Pfirter is back with the third release on his new MindTrip imprint, aided by Jonas Kopp, Dimi Angelis & Jeroen Search, and Developer! Spread across 4 tracks, this diverse EP will strike a chord with fanatics of modular synthesis and old school techno. Pfirter's own 'Ahora' may be the most intense track released on the label so far. A nice combination of solid 'marching-style' drums and staccato raves stabs lays down the basis for peak-time destruction. When the time comes to crank it up to 11, this would be a great place to start. Developer makes a guest appearance by remixing the title track of the last EP, 'The Fall of the Empire is Imminent.' If empire does indeed crumble, it wouldn't be hard to imagine this dystopian-tinged remix making for the perfect soundtrack. Jonas Kopp's take of Ahora forgoes the big-room and gloomy antics of the A side for something more cerebral and slightly more psychedelic. The result is an 8-minute trip that takes you to the abyss while retaining the trademark Jonas Kopp sound. This is essential for the twilight hours. Dimi Angelis and Jeroen Search close out the EP with a jam that lies somewhere in between old school and sci-fi tinged techno that dominated in the `90s. Gone are the breakdowns and the excess frills of the 21 st century. This is pure machine funk for the die hard purists.

Responsible for organizing the Moments event series throughout Berlin, I/Y is releasing an EP celebrating their collaboration with all the artists who performed and adhered to the Moment’s concept in the last few years. Releasing music from everyone was impossible, but the 4 tracks produced by Voiski, Blind Observatory, Schloss Mirabell, and I/Y give a solid idea of what Moments is about.

Juan Mendez aka Silent Servant is a figure in techno history that needs little introduction. As a member of the Sandwell District collective and the label's art director he collaborated on works that were responsible for a global focal shift in the genre as their label adapted and challenged the paradigm of minimal techno, taking influence from other sources such as dub, post-punk, and even classical minimalism.

But Mendez's relationship with music goes back much further than these seminal releases. With In Memoriam, Silent Servant's latest release on Tresor Records, Mendez writes a deeply personal memoir of a 30-plus year career spent exploring and absorbing the shadowy side of music; a carefully crafted elegy to people, places, and times past and the lasting effect they have on the present.

Across the four tracks, Mendez pays tribute to the earliest Detroit techno and electro, the Belgian EBM movement and the wave music that followed, the monumental dub techno sound from Berlin, and the harder, abrasive sound of the UK at the turn of the last millennium; exploring and referencing the genres that informed his later work. Each track name gives a hint to the timeframe he is revisiting and re-contextualising as the E.P. repurposes the styles that exerted an influence on him.

This E.P. represents a pure distillation of Mendez's memories whilst also cementing his place in the current and future sound of 21st century techno; aware of where we came from but focused on where we are heading.

The artist behind the fourth New York Trax release needs no introduction. Steve Stoll is one of the pioneers and founding fathers of New York techno. Producing pure, minimalist analogue-minded techno (even though his career began as a drummer with the industrial label Wax Trax), Steve Stoll has recorded for his own label Proper NYC, Trax Records, Djax, Nova Mute and many more, including his recent appearances on Nina Kraviz's imprint Trip. This record on New York Trax is the essence of Steve Stoll's style: minimal, driving, with a subtle groove that sinks in the rich texture of sound. It connects the dots between the past, present, and the future of the New York sound.

This is the second studio collaboration released on Fossil Archive between label owner Roberto and Artform’s Jamie Anderson. This time we have a four track EP compiled to take the listener on a sonic trip through an authentic all-night warehouse experience. 

On the A-side are two tracks which feature the vocal talents of the Chicago legend Robert Owens. ‘Broken’ and ‘Bare Essentials’ are exclusive ‘warehouse’ versions of songs the trio worked on at Jamie’s studio in Berlin for Robert Owens’ forthcoming album ‘Naked’. 

On the flip we have a raw acid track composed with a classic 303, 808 and 909 din-sync configuration running live through the mixing desk with a spring reverb for effects and a Joe Meek for compression. Finally ‘Bell Theory’ explores synthesised analogue sequences with a deep hypnotic provenance which serves up mind-food as the sun breaks through the rafters.
