Concrete Records is an Italian label based in Rome and has seen contributions from Voices From the Lake, Minilogue, Svreca, Tensal, Echologist aka Brendon Moeller and Cassegrain, and many more, with many releases gaining multiple represses.

Hemissi is a French artist making waves in the scene by being known for his standout releases on quality labels like Jeff Mills' Axis, Slam's Soma, Ben Sims' Symbolism, Bas Mooy's Mord to name only a few.

Starting with "Reminder" its quirky tones and tribal percussion is the perfect warm up. "Thunder Slap" adds a new spin with a more underground feeling of spaced-out tension. "Screw" has a sci-fi style bleeping hook and awesome atmospherics. "Back Fire" uses an abstract and rolling tone as the basis and adds more metallic touches to its warm layers. "Ostralopitek" brings another out-there vibe from its detuned strings and throbbing bassline. "Virtues" brings back a heady take on techno with its swirling and hypnotic elements over a jackin' groove.

COUNTER042
Counterchange Recordings
Backbone
'One'
Release Date: 03.05.24

'One' is the debut album from burgeoning Portuguese techno producer Afonso Esperança aka Backbone @backbone-3

After his 'Gatekeeper' EP (COUNTER033), including the iconic 'Take A Trip' which gathered support far and wide, Backbone stretches out over nine wonderfully detailed and intense tracks.

Exploring the modern techno paradigm, 'One' is full of positively charged, bassline-driven heaters. The founder of the Vinculum Festival in Portugal, Esperança's unique sound design, vocal FX and tension-heavy arrangements carve a clear course from the heart to the dancefloor. From the tingling ambient intro of 'Mundo Novo' straight into the addictive 'Press To Regenerate' its clear there's countless details to discover forged into these tracks.

Counterchange founder Inland straps in on 'Generation Gap', one of the early highlights of the album, with its surging industrial pulse and funky forward momentum.

The stunning broken beats and bleeps of 'There Is No Spoon' hit hard and dark while remaining elegant and certainly not over-driven. Every track on the LP is a microcosm of Backbone's kinetic techno manifesto - he infuses a rich stereo image, textured crunch and silky bass-end bounce on stand-out tracks like 'Strike A Dose', 'Minucioso' and 'No Casket Space'.

Bringing the album to a close with the night-time drive of 'Ride The Snake', Backbone summons the spirits of his mountainous home region in a hypnotising, shamanic ritual for the closing sets.

RELEASE DATE 08/07/2024

It’s been a long while since our last Tonal compilation, five years to be exact, and it’s also been a long while since label boss Leandro Gamez’s last track on the label, so we are double happy.

This mini compilation features long time label veterans, like the aforementioned Leandro Gámez, Bando, Groof and Deepnaut. All four artists are a fundamental part of techno history locally in Spain and worldwide, so they don’t need further introduction just check discogs and you’ll get the picture.

Release starts with Bando and his track Garaje Hermético, a proper complex and funk techno exercise made of rugged FM synth layers over a shuffled groove, constantly evolving and mutating a guaranteed dancefloor burner.

Next comes Groof with Strom playing with industrial flavored broken rhythms spiced with metallic FM synths and occasional bleeps. Additional percussive layered heavily reverberated complete the equation.

Deepnaut provides his personal touch on techno with Freaq FM, always blending harmonies with hypnosis in a rolling chord infused number, galactic and classic at same time.

Release closes with Leandro Gámez and Dengue, shuffled grooves, mental sequences, vocal snippets and classic chords in a timeless techno workout.
