Egbert, Secret Cinema - Vortex (Original Mix)

Shaun Moses - Dreams Of Reality (Original Mix) [Gem Records]

Our 75th release is upon us as RSRRCT returns to Gem with his follow up EP, titled ‘Riddles in The Sand’. 

Kicking things off, ‘Riddles In The Sand’ pulsates with a tight groove and a beautifully executed combination of rhythms. Following course, a dark vocal appears alongside a distorted arp which lead the track into a deep and powerful rapture. Next up, ‘Reality’ takes us on a hypnotic trip with progressive synth work, giving it an open air feel. The vocal helps carry the track through to a breakbeat-esk break-down, before reaching its peak with a powerful bass which explodes straight back into stripped groovy goodness, and shows us once again why RSSRCT is once again the one to watch.

Gem Records have a big phat release lined up with new kid on the block Enrico Sangiuliano! A proper high quality techno release to end 2013 with a bang…


Enrico Sangiuliano has been on the Italian scene since 2003. Over the years he managed to work his way up through the ranks performing at Italy’s largest stages and hosting his own club night ‘TECH’. Many of his own unreleased tracks became club hits through his own performances. In recent years he has started putting his releases out into the international techno scene with releases on Alchemy, Octopus and Truesoul to name a few. So what can you expect from his release on Gem? 

The EP is a double A-side with two amazing tracks. First up is Groove Mission which combines a powerful pumping groove with industrial noises and percussion echoing through a huge reverb. The track is simply dripping with excellent production skills. Thumping bass and crisp highs manage to leave room to make this big room techno sound warm and cosy.  

Next up is Stone Cock which according to Sangiuliano refers to ‘a huge stone monolith he imagines rising up from earth into space’. The track definitely sounds like it came from another planet with a repetitive bleep as the main feature of the track and trippy laughter in the break. Again a powerful groove drives the track and menacing sounds are expertly wrapped over the top. Scary shit!

Enrico Sangiuliano’s Groove Mission EP will hit stores December 23rd 2013.

Egbert, Metodi Hristov - Connect (Michael Klein Remix)

Making his debut into the world of techno, the crazy-haired Dutch rave enthusiast, Thimo Konings has joined the Gem family with a massive 2-track EP titled ‘On The Wire’. The leading track wastes no time by immediately sending the listener down a path of no return. ‘On The Wire’ expresses itself with relentless power, which is accompanied by delayed foley and creates space within itself to make it smash on any dancefloor. Next up, we have ‘Sturm’, which can quickly be summed up as the dark horse of the release. ‘Sturm’ encompasses everything that the perfect hypnotic techno banger needs, and it never shies away from pulling you deeper and deeper into the abyss.

The Reason Y makes his return to Gem Records with an electrifying 2 track EP titled 'Blitzeis'. The leading track immediately sends you down a path of dark, rolling grooves, which remains true to the Gem sound. The Southern follows suit with his 'jacking' take on 'Blitzeis', perfectly executing a high energy, tribal-esk banger. Closing things off, The Reason Y introduces us to the aptly named 'Wrecking Ball'. This monster of a track is all about that late night feeling, encompassing everything every core raver desires.

GEM002 A1 Peter Horrevorts - Bloody Hands

After just over a year of strictly remixes, Egbert returns with his first EP after his critically acclaimed album ‘Warm’. ‘Shake’ is a dancefloor EP with three unforgivingly powerful originals.

The release date, Jan 16th, also sees Egbert performing a 6 hour live set together with Secret Cinema @ Melkweg, AMsterdam.

2014 Was a year with many highs for Egbert. With a whopping 4 gigs at Awakenings including both days of the festival, rocking the Cave at Timewarp NL before Sven Väth, Electric Brixton in London, Flex Club Vienna, Sziget Festival and loads more amazing gigs with thousands of people going mental to his live act. 

For 2015 there are a string of strong EP’s lined up kicking off with ‘Shake’ on Gem Records. As Egbert spends most of his time playing live sets with 100% Egbert tracks around the globe, he knows exactly which ones pack the most punch. Label boss Secret Cinema who plays epic sets together with Egbert regularly, sat down and selected three of those tracks for this EP.

The record kicks off with ‘Dik Geluid’ which translates into ‘phat sound’. A stripped down repetitive  techno bomb with a hard kick and a throbbing bass effect as its main elements accompanied by spacey noises and lo-fi vocal samples that funk and echo over the top. Next up is ‘Shake’ which revolves around a bassline on every 16th note triplet that swings over the beat in a way that gives the track loads of energy and danceability. Filters are opened and decays lengthened until the bassline growls and roars with energy building up and up.   Finally there is ‘Korrelig’ which is probably one of the darkest tracks from Egbert’s sets. With scary horror movie vocals, huge delays, and a main noise that sounds evil to its core this is one bad-ass cut…

Gem Records boss Secret Cinema and rising star Enrico Sangiuliano are coming together for an epic collaboration. They kicked off with ‘Trrbulence’ on Drumcode which is currently taking the charts by storm and will follow up with a full EP on Gem Records.

Their Gem Records EP consists of two A-sides. First up is ‘Alone with the bitch’  which is pure techno with dark synths and sound effects and an irresistible extremely danceable funk to it. ‘The feeling of being in this place’ is a beautiful melodic track that hypnotizes, captures and drives. An essential package, impeccably produced…

Enrico Sangiuliano & Secret Cinema - Alone With The Bitch | preview | July 13th |

After a year of big remixes for the likes of Secret Cinema, Carl Cox, Marc Romboy, Funk D’void, 
Guy J and many more, Egbert van der Gugten is finally back with a full EP. A year of touring and performing his live set for crowds across the globe has developed his sort after sound to higher state of awesomeness! The result is a tree track EP of some of the most danceable funk filled techno available at the moment... 

Vrijheid brings the driving melodic sound we have come to love from van der Gugten, Groovegg and Dieper present the housier side of the Eg sound spectrum. This is yet another Gem Records EP on the cutting edge of main room techno . Be sure to check the latest Egbert cut out!!

Egbert - Vrijheid | Gem Records | Out Now!

Next up on Gem Records is the Christian Smith & Wehbba remix of Point Blank AKA Secret Cinema - Meng’s Theme which served as inspiration for Adam Beyer to start making techno back in ‘94. The re-release is part of the SILVER project celebrating Secret Cinema’s 25 years in music and comes with a brand new remix by Christian Smith & Wehbba. The EP is ready to hit digital stores on August 19th. A total of nine Secret Cinema classics will be re-released with remixes both digital and vinyl as part of the box set SILVER.


Point Blank AKA Secret Cinema - Meng's Theme (Christian Smith & Wehbba Remix)

Secret Cinema has been busy in the studio, experimenting with new sounds, ideas and inspirations. Séance EP is the first result. The lead track is a highlight in Secret Cinema’s sets, and after giving an early demo to Adam Beyer, it has been hammered in many sets by the Swedish Drumcode label boss.

Jon Rundell shares our opinion that Secret Cinema has genuinely found a fresh sound: "Ex Drummer is very nice, slightly different to everything else that's out there largely, which I'm all for!"

PREMIERE: Secret Cinema - Ex-Drummer | Aug 11 on Gem Records

Ooooooh yeeeaaah!!! Haasten is here! One of techno’s fastest rising stars brings his strongest EP to date with two huge tracks you will be hearing a  lot of this summer! Egbert returns to Gem...

‘Haasten’ (translates into hurrying) has been destroying crowds during Egbert’s live sets around the globe for the past few months. A dark commanding bass line that skips over the beat is accompanied by a retro sounding orchestral jab to create what is looking to become one of this year’s biggest techno tracks!

The B-side ‘Yourself’ has also proven to be a crowd pleaser and is paving the way for the future of percussion based techno. The punishing drums, deep basses, narrow mids and rattling hats kick ass throughout the track before taking a break for 30 seconds to introduce some melody and continue on mercilessly afterwards. 

A mean f*cking package!


GEM004 A1 Egbert - Haasten

In December 2009, Gem Records was born when it released GEM001 ‘Egbert – Dezelfde Weg’. Nine years later, Egbert graces the label with its 60th release.  

Fractals EP is a double A-side with ‘Fractals’ representing Egbert’s pumping dancefloor techno and ‘Zachtaardig’ his signature melodic sound.

Secret Cinema’s Gem Records return with two ice cold cuts by Serbian born, Berlin based, Patent Skillz label boss: DJ Lion. 

DJ Lion is a pioneer of techno in his native Serbia. He rose to fame with Richie Hawtin supporting his every release. He is an audio engineer and teacher and that reflects in his music. His Gem Records EP has a futuristic approach to dynamics with synths sticking out above mix, giving those raw sounds the energy in the mix instead of the usual kick drum. The two track EP has been a highlight in Secret Cinema’s sets for the past months with crowds going crazy for it. 

With Gem Records set to release EPs by Ramon Tapia, SQL, Transcode and Christopher Kah over the next few months, these are heady times for a label that continues to be rewarded for its consistent and innovative approach to contemporary electronic music.

Dj Lion - Tasmanian Devil

Ramon Tapia has been killing it with dancefloor shaking EP’s coming out left and right on Octopus, Elevate, his own Say What and now Gem Records. Both cuts on the Yellow Screen EP are peak time techno A-sides.  Strong support from Adam Beyer, Alan Fitzpatrick, Karotte, Pan-Pot. 

The Belgian based artist has championed a variety of genres, all tied together by the irresistible funk that keeps his audience in a hypnotic state of movement. Yellow Screen EP consists of the title track which combines a Born Slippy style kick drum echo with rattling highs and an eerie main synth line. AA-side Exposure features a nasty saw tooth theme over a relentless rolling techno banger with Beyer and Cox written all over it. Hitting all stores on April 19.   

With Gem Records set to release EPs by Egbert, Transcode, VNTM and Christopher Kah over the next few months, these are heady times for a label that continues to be rewarded for its consistent and innovative approach to contemporary electronic music.

Oliver Lieb - Artemis

Roger Martinez kicks off 2013 with yet another EP that blew us away here at Gem headquarters. His previous EP ‘Die Magische Tijd’ was one of the peoples favorites of 2012 and the title track is followed up on the Eschaton EP with ‘De Machtige Trip’. Another beautiful melodic techno voyage that we have come to love from this exciting artist. ‘Eschaton’ and ‘Kracht’ are both extremely powerful high quality dance floor destroyers.

All three tracks on this EP have been big crowd pleasers during Martinez’ live performance which was one of the highlights of Amsterdam Dance Event 2012.
