Abdulla Rashim & Axel Hallqvist - Sorunda (Semantica 58)

Scope Recordings closes 2013 with a staple release by label head Andrei Morant.  His single Falling Down is nothing short of black tie techno:  timeless and ingeniously simple.

The title track begins with a straightforward introduction that unexpectedly veers into a chromatic descent.  A sturdy bassline guides harmonizing stabs that tiptoe out of sight and back again.  Falling Down is effectual vintage.  

The B-side, Companion, has keys echoing off one another while castanets, claps, and ghostly conversation season an unwavering low end.  The track is inherently versatile and can lend an edge to a deeper set, or add complexity to a basic foundation. Due out mid-december

With Formula 3 SCI+TEC revisits our hugely popular V/A series and a collection that has already introduced you to many of the labels brightest and rising talents. Our latest five track instalment mixes youth and experience as we welcome new and established artists, four of which make their SCI+TEC debut.

First of the new school and opening Formula 3 is HUGE with 'Silicon'. Raw house beats, rasping hats and metallic stabs that slice through like butter make up this grooving opener. Charismatic French producer Florian Gasperini delivers our next component in the form of 'Sunday 2pm'. A deeper tech affair, its the perfect soundtrack to those afternoon terrace moments.

Active Line Six take us for a ride on their 'Roller Coaster' with rippling bass and snapping snares, the understated groover is a great introduction to the SCI+TEC newbies. Israel's Itamar Sagi steps aboard with the weighty and throbbing vocal number 'Hipster', before label regular Refraction closes this winning formula with the pumping drive of 'Mayans'.

TEC5EP - 5 - REFRACTION - MAYANS

As Figure begins to move into the next chapter of its label history, label founder Len Faki has teamed up with young French talent Roman Poncet for the 54th release. Poncet's debut on the label dropped last year with the excellent 'Cerate' cutting a clear path for his precisely executed modern techno sound. 

Teaming up in the studio, Faki and Poncet have crafted 'Asua' - a mesmerising display of production skill and a testament to the duo's true understanding of hypnosis. Pushing from the start with its urgent bassline the track builds and morphs its intertwining elements, introducing subtle textures and suggestions of melody - a classic Figure late night ritual. 

Alongside, we have original tracks from both Len Faki and Roman themselves. Faki's thunderous and aptly titled 'Stripped' works his powerhouse percussion along with a textured dub-stab in this straight up club trip. 

Finally with 'Truck' Roman Poncet completes the EP, his rough synth stabs and metallic percussion driving this moody tension builder ever forward.

No doubt about it, HypeLTD are on a bit of a roll at the moment; recent releases from the likes of JoeFarr, The Analogue Cops and Marco Bernardi have helped shape the Hypercolour sub-label into a consistent purveyor of raw and rootsy techno music.

On the ‘Split’ EP, various artists are assembled to flex their prowess, namely Warlock, Zoé Zoe & Enoah Ballard and Samuel Thalmann.

Opening up the EP is Warlock, the driving force behind London’s Rag & Bone label.  This seasoned British breaks and electro producer offers up ‘Sawhorses’, a weighty 909 kick and incessant, filtering stabs give this an air of familiarity, Berlin in sound, Detroit in spirit perhaps, but a straight up club cut for certain.  A proper jacker, and an ace reverse edit right on the end!

Lithuanian brothers, Zoé Zoe & Enoah Ballard, team up for the ‘1234’.  Zoé Zoe has been behind previous releases on Planet Mu and Sneaker Social Club, and joins his sibling on this dark and ravey breakbeat driven track.  The kind of cut that separates the wheat from the chaff come closing time at your local discothèque, ‘1234’ is both eerie, cosmic and flat out deep all at once.  

Closing this ‘Split’ EP is Samuel Thalmann AKA Okain, a man behind an incredible musical CV, including music for Tsuba, BPitch, Memento, Four:Twenty and many more.  Samuel offers up ‘Not Anymore’ under his birth name, a blinding 909 drum workout with some freaky Chi-town modulations goin on.  Almost like a perfect accompaniment to Warlock’s ‘Sawhorses’, this is simple yet effective dance track that’ll have ‘em jackin and pumping their fists til dawn.

Samuel Thalmann - Not Anymore (clip)

Tim has been at the very forefront of the UK underground scene over the past 5 years. His off kilter grooves and ever-evolving house and techno sound has seen him release with the likes of Cocoon, Get Physical & Dirtybird. In 2013 Tim launched his first ever live show at the esteemed London Festival SW4 which proved Green to be a dexterous performer with plenty to say for himself, as does this new EP. 

The lead track, ‘Helpless Sun' is typical of Tim's need to always surprise the listener, the track constantly evolves and changes in effortless fashion. Starting with lush guitar licks and atmospherics and quickly moving to growling baselines, broken beats, a humungous breakdown, 4/4 and to top it off an amazing vocal from the highly talented new vocalist Hayley Hutchinson. This is the kind of track 99% of producers out there wish they could make. The result is stunningly epic. Ryan Crosson is at the heart of contemporary techno as part of the Visionquest collective. The first of his two remixes totally deconstructs the original into a swelling and driving dance floor monster with plenty of tripped out vibes. 

The second, an ambient mix, does exactly what it says on the tin – it’s a celestial affair that suspends you in mid air as synth patterns unfold and indecipherable vocals ebb and flow at the core of it all. Rounding off the package, Tim's second original on the EP ‘Seti’, a lush and beautiful deep techno track with glowing harmonies and bright neon synths. A track that seems simple at first but on more listens proves to be as intricate and textured as its A side, constantly evolving throughout the build and crescendo's. This is another outstanding offering from Mr. Green. As ever this is a forward thinking package from MFR that proves Tim Green to be one of the finest craftsmen of the day.

Arturo Contreras - All My Best Days (Original Mix)SNIPPET

he latest release to drop on the Saved Records imprint is a two track EP titled 'Perception’ from Oxia. A label long established as being at the forefront of underground dance music, Saved Records continues to source talent from across the globe, this time drawing on the French house pioneer for this most recent offering, due out on the 19th May. 

Oxia’s career spans over a decade and has seen releases on a plethora of electronic music’s most notable labels. His early musical influences reflect a large spectrum of music styles including electro-funk, italo-disco, new-wave and early remnants of the Chicago house scene. Fast forward to present, Oxia’s two track EP for Saved shows clearly how he masters the house and techno crossover and demonstrates how after so many years in the game, Oxia is still at the forefront of the international electronic scene, relying on deep melodic grooves as the key element in his production.

Saved Records has wasted no time in building a reputation as leaders in world class house and techno and is now a well respected and hugely admired independent label. Alongside label founder Nic Fanciulli, artists who have released on the label include Joris Voorn, Adam Beyer, The Martinez Brothers, Mark Fanciulli and Rolando amongst many others.

Whether it be his house or techno output Bailey is one of Europes most bankable and celebrated artists having released on a myriad of labels since the early nineties, which makes him a perfect choice for Christian Smiths Tronic imprint.

In Congonhas we see Bailey in typical form; bombastic, bolshi and determined to squeeze the maximum out of every element of his track. From the steady, filtered and dub referencing stab hits to the rolling bass and breathtakingly colossal builds Congonhas is a dead cert as one of this summers true dancefloor bombs.

That said, its b-side cohort, Upgrade, is no shrinking violet either. Slower in pace and less incessant than Congonhas but with a lurching bottom heavy funk and cleverly restrained drops, its a superb alternative which broadens the package appeal even further.
