Soma welcome the debut album from the ever-growing roster of youthful talent as Lewis Fautzi drops The Gare Album, named in homage to The Gare Club, Porto, where Lewis made his discovery of Techno. A bold 4 track single debut gave rise to the album process midway through 2013 and under the careful supervision of Soma, Lewis has provided a definitive peak in his sound cultivated on the back of years of studio work. A collection of deep, dark and twisted techno awaits heralding a coming of age for the Portuguese native.

A droning, industrial vibe is immediate from the outset as Signal crackles into existence giving way to the cavernous UBV-76 with its concrete swathes of noise. High intensity pings form the depths give a sense of what is to come. Intriguing, broken beats deepen proceeding as Lewis takes things to The Other Side of Reality. A momentarily respite before he begins to open things up. Blocker takes the tempo up a notch with a thumping kick and looped out chaotic synths that slowly build the tension. This brooding atmosphere is carried on into the tweeked out and mesmerizing Sick, the punishing, bleeped workout of Range and the relentless, discord of Loudness. By this point Lewis has really worked up into a frenzy. Tight percussive workouts keep this album firing on all cylinders. A short interlude is offered as Opaque drifts quickly through the chaos of this straight to the floor album. Through the darkness, a glimmer of Hope shines through, albeit a cold and fleeting techno version as Lewis leaves you bare and bleeding. Yet more dance floor action as the elasticated synths of Binary (recently remixed by Spanish techno don Oscar Mulero) tear through the backbone of the album. By far Lewis’ most destructive track. The static buzz of Psychiatric is a welcome come down from the headiness of the previous track allowing Lewis to lead us through the black hole, ending on the Other Planet. It’s swirling, vortex like pads sliced open with subtle percussive, other worldly bleeps. A fitting end to this hyperactive techno journey.

A definite maturity in production shines through on this fantastic LP from Fautzi as he creates a cold and calculating output, clearly focused on the future. The Gare Album has allowed Fautzi to express himself fully through electronic music, a task that he has taken to whole-heartedly.

8. Lewis Fautzi - Hope [Soma Records]

Tracklist:
1- Total Absence
2- Paranoia
3- Ground State
4- Uncertainty

Portuguese techno master Lewis Fautzi returns home after a while with his trademark rugged and solid techno.

For this release he provides four cuts of heavily pressurized dj tools, starting with Total Absence, starting with a solid groove spiced with bass enforced frequencies, the intensity grows as the bars go by using additional percussive layers and electrified drones floating over the beat.

Paranoia comes next, clean and solid drums, elastic sequences and high pitched atmospheres collide in another mental workout.

On the B side, Ground State provides another interpretation, in a more shuffled approach in the rhythms, precisely distorted and with the aid of a bleepy detail that appears from beyond the spectrum.

Closing the Ep, Uncertainty is the most rugged exercise in this release, once again distortion is wisely used and the approach is more industrial than the previous cuts.

One more proof of the expertise of this fundamental producer in today’s serious techno scene.

End of Perception is a Berlin-based techno label co-owned by Viels and Francesco Della Sata, which has featured music by Takaaki Itoh, Ness, Brendon Moeller, Deepbass, and ORBE, amongst others.

Providing the next EP titled 'Destino,' the label head Viels showcases four new and original works.

Originating from near Milan, Viels is an experienced DJ and producer who has played all around Europe alongside DVS1, DJ Nobu, Setaoc Mass, Steve Bicknell, and many more, while also holding a residency at the Acquario event in Milan.

His standout production style has graced imprints such as Bas Mooy's Mord, Oscar Mulero's Warm Up, Psyk's Non Series, Svreca's Semantica, and Edit Select Records, as well as his appearances on End of Perception, and includes collaboration releases with fellow Italian, Pyramidal Decode.

Beginning with "Primo Respiro" and its an ethereal sound, rich in hypnotics and drenched in atmosphere. Cyclical pulses are an underbelly to a staggered kick drum and tense percussion in this heads down groove.

"Movimento Tellurico" has a more upbeat sound yet covered in mystery. Sparse sweeps, bubbling textures, and delayed cymbals create a perfect melting pot of an alluring dystopian aura.

Next up, "Incompleti" turns on the dub vibe, with a satisfying feeling that a subterranean exploration is underfoot. Warm modular bleeps and flickering effects combine with shuffling elements for a deep and spacey trip.

"Destino" is the title track and closer, opting for a more dance floor approach with a raw sound. Using its driving yet restrained rhythm and illusive spirit for a quality sound, it delivers a mesmerising mood.

PREMIERE: Viels - Incompleti [EOPEP007]

Ana Rs makes her debut on Float Records with Not Yet Born, But Heard, a four-track EP showcasing her distinct approach to techno.

@lewisfautzi | Disasters On The Horizon EP

[SOMA453D]

1. Eerie
2. Eerie (Sleeparchive Remix)
3. Horizontz
4. Horizontz (Sigha Remix)
4. Mental Circuits
The ever reliable Lewis Fautzi returns to Soma with his furious brand of deep and hypnotic Techno. We also welcome debuts on the label in the form of two stunning remixes by international Techno stars, Sleeparchive & Sigha, who both turn in very unique takes on Fautzi's work.

Fautzi's Eerie opens the EP with deep pulsating rhythms and a real tripped out feel as each element of the track synchronises to create that perfect Techno tool. Berlin's Sleeparchive delivers an immense and ferocious version of Eerie, turning the deep original into a wild, mechanical workout. The darker vibes continue as Fautzi unleashes Horizontz with its stuttered percussive workout that punctuates rasping white noise and growling synths which modulate effortlessly through the track creating the desired tension. Our Circula Sound boss Sigha debuts on Soma and his version of Horizontz takes on a whole new life as his more subtle and melodic approach feeds a powerful and carefully crafted beast. Fautzi rounds off his latest Soma EP with Mental Circuits, once again going down a deep and murky path as understated rhythms through the synth and percussive work build the pressure.

Fautzi is calmly climbing into the higher echelons of the Techno scene and with releases like this, its clear to see why.
