Luckily, we still have music… Laurent Garnier's COD3 QR returns in May with a stellar four-track vinyl release alongside an accompanying digital version. This digital releases features mixes of K' Alexi Shelby's "Flame" (the original version is exclusive to the vinyl release), by Laurent Garnier and the man himself, plus tracks by French wizard Marc Bedikian and one of COD3 QR's star players, Squal G.

K' Alexi Shelby is a prominent figure in electronic music and with a career spanning decades, he's established a significant influence on House and Techno. Throughout his career he's worked with many well-known artists and remixed tracks that are now key pieces. The cultivation of his massive musical catalogue has overflowed into albums and the three labels he heads. It's also led to legendary collaborations with artists such as The Pet Shop Boys, Robert Owens, Kenny Dixon, Roy Davis Jr., Maurice Joshua, Terry Hunter, Joe Smooth, Steve Silke Hurley, Tyree Cooper, Ron Trent, Glenn Underground, Larry Heard, DJ Pierre, Carl Craig, Felix da Housecat, Marshall Jefferson, Will Smith and countless others. Already respected around the world as a true underground House legend, it will be cemented further on listening to his deep and sexy track "Flame". Presented here are Laurent Garnier's stunning edit to open the EP, while Alexi's Klassik Deep version closes it out.

A geek at heart with a passion for music, Marc has forged his sound universe over the decades. He grew up listening to the melodies of Prince, before being drawn into the Hip-Hop culture of the '90s. At the dawn of the 2000s, he plunged into the bubbling world of electronic music, a revelation that marked a decisive turning point in his career. From Detroit Techno to Richie Hawtin's experimentation, Josh Wink's raw energy, Gary Beck's power, James Holden's finesse and Laurent Garnier's eclecticism, his influences are many and shape his musical identity. With "Qui Peut Le Plus", he pays homage to these influences, blending hypnotic rhythms, deep textures and characteristic rises in tension. His approach both in the studio and behind the decks is a perpetual quest: to thrill, surprise and convey the raw emotion of electronic music.

Producer and manager of Slates Records, Squal G is a French artist who has been passionate about electronic music since the '90s. Initially he practised his art as a DJ, but a few years later finally turned to machines and computers. This enabled him to progress with his production and remixes. He never tries to stick to a single style, which, depending on his inspiration, can lead him to be more or less hard, while remaining in the spirit of techno. To accompany his track, "Parallel Sound" on the vinyl is the retro metallic and driving Techno of "Life Reaction" on the digital.

After a number of acclaimed tracks and EPs, the southern newcomer on the French electronic scene is releasing his first album on COD3 QR, Laurent Garnier's label. A full-length album on which the producer establishes himself as the newcomer to watch in a techno revival.

The rise to fame has been a gradual one for the producer from the south of France, and the release of "Echoes" could well have a resounding impact on the French electronic music scene, which is beginning to take on a new lease of life. Passionate musician, head on shoulders and sharp ear, Voltaire has prepared the release of this long format with COD3 QR well. After several EPs and appearances on the label's famous compilations since 2021, plus a remix in 2023 of Laurent Garnier's "Tales From The Real World" that allowed a glimpse at his potential, "Echoes" now allows full appreciation of all of this musician's qualities.

The gradual disappearance of the album format versus the digital single has not dampened the determination of this artist and the label to impose a singular artistic vision on an LP: "After having produced a number of tracks, I was absolutely determined to create a story with all the pieces on this album", assures Voltaire. "I wanted to compose something that I don't hear anymore in today's music, something different from dancefloor techno. Echoes fully crystallises this desire."

The emotional eclecticism of this album comes as no surprise to listeners who have followed Voltaire's previous releases. "Since I started out, I've produced house, techno and electro tracks... this eclecticism is part of my personality as a musician. I love all facets of electronic music and I want to remain open to all influences."

"Echoes" features lush, lysergic techno (the phenomenal "Detune", "Echoes", "Human" and "Unity", reminiscent of Border Community), liberating forays into IDM ("Connection Lost", "I’ll See You Again", "Singular Pursuit", whose dreamy melody will inevitably bring Plaid to mind), catchy electro-techno (the aptly named "Dance!", "Wave Function", a model of mental techno), raw dancefloor accents and even a symphonic anthem to conclude (the luminous "Voltaire").

Through this frenzied eclecticism, Voltaire intends to put his signature: "the link between all the songs of the album is the precision of the rhythms, the choice of melodies, the metallic sound of cymbals…". Nourished by the electro of origins (Kraftwerk, Juan Atkins' Detroit, Robert Hood or Dopplereffekt) and the profusion of electro from the 2000s and 2010s, Voltaire is under the influence of an extremely productive retro-mania. With "Echoes", he offers a brilliant synthesis, in the precious setting of an irreproachable production.

Deluka makes his SCI+TEC debut with "Paris Connection" and "Shake," two raw, floor-driven cuts shaped by years in Berlin's underground. Italian-born and now a key figure in the city's vinyl scene, Deluka brings the same gritty precision that defines his No Signal label and record store. A longtime admirer of Dubfire since his early sets in Napoli, this release marks a full-circle moment—intense, personal, and rooted in techno history.
