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.

Plates is collection of 8 prime cuts, selected and presented by Main Course's very own BOT. House music is what drove him to start DJing so many years back, and has been the main inspiration behind what we present, as a label, and individually as DJs. You'll see some familiar names on the track list, as these tunes were hand picked from from our good friends, and exciting new talents we've found along the way. The goal was to compile an album of strong house tracks that  bring something unique to the table, while at the same time avoiding the current cliches of the genre. We excitedly present Plates, a collection of different flavours and ingredients, studio fresh from our talented roster of world class chefs!

Kid Kamillion & Jesse Slayter - Warehouse

Last year's '4' album saw Mr. Luke Vibert's first venture as Kerrier District in over a decade. And a successful venture it was at that – with the album becoming into an essential long player, and ranking as one of Bleep's top albums of 2015, Now, to mark Hypercolour's 50th single release, four of electronic music's heavyweights have brought forward three strong reworkings of 4: Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbauer, Head High (aka Shed) and RA Best Live Act of 2015, KiNK – whose remix comes up trumps in our eyes.

In his take on album favourite, "Techno Disco", KiNK deploys a spacey synth melody and a Reese-style bassline – transforming it into an energetic peaktime track, with elements not falling sonically far from a UR record.

Stunning start of the Heldeep DJ Tools EP series. Part 1 features none less than three blazing house tunes, kicking off with Billy Kenny & Aaron Jackson dropping a vocally charged groove where cool effects and twisted bass sounds take you to the deep end of the floor. 

Speaking of Bass with a capital B, track two on this EP is delivered by Dutch DJ Bart B More, dropping catchy break beats over straight up house music, heavy on the bass and building one climax above the other - you’ll be going Down with this! Following this rollercoaster it’s Kyle Watson feat. Pop Art taking things deeper again, with a subtle groove, delayed effects and mesmerizing vocal breakdown. It’s a brilliant deep house tune, just like this full EP says a lot on all the sounds where dance music is going - Heldeep showing you where it’s at!

Heldeep DJ Tools EP Part 1 will be out on February 29.

Billy Kenny & Aaron Jackson - Right Here (Out Now)

Last spotted on the label just two months ago, Bruno Furlan has made such a strong impression at Dirtybird Headquarters heÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s already back with two more premium productions. Hell, heÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s made such an impression theyÃ¢â‚¬â„¢re calling him Ã¢â‚¬ËœDirtyboyÃ¢â‚¬â„¢.

This time BrunoÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s brought a wingman: Kyle Watson. Last spotted on the labelÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s festive 7 Days Of Dirtybird project just over a year ago (and featured on Simma Black, This AinÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t Bristol and Bunny Tiger since), the South African artistÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s signature complements BrunoÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s skills toe-to-toe as the two dance a provocative techfunk dance.

Ã¢â‚¬ËœMarshmallowsÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ was made with Dirtybird in mind. Duly road tested by VonStroke, the click-slap drums, bulbous postcode-exclusive bassline and rippling, rising chords sealed the deal on the spot. Ã¢â‚¬ËœBut Why?Ã¢â‚¬â„¢ plays the consummate track two: Fusing a snake-charming hook, a rubber ball bassline, the pendulum hook and twisted vocal percussive elements, it asks way more questions than it answers. 

Do you have any questions?

Bruno Furlan & Kyle Watson - But Why [PREVIEW]

LOCO DICE - DEFINITION (NIC FANCIULLI REMIX)

<p>In the same vein as her recently launched MOOD imprint, Believe is suited to a number of atmospheres and settings. Across the nine original productions and one collaboration with label boss Adam Beyer, Nicole has crafted a sonically diverse long-player of sounds which draw on the plethora of styles electronic music has to offer. From her accustomed techno to twisted house and everything in-between, the stylistic variety on offer means cuts Believe will easily feature in more intimate settings and big-room venues alike. Believe features a host of tracks aimed squarely at the clubs. From the moody Movin On, the bass-heavy Do Your Thing, to the industrial techno grooves on Come And Lay and the hypnotic chanting vocal on Get On It, the techno-aficionados will not be disappointed with what is sublime set of cuts that will no doubt destroy any dance-floor. </p>

<p>In contrast however, there are more intimate moments to be found. For example the rhythmically entrancing yet uplifting Fly With You, to Liberum Spirita with its mazy ethereal breakdown, and the synth-heavy percussive builder Lumière Tamisée. Nicoles further flexes her production muscle with the stripped back dub-flavours of Big Love With No Apology, and a robotic groove-laden funk on the standout Can I Get Some. Believe delivers a consummate body of work with which Nicoles considerable abilities in the studio are clear for all to hear. A wide-range of sounds that is sure to appeal to the idiosyncratic tastes of the various sub-sections of electronic music community. Furthermore, it lives up to the high-standards of previous Drumcode long-players and is an engrossing and impressive debut; and one that offers a smooth segue into the next chapter of an already exciting career.</p>
