funk assault

We’ve got another funk soaked techno groove to round off a solid week of new music on Four Four. Chlär steps up to remix Alec Dienaar on Deadline Records, and the Swiss groove maestro is once again proving that he is one of the most clinical and prolific techno producers on the planet right now.

Deadline Records present their first EP as a label following, a strong debut VA with tracks from The Chronics, Nicolas Volger, Specific Objects and more. The first EP ‘Perpetual Groove’ comes from Alec Dienaar, a fresh new name in the techno scene.

Alec is a young talented producer and DJ based in Utrecht, the Netherlands. His unique style can be described as groovy, funky with an old school touch. You can hear his passion through out his sound as he likes to sample old tracks turning it into a new track. His inspiration comes a lot from the late 90s and early 2000s.

With his groovy percussions, dirty basslines and unique chords, you will he is most definitely setting himself apart from the crowd. Also included are Remixes from Chlär, Hyden, Maxx Rossi and Versus.

Chlär‘s remix is just what you can expect from the Berlin based techno wizz kid. Chlär calls on thriving bass grooves, prickly chord stabs and rolling percussive rhythms. This is proper techno.

"Paces of Places" is an evocative exploration of the diverse rhythms that define various environments, intertwining physical, symbolic, and digital realms. This album delves into the intricate layers of pace, not just in terms of rhythm, but as a reflection of deeper societal and existential meanings. Each track on the album transports the listener to a unique locale, where the pace of life reveals profound truths about human existence, societal constructs, and the ever-evolving digital landscape.

The concept of pace is multifaceted within this album. It goes beyond mere tempo to encompass the emotional and symbolic resonance of each environment. Whether it’s the languid drift of forgotten dunes or the frenetic energy of virtual hideouts, the pace embodies the essence of these places, drawing listeners into a vivid auditory experience that stimulates both thought and feeling.

"Paces of Places" is a profound auditory journey that challenges listeners to reflect on the rhythms that shape their lives. Through its masterful blend of soundscapes and symbolic depth, the album offers a contemplative experience that resonates with the complexities of contemporary existence.

Glasgow-born Gary Beck is a primary figure in techno and has been for well over a decade. Dropping seminal underground classics and cultured full-lengths on an array of leading labels, as well as his own BEK Audio imprint, he has also led the way as a revered DJ as his legacy continues to build. Now, adding to his standout ‘Upside Criminal’ EP as well as his well-received track ‘Fold’ on the ‘Federation Of Rytm III’ VA, he returns with a record that has often featured in both his and Mutual Rytm boss SHDW’s sets, stepping out on the label’s Spectra series with a cut that has long been sought-after by those who know.

A spontaneous studio moment turned club weapon, the timeless ‘Hopper’ merges a syncopated disco bassline with subtle nods to funk and classic dancefloor energy. It’s one of those tracks that lingers in your head long after the night ends – a pure embodiment of Beck’s raw energy and production finesse built on an infectious groove full of contrast and character.

Bulgarian synth wizard, hardware genius and tireless innovator KiNK delivered Spectra’s inaugural release, so he lands as the perfect person to remix. His first interpretation stays close to his roots with a house-leaning, slowed- down take that channels warmth and groove in equal measure. On the B2, however, he flips the script with a high-octane fusion of techno and UKG. It’s a peak-time anthem engineered to ignite dancefloors and closes out a standout EP with the third release in the Spectra catalogue.

In Soft Power, Funk Assault turns their surgical precision toward the invisible forces that shape modern life - control not through force, but through aesthetics, etiquette, and algorithms. Across five tightly woven tracks, the duo dissects how obedience is engineered through desire, conformity, and digital seduction.

From the sterile luxury of Aesthetics of Desire to the algorithmic exhibitionism of Like Me, Watch Me, and the chilling calm of Obedience Spa, this EP is a reflection on how control has evolved -smoother, quieter, but no less powerful. Soft Power invites listeners to dance, reflect, and perhaps notice the strings they didn’t know were there.

Funk Assault - Aesthetics of Desire [PI09]

With previous outings on Counter Intelligence, and Fanu's Lightless Recordings among others, DAK makes a welcome return with four tracks exploring the limits of drum and bass. From the spaced-out percussion of the title track, via high tech jazz fusion sounds all the way to the minimalism of 'Viimeiset Skunkit', DAK brings a highly unique style to the modern day drum & bass masses.
