Soma's French wonder kid returns as we build toward his debut album in 2016 with a ferocious rave inspired opening to the year in 'Frozen Room'. Charles has been busy in the studio and begins to show what we can expect from his first full length later in the year. Recent Soma contributor, Christian Wünsch, steps up with a fantastic remix of the title track also.

Envoy | Dark Manoeuvres Soma25 Remixes  - [SOMA474D] 

1.	Dark Manoeuvres (@Daxj Remix)
2.	Dark Manoeuvres (@norman-nodge Dub)
3.	Dark Manoeuvres (@shdw-music & @utobscure0010 Remix)
4.	Dark Manoeuvres (@Tensal Remix)

Soma proudly present the first in an exciting series of releases to celebrate 25 years at the top of electronic music as we turn to some of our favourite modern artists to reinvent some of the best from the back catalogue and up first is Envoy’s timeless classic, Dark Manoeuvres. Originally released as part of the “Coalition EP’ in 1996 (which also featured the classic Seawall), Hope Grant’s instantly recognisable hit is still found in nearly every Techno DJs record box and has continually served as a beacon of Soma since it’s release Four new versions are served up here as Dax J, Norman Nodge, Obscure Shape & SHDW plus Tensal all deliver fine interpretations of this Soma classic.

Dax’s furious style is the opener as he uses the original chords as they were intended but all the time firing his concussive drum patterns directly to the dance floor. Ostgut Ton’s Norman Nodge turns in a delectable dub version in only the way he can by keeping Envoy’s original muted and delivering a subtle, introverted version. The duo of Obscure Shape & SHDW are next up and delivery one epic take on Dark Manoeuvres. The pair build the tension early, teasing the strings then unleashing an onslaught, adding their own beautifully led, string section before hammering home. PoleGroup’s Tensal closes out our first Soma 25 releases, twisting and cutting the hook to suits his means as thunderous beats work away behind this solid tool.

With much more on the horizon, Soma has their gaze fixed firmly on the future of Techno

Regal lands once again in his very own etiquette with a powerful statement: >Still Raving<. A taste of his sound in a very particular way. one of his most personal records until date. Techno with trance. rave and acid influences that converge in the four tracks that give shape to this EP. A solid proof of music being bigger than words.

Artist: Inland
Title: Time Leak 
Cat No: FIGUREX05
Format: 12" vinyl + digital
Release: March 18, 2019
Artwork by: Louis Ardine

After having appeared twice on the Figure SPC series, Inland (aka Ed Davenport / @counterchange-inland) now arrives on Figure, providing a trio of well-honed, first-grade club-material. 

Out the gate comes 'Stainless’ - an electrifying piece of machine-power which, already bursting with energy, still manages to turn it up a few notches. 

Next up, the seasoned producer turns in a powerful chord-rooted tool: 'Swerv' is driven by tides of shimmering beauty along a sea of pounding drums. One to behold is the epic B-side, which amounts to a trance-inducing, enveloping synthetic vortex of sound. A long journey that is deeply rewarding, and for buyers of the digital release even comes as a ‚crystalised‘ bonus-version.

Slam rework Nitzer Ebb Nitzer Ebb, Silent Breed, DK8, Terrance Fixmer and more for the final instalment of their Archive Edit series

Soma label heads Slam curate a specially designed package of tracks to finalise their Archive Edit project that sees them delve deep into Techno’s past to bring some of the genre’s best tracks into the modern age. The Archive Edit project started as a way for Slam to showcase and share the many different edits that had made their way into their DJ sets over the last few years. The pairing of Stuart McMillan & Orde Meikle have both raided their extensive collections, picking out tracks that have defined countless sets over their career. Tracks from luminaries such as Nitzer Ebb, Thomas P Heckmann (as Silent Breed), Damon Wild & Terrence Fixmer have been re-edited alongside some of Slam’s own unreleased material, showcasing the duo’s current sound; one that constantly naturally evolves, matures and demonstrates why the duo have been at the forefront of the global scene since its inception.

“We resurrect nine cuts from our archive collective collections for your listening and spinning pleasure. Some are original material, some are live re-edits, some are well-known, others are not! They all have one thing in common, they all attempt to unashamedly destroy dancefloors, and thus featured heavily, (usually toward the end of our DJ sets) in the last year or so well known”. Now we share them with you!"

Slam open the album with an absolute monster track in the form of their rework of the legendary Nitzer Ebb’s ‘Join In The Chant’. The anthemic EBM/post-punk infused original is given a thrashing overhaul from the duo marking one of the standout tracks of this collection.  A special live rework of fan favourite ‘Scorpion’ drops before the previously unreleased ‘Memoriam’ delivers on a more emotive tip. Firing back into the edits is Thomas P Heckmann’s seminal ‘Sync In’, under his Silent Breed Moniker which is a fast-paced, Neo-Trance affair Slam then drop the manic ‘1001’ which takes the BPM stratospheric. DK8’s, Murder Was The Bass is up next and given a 2019 update as the duo's edit snatches up all the most perfect elements of the track leading nicely into a rework of French EBM legend Terence Fixmer’s ‘Body Pressure’ - driving through with its twisted beats and vocals. Another special live edit of the first Archive Edit release, Damon Wild’s Rotary makes an appearance as the album closes out with the rave infected, rework of the Hertz classic ‘Recreate’
