Marking their tenth vinyl release, Dutch imprint spclnch gear up to issue the 4-track extended player ‘The Four Elements‘ from collaborative duo DP-6 consisting of Vadim Indigo and Alexey Filin...Our pick from the release is ‘Water‘ – thanks to its underwater pilgrimage, reminiscent of the legendary sound of Deepchord and Maurizio. In this proto-human brain massage, ultra-muffled kick-drums, delay-driven atmospheres and streaming echoes of elegance transport listeners into the vaults of a submerged Atlantis-like metropolis filled with ancestral hardware and long-forgotten knowledge.

Releasing on Rekids Special Projects in August ‘24, Procombo’s ‘Nothing’ EP is a robust, groove-laden set of club tracks built for the peak time. The RX Istanbul boss starts with the title track, ‘Nothing’, which features swinging organic rhythms, chugging chords, and gospel vocals. It sets the tone perfectly for the rest of the EP, with the tongue-in-cheek ‘Keep Your Pants On’ boasting some impressive techno stab work while a distant voice repeats the track name.

Procombo’s aptly named ‘Sequences’ then utilises exactly that to masterful effect. Mind-warping synth soundscapes accompany punchy drums while rides slice and whirl above before ‘Mumbles’ continues with chopped-up vocal samples and a more stripped-back techno feel. Closing out this workout, ‘Freakin’’ has a pulsing bass, rattling percussion and another irresistible vocal that drives the track in true jackin’ style.

Having first worked with Matt Edwards’ RSPX in 2021, Procombo has since released a steady supply of funk-fuelled techno records via the Rekids offshoot, each regularly supported by the likes of Luke Slater, Truncate, Richie Hawtin, DJ Bone, Pan-Pot, Pangaea, Elisa Bee, and many more.

Tresor Records is delighted to welcome Rod Modell to its catalogue, with the release of his new album Captagon.

Rod Modell needs no introduction, his various projects render him a master of techno. In repetition and barely noticeable change, Modell resculptures perceptions. His sound-design echoes cinematic ethereality, where ferric artefacts slam against percussion, rusty delays filter observation - the resulting web is a complex, radiating ambience that etches a natural ebb and flow.

Transformative sounds alight from the outset, “Triangulation” recalls flickering harmonies and grains, a tectonic swipe. Fast-paced dub techno emerges in “Reiki”, the disorienting clangs suggesting a step away from his recent ambient excursions. “Ito” crunches the pulse further with insistent noise, into soaring epiphanies of darkened transmissions.

Modell singularly uproots standard sonic hierarchies of techno production, crisp static as forceful as his beats, a provocation of rhythm and noise. Unceasing in its fast tempo, “Jade” is trademark Tresor business - the seismic sub-sonics underpin a momentous drive, with reverberated vocal inflections disfiguring warped, dancing materials. “Scrawler” is upfront and direct, a slamming groove and swaying chords diffusing ethereality. Enter vast chambers of smeared minimalism.

Where Modell’s recent releases had indicated a priority for ambient sounds, this new album extends Modell’s essential vision within techno. Closing track “Air-Port” shows Modell at his most crucial best - an ethereal colossus of sub-bass weight and morphing geometry.

Nachtdigital Mint marks the last edition of Nachtdigital Festival: After more than two decades it is time for a change. Over the course of the past eight years, Nachtdigital has given birth to a dozen releases in various formats. "Nachtdigital Mint" is the final statement - a return to the roots, in its most accomplished form.

Starting with a single 10inch release in 2011, the Nachtdigital label has evolved both musically and visually. 2017 saw the release of the first double LP with gatefold cover - a format that since has become the preferred mode of operation. For the last two years, Nachtdigital has focussed primarily on commissioned works, with thematically curated releases. The "Nachtdigital Mint" compilation marks the return to the original idea of the label: To compile tracks from artists of this year’s festival program, without much fuzz about conceptual works. The result is refreshingly energetic and gives a glimpse into the heterogeneous sound of the festival itself: Combining young talents with accomplished producers, raw sounds with dreamy delicacies. Side D was compiled in collaboration with Prague’s club institution Ankali - a fitting closing statement, as collaborations are what Nachtdigital has always been about.
