Soma welcome Glasgow based DJ/producer Secluded aka Hans Bouffmyhre to the label as he debuts with us with his fantastic Mercy EP. Hans has become quite the force in the underground techno scene over the last few years with releases on the likes of Electric Deluxe and, of course, his own Sleaze imprint. With Soma, he brings out his Secluded alias which strips things back with the aim to explore a new techno vibe, inspired by sounds from Berlin & Detroit. Secluded productions are characterised with a deep pounding beat, softened by dubby synth passages and deep soundscapes, creating a gloomy atmosphere. Also appearing on the EP are two peak time Remixes from ROD.

Title track Mercy opens the EP with an old school chord driving this monster from Secluded. Backed perfectly with on point percussion and a quite healthy kick drum, this track certainly sets the tone for the EP  

Pastures takes things on a suitably deeper turn. With a pulsing sub bass rattling through you and a resonated synth line that eerily creeps in, taking the track upwards. Simple yet effect drums work this track straight onto the dance floor as Secluded created a perfect peak time Techno workout.

After his fantastic reworks of Slams Positive Education, ROD is back to bring his unique, old school, jackin’ take on Secluded’s Mercy. Remix One uses the original chord filtered & processed as 909 drums punch in and out to devastating effect. Remix Two loops out the chord sample making this a more hypnotic, looped out jackin techno number.

Having left behind the hot summer days, Remain LTD 54 sails through the first month of the new season with Hurdle EP by Axel Karakasis.

Powerful and vibrant, the title track is a brilliant mood booster. Rolling rhythm, amazing synths and relentless percussion form a music scenery. The track is definitely catchy building up smoothly and the cut is brilliant leaving a “feel-good” sensation. 

Celestial completes the package with…groove, groove and more groove! Full of energy, a hauntingly satisfying background gets all geared up with slamming rhythm, funky samples and electrifying effects to present a tribute to clear-cut, European techno!

In this release, we manage to put a combination artists who are very special to us. Luckily, they wanted to be in the Yellow Recordings family! The artists are performing above expectations with their heavy techno sound. We truly believe that every track in this release will be served as floorfillers. Matt Minimal sets the foundation for the groovy synth bass. Skober, Balthazar & Jack Rock, Andy Notalez contribute with their own versions, high quality!

Gate Null is proud to introduce the collaboration between Andrea Frisina and Irregular Synth, including 3 strong remixes by 3 international top artists. The original is a fast techno track with a strong bassline, based on a game of percussions and eclectic synths. The remix of Spektre is featured by the control of a melodic synth, ahead of the original bassline and groove. The remix of Lutzenkirchen is an amazing and solid deep-techno version. Rounding up the EP is the dark remix of Balthazar & JackRock.

Let's rock with the brand new 50th release on our label! We are happy to welcome our newcomers from Russia - Moonbeam. And we are sure that many of you already know their legendary production. The guys prepared for us an original track called "Mirrors". We can say many good words about this fantastic track. First of all it's all about the original Moonbeam's melody. Lovely keys, pads and soft wet effects with mighty drum sets. It's just impossible to miss this track. While Spartaque had a lot of deals with Moonbeam previosly, we asked him once again to put his hand on this remix job. As result we have one more bomb ready to explode at your dance floors all over the world. The real must-have from IAMT! Tesla also has joined this company with his remix. Smashing bassline, nice mixed percussion parts and many more interesting special Tesla's sound-tricks here. His style easy to recognize. Check it to find out that Ukraine and Russia have real talents! Enjoy;)

Moonbeam - Mirrors (Spartaque Remix) [IAMT] OUT NOW

Slovenian powerhouse Tomy DeClerque returns to Phobiq with his hi-octane sound and a couple of varied numbers to shake things up with maximum effect and precisely-planned impact. 
The busy rhythm section of the title track rolls things out as an industrial loop dominates with its intensity. Menacing synth stabs come together to complete the sonic warfare, while the pulsating sub bass sucks us into a deep, black hole. Michel De Hey &amp; Rauwkost&#8217;s version smooths everything out and lets dubby sensibilities introduce us to the affair, allowing shuffling drums to lead the way to classic, dominating chords. 
&#8220;Breath&#8221; seals the deal with its rocksteady groove and infectious, repetitive riff. Sharp stabs from a dismal Techno future provide the torque and the bubbling low end is almost ready to explode under the spaced-out delay effects.

Belgian techno legend Marco Bailey makes his debut for Sleaze Records! Marco bas been in great form over the past year with many big releases on his own label MB Elektronics. The original of Train Collector builds with great tension and explodes to life after the break. Hans Bouffmyhre provides a typically pounding remix as an alternative version. www.sleazerecordsuk.com

Renesanz' main guys Balthazar & JackRock have cooked something very special for the 93rd release of the label. Both tracks “Drone” and “Vintage” are a great mixture of crazy up-to-date grooves and percussions, combined with 100% old school synths, bringing out that vintage feeling.

YYR060 : Cristian Varela - Pornogames (A.Paul Remix)

The boys have teamed up for their first collective effort on Phobiq and this collection of tracks is a perfect showcase of classic sounds making their return to the scene. 
 The EP opens with &#8220;Swedish Superficial Bimbos&#8221; and goes straight for the jugular with its bouncy bass, busy percussion and dominating chords. &#8220;Kopad&#8221; takes things to a completely different direction with a definite nod to Detroit, letting the subtle arrangement and nostalgic elements do the talking. The next track picks right up from there as a continuation of sorts, going for a more straightforward approach while retaining the old-school elements. Florian Meindl&#8217;s interpretation of the track completely flips things around the brings more House-iness to the table with a snappy rhythm section and optimistic chords. 
 Sealing the deal, we have &#8220;KLIN&#8221; returning things to regular status. As expected, a dystopian vibe emanates from the synth warfare and dislocated stabs as the track grinds away with busy hats and ghastly effects.
