After his Sungate debut in 2020, Deano presents Curveball 2.0. His new contribution follows on perfectly from his previous release as he continues to display the diversity of music styles that influence him. With a combination of warm, dubbed out and energetic techno, this package contains 3 originals and 2 outstanding remixes - one from Detroit icon Luke Hess and the other from Dutch duo D&S.

Brendon Moeller, also known as the echologist, is a key figure in the techno scene we love. He has been distilling his trippy spaced out repetitive dub beats on many iconic labels for many years. A friend of the Knotweed family since the start, Brendon created this four tracker especially for us, developing further his own vision of techno, while respecting the aesthetic of the label. Thank you so much Brendon for your support throughout the years, long live the echologist! 

We are celebrating 10 years of Knotweed Records, exploring different shades of techno.

Junodownload Review:
As part of Knotweed's ten-year celebrations, Echologist aka Brendon Moeller delivers a dynamic dub techno workout. "Knot Safe" revolves around mesmerising chords that swirl and sway over a stepping, metallic rhythm, while on "Dub Knot", Moeller goes into a more abstract direction, with glitchy percussion underpinning warped samples and reverberating effects. "Knot Twist" sees the veteran producer push farther in this experimental direction, as brooding tones and muffled vocals conjure up a hypnotic soundscape, while on "Double Knot", he makes a return of sorts to the dance floor, as doubled up beats and a broken rhythm support layer upon layer of hypnotic tones.

OECUS Premiere // Jamaica Suk

Extract from "Orthorhombic EP" [T3R004] @thethirdroom_t3r
Release date: October 8th, 2021

The Stone Techno series continues. We are presenting the third release of this beautiful collaboration alongside with the Ruhr Museum Foundation and the Orthorhombic EP marks a special occasion. You may ask yourself why? Because the whole project can be also a door opener for talented artists such as our Stone Techno Challenge winner Emil Baghino from Paris, who has delivered the best track amongst more than 170 submissions.
On the other hand, we have again some stellar artists on the bill. The four-tracker A-Side is reserved for not one but two fresh Berlin based duos: it starts with some tight-punching breaks by the one and only FJAAK and leads into the second track, a driven techno tool by Inhalt der Nacht & Tham, which definitely deserves the term “post-industrial machine music”. On the B-Side the techno train stays on the rail with deep hypnotic vibes by Jamaica Suk and last but not least, a real-effective dance floor banger by Emil Baghino.
We hope you enjoy the tracks and be ready for the fourth and last release of the Stone Techno Series for this year.

Release Date: 17.10.2021
OHM Series continues to round up some of the best and the brightest within the dub techno scene.
Side A begins with blissful and atmospheric journey by Alessandro Crimi, a Switzerland-based producer who has released on various labels and runs the vinyl-only Waehlscheibe. It‘s a diaphanous ambient dub techno approach textured together with tactical precision. Next we move from the softer side of techno to a more banging one with the French producer Benales. With the assistance of 909‘s and dark dub chord, it‘s impossible not to be intrigued.
The flipside starts with a hot prospect: a debut solo release by a Canadian producer named Lakefkt. It‘s dub-driven and thumping at the same time – a delicate, perfect blend. The legendary Outlaw label owner Matthew Oh wraps up the release with an ethereal dub techno voyage. Dubby chords, graceful pads and nifty drums make this one into something special.
OHM Series is the brainchild of the establised Copenhagen-based techno artist OHM (Bjarnar Jónsson) and was founded in 2021.

Organica001 is the first delivery of the project which corresponds to a 10 tracks compilation with artists from different parts of the globe who were connected purely by organic communication and their mutual vision in topics like sound, life and community; Different locations that give life to a wide variety of compositions fully of sensations and feelings. In addition, Oceanic visual artist Rochelle Maree contributed with her multi-award piece “Weathered”, capturing each texture and detail of the natural spiral in a completely organic painting which translate even trough the screen, every feeling and breath of the ocean itself, giving sense to one of the multiple lectures that the concept Technologia Organica can be interpreted.

From beautiful and natural sound landscapes to obscurity and mental hypnotism, the pieces fits with a variety of emotions, sensations and light for the listener to locate itself in different states of mind trough the journey.

Organica001 will be released in November 18th on all digital platforms; Also a short run of limited edition Cassettes hand numbered in Jewel Case will be available exclusively released via Bandcamp.
