THE DOC MURDER TEAM part. 3 EXPECT EXPECTORANT  PROSPECT PROJECT

TRACKLIST:
Hektor Legion - Barbatos
Finalversion3 - El Filo del Agua
Favsto - The End of the World OST
Radio Transmission - IONO
Fase Bipolar - Chemistry & Confussion
CØRE - Serotonin

Gordo Trax presents A TOTA VIROLLA V.A, a varied compilation in which Hektor Legion, Finalversion3, Favsto, Radio Transmission, CØRE and Fase Bipolar perfectly define their sound concerns independently, creating a uniform and homogeneous ensemble but with room for surprise.

The album begins with Favsto's dystopian “The End of The World OST” which, with its breaks and epicness, puts us on alert from minute one. This exercise in originality serves as the perfect intro for Radio Transmission's “IONO” to hypnotically pick up the baton. Its bass sequence is accompanied by a dream pad that gently leads us to the metallic basses of "Chemistry & Confussion", signed by the duo Fase Bipolar, who with this song raise the intensity and take the listener to "Serotonin" by CORE. This is a dense track full of smoke and strobes with a bass that does not stop evolving becoming rough and rough. It is followed by “El Filo del Agua” by Finalversion3, which opts for an almost tribal rhythm, leaving the four on the floor and dressing the song with a branded robotic synthesizer. To close the EP we find “Barbatos”, an authentic burnt track in wich the producer Hektor Legion has distilled in his modular synthesizers in a crude and mechanical way, without mercy. I honestly don't know who the hell is going to read all this big toast and especially in English but the distributor forces us to put it, un saludo!

Finalversion3 - El Filo Del Agua

Tracklist:
Irazu - Relative Abstraction
Bøhm - Rotation Matrix
Joton ft. Develop Mind - Storm
Vrød - Arrstournai
H. Paul - Resuscitation

“I thought his memory was like the other memories of the dead that accumulate in every man’s life—a vague impress on the brain of shadows that had fallen on it in their swift and final passage; but before the high and ponderous door, between the tall houses of a street as still and decorous as a well-kept alley in a cemetery, I had a vision of him on the stretcher, opening his mouth voraciously, as if to devour all the earth with all its mankind. He lived then before me; he lived as much as he had ever lived—a shadow insatiable of splendid appearances, of frightful realities; a shadow darker than the shadow of the night, and draped nobly in the folds of a gorgeous eloquence. The vision seemed to enter the house with me—the stretcher, the phantom-bearers, the wild crowd of obedient worshippers, the gloom of the forests, the glitter of the reach between the murky bends, the beat of the drum, regular and muffled like the beating of a heart—the heart of a conquering darkness”.

Gordo Trax is back with the third edition of their various artists compilation, 'A Tota Virolla,' and it's safe to say that rarely do you come across so many standout names from the international underground scene all in one release. This compilation brings together producers from Spain, Mexico, Germany, and Italy in a perfect blend of styles, textures, rhythms, and atmospheres. 

From order to chaos, from hypnotism to shock, from groove to rawness, and from the club to the after-party without a pit stop at home. In this collaborative sonic endeavor, we find eight producers in their prime, distilling their sound to its purest form: unfiltered brilliance. 

Linear System, Oxygeno, RNGD, Ricardo Garduno, Irazu, Verschwender, Not a Headliner, and Giordano have crafted an album that will feel like the soundtrack at the gates of hell, while the condemned souls embrace their destiny: dancing on the brink of the abyss until judgment day.

Irazu - Motionless

Oxygeno - La Cara Que Esconde

Linear System - Tunneling

Tracklist:
01. Sueño Desvanecido
02. Renacer
03. Las Máquinas Del Olvido
04. Anhelo
05. Anhelo (Emotional Mix)

In a context where haste and instantaneity lead to any form of art, personal relationships, or cultural content becoming increasingly empty and devoid of care, craftsmanship, or patience, it is surprising that a Techno producer debuts after years of maturing their sound in the shadows, eventually distilling a mature album worthy of some of their influences.

In this "Renacer," we find a comprehensive exercise in hopeful dystopian Techno with a certain emotional charge that takes us on a winding journey from start to finish, where each of the tracks fits perfectly within a specific timeframe of the night.

Atisbo - Las Máquinas Del Olvido

In our tireless quest to discover the most original artists in contemporary Techno, we have come across producers like Comarca or Cosmic Anomaly, who have virtually debuted on our label, showcasing a spectacular talent for redefining the genre's boundaries. Now it's time for a unique artist based in Barcelona: YearsAstray, whose abstract sound, completely detached from formulas, is practically unclassifiable.

In this "Plástico y Asfalto", we will encounter brittle percussions, rough textures, vaporous sounds intertwined with random sequences, and sounds that speak to us, coming to life to snatch away our own.

As remixers, this extensive EP features one of the Spanish talents in Hypnotic Techno that is worth keeping an eye on for the future: Jala. Closing the album, Finalversion3 reimagines Grafit with their signature sound.

YearsAstray - Vapor [GTX013]

Swimming in deep and seemingly calm waters has turned into a kind of extreme sport in a music scene that keeps cranking up the BPMs and toughening its vibe. That's why stumbling upon EPs like the one Madrid-based producer Blovk is dropping on Gordo Trax with this "Quiescence" feels like a bit of a luxury.

From his studio, where cables snake into his modular synthesizers like injecting venom, Blovk crafts four original tracks that showcase an artist hitting his stride. It's a journey through a analog, metallic, and textural sonic landscape.

In this "Quiescence" EP, you'll find futuristic minimalism, warm and cyclical sequences resonating in an organic space, techno landscapes, and a hunger for what's to come.

Adding to the mix, there are remixes by Viels and Fase Bipolar. The Italian artist, a regular on Warm Up Recordings, serves up a beautifully rounded, ethereal remix. Meanwhile, the Fase Bipolar duo, based on Sungate Records, injects their characteristic robotic groove into a dancefloor-oriented remix.

Blovk - Observation (Fase Bipolar Remix) [GTX014]

There are artists who seem to be touched by a magical wand, displaying a supernatural talent for music at both an artistic and technical level from a very young age, and Schrzø is undoubtedly one of them. Despite his astonishing youth, this versatile producer stands as a cornerstone in the Valencia electronic scene. Not only is he an artist, but he also serves as a teacher of production, recording, mixing, and mastering, imparting his knowledge to dozens of students each year.

Schrzø has been integral to Gordo Trax since its inception, acting as the mastermind behind the majority of releases. Now, he finally makes his debut as an artist with an EP that impeccably defines his unique sound.

In "Ecuación del Movimiento," you'll encounter modular, robust, and detailed Techno, marked by its originality and a departure from conventional formulas. Schrzø elevates his music in a complex manner, crafting a distinctive sound that bears little resemblance to the forgettable, standard tools often heard in clubs. Each track embarks on a different adventure, steering clear of repetitions or shortcuts; it's a testament to pure talent and dedicated effort.

Alongside the five original tracks, we find the powerful remix by the Argentine Michel Lauriola, who arrives at Gordo Trax at the zenith of his career, delivering a dance floor bomb that adds another dimension to the EP.

Schrzø - Eterna Juventud [GTX015]

Through our Various Artists series "A Tota Virolla", some of the most captivating international artists are leaving their mark, contributing unique productions ready to shake tectonic plates and the Earth's crust.

In this fifth edition, we showcase internationally renowned artists making their debut on the label, such as Ribé, Pyramidal Decode, or Lidvall, alongside rising producers from our scene like RBNK or Cosmic Anomaly, and returning artists like Jala, Atisbo, and the collaboration between Finalversion3 & Hektor Legion.

We persist in our unwavering battle against the world, releasing Techno crafted to resonate with souls dancing in smoky basements as the first rays of dawn break. The significance of the artist's name is inconsequential; what matters is the quality and originality that permeate their music.

You're not dreaming: Oscar Mulero, Kaiser, CONCEPTUAL, Roll Dann, Vegim, Bøhm, Finalversion3, Irazu & Unkle Fon, and Atisbo & Schrzø all in the same Various Artists compilation in our GTX A TOTA VIROLLA Vol06 series.

We still don't know why... but some of the world's most talented producers have decided to participate in this V.A to create a robust, varied, powerful, dizzying, elegant, and far from passing fashion tracklist. Timeless techno with total devotion to the underground, to the dance floor, to clubbing, and to sensory experiences under the smoke and strobe lights.

In this compilation, you won't find a single filler track; each artist delivers impeccable production with an eye on the future of the genre, from the spatial abstraction of CONCEPTUAL to the hypnotic groove of Bøhm, the broken rhythms of Atisbo & Schrzø, the robotic synths of Finalversion3, the dystopian sequences of Irazu & Unkle Fon, the sobriety of Vegim, the luminous percussion of Roll Dann, and the dancefloor destroyer that maestro Oscar Mulero signs with that killer 909 and his sci-fi synth.

Do androids dream of electric sheep?

Possibly not. If they’re anything like us, they barely sleep at all.

Lucky for us, Linear System has concocted the perfect combination of tracks to soundtrack these midnight wormholes. 5 tracks that navigate the realms of dark, brooding Techno, aided by resonant textures, chirping foley and ultimately a cavernous groove administered with surgical precision.

This release wouldn’t be complete without @Atisbomusic take on “Permanent Marker”. Our young resident crafts a remix comprised of broken techno that sounds like plastic melting under the hot martian sun, with solvent fumes emanating in clouds of sonic swathe.

If, much like us, you’re on the lookout for music that feels like the walls are closing in on you, with every pulse rumbling through a building's foundations, GTX18 is for you, replicant.

Linear System - Permanent Marker (Atisbo Remix) [GTX018]

It’s extremely gratifying for us to see that we’re about to slate our 20th release on the label.

Born from a necessity for us to showcase the fantastic talent that has graced the booth at our parties, friends of the label, and incredible online acquaintances that we’ve made from the traction gained from our releases, G.O.R.D.A (Greatest Originals & Remixes Dropped Æver)
aims to pinpoint some of the essential tracks that define our labels first 10 releases, our ethos and sound.

This compilation materialises itself from our artists capability to craft well-defined, sophisticated Techno, equal parts heavy-hitting and elegant, some drenched in nebulised atmosphere, some gritty, broken, and carefully etched into walls of static noise.

It’s been a tough task for us to gather just 10 tracks from a slew of stellar EPs and VAs that have made us infinitely proud of the talent we are surrounded by. We are overwhelmed by all the great music we’ve been able to release and thank all the artists for their music, and all the supporters for keeping our music in circulation, and our projects ever growing.

If you’re new to Gordo Trax, we hope this can be a taster for our labels music and all the great artists who have made it, and we hope this can push you to explore the rest of our catalogue.

Many thanks from Gordo Trax.

FAVSTO - Roads [GTX001]

Our aim with this VA is to unite Valencian music makers, and those connected to our city, to raise funds for aid, rebuilding animal shelters, providing food and water to those cut off from supplies, offering clothing, and repairing homes in urgent need of help. https://gordotrax.bandcamp.com/album/germanor-va-valencia-relief-fundraiser-gtxvlc01

On October 29th, flash floods devastated much of the southern and western areas of the Valencia province, along with several other regions in Spain. This catastrophic event brought storm surges, collapsing bridges, and left thousands stranded on roads and streets, ultimately leading to a death toll that is now estimated in the hundreds and, tragically, still rising.

Homes, animal shelters, businesses, personal property, and families have all suffered immensely from this disaster—an event that caught thousands out on the streets, commuting to and from school, work, and daily life, with little to no warning. Severe alerts reached our phones 10 hours later, leading to even greater tragedy.

“Germanor,” our word for “brotherhood,” embodies the spirit of this compilation. We aim to reach out and support our city and those who have been far less fortunate than ourselves.

We are incredibly grateful to have such a diverse and talented community of music makers in the city, who have generously donated their work to aid in relief efforts. Our hearts go out to all those who have suffered loss.

For its first release, Gordo Trax presents Departure/Arrival by one of the label managers: @favsto. 3 Dub Techno influenced Techno cuts inspired by experiences of traveling, airports, and non-places, including a remix by @vndt.

Tracklist:
01. Departure
02. Roads
03. Arrival

Buy it on Bandcamp: bit.ly/GTX002-Bandcamp

Tracklist:
01. Horus
02. Panic
03. Stigmatized
04. Horus (Trømmel Remix)

Gordo Trax is back with Horus EP, a second reference by Augusto Taito, who has graced the last few years with his elegant sound, full of synthesis and distortion without sacrificing space and emotion. Horus' electric energy is transformed into confusion caused by the controlled chaos that Panic provokes, which ends up being diluted in Stigmatized, a melancholy-loaded track that its producer defines as violet. The Ep closes with a twisted Remix of Horus by Trømmel, which reconceptualizes the track around a new rhythm.

03. Augusto Taito - Stigmatized [GTX002]

Buy it on bit.ly/GTX003-Bandcamp

Gordo Trax presents its third reference through this EP coming from one of its label managers: @finalversion3. “Human CPU” is a techno EP full of robotic synthesis and dystopian howls in which a conversation between machines and humans takes place as a sonorous reflexion about the future of the species. The EP opens with a passage filled with uncertainty: “CPU Dialogue”. This track lays out a synthetic and metallic future in which humans are echoes of their own nature and crave to go back to their roots. In the process of transformation between machine and human, “Artificial Miscegenation “ is placed. This is track that shifts from robotic coldness to the warmth of human skin. To conclude the transmutation comes “Irrevocably human”, an erratic and bodily sob that continuously evolves and changes, reminding us of what we’ve always been. The “CPU Dialogue” remix from H. Paul ( @h-p ) redefines the track shaping it as a robotic monologue.

Finalversion3 - CPU Dialogue (H. Paul Remix) [GTX003]

Tracklist:
01. Dynamic Tension
02. Movement
03. Dynamic Tension (Irazu Blinded Mix Remix)
04. Dynamic Tension (Irazu Buried Remix)

In its primitive form, Techno exhales dynamism, tension and movement. These three concepts are so carefully reflected in Gordo Trax’s fourth reference, with two originals that go straight into the dance floor and two burning remixes signed by Irazu. Dynamic Tension lets go of all ornaments and focuses on an aggressive bassline splashed by sharp percussions and envolved by a thick layer of subterranean frequencies.
Movement softens out the tension and transforms it into hipnosis, with a bubbling, liquid bass that elevates us. Irazu takes the first cut to his terrain in a masterly fashion, making two different remixes filled with distortion and darkness.
