INFO
It was early 2007 when Inigo Kennedy inaugurated Token. Since that Identify Yourself 12” the Belgian label has gone from strength to strength, integrating both Kennedy and Ashley Burchett, aka Ø [Phase], into becoming integral cogs in the Token machine. In between releases by Grovskopa, Oscar Mulero and Go Hiyama, both Ø [Phase] and Inigo Kennedy dominated Token’s output, but it wasn’t until Burchett’s watershed Binary Opposition that Token received the shower of praise it deserved. Following this, label founder Kr!z issued three remix 12”s of that release which, including Token regulars, took in a profound cast of producers to reprocess “Binary Opposition” by the way of Sigha, Peter Van Hoesen, Planetary Assault Systems and Ben Klock. It was here Token stamped their authority on contemporary techno.

Since then Token has grown exponentially, bringing into their fold artists like Xhin, Mark Broom and Rødhåd, while Ctrls, formally one half of Northern Structures, has seen his solo career flourish on Token with the release of five records to date, and he joins Inigo Kennedy and Ø [Phase] as a label stalwart. Additionally this year, Orphx and Ancient Methods debuted their relentless Eschaton collaboration on Token, and Christian Wünsch’s Spherical Coordinates dalliance with Oscar Mulero has gained even more momentum with a second release called Kinematics Equations. Now, seven years after that debut Kennedy record, Token present Aphelion, a nine-track CD and triple vinyl grandstand of new and exclusive material from label regulars and like-minded artists whom Token founder Kr!z specifically commissioned for this milestone release.

The penultimate record before Aphelion was a second Token 12” by Rødhåd, another artist adding to the cultivation of the label’s sound and roster, and for this compilation the Berliner supplies his cosmically inspired “Haumea”. Joining the Dystopian founder on Aphelion are three of the UK’s most influential techno artists: Surgeon, James Ruskin and Luke Slater under his Planetary Assault Systems alias who provide Token with solo material for the first time after previously appearing on the imprint in remix form. Entirely new names to grace the label via Aphelion include Stroboscopic Artefacts founder Lucy, and Blawan and Pariah's Karenn project, while label faithfuls Inigo Kennedy,  Ø [Phase] and Ctrls naturally commit three Token defining productions.

Casting one’s eye over Token’s back catalogue and it’s clear to see the label is a staunch advocate of absolute techno, remaining steadfast in issuing quality material that remains true to classic strands of the genre regardless of its popularity flux. In that respect, Aphelion - a word used to describe the point in orbit when a planet or comet is farthest from the sun - provides a simple analogy that the magnetic force of Token, unfazed by the shadows cast by popular opinion, will proudly shine light on their artists and given styles. 

“We started in an era where our genre was very unpopular,” Kr!z explains. “And in the end that seemed a big advantage for us, because when everyone was giving up, we started our mission.” Regularly hosting label nights in prominent clubs around the world, Token has become a label supported by a wide-ranging body of artists like Âme and Ben Klock to Efdemin, Truss and Ancient Methods. With the label now branching out into album and compilation territory, Token’s duty to techno may not yet be accomplished, but it’s been a job well done.

Aphelion

Karenn - Pace Yourself

Release date (vinyl & digital format): 16th of March 2015

A spiralling maze of echoing bleeps and blips, booming low-end and warped orchestral flourishes dominate Token's latest offering. Considering the EP comes from Miguel Sar, an artist who has made his name aligning pulsating 4am techno with as many abstract, otherworldly details as he can muster however, perhaps this is to be expected. Under the alias 'Tadeo', Sar has navigated his way through richly textured dub, meandering acid and rugged warehouse techno, arriving at a sound which takes influence from each of his previous endeavours.

Earlier this month Token was graced with its 50th release in the catalogue, Ctrls' rough-edged three-tracker, 'Users'. Joining the label's rather impressive roster, Sar follows in excellent form - the 'Terra Incognita' EP making up the Spanish producer, DJ and label owner's debut on the imprint. The EP keeps the listener in a constant state of suspense, mind-bending atmospherics and driving percussion working up to sweltering climaxes at Sar's chosen moments. 'The Possibility Of An Encounter' or 'Apollo 7' for example thunder forward leaving little room to gather breath, both sinister and hypnotic in equal measure.

'Deep Space' is another dark, unsettling affair. Arpeggiated chords snake between deep, tribal rhythms. Sar's intoxicating synthwork is reinforced by steadily building woodwind melodies, creating moments of rushing intensity before sinking backdown into  brooding soundscapes.

'Mind Possibilities' deploys a similar mediation between synthetic and acoustic textures, yet in other instances Sar chooses to turn the focus to almost entirely orchestral timbres. 'Despert' closes the release with staccato'd oboes, swelling low-end and delicate strings, showing creativity and versatility rarely found in EPs with this much dancefloor appeal.

This is DJ Tonio's 3rd EP on Suara in only 16 months. Why? Because he delivers huge tunes that must see the light. "Closer, Faster, Stronger" is what a deep voice says. Those three words make this techno anthem. The package for this release is full of big names: the melodic-electronic style of Oliver Giacomotto, the old-new school techno combination from Thomas Schumacher and Victor Ruiz and the raw but effective grooves of Dennis Cruz.

Oscar Mulero is a one-man techno institution. Operating out of Madrid since the late 1980s, his productions reflect his deep understanding of techno through his tireless and disciplined work behind the decks. After his first release on Token in 2008, the ferocious Take Seven EP, Mulero teamed up with the comparably-accomplished Christian Wünsch for two more Token releases as Spherical Coordinates, sophisticated offerings of refined big room and bleep tracks.
 
Now he’s back with another solo 4-track contribution that feels like classic Mulero. Hyperbolic Paths is simultaneously deep and bleepy, accented by hi-hats in syncopation. The tom-heavy Suborbital Trajectories carries a serious groove, layered with lively melodic elements and an occasional unexpected statement cymbal crash. A haunting and hypnotic number, Inclination swells and increases in intensity, rolling on after its breakdown with a playful kick-clap interaction. Eccentricity is a spacious, dubby closing track with reverb-soaked ornamental splashes.

Zeitgest EP from @thereasonyberlin releases March 20th on MATTER+ Recordings
-
Sometimes you don’t need a reason for doing the things you do in life… Unless that’s The Reason Y. 

Nonstop bubbling since emerging on Pan-Pot’s Second State imprint, here we find the boundless Berlin boys making their debut on Victor Calderone’s Matter+ with three fine, focused techno adventures. Taking off where they left us with ‘Interception’ last year, expect nothing but full strength material. 

Slick sines of the times, ‘Zeitgeist’ says it like it is: an uptight kick drum looks over its shoulder as a classical dissonant detuned riff lurks from the shadows, reminding us of the same dark chapter techno first took root. Topped with stern spoken word motivation, it unites us all by summing up exactly where we’re at right now. 
‘Mamba Valley’ rolls forth, wiping the slate clean… A steam engine of a track with drums that thunder down the tracks relentlessly, the magic here is in the gradual percussive fluctuations that twist, turn and tease. Constant modulations until the very last sub note, this truly is a treat. 

Finally, we’re hit with the stark rejoinder to the opening paranoid gambit… ‘Broken Walls’ is a broad-shouldered, mind-plowing tech groove where misty, faraway textures creep stealthy from behind you. Totally timeless hypnosis material, the message is clear: Don’t build walls, break them down. Sometimes you definitely do need a reason for doing things you do in life…
