TECHNO

Receiving the baton from label head Stacey Pullen, Spain’s David Herrero steps up to the Blackflag plate to deliver a double-thick package of dancefloor crushing techno.
A standout favourite of Pullen’s in recent years, Herrero is an industrious beatsmith whose issued cuts on labels such as Defected, VIVa Music and Monza Ibiza Records and garnering the support of Loco Dice, Marco Carola and Richie Hawtin, along with the Detroit legend of course. It’s this sharp form that’s seen him play a succession of heavy-hitting gigs everywhere from Japan’s heady temple of techno, Womb, to Toronto’s iconic Footwork and Space in Miami. 

Over three tracks, his debut EP for Blackflag Recordings highlights his versatility as a producer and continues the label’s growing reputation for showcasing the rich vein of talent coming from Spain skilful techno Armada.

‘Maybe Someday’ kicks the release into gear with the kind of punchy, muscular techno that shakes with an cutting industrial vibe and is the kind of weapon you can imagine the masses loses their collective faculties to at Music On when the sun starts to seep into Amnesia’s famous terrace. 

Herrero approaches things from a different standpoint with ‘The Frogman’, the cut mixing up bouncy basslines in the intro that lead into the mother of all groove-driven techno workouts; relentless, hip-lashing and impossible to listen to without getting a case of twitchy dancefloor feet. 

Proving his sonic dexterity, ‘They Tell Me’ is the plump, drum-heavy roller crafted thick with tribal percussion and thick smoky atmosphere and makes the perfect compliment to its more up-tempo accomplices. 
“David Herrero is no stranger to our label because I personally love his sound and many of his tunes are in rotation in my sets. With so many new and young producers out nowadays, David's productions and tracks standout with his signature sound. Some melodic, some groovy, and some are just plain funky. I’m very pleased to welcome him to the label.” – Stacey Pullen

BFR013 - David Herrero - Maybe Someday

debut offering for Pullen’s Blackflag Recordings imprint ticks all the right boxes. 
The EP kicks into gear with the original mix of ‘Uh Oh’, a rolling groovy slice of techno funk that’s been injected with plenty of ounces of attitude to ensure the dancefloor is swerving on cue. The momentum is switched up courtesy of rising talents, the Cocodrills. The pair from Miami Beach have souped up Cowan’s original to craft a more driving re-rub, with a tasty bouncing bassline that’s combined with unexpected chops of melody and heavily crafted drums that propel the track forward with each bar. A peak-time bomb through and through.

Pan-Pot "The Mirror"

Naples-based newcomer DJ Dep provides the latest installment for Stacey Pullen’s Blackflag Recordings, with this irresistibly quirky EP that ticks all the right boxes and then some. Dense, barnstorming techno beats? Check. Epic crowd cheers? Check. Barnyard animals? Errr… check. For those who like their music a bit different, ‘Hummor’ is a cheeky number that breaths fresh air in a scene that can often be dogged by formulaic uniformity.

On the remix, Neverdogs take ‘Hummor’ subterranean with a deep dark excursion through the proverbial 6am dancefloor. Deep, dark, driving basslines are the order of the day, with brain-melting sonic artifacts scattered plentifully over an alluring tech-house groove.  

Rounding off on a high, DJ Dep brings the pulse back up again with ‘Strike In The School’, another meticulously programmed latticework of drums, bass, and unadulterated dancefloor decadence. Channeling everything from vintage gangster flicks to Homer Simpson, it’s impossible to sit through this without raising a smile at the very least.

Pan-Pot are back, this time with the Cells EP on their newly formed label, Second State. The new label sees Pan-Pot taking full creative control as they move into the second phase of their career, and both Cells and Third Eye are keen indicators that the pair are starting a new chapter of their sonic journey.

Third Eye was born out of Pan-Pot’s urge to create a track with a driving, hypnotic bassline. As a result, Third Eye makes its way into your head as listeners instantly get hooked on the bassline, but it’s not until the arp changes that things really start getting weird and fun.

The title track Cells was built around the synthline after it caught Pan-Pot right from the beginning. Similar to a cell starting in its simplest form and expanding, the track builds into a peak of full dynamic and volume and is packed with a variety of frequencies.

Ettica&#8217;s debut for Say What? kicks off with moody samples and rumbling bass, letting the laid-back vocal set the hazy tone while warped melodic fragments loop effortlessly in the background. The simple rhythm section provides the momentum as it shuffles along and grinds away into the night. 
 &#8220;Spank Box&#8221; gives a firm nod to the techier side of things, mainly due to the loopy percussion patterns and pulsating bassline. The vibe is more dubbed-out here and the mysterious breakdown acts as a welcomed breather to the tense atmosphere.

Eric Sneo&#8217;s hit &#8220;Metanoia&#8221; gets updated and first up is a beefed-up version with an assortment of effects and tasty synth action injected into it. Pig &amp; Dan have taken over for the remix, and opt for a completely different approach, employing intricate percussion and crackling highs into their shuffling groove. Focusing on the main theme, the boys bring out their loopy sensibilities and let the melody shine, courtesy of their sparse arrangement and subliminal bassline.

We are glad to welcome the mighty Sleeparchive to our family. The Berliner gives us two original tracks plus two remixes by label boss Oscar Mulero. 
"Window 057" is an arpeggiated tool made of a crazy synth sequence, shuffled hats and subtle kick drums in a constantly moving structure.
"Window 092" starts with a massive bass drum accompanied by synthetic bleeps and noises that soon are joined by repetitive sequences carrying the flow.
Oscar Mulero's remix for "Window 057" is a cleaner approach to the original, less shuffled on the rhythms but with a lot more movement on the arpeggiated synth lines.
The "Window 092" remake slows down the pressure on behalf of a more liquid approach on the drums, and is more reverberated and deep. Oscar adds more percussive elements and puts the bleeps away using the main sequence as the centre of the arrangement
