When I played in Belgrade I met this talented newcomer Ilija Djokovic who played a great set before me. He sent me his tunes and I was so impressed that I put one of his tracks on my essential mix right away.
I hope you enjoy these deep soulful techno release as much as I do plus a funky Hatzler remix! (Monika Kruse)

Drumcode returns with its 6th installment of the internationally celebrated A-Sides series. Renowned for fostering a shared space between industry tastemakers and rising talent alike, the careful curation that goes into each volume is a fine example of why Beyer’s brand continues to go from strength to strength.

Techno titan Adam Beyer has grown Drumcode into a force to be reckoned with; the label has become synonymous with forward-thinking, functional techno and even after 20 years, Drumcode continues to find new boundaries to push, and ways to solidify its legacy as the world’s number one techno label.

2017 is no exception, with Beyer’s imprint hosting it’s first stage at Tomorrowland, not to mention the expansion of the critically acclaimed Junction 2 where the Drumcode stage is the centrepiece and Adam plays the key role of festival director. The Drumcode phenomenon continues to grow each week, chiefly fuelled by Drumcode Radio, Adam’s radio show that’s broadcast in 57 countries via 86 stations and to a global audience of 16 million techno fans per week.

The A-Sides series acts as a perfect vignette of Drumcode’s cutting-edge sound; functional yet inspired techno, all tracks tried and tested by Beyer himself. Vol. 6 continues this tradition with a collection of 16 multi-faceted cuts from a mixture of both emerging artists and experienced label friends.

The new Intec release is from British born Rebecca Godfrey who is better known to Techno fans as BEC via her seminal releases on Pan-Pots label Second State. Now living in Berlin, BEC has received critical acclaim from publications like Pulse Magazine who recently listed her alongside the likes of Helena Hauff, Dasha Rush and Rebekah as one of The Underground's 10 Leading Ladies. BEC has a great future ahead as she continues to make waves and plays gigs everywhere from London to Hong Kong. Including a release on Hydrozoa this is only her second release outside of Second State, and Intec are honoured to welcome her to the family. Starting with pulsating synths "Forwards" builds with tightly sequenced percussion. The lead synths uplifting notation is offset by eerie bass stabs, and these contrasting moods combine to create captivating tension. Stripped back with subtlety at its core, this techno track takes control without you even knowing it's got you under its spell. Track two "Motion" has a clatter of metallic claps and morphing synths that ripple and shimmer. Understated with a hypnotic groove, the mechanical rhythms flow with precision engineering and attention to detail. Like lemon sorbet, this is the perfect palette cleaner, but can also be served as a bitter sweet dessert.

Techno titans Pan-Pot are proud to present SUM 7, the latest compilation on their esteemed Berlin label Second State. It’s another quality release full of class and character, and as always, plenty of dancefloor ammunition.

“Parallax” is a case in point. British producer Jon Rundell teams up with Canadian producer Carlo Lio on this tickling groover that takes its time working towards an understated but deeply satisfying release. A versatile club weapon for techno and house dancefloors, “Parallax” sees both producers at the height of their powers. Up-and-coming Italian producer Endrew delivers an impressively mature slice of techno in “Cyclic Venture”, a lean, fidgety track that builds tension with restless windblown synths and tinny arpeggios. Glaswegian Gary Beck’s “Rapture” is a jacking body-mover propelled by cheeky guitar riffs and a winking vocal sample. Sexy and full-bodied, it’s guaranteed to get backs off walls.
London-based and Naples-indebted, Hyperloop and his track “A Journey” are built for big rooms. True to the producer’s name, its menacing synths are designed to induce a hypnotic state. A slow and stealthy build creates an undeniable energy. Together, Dutch producer JNO and Italy’s Giovanni Carozza don’t mess around. A peak-time bomb for getting the crowd worked into a frenzy, the insistent horn synths and thumping drums of “Crispy” mean serious business, especially in the furious final stretch. No standing, only dancing here. Germany’s Klaudia Gawlas, working with Argentinian DJ and producer Flug, who already released a track on Second State’s last compilation, turns in a moody, simmering techno track, “The Matrix”. Like the film, it’s both futuristic and strangely trippy, perfect for switching gears in the room.
Neapolitan producer Raffaele Rizzi brings in fresh rave energy that sounds at once old and new. The proggy synths on “Fluorescence” are indeed technicoloured and a frosty female vocal sample lends the production an alluring mystique. After she released a sharp tune on the SUM 6 earlier this year, on “Enough”, Risa Taniguchi creates a chilling mood with repeated vox and a squelchy synth, combining to create a sense of foreboding. Second State mainstay Rocko Garoni turns the vibe a little weird, in a good way, on “Sane”. It’s a mind-melting combination of synths and textures that blossoms into unexpected directions mid-track. One for the afters.
Venetian Sara Simonit lends a certain northern cool to “13 Guns”, and brings a lively, energizing techno track with a delicious build and housey groove to this compilation. Veteran Dutch producer Secret Cinema still has it: the ability to create a mood that keeps the crowd on their toes, but always dancing. Closing the compilation, the shuffling beat of “Creaking” would work as well in a club as at a forest rave; we’d expect nothing less from this master.

In sum, this is another thrilling compilation from the ever-reliable Second State, showcasing industry veterans alongside exciting new talents. The dynamic range of sounds and styles within makes SUM 7 essential for techno DJs and techno fans alike.
