BLACK MESA - Drawing inspiration from the legendary Half-Life video game, Black Mesa plunges you into a gritty, suspense-filled landscape. Industrial textures and subterranean low-end grooves evoke the feeling of traversing dangerous, awe-inspiring terrain under an alien sky.

"A Broken Clock Is Right Twice A Day" EP is comprised of 7 tracks recorded in Kazan and Moscow during various sessions. Some of them go back as early as 2014 and everything is composed on two 8-track samplers. 

Alina Izolenta and Kamil Ea were born in the USSR, so the origin of the acronym PTU is embedded in everyday life of a country which no longer exists. The duo spent their childhood in Siberia and on Volga, and their salad days in music schools and early clubs of their respective home cities. 

Back then accessing the internet was only possible via pre-paid cards that came in envelopes. Music — via pirate CDs and endlessly slow mp3 downloads. Friendships would stem from copying music from hard drive to hard drive. The name PTU came to life in the middle of 00s, in a rented apartment, literally the last building in some steet on the outskirts, over impromptu synth sessions with friends.

BNJMN presents Body Reflections Pt.2 - the second step in his new, subdued and intricate sonic direction.

The EP opens with “Undulations”, an emotional number on which delayed rhythmic elements gradually introduce minor chords. “Lyra” is a slow burning march, offset with an offbeat clap, giving the track a stron sense of decay and disorder. 

On the flip, "Earth Shock” is an atmosphere laden piece starting with a sombre, slow melody that gets increasingly drowned out by harsh, industrial textures. The piece eventually reaches power electronics territory before returning to its onset. 

“Severance” is a tense affair. Layered synths meet stuttered kicks. Metallic stabs come puncturing and piercing rimshots provide rhythmic clarity. The EP closes with the fluttering and delightfully ghastly "Ghost Faction". 

Body Reflections Pt.2 is deeply illustrative of BNJMN’s ability for creating nuanced and delicately balanced layers, and a culmination of his vast experience.

Anagram Label follow up their ‘Phasing Faces’ releases with remixes from Efdemin, Lapien, Ryan James Ford and Terrence Dixon under his Population One moniker this December.

Released earlier this year, ‘Phasing Faces’ was a two-part series featuring Anetha, Elad Magdasi, Mathame and Maukook, not to mention label founders Sinfol and Octual. Anagram have now tapped up four reputable names for a heavyweight remix package; Dial regular Efdemin, fast rising MDR and Answer Code Request act Ryan James Ford, Dutch producer Lapien aka one half of Delsin’s Artefakt, as well as renowned Detroit artist Terrence Dixon appearing as Population One.

Ostgut Ton’s Efdemin opens the package with his immersive remix of Sinfol ‘Trembling’, incorporating pulsating drones, echoing effects and ethereal synths. Anetha’s ‘Acid Train’ then gets reimagined by SHUT founder Ryan James Ford – the Canadian combines thudding kicks with mesmerising atmospherics as metallic percussion skips throughout.

Adding further depth to the release, Rekids and Mistress Recordings artist Lapien remixes Elad Magdasi ‘Two Floors’ to generate a smooth aesthetic complete with serene nuances and soulful vocal coos before
Rush Hour and Metroplex’s Population One ties everything together with a deep house reinterpretation of Octual's ‘Dark Sky’.

'Vitriol' EP is a carefully crafted amalgamation of dark, moody and atmospheric techno. Our pick "Ockra" is by far our favourite cut from the release, offering a low slung four/four kick, white noise and a spine tingling synth line. File alongside Rrose and Function.

SSTROM - Ockra [Rösten]

My label Stockholm LTD turned 15 recently, so I decided it was time for a little celebration. I'm happy and grateful for the past, and I can’t wait to see what will happen next. Here's how it all started: 

Södermalm, Stockholm 1999. The capacity of the store was probably less than 20. The cold and industrial-tinged interior featured ash grey walls, rust-free steel accents, and a magnificently elevated cashier desk. The ceiling was an impressive 3.5 meters with two massive speakers hanging above the cashier. Shelves and bins stocked with vinyl, tapes, and magazines covered the walls. In the storefront, you would find the listening stations with turntables that sit nicely inside their desks. While you listened to the week’s new releases, you’d be treated to a view of the blooming streets of Södermalm as people rushed by. There was a small sign with operating hours in the window which also said “TECHNO / ELECTRO. Welcome to Illegal Stockholm!” 

Illegal Stockholm was founded by Tobias Von Hofsten and myself in late 1998. It became our home, blood, sweat, and tears for a good 4-5 years. I was only 18 years old at the time and still in school when we opened its doors. I couldn’t think of anything cooler or more fun than hanging out, talking and listening to music all day and night. After we closed the shop at night. We would hang in the ‘office’ which was the store’s back room. I forged life life-long friendships and gave birth to the idea of Stockholm LTD. I wanted to show people a slightly different side of our scene. The original idea was to keep the recording artist secret with no names announced on the release, but the idea fell flat as people figured it out the day of our first release. Since then, the concept of the label has changed a few times but the core idea and desire remains the same: releasing timeless electronic music. 

Stockholm LTD has stood the test of time, it’s not that many labels that stay current for that long. This is only possible with the help of all the artists I’ve been working with over the years. To say I am extremely grateful is an understatement! 

With this in mind, let’s celebrate the label’s 15th anniversary with a 5 part release! 15Y contains remixes by some of my favorite artists at the moment. They have all picked and reworked something from my part of the label’s back catalog. The series will stretch out over a set of 5 vinyl singles with a special anniversary sleeve and a beautiful engraving made by graphic designer Håkan Ullberg.

Throughout his career, Roger Semsroth has followed a deep intuition for experimentation in sound, wrapping club music around eerie microtonal motifs and industrial sensibilities. This new work for Tresor takes a step forward, as the first true techno album from Sleeparchive, where his previous LPs have exhibited themselves more conceptually, or under different names and his Nord Vest label.

Semsroth has been active in electronic music since the late 90s. He received initial attention first for his electro productions under the alias Skanfrom and the 80s minimal synth inspired Television Set. These projects echoed his love for these sounds, which the East Berliner had steadily immersed himself with after the end of the GDR. Upon hearing the bleeps of Mika Vainio and Plastikman, he began to engage with his strain of techno. Over the last decade, he has focused on his Sleeparchive alias, which dates back to 2004. Alongside close friend DJ Pete, he performs live techno as TR-101. His relationship with Tresor began in 2011, first releasing the Ronan Point EP and following up with the crucial A Man Dies In The Street series in 2013.

With this new album, Sleeparchive's impact on the techno sound is ever more relevant. Awaking in constant locomotion, locked-in, unrelenting and dry. Sleeparchive’s churning loops etch visions of tight minimalism at times densely frenetic and others serenely galactic. This predilection continues throughout the four sides on the album, eschewing conventional arrangement styles with gradual probabilistic change. Tracks such as 'Needle' and 'Peccant' offer up precise, sinewy techno. 'Leave' recalls the Detroit sound of Terrence Dixon, with its cascading synth tones and droning atmospheres. The album closes with a different version of 'Trust' to that found on last year’s Revised Recordings EP released on Tresor, with its now-familiar nerve-inducing pizzicato strings even more at the fore with its mechanic delivery.
