OVERVIEW:
We often forget that techno artists are some of the most knowledgeable and passionate music enthusiasts. Luckily we are forced to a shift in perception when an album comes out, when all the ideas and intentions that do not fit a format push the producer to embrace something new and consequently showcase some of the most interesting electronic music out there. It’s a narrative that can be applied to many of the producers that are currently pushing techno toward more experimental grounds… a group Samuli Kemppi certainly belongs to. Growing up in Helsinki, Finland and discovering the Detroit sound in the late 80s, Kemppi has consistently contributed to the advancement of techno for the past decade, sometimes as dj and promoter, but mostly as producer. Unafraid to experiment with all sorts of subsets within the realm of techno, his records have been released by a diverse range of labels (among which we find Prologue, Mote-Evolver and Perc Trax) but it’s with M_Rec Ltd. that the artist is set to release his debut album.

“The Observer Effect” is a brainy and challenging record. Recorded exclusively with gear, with all tracks arranged live, its tracks are pure explorations of the process of writing electronic music. It’s all about perfecting the loop in real time, being in the moment without any digital memory to limit the potential. Forcing oneself to go back to the roots of the genre itself, basically writing a personal and heartfelt letter to its early pioneers. Although raw and unpolished, the results convey a very honest love for the essential nature of the genre and the emotional power of the electronic loop.
Obviously, Kemppi’s attitude and vision live strong through the album: working as an intro, “Particle Spray” is a crepuscular and haunting track that pierces deep. “Agitated”, “Locked” and “Power of Voltages” are conceptually ruthless techno experiments where the core of loops gets explored until a certain climax is extracted. “Water Lake” is unsettling dark ambient, standing before the second set of loop-heavy tracks. “Unsung Heroes” and “250 Days” are basically skeletons of instant rave classics you end up losing yourself into. With “Beneath The Surface” things get even darker and sparse. It’s basically harsh dub sounds working as dissociatives. “Wrong Turn” goes out to busted dance floors and is probably the friendliest of the tracks on the record. Rough on the surface, its groove is irresistible. Expect to see this exciting electro monster getting a lot of play. The last tryptic formed by “Tailgating”, “Passage” and “Never The Same” explore more hypnotic grounds. Slightly more fluid, with more melody at play, these tracks stay consistently sinister in their nature, concluding an album that is not afraid to stay personal.

"The planet doesn't need more successful people. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restores, storytellers and lovers of all kinds"

_ Asylum 

Wandering through the years, when we opened our eyes it seems that something has changed.
Suddenly we find ourselves lost in a depth encounter of classic and electronic music.
An alterated state in a slow transition, create new dimensions in bodies and minds. Time has stopped.
Asylum is born

Funk You quickly established itself through the Italian scene, since it formed as a djs and party promoters collective. Funk You is coming out with the first release signed by Dylan God brothers duo. 
The Ep is composed by two dancefloor masterpieces and a spacey long journey drone.

“It was fate,” she said. “Inevitable,” he replied. “Us meeting like this...” “...Against all the odds.” “I mean. We’re so different, you and I.” “Worlds apart,” he agreed. “It should never have worked.” “And yet, here we are.”
“In transition.” “In transit,” she quipped. “Always together, even when apart.” On that note he turned to her, all serious and sullen. “I want you to know this,’ he went on. “What we shared has forever changed me, and disrupted the world around us, for a while. I will wear your sweet-saline kiss eternal. All I ask...” He paused, hesitantly. “...Is that you take a little part of me with you too.”

Despite the watery divide between them, Brooklyn-bound Greg Schappert and London-based Tom Russell have fostered a production partnership as Donor / Truss for the last six years, emerging today as one of techno’s more robust and hardworking duos. As solo artists they’ve racked up notable releases between them on labels like Stroboscopic Artefacts, Perc Trax and Our Circula Sound, outside of Schappert’s own Miniscule imprint. Meanwhile Russell has been stepping out as the acid-charged MPIA3, lately flexing a ‘less is more’ approach with outings on Avian and R&S.
For Grey Series 05 they don the Donor / Truss moniker once again after a spell apart, proving themselves as accomplished and unpredictable as ever with the fully formed ‘Aber’. On the A-side swampy techno is bruised with house in “Spacial”, turning soupy on the sluggish and barely rippling “Beneath”. Fidgety “Ease” then does an about turn on the B-side before plunging headlong into swollen substrata stuff on the close.
