VOLTAGE Podcast 17 - Reka Zalan

We're so excited to share Yant's recording from our first party back after a long 18 month lockdown. 
We're proud to have witnessed Andy's journey to becoming an incredible DJ/ producer pushing a unique sound and continuing to put Manchester on the map where Techno in concerned. We consider ourselves privileged  to have played a part in his growth and don't need to tell you twice; he's one to watch out for. 

In his own words: 

"To end the year I wanted to share a special live recording from the first weekend back after the UK's lockdown. I played 2 hours for the Meat Free party here in Manchester, which if you don't know already, is a Manchester favourite. Run by an amazing crew of ladies who do a lot for the scene, and are super supportive, and close friends. This was an outdoor party, a sunny day, with everyone raring to go non stop, with a huge stack of F1's down a long outdoor tunnel... I was pretty happy with how the set went and definitely fed off the energy around that we could finally release after being cooked up inside. You can hear it on the recording, at points we mixed in the crowd noise, but didn't keep this through the whole set as the cheers & whistles didn't stop. Neither did the dancing 🕺 I will always have a memory of that day. It was special and at the city i'd call home. Enjoy x
Big love to @blasha&allatt @aalice @lucyironmonger @theladymachine & @freddyk who we'll see play for them 28th January 2022"

FINALMENTE.

Haut Parleur S03E05 - Kamen

Kamen, a talented producer and DJ based in Nantes, known for crafting techno tracks filled with infectious grooves and piercing energy that have resonated across club. In this mix, he steps beyond his usual territories to explore the concept of Time Boundaries, expanding his rhythms into uncharted spaces of non-rhythm. The journey unfolds as a delicate regression of patterns—building, dissolving, and reemerging in an ever-shifting dance, revealing unexpected unreleased by him. Ambient techno becomes the thread that ties it all together, creating a soundscape that moves both people and places. It’s a daring exploration of structure and chaos, where time itself feels elastic.

VARIA 014 - KAMEN

Italians Raffa FL and Riccardo De Polo combine once again this August to deliver ‘Six Teen’ on
Hector Couto’s Roush Label. A favourite of many, Verona’s Raffaele Calza, aka Raffa FL, has been turning heads for the past five years with his vocal-driven tech house productions. A heavily supported artist within the industry, most notably by Marco Carola who championed his cut ‘This Is How We Do’ weekly during Music On’s 2016 season - resulting in it becoming one of the White Isle’s biggest tracks of the year, the Italian has since racked up releases on the likes of Lee Foss’ Repopulate Mars and AVOTRE to name just a few. Joining him is rising countryman and fellow Verona native Riccardo De Polo, and with a recent debut collaboration on Roush’s 2018 ‘Not Ordinary Sampler’, the duo are back to deliver two fresh productions for the Tenerife imprint. ‘Six Teen’ opens proceedings as the pairing lay down a thick, driving bassline amongst hooky vocals, energy raising snare rolls and crisp, filtered hats, before ‘Honey’ lays the focus on resonant and soulful female vocals throughout, whilst the duo employ bumping low ends, regimented drum licks and an infectious groove line to reveal an up front, peak time dancefloor weapon.
Raffa FL & Riccardo De Polo ‘Six Teen’ is out on Roush on 31th August 2018.

Raffa FL, Riccardo De Polo - Honey

⚠ Your system is under attack! Joining the Steel City Dance battalion for their debut disc, @stacemp plugs in from Brisbane, Australia and takes aim at the rest of us with an apocalyptic 4-track blast of off-world Robo-Tech.

Equipped with an arsenal of sabre-rattling synth programming, piercing breaks and artificial vox intelligence, StacEmp summons an advanced club-ready hybrid of Techno, Electro and at times ethereal IDM. This mutant romp serves as a strong warning of what we’re about to witness from this new force.
