this release to be black and beautiful, to be queer, and playful, a nostalgic nod to the 90s but also reimagining it in the current times."

The Ghana-born, London-bred, now Berlin-based producer's research into afro-futurism, envisaging a path forward for science, technology and culture through the black experience, has impressed a deep vision on this EP. Yazzus sets like a cartographer, using her tracks to explore a technologically advanced world, each representing different regions and environments.

Human Error Processor introduces an ear-worming percussion pattern nearly swamped by distorted bass drums and a vocal sample screwed just beyond recognition. Perforated leads with a 150bpm four to the floor stomp, infectious and supercharged. Gluey synth motions soak in an otherworldliness, where industrious, mechanical rhythms map out futurist structures in all directions.

Metro City Bay Area exhibits a ghettotech soul, lean and bouncy - this part of the galaxy is an infinite source of fun, with the heart of groove at its core. Three Deities brings adventurers of its region towards higher powers, its ravey synths and an engulfing bass provoke a complete NRG release, ascending into a spiritual trance where dense melodies bubble and fizz. Digital-only track United By Fate meddles busy vocal samples with searching melodies, a fitting end to the kaleidoscopic that is BLACK METROPOLIS.

In the ever-evolving landscape of techno music, few producers have recently carved out a niche as unique, fresh-yet-classic and compelling as @wtchcrft2. With his latest EP, "Wet Lung," due to be released on May 3rd via UMAY, the Brooklyn based producer continues to push the boundaries of what techno can be, while taking inspiration from classic and contemporary American Techno and House featuring fellow @dj-swisha on the remix side.

Anthony McLean, the man behind the moniker, has been making music since 2011, but it was during lockdown in 2020 that he made the decision to pivot from making trap, wave, and witch house to creating techno. The result is a sound that is both unmistakably his own and yet at the forefront of a rapidly changing genre, bound to New York’s re-emerging dance music scene creating constant new spaces for black and queer artists.

From the propulsive vocal driven lead single "Bagituh'' to the hypnotic pulse of "2 Myself", "Wet Lung'' is a masterful collection of five tracks that showcase WTCHCRFT's range and creativity. His rap roots and his love of vocal-driven hip hop blend seamlessly into his productions, creating a sound that is simultaneously raw, groovy and refined.  

But "Wet Lung" is more than just a collection of tracks. It is a statement of intent, a declaration that techno can be whatever we want it to be. With each new release, WTCHCRFT pushes the boundaries of what we think of as techno, and in doing so, he expands the possibilities of the genre further, from a new post-pandemic New York perspective in which creating spaces from the black communities becomes increasingly challenged by the growing gentrification of former black dominated neighborhoods. 

As we look ahead to the future of these communities, we can't help but feel extremely excited by what WTCHCRFT has in store for us. "Wet Lung" is a bold and visionary statement, from this emerging NYC scene and lines into an array of groundbreaking releases from fellow American artists hailing from the city, redefining its sound and breaking conventional influences from Europe.

"Wet Lung" will be available on all major digital platforms on May 3rd. The single ”Bagituh” is out now!

Entre Ghetto Techno, Electro et Footwork, la DJ Swooh détient l'alliance parfaite pour faire frétiller l'ensemble de nos muscles et de nos synapses. L’artiste Swooh ne s’arrête pas seulement au mix puisqu'elle produit également des tracks et vient de lancer son label «  Purple Records ».
Pour ce 34ème podcast Tecnhopol Mix, Swooh s’est relevé le défi de nous proposer quelque chose d’unique en son genre ! La sélection des tracks sont, pour certains, plus minimalistes qu’à son habitude, avec beaucoup de drums, de percussions et de vocales.
