Pas très BOUM BOUM, mais un peu quand même.

Chill, but violent, but still chill

Release date: 2nd of September.

‘We should really work together one day.’ There’s no bigger cliché to be heard in backstage areas, that mythical transit zone where producers and deejays meet, chat and then hop on their tour buses again. Belgian dance-act The Subs heroically plotted collaborations with fellow musicians in various dressing rooms across the globe. What is truly heroic is that in their case, those nightly encounters led up to actual music, and some damn fine music too.
‘Collaborations’ is a double EP on which The Subs joined forces with both iconic names and underground producers.
Part 1 is an EP celebrating their on-going love affair with pure techno - for deejays, clubbers and nighthawks to devour.

The pulsating, sexy ‘The Moment to Give’ is a collaboration with French Touch-legend Etienne de Crécy. The French Touch-movement of the nineties has been incredibly important for The Subs. He’s also not a stranger to the Lektroluv catalogue remixing last years ‘Cycle’ by Boris Dlugosch. The vocals on ‘The Moment to Give’ – and every other track on the EP – are Jeroen’s.
Jack that body with ‘ The Mouth’, a banger for which The Subs sought out John Roman, who impressed many with ‘Infrared EP’, his 2012 debut on Lektroluv.
The techno beat goes on with the sinister ‘Demon’, a collaboration with Shinichi Osawa, the acclaimed Japanese DJ with whom The Subs already recorded ‘Bring Back That Noise’ in 2010. Watch out for a complete solo EP by Mr. Osawa on Lektroluv later on this year.
Closing the EP with a bang, The Subs and Hoshina Anniversary collaborate on the repetitive, robotic ‘French Soda’.

A new album is planned for 2014. With this EP however, The Subs confirm their firm roots in the club scene.

Who or what is Reset Robot? The chances are, if you've been more than an occasional visitor to any of the world's more discerning dancefloors, you'll most likely have been exposed to the sound; you may have already given yourself up to the techno and house excursions that have become the Reset Robot blueprint.

Emerging rejuvenated from the studio in 2009, Reset Robot announced himself with the licensing of no fewer than 6 tracks to Dubfire's label Sci+Tec. Further releases followed on Adam Beyer's Drumcode & Truesoul, Sven Väth's Cocoon and Slam's Soma Records. Current and future releases can also be found on Dogmatik and Intacto, but he has truly discovered a spiritual home on Beyer’s Truesoul sitting comfortably alongside some of the scene’s leading lights- Maetrik, Joel Mull, Ida Engberg and many more. 

With a tour diary taking in territories as diverse as Australia, USA and all corners of Europe. He has made appearances at Fabric, Tobacco Docks London with Drumcode, Space Miami and Panorama Bar Berlin.

With a sound that is at times minimal, yet always accessible; dark, but displaying flashes of blinding light; heavy, though so often floating weightless; Reset Robot is the best kind of contradiction. But you already knew that. And if you didn't, now is the time to find out.

Mark Reeve makes his welcome return to the Drumcode fold with a powerful three-tracker ‘Far Away’.

In recent years Mark Reeve has become a pivotal member of the Drumcode crew. His 2015 EP ‘Run Back’ was a standout, before he backed it up strongly with ‘Nine of You’, his collaboration with Adam Beyer that featured on A-Sides Vol.5, ensuring his place in the hearts of DC fans. As further evidence of his importance to the collective, Beyer has selected him to suit up for the inaugural Drumcode Festival happening this August in association with Awakenings. 

Harking back to formative times in the ‘90s when he’d frequent Sven Väth’s legendary Omen in Frankfurt, the title track to Reeve’s ‘Far Away’ is a timeless beauty, driven by a celestial melody line and emotive bass notes that lobs it into the kind of laser-kissed territory that would make even the most jaded of raves throw their arms skyward. ‘Fragile’ follows, a classy bass-driven cut that makes its mark with deep subterranean stabs and punchy kicks. Rounding out the EP is ‘Redemption’ a tougher, heads-down techno workout imbued with plenty of energy thanks to a crafty bass melody that runs throughout.

Alan Fitzpatrick’s We Are The Brave imprint has undoubtedly laid down seriously solid foundations. Now well into double figure, the label’s catalogue is forming into a formidable body of work with Alan’s anthemic ‘We Do What We Want’ backed up with a string of club bangers from Gary Beck, Reset Robot and Boxia, plus Fitzpatrick’s mammoth ‘El Jefe’ collaboration with Sasha, which closed out the labels 2017 release schedule in grand style.

Never one to rest on his laurels, Fitzpatrick is back in the driving seat and raring to go again. “I feel a real strong energy right now around the label and I am massively focused on pushing on from the really great start We Are The Brave has enjoyed”, he enthuses. To be fair it is not hard to see why with landmark occasions such as the highly anticipated (and totally sold out) 5000 capacity Alan Fitzpatrick’s Day Festival happening in Dublin on 17th March. After all, who can argue with that most over-used of clichés - fortune favours the Brave!

Of course, Alan’s first release of the year is a mega one. “These tracks have all been born in a different time and space, ranging all the way back in 2015 through to the end of last year. But I think together they fit well, which goes to show that like everything really, but certainly anything creative, it doesn’t make sense to rush things” says Alan

Lead track ‘Colour Of A Dream’ comes with cleverly crafted percussion and energetic claps alongside a dominant vocal, making the track instantly recognizable in the depths of any dancefloor. “I found myself looking back through old hard drives and I guess I found a lot of fresh inspiration from rediscovering music. It feels good to know an idea that has been lay dormant can all of a sudden become relevant, given the right time and space” adds Alan.

Next up, surging with fierce authority is ‘Joy Rider’ with its trademark thumping Fitzpatrick kick drum. A ravey synthetic hook line creates a gritty warehouse vibe, which is in complete contrast to the melodic, end-of-night-euphoria experience that is ‘Together Until The End’ - a truly musical work that oozes texture and emotion.

Arriving on the heels of Pleasurekraft's debut album, Argentine duo Beico & MT93 join the Kraftek family with their first release : Let There Be Dark EP. Brooding & dark as the name suggests, the title track goes full throttle from the getgo, armed with an infectious hook, it is a joy to watch audiences connect with the record on the dancefloor. For the flip side - fellow Argentine Nicolas Taboada joins the boys for their more melodic and emotive effort on "Polaris". Incredibly excited to be adding such talent to the kraftek catalogue, names that are certainly the rising stars of future techno.

Charging into 2018 like there’s no tomorrow, We Are The Brave continues to churn out top notch releases month after month. The label started out in 2017 with the runaway success of Alan’s “We Do What We Want” and continued to set the standards with dancefloor bangers from Gary Beck, Boxia, Darius Syrossian, Skober and Reset Robot. A noteworthy debut collab between Sasha and Alan closed out 2017, and a remix for the late Trevino. Not a lot to live up to then for 2018 I hear you say?

New year, new artists and lots of new music! Next up is German artist Kevin De Vries, making his grand debut on the label this April with ‘Aurora’. I am especially excited to see this release on the label. I have been into a lot of Kevin's music over the last year or so and we have been speaking about a release for some time” says Alan.

Lead track ‘Aurora’ comes with a rolling bass, yet subtle and effective rhythmic tones. Its filled with luscious textures and a powerful hi hat which punctuates through the drive. “I made Aurora and Nemesis nearly a year ago and tested them a lot at gigs I played. The feedback I got was amazing” adds Kevin.

“I always loved to listen to old 90's Trance which inspired me a lot. I love the catchy melodies and also the energy they give to you while listening” continues Kevin. ‘Nemesis’ is the groovier of the two, a low-end flare, cyber synths in the background and an uplifting hook.

Kevin explained he wanted to make something which felt timeless and could have easily been produced as much in 1997 as it could have 2027. “I really respect how hard he has worked at crafting these tracks for us, and the results speak for themselves. Both tracks have been absolute weapons for me and I am sure everyone will feel the same.” Alan

Pleasurekraft presents: Monolith Series Vol 2

Joyhauser - Galaxy Phase

Almost one year after the debut-Diynamic-EP which held the #1 spot in the Beatport Deep House charts for over a month, Ukranian duo ARTBAT return to Diynamic with their follow up Upperground EP.

Opening the EP is title track Upperground, an ethereal upbeat House tune which has been an essential component of the sets of Solomun in the past weeks. Atlas showcases their ability to step over to the dark side with a fist-pumping melodic Techno thumper.Closing off the record is Dont Bring Me Down, which was written by Dino Lenny and enhanced by ARTBATs brush into an emotional dancefloor hymn. The pairing of its string arrangements and the touching vocals of Dino Lenny will surely make for memories that last past the night out in which you hear it.
