Polygonia's latest release, "Otro Mundo EP," is a fascinating exploration of sound and rhythm that finds a home on Bambounou's Bambe label. Hailing from Munich, Polygonia crafts tracks that boldly venture into uncharted musical territories, showcasing her meticulous sound design and vibrant harmonies.

Our premiere for today, "Mind Alteration," immediately grabs attention with its dance floor-friendly groove. It's as if Polygonia has summoned an otherworldly chorus to meld with an infectious tribal rhythm. The result is a track that seamlessly blends the hypnotic allure of extraterrestrial sounds with the irresistible pulse of tribal percussion.

"Otro Mundo EP" is coming out on September 15 via Bambe record label.

Otro Mundo (BAMBE004)

PREMIERE: Polygonia - Mind Alteration [Bambe]

030/313 – Berlin/Detroit, the fundamental techno union. Now Carhartt WIP, whose roots can be traced to Detroit, Michigan, join forces with Tresor for a collaboration that celebrates the enduring spirit of two music metropolises. Referencing the early 90s compilations like "Tresor II – A Techno Alliance", they present a 12" mini compilation with exclusive material from both cities.  

The compilation opens with "I.D.L.E.", a lost Model 500 track, of essential funk that touches the techno soul of The Motorcity, with trippy melodies and cosmic drilling traversing electrified Mojo freeways. It's followed by another true Detroiter: Ectomorph's "Searching (Live At Globus)", a first extract from their live set at Globus in 2021, which BMG and Erika played on borrowed equipment after Erika's case was lost on a flight. The A-Side stays in Detroit and finishes with "Your Body", an exclusive track by AMX, also known as The AM, one of Detroit's freshest funk techno sensations. She carries on the mentorship mindset by having learned from two of the greatest: D.I.E. and Scan 7. "Your Body" is a classic techno feel swinger, where subtle chords meet drum machine funk in the spirit of early Detroit techno.

DJ Stingray 313 opens the B-Side with a bang. Precisely hacked techno, full of dark funk and that special industrial jack, that the man in the mask has made his own. A total "Dynamic Instability". Magic & furious. The thrill continues with "Metal Goat", by JakoJako, one of Berlin's brightest synth sensations. She provides an introspective grower that slowly evolves into a fast-paced techno grinder, laden with micro shifts and magic twists. The final tune comes from Erik Jabari, a newcomer from the 030 zone, emerging from the Hard Wax peers with haunting modular synth techno – a feverish minimalistic trip of motorized kicks. DJ Pete performed as spiritual guidance on this one. It's floor proven. An overall cachet of "030313" - the small compilation with a huge techno heart.

Landing Spike - Sparkling Comet

We welcome Terence Fletcher to the label for the first release of 2025.

The Göppingen-based artist, more commonly known as Jannik Aßfalg, premieres his first solo EP under his new dub-focused alias. The emerging music enthusiast and co-founder of Diffraction is definitely one to watch not only in terms of production and DJing, but also in the development of great computational tools to enhance these crafts.

For W133 he delivers four highly detailed and funky originals. Starting off on the A side, „Saliva“, a nasty bass roller with dubby water-infused stabs and a break kick pattern that flows underneath the arpeggios. Later on, mesmerizing vocals give the tune a special touch you will have in your head for a long time. „Shifting“ on A2 is a dreamer, melodic pads with long dub delays set the mood to lose yourself in nostalgia.

On the flip side, we get a bit more funky with „Base95“. A house stomper with live guitar played in by Jannik’s friend Valle. Following on B2, we enjoy the deep roller „Dubheim“. Growling basslines and marching percs will defo keep you moving. Last on the record, we are happy to have label mainstay Lask back on remixing duties. She delights us with a slightly more psychedelic version of Shifting, with many glitches and bleepy effects.

The release is due 21.2.2025 digitally and as a limited 25 copies dubplate edition complemented by fully printed cover artworks with photographs by Philipp Roth.

Terence Fletcher - Saliva EP [W133009] - Snippets

To speak to Luca Daniel Schwarz aka LDS about his music is to be enthusiastically guided into a complex world of his own creation: clean and powerful techno which pulses with life from the textured patterns and drum sequences that have fills and accents that would make anyone who's picked up a set of drumsticks envious.

Yet this ecosystem of noise is deceptive; Schwarz's process for making music is very different to how a live drummer would create the same subtlety of performance. Forever researching new technology, Luca got deeply interested in different programming languages, and created a series of probability based music tools for manoeuvring sounds and sequencing.

Manipulating those probabilities takes a skillful alchemy, needing understanding of both musical structure and how the tools he devised work. To return to the drummer analogy, if the drummer is focussed and intentional in the moment of playing, then the method used in LDS tracks is almost diametrically opposed, with all of the intention coming in the assembly of the instruments, potential paths, and gateways; once play is pressed the music flows, following all the rules that were set in advance, not unlike a domino run or Rube Goldberg machine.

And like a domino run, the results are fascinating and, ultimately, fun: staccato vocals pop in and out in 'zipp prompt'; laser-like synths pulse; background noises sweep across the aural plane of the dub techno of 'diff, blockmix' and 'pow' adding texture that brings vitality all-too-easily missed out when complex mathematical processes become entwined with music creation. The high sensitivity to texture and rhythmic detail in Stadion Progg is multiplied further on Jean Redondo's remix - whose track, Hypersonic, was the backbone of 2023's 'yet' compilation on Tresor.

The balance between technology and a sense of fun might also come from the maker; it's not easy to overstate Schwarz's passion for what is now his favourite way to make music, "it never gets boring. There's always a moment of anticipation to see what actually emerges." And the true "power of 2" comes into play when the resulting music can be fed back through the system again and again, potentiating the music in exponential ways.
