The next release on Cultivated Electronics Ltd shines a light on some of the fresh talent emerging from within the Electro scene across this double-vinyl 12" which will be pressed on balck and colour vinyl editions.

IMOGEN has enjoyed a whirlwind rise, and her reputation as one of the most talented newcomers is well recognised. Her discography includes releases on Earwiggle, Shared Meanings and fabric where she is also a resident DJ, and presents a monthly radio show on NTS. She opens the compilation with the tough beats and twisted melodies of 'Anatta'.

ARMEC (Robbie Mecrow) is an Electro and Acid producer from Manchester who has already impressed with releases on Nebulae, Echocentric, Further Electronix and most notably 20/20 Vision. His beat-led track 'Acute' delivers a serious punch with plenty of sub-bass.

Russia's SERGEY TIMOSHOV is the promoter and resident DJ at Warehouse, held weekly at the Propaganda club in Moscow. Here he utilises that experience in fine style for his club-ready 'Electro Beats 1'.

UK artists OBSERV and CYPHON collaborated on their debut EP for Gunfinger Food last year, but here they deliver 1 track apiece. Obzerv brings pure destruction on his tumultuous track 'Octro'. While Cyphon, known for his live hardware sets, supporting artists like Assembler Code, Radioactive Man and Afrodeutsche, plus releases on International Chrome and Blind Allies brings dark phunk to 'Nightmare'.

KHALILIAN is probably best known as one half of US duo Joonam (with Elon Admony) who have been self-releasing on their Balagan label for the last few years. 'Valda' pitches things down with Detroit-esque chords and a deep, subterranean atmosphere.

FAZACK is a 21 year old DJ/Producer from Cardiff now based in Bristol. Better known as a DJ, he's spent the past 9 year collecting records and garnering inspiration from all aspects of dance music. For the last 3 years he's focused on production and draws on cosmic influences for his contribution, 'Weightless'.

LINDSAY GREEN is one half of Co-Accused, long-standing residents of Glasgow’s prolific underground club scene via their club nights in Paisley’s Club 69 and the launch of their Co-Accused Records label in 2021. Going solo for the closing track, 'Creepin' bridges to gaps between Electro, Techno and Acid.

Bass Agenda Recordings began in 2013, with its debut release, the compilation entitled ‘The Fight Against the Mundane’. That CD and digital release featured many of the guests that had appeared on the Bass Agenda Radio show in its first year, such as w1b0, The Exaltics, Sync24, Scape One, The Hidden Persuader, and Alavux.

Since 2013 the label has put out over 100 releases on digital, vinyl, CD, and USB formats spanning the various nuanced styles in the Electro genre, and Techno too. Just like the radio show, the focus of the Bass Agenda label is on exploring the wide range of sounds out there and doing so by releasing music by brand new talents, established artists doing new things, and some of the Electro genre’s biggest names.

The label has been championed since its inception by Dave Clarke and has grown over the years to become a regular source of tracks for home DJs, podcasters, magazines, and some the world’s biggest names, including Juan Atkins, DJ Stingray, Helena Hauff, UMEK, Alienata, and many more.
In 2020 Bass Agenda Recordings curated and released CAREBOT$, a massive 100+ tracks compilation raising money for NHS Charities Together and Médecins Sans Frontières Covid-19 initiatives. So far, the CAREBOT$ has raised over £10,000. After this project Andy Barton, who runs all things Bass Agenda, decided the label would take a break. The label will return, but no specific date or plans have been made as yet. The Bass Agenda Radio Show continues and broadcasts on www.deepspaceradio.com in Detroit. Guest on the show have included Anthony Rother, The Hacker, Juan Atkins, Detroit in Effect, Dez Williams, Jensen Interceptor, Helena Hauff, CYRK, DJ Godfather, Radioactive Man and over 150 more.

Label: toucan sounds (https://soundcloud.com/toucansounds)
https://soundcloud.com/hoshina

Hailing from Tokyo, Japan, Hoshina Anniversary has previously appeared on ESP Institute, Musar Recordings, and Young Marco’s Safe Trip, fusing traditional Japanese instrumentation with House & Techno sensibilities across his productions. Arriving now on Brooklyn’s toucan sounds label under his Shifting Gears moniker, the DJ/producer turns in two Jazz and Hard Bop inspired club-not-club tracks on ‘Drum Nation’.
Leading the release, title cut ‘Drum Nation’ sees loose drums and jazz scales meet crunchy production, delivering a deeply musical and punchy house track. ‘Average Hoshina Sounds’ sees more delightfully lo-fi production as wonky stabs and glistening pads culminate in an energetic mid-point build-up, making for a high energy dancefloor-focussed accompaniment to the title track.

PREMIERE : Shifting Gears - Drum Nation

5 Years of Nerang !!!!
Based in Queensland, Australia, Nerang Recordings has put out music from Interplanetary Criminal, Subjoi, DJ Swagger, DJ Bowlcut, J. Albert, Cassettes For Kids, and many more since its inception in 2016. Reaching five years of the imprint, head honcho Dj Whipr Snipr curates the second ‘Freaky Friends’ compilation, featuring contributions from a host of label associates and hotly tipped producers for six fast-paced, heavy-hitting tracks

Leading the release, Shall Not Fade and E-Beamz affiliate DJ Swagger’s ‘Hoticewater’ blends deep oscillations with skipping breaks and shimmering pads, with Low Tape’s ‘So Delicious’ following, keeping the energy high.
Striking vocals meet trippy FX and electro-tinged drum patterns across the track, a continuation of the DJ/producer’s releases on the likes of X-Kalay and Of Paradise.
Fresh off the back of their recent ‘Sportsgoth’ EP, Brazil’s Nørus and Dj Whipr Snipr collide once more on ‘Molecular Collision’, bringing classic 808 kits, acid lines, and squelchy synthesisers together.

Classic electro sounds meet modern production techniques on LA-based Ole Mic Odd’s ‘In The House’, as robotic vocal lines meet heavy arps. Ramping up the tempo, Berlin-based Nasty Enterprises boss Nasty King Kurl returns to the label with a fast and powerful off-kilter jam, leaning on freaked out vocals and tough percussion.
Rounding out the release, Cologne’s Turk Turkelton offers up ‘Offenbachs Father’, delivering a track complete with razor-sharp drum workout and expressive synth work.

PREMIERE : Norus & DJ Whipr Snipr - Molecular Collision

We are happy to welcome Canadian producer So Durand to the Choki Biki Family! The Ottawa native has supplied us with a 4 track EP comprised of Breakbeat, Jungle and Rave sounds that ends with an epic half-time Bonobo-esque masterpiece.

‘This Unruly Kingdom’ is the perfect transitional tool for both your Breaks and Drum & Bass DJ, blending the two genres together and sitting at around 160bpm.

The opening track Disons Que is reminiscent of early liquid Drum & Bass producers such as Bailey, Artificial Intelligence and Squarepusher. It combines melodic sounds with a deep bass and relentless breakbeat!

Following up is Take Me Back There, an early 90’s sounding Rave track with it’s Piano Stabs, Amen Breaks, Dub samples and 4 to the Floor drop.

Next is the titular TUK (This Unruly Kingdom). TUK is definitely one for the Drum & Bass and Jungle heads. So Durand’s North American heritage comes through clearly here with his use of high pitch vocal samples. However, it’s heavy Drum & Bass drop would definitely be heard in a Bristol basement.

Finally, So Durand ends his EP with LIES, an atmospheric hip-hop style track similar to acts such as Hudson Mohawk, Kanye West, Bonobo or Clap! Clap! thanks to his use of brass samples, broken vocal stings and wonky percussion. Wait for the second drop on this before you write this piece of genius off.

This Unruly Kingdom is out on Choki Biki Records on the 18th of February.

This Unruly Kingdom

PREMIERE : So Durand - Disons Que

Since last autumn, water in the area had turned crimson. Its surface was disturbed by occasional swirls.

Local fishermen and traders would avoid the site, and their boats would carefully sail around it.

As summer heat struck, it was possible to see the dimensions and outlines of an ancient construction; laying under the water, waiting for its time.”

Third V/A Compilation of Moving Pictures Label is titled “Aegean Forcefields”. The genres and musical borders are blended and twisted, as it is already customary to our carefully curated compilations. This time artists from Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, UK and Sweden are contributing their colours and textures to the palette of Moving Pictures imprint. Inside this package you will find dance floor weapons alongside living room melters and everything in-between. All of these sounds freely coexist and flow in our Moving Pictures universe.

Inspired by southern winds and lonely islands

PREMIERE : Kör Boira - Rise Of The Pure Hearted

Rise of the Machines is the debut collaboration between two exciting new players in the electro scene - Erik Griffoen & Ben Evans aka The Droid, who have been forging new sounds across a multitude of heavy tracks over the past two years that have picked up strong radio support from Dave Clarke on White Noise, Ralph Lawson on Exit Planet Earth and Qamar Sol on Space is the Place, alongside plays from by ADT, Paul Hierophant, Damo B and Dexorcist.

ROTM features four tracks of cutting edge electro that transition from peak time in the club to moments of pure tripped out musical bliss, all delivered with expert production and sound design.

Kicking off the release comes the title track ‘Rise Of The Machines’, this quirky yet nuanced excursion sets the pace, allowing it’s nifty ricocheting sequences, slick 808s, and tripped out ear candy to hit the clubs. ‘Prisoners features a wiggly bass led jam, plastered with synths and finished with a dash of vocoded vocals.

Onto the flip side - ‘Room And Pillar’ grabs the bull by the horns with a tough and aggressive bass line driven banger. Shrieking, twisted synth lines and FX are shattered across the track, keeping tension levels peaking, while TR808 rhythms cut through with military precision. Contrasting ‘The Neutral Zone’ sucks us into a deep atmospheric orbit of blissful yet inquisitive FM synthesis, distant emotive pads, fortified by warm stately bass tones.

The first track as Circuitry Man came out in 2008 for a compilation of the legendary
Some Bizzare label from London. In 2010 a remix for amGod on Alfa Matrix.

in the Junorecords electro chart.
The song "We are Some Bizzare" was played 2 times by Dave Clarke on his White Noise show.

In 2018 the homonymous Album will be released for my personal label Geotronrecords on Bandcamp.
Some pieces were played by Will Web on his "Breaking Waves" show on Detroit's Deep Space Radio
and again by Dave Clarke on White Noise.

During the pandemic as well as conducting my weekly 2 hour program on radio thamesfm.net "Futuristic electro dance projection"
I made many new songs with clear influences from Kraftwerk, Dopplereffekt, Aux 88 but with my own style.

feryne Guestmix For Cosmik Sounds With Kim Cosmik(Threads Hastings)

Vordergrundmusik revisit Martin Merz’s ‘Vertigo’ LP, featuring remixes from Extrawelt, re:deep, T.Raumschmiere, and Rittik Wystup. After making his debut on Vordergrundmusik in 2017 with ‘Prisma’, Frankfurt-based DJ and producer Martin Merz has remained a regular on the label and returned with his ‘Vertigo’ LP earlier this year. The imprint now revisits the eleven-track album and invites a selection of producers to rework three tracks in the shape of ‘Vertigo - The Remixes’ - welcoming re:deep, T.Raumschmiere, Rittik Wystup, and Extrawelt. Label owner Michael Schreiber, aka re:deep, kicks off the series with his interpretation of ‘Aural Drift’ boasting a vivacious beat and inviting harmonies, leading into the remix from T.Raumschmiere, co-founder of Shitkatapult, who reworks the track into an energetic 135 bpm frenzy. Rittik Wystup’s version of ‘Back To Life’ offers a net of sharp drums and trickling piano tones between striking synth jabs and arcane vocals, before making way for German duo Extrawelt (Cocoon). The duo delivers two powerful remixes of ‘Highlights’, with the cinematic, electro-infused ‘Cluster Buster Remix’ raising the energy once again and driving towards the peak time, before huge 808s and raw synths combine across the escalating ‘Laser Blazer Remix’ to make for a fitting finale to the series.

PREMIERE : Martin Merz - Highlights (Extrawelt Laser Blazer Remix)

Welcome back to the Magician On Duty Journey Series!

On this edition we welcome Elec (@elec-brown) & Lisa Luka (@lisa_luka)

lisa & elec are two magicians from germany. 

lisa, who is quite new to the scene, got popular real quick for her driving and cheeky  organic downtempo podcasts. besides that she also shared the stage with artists like super flu, bebetta, daniel jäger, dave dinger or jpetterson at different international events within the last two years. her sound clearly depends on how she feels and and genres are mostly secondary. 

elec, as an international dj and producer, he already played a lot of gigs all over the world and is well known for his touching, heartful and sometimes dramatic tracks and sets. 

every song he released in the last two years on diferent labels climbed the top100 in organic house & afro-house. the last one was about a week on #1 of the Beatport charts and got support from artists like, Hyenah, Richie Hawtin, John Digweed, Claptone or Karotte. Every year elec is playing shows around the globe. festivals like, rave on snow, nature one, untold, open beatz or his own baby: Schwerelos Open Air in Passau but also clubs like: sisyphos, berlin, kater blau, suicide circus, odonien, cologne or harry kline in munich and sometimes with lisa luka b2b.

his latest quote: „remix like it’s original!“ 

combing their slightly different but also sometimes similar taste in music, they created a very special journey in which you can hear their love for music and each other in every minute of the set.

“… and remember my sentimental friend, a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others…“

- the wizard of oz

I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I did!

TL Premiere #857 (2022.03.04) : Fleck E.S.C - Rough Silk [Central Processing Unit]

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

For this 55th Premiere of 2022, we have a track by French electronic music producer, now based in Tokyo, Japan "Fleck E.S.C." (aka Franck Collin) titled ‘Rough Silk’ from his forthcoming EP "Rough Silk" on the independent British record label, founded in Sheffield in 2012, specialising in electronic music : Central Processing Unit (CPU Records).

"Fleck E.S.C - Rough Silk" will be available on March 18, 2022 in Limited Edition 12" Vinyl EP + Digital.

▶︎ Pre-order : https://shop.cpurecords.net/album/rough-silk

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

Release Info :

Fleck E.S.C - Rough Silk [Central Processing Unit]

For more than a decade now, Fleck E.S.C. has marked himself out as one of the most playful and prolific producers in the electro game. Across dozens of releases for labels including Bass Agenda and Science Cult, the France-born, Japan-based artist has made his name through a production style which balances limber beats with exploratory textural work.

Fleck E.S.C. debuted on Central Processing Unit in 2018 with the Discrete Opinion EP. Now, after stopping by the Sheffield label last year on a Silicon Scally remix job, Fleck E.S.C. delivers his second EP for CPU in the form of Rough Silk. The record’s intriguing title proves an apt introduction to this four-track affair. These cuts are at once sleek and abrasive, anchored by robotechnic machine-funk grooves yet also full of strange, shifting shapes.

The opening title-track expertly sets out Rough Silk’s stall. Heralded by gurgling synths and all manner of whirring percussive tones, ‘Rough Silk’ blossoms around the minute mark with the introduction of a wickedly buoyant lead synth. This is music at once visceral and full of mystery, the sound of wending through the back alleys, and the feeling carries through to the following cut ‘Hat in the Cat’ - as the synth pads spool out overhead, the machine-funk snap of the beat has an almost aquatic quality that links it back to Drexciya.

Much like ‘Rough Silk’, the record’s first B-side ‘Faking Sweet’ also shifts gears. The opening strains of the track seem to be preparing for another insistent, expansive broken-beat pulse, but it stiffens its neck around ninety seconds in. Programmed drums whirr around a jittery machine-gun bass while discordant synths pull at the edges of the track, all of which brings a strong dystopian energy that increases further as the percussion sounds become increasingly bug-eyed.

After so much excitement, ‘Digger Play’ closes out the EP with a softer touch. There’s still plenty of low-slung bounce to the beat, but the track runs a little slower, and there’s a warm wistfulness in the synths which gives ‘Digger Play’ a painterly, almost poetic feel. However, while it may take its foot off the gas, the production here is as deft as it is everywhere else on Rough Silk.

With new EP Rough Silk, electro whizz Fleck E.S.C. brings the sort of casual mastery to proceedings that has characterised his career to date.

Hoochie Coochie Papa is the project of DJ and producer Clesley Honorato. Passionate about disco and 80s culture, the artist is enchanted by the cosmic magic of music that synthesizers can create and he even builds some analogs in his spare time.

Restless State Of Mind brings dark and energetic vibes with all the atmosphere that is created with the unique tones of synthesizers that it has. It also has a Ruksby remix that adds even more of an EBM atmosphere to the song. Mientras Danzas comes with a mix of rhythms and cultures. Electronic and dark sounds mixed with Latin and enveloping rhythms and feature a wonderful and energetic remix by Playa Del Karma.

Founded in Uruguay in June 2018 by Imanol Castro (aka Imanol), in 2020 Panko joined the crew as curator. U ́re Guay, is an independent label that releases varied genres from House, Electro, Acid, Techno, and old sounds of Funk, Disco, Afrobeat, and other eclectic rhythms.

Release Info :

Alva Recek - Soma EP [Woodwork Recordings - WOOD113]

Inspired by Aldous Huxley's dystopian science fiction novel 'Brave New World', Alva Recek's Soma EP traces its theme of social hierarchy and control... where a world government tries to prevent its people from thinking and speaking freely with the use of a legal drug that is provided daily. To maintain the stability of their forcefully engineered world, authorities encourage the constant consumption of the drug Soma, ensuring the population remains passive and soothed. In the lives of the citizens, if anything should feel wrong, they have Soma to block stressful situations such as pain, grief and anger, and yet the user is completely normal, oblivious to any sort of negative side effects. Soma, supplied in its various strengths, is the perfectly tailored distraction.

The Soma EP outlines characteristics of four hypothetical variations... the softness of the white variety, the moderate dose of yellow, leading to the stronger concentration of orange and finally the ultimate effect of Soma red.

Alva Recek's roots trace back to golden era 80s & 90s hip hop and rave culture, significant backdrops to her progression from a young rapper to a dedicated producer working in numerous genres.
With past collaborations in electronica, jazz fusion and hip hop, and a track recently released on Bass Agenda, Alva comes immersed legit deep in heady electro for this debut EP. 

Tracklist :
01. Soma White
02. Soma Yellow
03. Soma Orange
04. Soma Red
