Joachim Pastor ft. Florence Bird - Wayfaring Stranger (Mike Maass Killing Strangers Rework)

KILLEKILL PODCAST 18

Foremost international techno outlet Drumcode is delighted to announce the release of its next full-length album, ‘Satellite’, by enduring Italian techno talent Sam Paganini.

Though he has been active since the mid nineties, recent years have been hugely successful for Sam, with searing techno EPs coming on revered labels such as Riche Hawtin’s Plus8, Sven Vath’s Cocoon and of course, Adam Beyer’s Drumcode. In his time he has been responsible for underground hits like ‘Zoe’, ‘Polyester’ and ‘Fire In My Arms’, all of which demonstrate his dynamic understanding of sexy, dark and hypnotic techno grooves and at the same time have earned him plenty of great Beatport chart positions as well as respect from the best in the game.

Incredibly, ‘Satellite’ is Sam’s first full-length album. Informed by his DJ gigs at legendary places like Berghain in Berlin and Cielo in New York, the album starts with a dystopian bit of sonic scene setting, as if a space ship is charging up ready to take off.

From there it’s a case of getting straight down to business. ‘Another Chance’ is a spacey bit of cantering techno and ‘White’ is rooted in devastating kick drums and is riddled with serrated synth lines that build lots of great techno pressure. ‘Down’ is an undulating bit of funky techno complete with choice vocal flourishes and tracks like ‘Lotus’ are prime offerings from the deeper end of the scale.

No two tracks sound the same on Satellite: Sam is always teasing out a new bit of texture, nailing a slightly different vibe or exploring different amounts of light and dark throughout the course of this most excellent album. This is evidenced by diverse cuts like ‘Dusty’, ‘Toxic’ and ‘Rave’.

Despite ‘Satellite’ being Sam’s debut album, it showcases his seductive style in all its glory across 12 fantastic tracks that will leave you begging for more.

Strata East Mix Part 1

Dynamics, harmony, silence, whisper, and then a raging storm. This is the band called INTU. Based on the folklore of several European cultures, they compose their music with a mixture of endless variations and fortuitous tunes in different aspects from time to time. Their musical construction is intuitive and improvisational. 

The idea of the formation conceived in the summer of 2010 at a street music playing. Thence the band recorded 2 studio albums, got invitations to many club and festival, but they also played at wedding ceremony, subcultural meetings, smoky pubs, open-air gatherings, and participated in theatrical performance besides street music in bigger cities. 

On the other hand the group often cooperates with guest musicians, and they organize themselves ’flat concerts’ and ’outdoor lantern nights’ typically in the picturesque locations in the city of Pécs. 

The band is planning to record and publish their third full length album called „Nordingar” which will pronouncedly based on northern folklore (music and legend) treasure. /2015/

In short, Leon Baggots and Claire Spooner's raison d'etre is primarily concerned with carefully construed and nimble house music. But what happens if you remove one half of the equation? What would happens if you took out Claire’s Yin to Leon’s Yang?

Well now we can find out as we’ve secured the talents of Leon, solo, under his MeMyself guise for our mix of the day series. Check it out complete with tracklist here:  http://datatransmission.co.uk/news/mix-day-exclusive-memyself-mix/

Vegim - Kennst du mich

Dancing People Are Never Wrong! That´s a fact! And finally Jan Blomqvist, uprising Star of the Berlin club scene, brings you the intense sound of Swiss-based Art-Pop Band The Bianca Story to the dancefloor with an incredible Club-Remix. After his recent success with "The Devil In Me", a glorious collaboration with Oliver Koletzki as part of Großstadtmärchen 2, Blomqvist currently discovers Switzerland and newly created a smooth and deep club-version of the song. New structure, flawless vocals snippets and propulsive percussion let you get dancefloor ready - so keep in mind: Dancing People Are Never Wrong!



The bianca Story - Dancing People Are Never Wrong (Jan Blomqvist RMX)

Many times, biographies of techno acts start by singing their praise of an extremely early,
extraordinary talent on synthesizers and other electronic devices.

In Heron’s case, things are different. Because Martin Spittel has been shaped musically since his childhood, the influences were as diverse as music can be.

On one side, there was his grandfather, who played various instruments, and to whom young Martin related closest to and whose influence still lasts until today. On the other side there were his cousins who were not much older than himself, enthusiastic about AC/DC, and band members themselves. Over the course of the following years, he explored the diversity of Black, Death and Trash Metal, EBM and Industrial, right up to Detroit Techno.

Ever since then, Heron's environment served as compensation to ferce parties and expanding his musical horizon. This symbiosis from the love of nature and the musical influences from his early childhood are a direct reflection of Heron’s entire life.

Following the scream of the waders (limicoline birds), he moved to picturesque island Norderney in 2003. There, exploring the island’s national park, he decided to live up to his enthusiasm about nature by going to study landscape ecology at the University of Münster. It turned out: The relocation to Münster was the initial spark for his career; the months in Norderney were inspiration for the name of his label “Limikola” which was founded in late 2008 and enjoyed enormous support by both DJs and fans.

After launching his now very successful °Schaltkreis-parties with four friends in mid-2007, everything went quickly: His first own radio show “The Grasshopper Warbler”, contacts to prominent players like Someone Else and Heartthrob, and finally the moment in early 2008 during the season’s opening at Time Warp, when Richie Hawtin played all three tracks from Heron’s Retro EP. It was merely his second EP, released on a netlabel (Minisome), and it became immediately successful. A knightly accolade.

The journey that Heron started lead to his bombshell track “Welcome to the Adventure Club” that charted in the Beatport charts in 2008, and continued with remixes and releases for Synewave, Supdub, Swap, micro.fon, Prosthetic Pressings and Sleaze Records. In 2010, it culminated with a tour across North America during the summer.

Two years later he released his very first EP on the legendary Detroit label KMS Records, owned by Kevin Saunderson, followed by remixes for Drumcomplex, P-Ben and Chris Gekä, one collaboration project with Inner City's Ann Saunderson and his second solo release „Ride The Pride“. Furthermore he made the step into the Soma family by publishing three solo EPs and an EP with Kevin's son Dantiez Saunderson, as well as he started to release on Florian Meindl's FLASH Recordings.
