< Binaryh is back to Prisma Techno with 'Icarus' EP.
< The release marks the seven years of Prisma Techno.

Singularity and consistency are two words that define Binaryh's trajectory well. The Brazilian duo formed by Camila and Rene has been hitting hits with each new release and has already become one of the most beloved couples on the world techno scene.

The prosperous relationship built between Binaryh and Prisma started in 2018, with the remix of 'Pulsar' by Paulo Foltz. In 2019 the duo released their first authorial EP on the label, 'Hydra', a hurricane on both streaming platforms and dance floors, being played at major festivals around the world by artists like Tale of Us, D-Nox, Eli Iwasa, Renato Ratier and many others. In 2020 two more great original hits with ‘Palladium’ EP also received support from prominent artists such as Fur Coat and Blancah. These releases constitute a solid base that is the result of the union of the serious and solid work of both parties.

We are now in 2021, and Binaryh is back to Prisma Techno for another great chapter in this story with ‘Icarus’ EP, which is the 36th release of the label and marks Prisma’s seven years of existence.

The title track 'Icarus' brilliantly combines two antagonistic forces, acid and melodic, symbolizing the duo essence, a perfect contrast between harmony and chaos. For those who know the history of Icarus, it will be easy to associate the acid tones with the moment when his wings are burning by the heat of the sun, and the melody corresponding to the dazzle of being flying. 'Icarus' demonstrates all the duo genius, presenting characteristics never seen in their previous productions. It's a powerful weapon, which fits perfectly in the most energetic moment of the dance floor!

The second track of the EP, 'Procyon', has the same name as the brightest star in the Canis Minoris constellation, being, in fact, a binary star system formed by the spectral white Procyon A and its tenuous white dwarf companion Procyon B, orbiting each other.  Here Binaryh intersperses two melodic lines in an analogous way the stars cosmic dance, an epic and intergalactic feeling emphasized by orchestral strings, a characteristic very present in their productions. The break's return is euphoric and relieving, with timbres so hot that they can warm even the coldest of hearts. It is impossible not to fall in love with this couple!

In this release, we still have two remixes from label artists. Vicius was challenged to reinterpret the title track, ‘Icarus’, and presented us with a much more mysterious and esoteric version, succeeding in strongly printing his personality without losing the clear memory of the original story. Chappier once again surprised us with a hat-taking remix, his version of 'Procyon' presents the original story in a unique aesthetic, with influences from new wave, indie dance,  synthetic synths characteristic of the 80's video games, being conducted by well-marked grooves and unpredictable moments. This is something new, impactful and borderless!

While Stephan Bodzin's Beatport No.1 album 'Boavista' still reverberates around the world, the techno mainstay has now collected 25 of the scene's most interesting artists to add their own remixes. The likes of Solomun, Dubfire, Mind Against, Roman Flugel, Agents of Time, Anna, Wehbba, Hernan Cataneo & Soundexile and many more all make this a richly diverse affair.

This is a collection packed with gems from the off: Diynamic label boss Solomun opens up with his lively melodic take on Rose featuring cosmic synths and neon pads, his label mates Adriatique then go deep with their take on River and Italian duo Mind Against layer up the astral synths to epic effect with their Earth remix.

Jupiter Jazz aka Maceo Plex & AVNU then link for a remix of Theory Of Everything that is filled with swirling synth colours and German maestro Roman Flugel flips Earth into a cinematic track with pensive pads and digitalised leads. There is also classy progressive house from Patrice Baumel, widescreen techno from ANNA and hard, acid tinged techno from Reinier Zonneveld as well as suppler rolling rhythms from Dubfire with many other standout remixes in between.

Boavista Remixes is an essential album packed with plenty of fresh perspectives from across the house and techno spectrum.

While this is an unofficial remix and not a proper release, it's one of my favorite tracks to date. Billie's voice is just incredible; like hot butter, it melts right through the heavy electronic landscape I created around it.

Hope you enjoy playing this track as much as I did making it.

We're pleased to welcome back one of the Respekt OGs: Tom Laws.

'Time and Place' is a sublime slice of rave-referencing, peak-time, goosebump-inducing techno mastery, with a glorious original vocal backed up by classic pianos and pads, which then submit to a pummelling groove. 'Nothing to Hide' on the flip is a more straightforward, but no less effective tool, with a hypnotic, looping synthline and vocal.

Atroxx is back on Markantonio's AnalyticTrail with a new track called “Breathe” which also features a remix from Roberto Capuano who is known for his releases on labels like Drumcode, Second State and Suara.

In addition to AnalyticTrail, Atroxx has also featured on Odd Recordings, Unrilis, Octopus and Kraftek. "Breathe" is the first single taken from Atroxx forthcoming album titled "Second Renaissance" that’s scheduled for the 6 of November and signifies the next chapter in his creative journey.

Stepping up on remix duty, Roberto Capuano is one of Italy’s most accomplished young talents who in addition to playing DJ sets all over the world, is also a respected producer who has released on some of techno’s most influential labels.

The original mix of “Breathe” opens the release with a slow building tension that gradually introduces a monstrous lead synth and its menacing vibe fills the track with an enthralling energy. Keeping the original's dark vibe and namesake vocal sample, Roberto Capuano reworks the track into a spacious version with a new funk-fuelled bassline that drives the track, while an eerie melody adds to the suspense.

Atroxx states that “The track Breathe is about taking a step back from all things, thinking clearly and logically before reacting to an issue. It is about being logical and not acting on impulse, as making the right choice requires patience, and we find patience through keeping calm. The song itself has a harsh synth lead to represent the chaos of life’s ups and downs, and the vocals remind us that even when things get tense, it’s important to breath and keep a level head.”

To start 2021 with a bang we are proud to introduce ICONYC One. The 3rd and final chapter in the ICONYC label trilogy. ICONYC One will serve straight up techno made by some of the biggest names the scene has to offer, with the objective of blending deep, granular sound design with the 4-bar rhythmic intensity and patterning that makes house and techno so club-effective.

To start this new exciting chapter, we welcome Soolver with their outstanding 3 track 'Mother EP'. Soolver who hail from Germany have seen their releases grace well-known entities like Umek's 1605, Frankyeffe's RIOT and Metodi Hristov's Set About to name a few.

We kick things off with 'Mother' a peak time melodic techno dance floor monster which features a blend of deep bass tones, driving drum programming, cleverly chopped samples and intricately laced chord progressions, building to a massive breakdown before rebuilding to an unrelenting crescendo of energetic drum beats, chord stabs and an ever-warped bassline. Mother is a club monster that growls from the minute you push the play button.

Next up is 'Verve'; a straight up techno affair that delves into deeper territory, which sees driving drums fused with chord hits underpinned by Soolver's trademark bass patterns, before all manner of varied melodies weave in and out of the stereo field to maximum effect. Fantastic stuff!

To close out the release, Soolver drop 'Jahwe' a stripped back melodic track utilizing a hypnotizing chord as the basis of the track underpinned by driving drums that gradually ease their way to the breakdown before unleashing into a rising melodic hook intertwined with the infectious groove that fades in and out for maximum effect.

Soolver's 'Mother EP' delivers influenced melodic techno beats to start the year in style and that will make everyone smile. Another essential release from ICONYC aimed straight at the soul, be ready to dance to it!
