Ahead of their highly anticipated LP, Amazing Records owners and Driving Forces Booking artists MiniCoolBoyz release 3 tracks that serve as a tasty appetizer to what’s to come next: we find them here mixing genres, re-defining styles and confusing people expectations, always bringing their trademark 100% signature. “2AM” stands out as what could be called House-influenced Techno: a total banger, the sound is drenched in atmospheric Disco Music vocals and Chicago underground synths; “Warm Step” is a main room analog stomp, while the mighty “Rachel’s Dream”’s obscure mammoth kick leads onto creepy hallucinogenic melodies. Definitely something to keep your ears ready for.

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.

Zadig / Tape 1 / CRF010 (A1)

It’s time, return from the summer holidays is done, our artists bring us their amazing compositions.
To begin the chapter of 2015/2016 DJ Saint Pierre presents: Spartacus.
This release is a turning point in his career, he has recently redesigned his studio and acquiring new machines, the first fruit is harvested: Spartacus.
Two very deep Techno tracks resolutely keeping the pressure of the Dancefloor always on the high. The part 1 with some heavy rhythm and psychedelic arpeggio is a really modern techno composition. At the end of the first refrain you are conquered.
The part 2 is like a Tools tracks, composed without Drum, favorable for an intro or outro, Spartacus part 2 is a travel to your subconscious. Listening in our room, it’s bewitched us, we were won over by this power and pressure without hearing a sound of kick or other drum.
Four remixes was done for this release and it’s an honor for us to welcome D’jamency vs Oliver X, DJ Hi-Shock, M23 and Ben Egger.
We wish you a good listening in this technoïdale captivating world.

DJ Saint Pierre - Spartacus part 1

“Man Worships Power” is the first in a small series of joint releases between Enemy Records and Emmanuel’s ARTS Records. Like rare split EPs from record labels in the past, each label takes control of one side of the vinyl for a double-sided release. With high mutual admiration between both labels, it was inevitable that a project like this was bound to happen. For this special occasion, we offer a full-sleeve cover with amazing photography from Sander Meisner.

On the first release, label owners Dustin Zahn and Emmanuel each picked two of their favorite tracks from each other. “Bark Like a Dog…” has already received regular play from Truncate and “Cargo” has been a secret weapon among DJs such as Zahn and Rodhad for the better part of a year.

Slam | Clouds – Reciprocal Exchange (Soma 433)

Clouds – Complete Control (Slam Remix)
Slam – Stepback (Clouds Remix)

A double whammy of Scottish Techno as two of the biggest names in todays scene collide in one alright bang as Slam & Clouds take on each other with devastating outcomes. Originally a hit for Clouds in 2013, Compete Control is given Slams expert remix treatment and turned into one peak time burner whilst remaining true to the originals machine gun snares and ominous vocal sample! Clouds delve back into Slams extensive back catalogue, bringing back the monstrous Stepback. Clouds revitalise it for the modern age, coming at it all guns blazing and delivering a broken beat, snare driven beast
