Markantonio returns to his label AnalyticTrail with a two-track techno release infused with dark atmosphere and swelling intensity.
One of Italy’s most iconic artists, Markantonio inspired a generation when he helped put the Naples techno scene on the map over two decades ago. In addition to playing DJ sets at clubs and festivals all over the world, he has also released music on many of the most influential record labels.
Recently he has featured on imprints such as Paco Osuna’s Mindshake, Spartaque's Codex and Ramon Tapia's Say What?, but he also has many classic tracks on labels ranging from Adam Beyer's Drumcode to UMEK's 1605.
This time he is back on his own label AnalyticTrail, which has been a regular outlet for Markantonio along with releasing music from other artists including Joseph Capriati, Wehbba and Luigi Madonna.
“Shout” opens the release with its rolling bassline and suspense building pads, while the pounding kick drum and rattling hi-hats provide a driving energy. Second on the EP comes the trippy melody of “The Light", which has a subtle euphoria underpinned by hard-hitting percussion.

Oliver Deutschmann is not only a regular DJ at Berghain and many other of the world's leading underground venues, he clearly spends a lot of time in the studio.

As a result, he's one of our scene's most prolific producers and can look back at a huge catalogue on labels like Mote Evolver, Hotflush and many more.

Oliver's also been a longtime friend of OFF Recordings, and now present his debut EP on our label.

The two originals are captivating pieces of minimalistic techno, stripped back drums meet memorable synth themes, to create two timeless pieces of quality techno.

With Opal and Jamaica Suk we have 2 of Berlin's most promising emerging DJ-producers on remix duties.

Opal is a regular not only in legendary clubs like Khidi and Griessmühle, but also recently released a killer EP on Regal's Involve Records.

Jamaica Suk is a resident at Berlin's infamous Pornceptual series, and plays all over europe and beyond, including some of the world's leading clubs and festivals like MELT, Tresor, and many others.

Both their remixes transform Plant Division into harder forms, perfect for the peaktimes.

Berlin-based Irish artist Hybrasil delivers a high-grade debut album on Radio Slave’s Rekids. Since moving to Berlin Hybrasil has been an avid buyer of records at Hardwax, going to modular workshops at the cult Schneidersladen, attending Superbooth and Berlin Atonal, Panorama Bar and Berghain, whilst releasing his big, arresting techno sounds on his own eponymous label. Alongside this he’s been spending time in the studio with Radio Slave, who played Hybrasil's ‘Hathor’ in Panorama Bar which kicked off a three-month burst of creativity that led to this album. As such, the album is very much a product of the artist's time in Berlin and was written for the Panorama Bar and Berghain sound system and all who attend its dance halls.

The album takes off with the smooth rolling techno of'Hathor'; that gets you on your toes, while 'Come Back'; soon ups the ante thanks to the way Hybrasil twists and turns his synths above the rooted kick drums. 'Ceres'; then has edgy sustained chords and thunderous claps that will sound mega in a cavernous warehouse space.

'Orpeheus'; is a masterclass in economical but effective techno, with well-crafted hi hats, rolling kicks and vocal stabs all driving it forward. 'Ursa Minor'; traps the listener in unresolved loops that keep a locked groove, until 'Messier'; mixes up seriously weighty bass-drum thuds and Jeff Mills style melodic minimalism. The compelling LP completes with 'Igigi'; and 'Vela', two more astral techno rollers with celestial synths and devastating drum programming.
