Long Live La Huaka Lima Peru Sasha Closing Party !

I fell in love with the track when I first Sasha play it last year. Absolutely phenomenal.

Welcome back Miyagi with his new single "Khan" featuring vocals by Haptic. The tune start's calm and reduced, sparkled with little synth bits before the unique and dark vocal by Haptic hit's in. Throughout the end the track opens up into a beautiful soundscape full of mesmerizing pads and effects. Darin Epsilon's take on "Khan" is more housy and functional with a warm synth hookline. Squire's remix is straight forward with a floating 16th arp line next to freaky modulated FX.

Michael Mayer albums don’t come round too often, which is one of many reasons why his fourth collection, The Floor Is Lava, is a genuine event. It’s been eight years since his last one, the collaborative & released on !K7; its predecessors, Mantasy (2012) and Touch (2004), took their sweet time, too. It’s no real surprise, given the many hats Mayer wears – globetrotting DJ, revered remixer, inveterate collaborator, and boss of both Kompakt and Imara – that his solo productions are relatively sparing. But this also speaks to their quality: Mayer’s name on a record sleeve is a sign of quality, of music that’s both looking to the future and calling back to the past, that balances the imperatives of the dancefloor and the loungeroom, that’s as exploratory as it is functional.

On The Floor Is Lava, Mayer seems to be taking the temperature of both the music that surrounds him (past and present), and the ideas of the industry he works within. There’s that iconic album title, for a start. “The album’s mindset,” he says, reflecting on those four words together. For Mayer, it’s partly a critique of the way the industry boxes in both producer and listener, focuses them on genre, on market, on the next new thing: “Being a free minded spirit that transcends genres has become an uphill battle.” A battle worth fighting, though, and with The Floor Is Lava, the result is an album that’s varied, quixotic, idiosyncratic, charming, and deeply, addictively listenable.

Throughout, Mayer finds thrills in exploration and juxtaposition, allowing unexpected things to blossom and giving them their life, their platform, throwing the listener exciting curveballs: “It’s a DJ album by a DJ that’s easily bored.” Either easily bored, or endlessly curious, The Floor Is Lava is rich with ideas. It opens with “The Problem”, which looks back to look forward, embracing the rickety way early house productions threw samples together with gleeful abandon. Mayer mentions Pal Joey, and the scene around Rockers Hi-Fi and their Different Drummer imprint, as reference points, and you can hear that freewheeling spirit throughout.

That’s The Floor Is Lava: then and now, brainwaves and nerve structures, problems and solutions, genres on fire; the real, the unreal, and the surreal. An album for the easily bored and the endlessly curious. Mayer has the last word, telling us all you need to know about the album’s spirit: “Burning for the cause, being zealous, being addicted to the heat of the night, the exuberant powers of music.”

Hometown Heroes: heSAWyou from Mexico City [MI4L.com]

When looking at techno artists emerging over the past few years it is hard to find any that are maintaining the seemingly unstoppable momentum of Alan Fitzpatrick. Hailing from Southampton the Drumcode mainstay and 8 Sided Dice boss has been winning plaudits across the globe for his constantly evolving brand of bass heavy techno. One such artist making similar strides within the world of electronic music is Portsmouth native and DT favourite Reset Robot who has quickly established a fierce reputation both in the DJ booth and the studio with the likes of Get Physical, Drumcode and Soma just a few of the imprints housing his talents in recent times.

Thus when we heard that Alan and Reset Robot were joining forces to to work under a collective moniker and start a new label together alongside Rhymos it's fair to say we were more than a little excited. Working under the name Customer, it's not the first time the pairing have hooked up, previously releasing tracks under a number of different pseudonyms but after hearing their latest work together as a duo on the 'Waiting' EP we certainly hope that it's not the last time they operate under the Customer alias.

Set to arrive May 25th as the sixth release for their burgeoning Whistleblower Records imprint, we're sure you'll be hearing plenty of the 'Waiting' EP when it lands next week so we thought we'd get in early and give you a taste of the EP ahead of its release as we nabbed its title track for exclusive premiere. Enjoy!

It takes time for a series of seperate ideas to evolve into a fully concepteptualized album if it wants to have a place in history for Ali and Basti Schwarz, better known as Tiefschwarz. Since 1998 the duo, as both DJ's and producers, have perfected the art of dominating the moments only experienced on a dance floor, deeply immersed in sound. Their music is unique as it is creative. Among the countless extended players and remixes, the three landmark Tiefschwarz albums: "RAL 9005", "Eat Books" and "Chocolate" all have a common thread weaving them together; a historic vision uniting the musical crossroads of past and future. As with the previous albums, Tiefschwarz pause briefly on the subjective localization of artists in the (music) world to create an album which unfolds like a story told by master story tellers. Igniting the dance floor while at the same time giving the listener the opportunity to look beyond themselves and into the journey that is "Left".

With "Left", Tiefschwarz were able to radicalize the album-specific approach and focus more intently on combining grooves with an introspective perspective. They refrained to bring in an outside co-producer for the album and made sure to forego the cliche variety of guest musicians, concentrating instead on one congenial companion: Khan, who both Ali and Basti have been close friends with since the 90's. Khan, a Frankfurt native of Turkish and Finnish decent, is one of the most prominent and exhilarating German Techno pioneers. Since the early 90's, Khan has been looking to the future with his Bizz O.D. moniker or his demimonde project Captain Comatose in the 2000's when he blew up the club world with his brand of fierce theatrics, trash and outrageous hits. He has published on Harvest, accompanied Gus Gus on tour and held residencies from Mexico to New York to Berlin. His residencies also highlight his choice of musical programming: devilish eroticism, glamour, and a "do it yourself' approach as well as combining three distinctly amusing personalities: the classic crooner, the diva, and the cabaret star. Between Tiefschwarz and Khan, the project emotes an entirely new undertone of glamour weaving beats through a Hollywood of broken dreams.

Vertere - Mind Against & Somne

Constantly turning around itself, the winding melody of Vertere turns outward and inward at the same time, bringing the listener on a journey outward while mirroring a simultaneous labyrinthine journey inward. Like the word itself, Vertere, with its roots in the Latin word Verto (which itself takes its roots in the earlier Sanskrit word, Vartayati) it signifies the very nature of change itself. It means both to turn and reflect inward and yet also move forward — a call to action for setting in motion new things. A paradox at first glance but also perhaps a surprisingly accurate description of the destructive and reconstructive nature of creation. An apt metaphor for this bright new collaboration between established Life and Death artists Mind Against and the new artist project of Federico Maccherone, aka Somne.

On remix duties, when you have an artist of the caliber of Tobias Freund, you don’t need to ask for anything more and with his outstanding remix of Vertere he very clearly shows why. This long time mainstay of the electronic music scene has managed to stay not just relevant but on the cutting edge longer than most with respected releases on some of the most seminal imprints to be putting out music in the world of underground dance music. With Vertere he takes what’s already top quality material and somehow manages to turn it inward and in his own unique way elevate it to another level entirely. With a relentless beat and a sonic force that is hard to describe with mere words the Tobias. remix of Vertere comes out of the gate like a runaway machine rapturously drunk on its own self awareness. It marches ever forward, full of fervor, and will surely be driving dance floors both large and small to the euphoric edge of the ecstatic state.

Anton Pieete returns with a new selection of cuts for Rejected, following up December’s hugely successful ‘Galician’ EP. 

The raw, warm analogue sounds continue on his latest quartet as Chicago and Detroit influences are again combined with the now reknowned grooves of the Dutchman. Lead track ‘Teleporter’ eases us in with its delicate and playful keys, bongos and echoing vocal stabs. ‘Chemistry’, while kicking harder, still retains a regal deepness with its pulsing synths and catchy melody only broken but its rasping snares and glistening cymbal rides. 

Measured and refined, the EP continues by plunging us deeper still into the sensual delights of ‘Hundreds’. With a dreamy ambient flourish, the track never peaks and teases with its tender drums, that never fully surface. Anton signs off with a mercury raiser in ‘Arizona’. The drowsy bassline matches each beat to craft an addictive and hypnotic groove. A real heater to close yet another impressive EP from Mr. Pieete.

20 years in the game is an achievement worth celebrating,  particularly in the fickle world of underground dance music. DJ Clé and Mike Vamp have both left an indelible mark on the culture, both individually and as the Märtini Brös.  

To celebrate, the pair have commissioned a number of remixes for some of their most well known work, and this EP showcases some highlights. 

The Butch remix of 2004’s electro-clash-tinged Big and Dirty is a suitably energetic affair - firing percussion and a restless, edgy beat propel the track forward. The iconic vocals by Eric D. Clark feature strongly, wrapped around a sick acidic synth. 

Flash appeared on their debut album 'Pläy' in 2002 and is one of their biggest hits. Here it gets remixed by the Kompakt legend Michael Mayer - his 606 remix is a deep, rolling affair for the house heads, bringing a few new levels to the original from 2001. The instrumental mix sets aside the vocals for maximum dancefloor focus. 

Babyhaze first dropped in 1999, and here is remixed by tech-house legend Mathias Kaden. The track is given a 2019 overhaul, 
spicing up the groove in the signature style of the German DJ and producer.
