Knotweed Records Releases

A few years ago, Axis Alpha’s strong relationship to hypnotic rhythms began to take shape. In his latest addition for Báze podcast series he shows what hypnotic techno means to him as a whole. 19 carefully 
selected tracks best match his vision of this style ranging from deep sounds to darker atmospheres. From the very beginning it invites you to join a journey full of feelings while showcasing the variety of sounds, patterns and rhythms in this interesting genre of music.

Axis Alpha’s story starts at one of the Polygon’s event nights. Based on the immersive experience there he decided to start djing and mixing techno. He used to play dub techno, minimal, house and even a little bit of disco or faster trancey tunes but it was the hypnotic techno which slowly began to take precedence over others in his work. In 2020 he helped forming RUSH27 label that has organized several events so far and where he was a resident DJ. During 2021 he was a part of the infamous Čičinek II crew and you could also see him performing in places like Cross club, Kave or Nero.

Juno Records Review:

"The ever-prolific Brendon Moeller returns with a third EP for Knotweed under his Echologist alias, treading the line between glitchy minimal, propulsive techno and dubwise immersion with flair and poise. There are some powerful, deeply submerged kicks to be enjoyed on 'Activation', but they're not just deployed as standard. On 'Concentrate' they might be more prominent, but still there's a sense of confident restraint in which Moeller can create captivating energy and a full-frequency experience without resorting to obvious tactics. For those who favour something a little more stimulating and subtle from their techno experience, this EP has everything you need."

Artscope Radio #49 : Medulla Oblongata

Recently, efforts are being made to achieve harmony between techno and drum & bass rhythms. However, a small number of people have been attempting this for quite some time. His mix is ​​like a sharp and sophisticated blade that focuses years of past attempts into one delicate spot. Deadly and beautiful.

Medulla Oblongata is a discreet yet emerging Dj who blossoms in his musical biotope between ambient and a mental and hypnotic techno. His techno sets are an invitation to an immersive journey where dancers can forget themselves. We could see him working lately with the Château Perché Festival (as a DA/Stage manager or Dj) and their secret and uncompromising side projects and famous venues of the east of France such as KALT (Strasbourg, Fr) or Ostra Club (Nancy, Fr) where he can express himself without boundaries.

With other weirdos he also co-founded the collective TRÊVE gathering artists from different horizons around ambient and visual arts in order to propose dreamlike and contemplative events. His ambient sets become hybridized with tape loops, droning machines, cassettes and modular synth.

Artscope Radio #49 : Medulla Oblongata

An Italian techno duo and one live visuals based in Berlin, Nothing Is Real is a collaboration between long-time bass music producers, D-Operation Drop and Spacedrome and Omar Eox with a fundamentally clean-cut focus on the live facets of techno music and digital arts taking care of building up and producing 3D Video Mapping.

Drawing on early influences from sub-heavy sound system culture, through the energetic UK styles of the past 20 years, and on to the pulsating techno scene in their new homecity, Nothing Is Real fuses a vast musical inspiration and with years of production experience to create dynamic, raw and driving techno.

Having spent most waking hours since the project’s on-set in early 2016, building elements, writing tracks, videos and enhancing their live performance.

Junodownload Review: "Leghau aka Cedric Rebagliato returns to Knotweed after last year's Criticism with this deeply atmospheric release. "Curse" resounds to layered textures and is powered by a pulsating, rolling groove, while on "Moving Walls" the French producer delivers a track that has echoes of sometime Knotweed contributor Terrence Dixon. Repetitive riffs and outer space tones unravel over a sinewy groove that is designed for the latest dance floor hours. "Reactivity" explores a slightly more atonal sound, but here too echoes of Dixon prevail thanks to the repetitive tones. Last but not least is the title track, which sounds inspired by IDM, albeit copper-fastened to a limber dance floor rhythm"
