Baly - Tech Dailey
Fractious - Known Expression
Sean Cunningham - Lock 909
Lattenheim - Chroma


Four different artists, four brand-new Ace Trax added to the series. Kicking things off is Slovenian talent Baly with his super-fat techno funk bomb, Tech Dailey. Next up is Fractious, delivering a no-nonsense stab-driven track that hits hard. Then we have Sean Cunningham, making his SWAY debut and giving us a taste of what’s to come, his full EP. And finally, Sascha Milde returns under his alias Lattenheim, taking us back to the early days of techno, but with a fresh, modern twist.  

Once again, four massive tracks, or as we like to call them, Ace Trax!

Ace Trax Volume 5

Ace Trax Volume 5 - SWAY 71

RAW WORX returns with a relentless new outing from German producer BR!NK (Evilgroove Records, Safe Space, Synergie), who delivers the Slope EP - a bold exploration of hypnotic repetition and stripped-back, high-impact techno.

This release is built for the purists: rolling low-end, gritty textures, and mind-bending loops that lock in and don't let go. From the pulsing tension of the title track to the deep, mechanic flow of the other weapons, BR!NK captures the essence of late-night warehouse energy.

Duncan Hiddink joins the EP for a sound assault with his debut into the techno world with the collab 'Edgy Siren' and Label boss Fractious (SWAY/KD RAW/Unrilis) steps in on remix duty, reworking Slope into a driving, percussive peak-time weapon - fusing raw power with surgical precision.

Another heavyweight addition to the RAW WORX catalogue - essential for those pushing the darker edges of the techno spectrum.

Label feedback & support comes from Truncate, Drumcomplex, Pan-Pot, Ramon Tapia, Len Faki, Anthony Pappa, Anja Schneider, Slam, Balthazar & JackRock, Cristian Varela, Kaiserdisco, Hollen, Paco Osuna, Simina Grigoriu, Markantonio, Mauro Picotto, Sinisa Tamamovic, John Selway, Ignacio Arfeli, DJ Boris, Irregular Synth, Stiv Hey, Kaiser Souzia, Stacey Pullen, Electric Rescue, Steve Sai, Sisko Electrofanatik and many more

UK based Fractious (Stephen Garrett) has firmly fitted himself into the international techno community over the last few years, providing his own unique blend of groove based techno.  Having caught the attention of Christian Smith, he immediately signed him to his powerhouse label Tronic and a few months after selected for the annual Tronic Allstars VA.  Kevin Saunderson followed suit signing Fractious to his KMS Records, Victor Calderone for his Matter label, DJ Boris for his Transmit Recordings and lately Kaiserdisco for their KD RAW label.  

The success of these signings can be seen by the support from Ramon Tapia, Karotte, Slam, Paco Osuna, Markantonio, Mr. C, Pan-Pot, Just Be, Axel Karakasis, Kaiserdisco, Paco Osuna and Richie Hawtin having played his collaboration with Irregular Synth at the Enter closing party in Space and for a continued 6 months.  Next came Stacey Pullen charting a Fractious remix rocketing it into the Beatport Techno Top 100 and more regular plays from Richie Hawtin, from all over the globe, not only of his Fractious productions but also artists signed to his label Dynamo Recordings (co-owned with Ronan Teague - Decoy, Naked Lunch, Binary404). One track as such from Dynamo was used in an Official Minus Tour Video and was the first track in Richie Hawtin's BBC Radio One Essential Mix recorded live from Enter @ Space, Ibiza.

Fractious can be regularly found on other well-established labels such as Trapez, Waveform Recordings, Matter, MKT, Funk'n Deep, Loose Records, Gem Records, Pornographic, Night Light to name a few.

Fractious is in high demand when it comes to being remixed, with people such as Mr. C, Secret Cinema, ROD, Luigi Madonna, Frankyeffe, Steve Mulder, Richie Santana, Danilo Vigorito, Remy Unger, Petter B, Mars Bill, Matt Minimal, Dani Sbert, The Yellowheads, Alen Milivojevic, M. Fukuda, Peter Bailey, Etai Terazi all jumping at remix requests and always being approached by big labels and podcast sites.

Fractious is kept busy in the studio and as a testament to this his gig calendar is rarely empty with bookings around the globe, having just returned from a tour of Norway, Las Vegas and with his new formed close relationship with London based MiSFiT promoters, you can find him playing regularly in London's top underground clubs and releasing on their fresh new record label M!SF!T!!
