TECHNO

‘Straight off the back of a fine new EP released just before Xmas and incredible run of shows over Christmas and New Year, Irish techno hero Matador is riding high and is ready to unleash a second EP of weapons on this new release. All the cuts on it have been road-tested to destruction at Timewarp, Lovelands, Awakenings, Verboten, Fabric and many other shows around the world.

Matador’s year started off with a very special ALL LIVE Loveland party celebrating the Amsterdam dance institution’s 20th anniversary and has already clocked up appearances at Fabric in London and Sankeys in Manchester so far this year.

‘BSunday’ kicks the EP off in moody style, with raw analogue lines unfolding over lively drums. Big percussive circles and tripped melodies also flesh out this killer groove. ‘DaHustle’ is then a more groovy thing with nimble bass notes, charming sense of atmosphere and colourful synth patterns running through the arrangement. The arpeggiated bass, when it lands, has sent floors into overdrive at all Matador’s sets of late. 

‘I Gotcha’ takes cues from classic house with its pining cow bells, and the mid tempo drums rock back and forth as dark voices and spraying synths all work to get you shaking your backside. ‘Song 2’ then goes all deep and stripped back, with wooden hits, curious synth patterns and oodles of groaning bass before closer ‘Vagenda’ marries elastic beats and bass with sci-fi melodies, lots of thick texture and warm atmospheres.

Every track here is sure to do a fine job on the dance floor, and each one proves that Matador has many different but equally essential tricks up his sleeve.   

This Collection of EP 1 and EP 2 tracks PLUS an iTunes Exclusive track PLUS an exclusive live mix of them all by Matador hit itunes on 16th March.’

Argentina meets Italy in a high-voltage collaboration as Nicolo (AR) joins forces with Italian-Dutch duo ALOSOUL for a supersonic double-tracker on EXTIMA, titled Groove Theory [EP]. The result is a release that perfectly captures the energy of peak-time techno, built for packed dancefloors and dark warehouse spaces alike.

The headliner, "Groove Theory," is a powerful techno weapon that immediately hooks with mesmerizing female vocals layered over pulsating low-end vibrations. Its driving energy and hypnotic groove make it a perfect tool for DJs looking to raise the tension in their sets while keeping the crowd in full motion.

On the flip side, "Moves For The Beat" delivers an equally forceful impact. Thunderous low frequencies intertwine with vocal snippets that seem designed for dancefloor mayhem. This track doesn't hold back—it's relentless, storming, and unapologetically peak time, proving the chemistry between Nicolo and ALOSOUL runs deep.

Both artists bring their unique DNA to the table. Nicolo (AR), hailing from Mendoza, Argentina, has quickly carved out his place in the global techno scene with acidic rhythms, dark textures, and atmospheric depth. His music has found its way onto respected imprints like Set About, IAMT, and EXTIMA, with support from heavyweights such as Bart Skils, Sama Abdulhadi, The Yellowheads, and Space 92.

ALOSOUL, the Italian-Dutch duo, infuse their productions with the raw energy of live musicianship—born from their backgrounds as a drummer and guitarist. Their tracks have already gained momentum on labels like Autektone, Animarum, and Set About, landing them spots on Beatport's Top 100 Techno charts and recognition from names like Lilly Palmer, Maddix, and Layton Giordani.

With Groove Theory [EP], EXTIMA once again demonstrates its role as a hub for forward-thinking techno, giving space to rising talents who bring fresh dynamics to the sound of today's clubs. This release is nothing short of a weapon for DJs and a statement for fans of high-impact techno.

Release date: 28/09/2007

Why are the vocals turned down so low? This is the way we make Techno!

To mark the label’s 50th release Marc Houle gets right back to basics with two raw, stripped down future classics. What’s more both vinyl cuts, “Techno Vocals” and “On It” clock in at under six minutes meaning that this compact 12inch’s sound and message is going to be coming through extra loud and clear.

On “Techno Vocals” (as with all Houle productions) each sound is perfectly realised, commanding its own space with metronomic discipline. The rigid drum patterns, analogue explosions, regimented snare rolls, laser guided effects and delayed bleeps interact with supreme efficiency, while the arrangement is mapped out with cool, calculated intent. The result is a totally robust example of A-grade techno that’s really brought to life by the self-referential, pitched down vocal hook!

It’s well documented that Marc has more than a passing interest in 80’s electro, New Wave and retro computer games and these influences are somehow more apparent on Minus 50 than on his earlier solo releases or as part of Run, Stop, Restore. “On It” in particular will turn a few heads, making, as it does, a detour into previously unexplored territory. Revolving around a heavily filtered melodic bass riff, Houle punctuates the dry, upfront groove with a choice selection of rough, old school samples before dropping into a series of moody bass variations that give the track its distinctive flavour.

To complete the release, dub and accapella versions of “Techno Vocals” are also available as digital downloads offering amongst other things the chance to reformat the vocals over the original beats.
