Following EXHALE’s first VA release in 2020, the party series by @amelielens turned label once again welcomes existing members, flourishing producers and blossoming new artists to the EXHALE family for its second various artists compilation.

Opening the record are hardware aficionados @999999999music with ‘Alarm 303’ - a powerful techno floor destroyer armed with a reverberating kick, rushy rave stabs and a barrage of alarms. Promising newcomer @jastice_music presents an energetic ravey cut that weaves between faded synths and a softened vocal, accompanied by an entrancing interlude with ‘Hey You’. Mancunian producer @kontainmcrr dishes out ‘Neck Crank’, a hybrid of gritty rumbling bass chords, strident synths and an unwavering kick. Istanbul’s @grafinmusic continues by deftly combining electronic stabs, flurried hi-hats and gravitating synths layered above the melody in ‘Chatty Echoes’.

Following is ‘Bóg Jest w Techno’ event boss @septonly, who presents us with a stripped back cut layered with piercing synth keys and gentle electro elements in ‘Beyond The Veil’. Acid stabs and a female voice echo the track title in @raven's trippy cut ‘Metal On Metal’, with light airy synths to close out that simulate euphoria. We’re taken on a dark and weightier expedition with @frazi_er in ‘Systematic Ignorance’ - a brooding bass drives the sound, with acid melodies adding texture throughout. Keeping up pace is ‘Kendall’ by @trymofficial, a cinematic composition that utilises cymbals, hi-hats and synth notes to create a brighter melody over its dark percussion.

Rounding off is London techno talent @charlie-sparks-531540495 who equips the record with weapon ‘Tataki’, combining Japanese vocals with acid 303’s, sirens and powerful kick drums. Next up we have @under-black-helmet with ‘Rogue’, an industrial style track that uses familiar dark themes characterized by distorted keys and commanding kicks. Brooklyn’s @xiorro follows with ‘Healing Colors’ featuring Adrestia, with a yearning distorted vocal sample, protruding percussion and jagged synth keys. The finale is delivered by EXHALE mainstay @ahl-iver’s ‘There Is Always Light’ - a trancy endeavour that juggles hi-hats and cymbals with twinkling euphoric synth keys and long waning bass chords.

Procedente de la ciudad de Pereira, el productor Gotshell debuta en Bpitch Berlin con un amplio y potente EP de 8 pistas, con sonidos de sistema modular crujientes, producido en solidaridad con las protestas en curso en su Colombia natal.

Gotshell se hizo un nombre a través de apariciones en Mord, Planet Rhythm, Nachtstrom Schallplatten, EPM y Blueprint de James Ruskin. Prolíficas, diversas e impredecibles son sus producciones que entrelazan loops clásicos de techno de la vieja escuela, IDM, breaks y ruido experimental. Como intérprete en live,  sus sets son libres y psicodélicos, y han sonado en festivales como Freedom en Colombia y Jungle Groove en Ecuador, además de clubes underground en Chile, Argentina, Perú, Ecuador, Colombia y Tresor Berlin le han valido un seguimiento internacional.

Rezagados es un clamor contra la represión de la disidencia por parte del gobierno colombiano y la creación de lo que el productor llama una "realidad distorsionada que minimiza la esperanza".

A lo largo de 8 pistas, Gotshell está en pleno vuelo, desde el tecno rítmico cruzado retorcido hasta el IDM intrincado. Momentos de oscuridad se equilibran con destellos de luz, sonidos de la naturaleza y una euforia penetrante, antes del clímax profundo y retorcido del EP. Es el sonido de un productor inquieto y decidido a resistir.

PREMIERE: Gotshell - Falacia [Bpitch Berlin]

SCOPÁVIK 148 | Inigo Kennedy [FINAL EPISODE]

FLUCC’s latest EP observes our transition into a new dystopian era. Not only are all the original tracks on this release techno missiles solely intent on becoming club destroyers, but the additional remixes from PLEXØS devilishly turn it into a weapon of true annihilation. From
beautiful organic sounds to marching bass and howling synths, tones are introspective and vulnerable - while the looming presence of uncertainty subtly takes form in thinly layered pads.

1 FLUCC - Creature From The Forest
2 FLUCC - Why Are You Running
3 FLUCC - Shooting Stars And Meteorites
4 FLUCC - Shooting Stars And Meteorites (PLEXØS Remix)
