Mike Stern - I Want To Leave

A new SPANDAU20 mixtape is here to bless your ears!📼
Meet our guest, Akua, a trailblazing DJ rooted in North American techno and a driving force in the scene's new wave of machine funk. In recent years, this Ghanaian-American artist has dedicated herself to reviving the innovative spirit of techno's golden eras, paying homage to the revolutionary sonics of Detroit, Chicago, and New York City's DJs. Akua's no-nonsense style brings a necessary and poignant intensity to contemporary dancefloors, seamlessly blending old-school vibes with the authentic energy of techno's turn-of-the-century peak. Her boundless legacy continues to expand each year, earning respect from international DJs and dancers alike, thanks to her incredible mixing finesse and a constantly evolving repertoire of future-proof classics.🛸

In her Spandau20 mix, Akua takes a vinyl-focused, high-energy, and 100% old-school approach. Endlessly inspired by older techno mixtapes and radio shows, she channels a raw and funky energy reminiscent of Detroit in the '90s. This mix is a nod to the real heads — an "if you know, you know" vibe transporting listeners to an era where techno pulsated through the airwaves with unbridled spirit.😎So be ready to take a deep dive into this immersive experience!🖤

With his first full-length EP on Token after a contribution to last year’s Fuga IV compilation, Nørbak proposes his unique take on movement and grain through the four tracks on ‘Sopro’. Constantly searching for new textural story telling, the Portuguese producer balances grit with technical depth.

‘Teste’ begins the record as the most minimal of the collection, setting a somber tone with percussive accents whipping through a cavernous atmosphere. Reminiscent of German style club music with booming kicks and resonating hits, Nørbak plays to his strengths by alternating through confronting sound design and imposing rhythmics. The title track ‘Sopro’ maintains the weight of its predecessor, however the focus shifts to the lead synth line. The Hayes member juggles through a hypnotic sequence, bending dissonant keys to ensure a funky swing while keeping things cool and collected. This stylistic hybrid segues perfectly into ‘Clima’, where Nørbak masterfully retreats into the mind for paced percussion over delirious ambiances in half-time. A slow rolling bassline pushes through the arrangement like a tidal wave with chanting snares egging it on, making ‘Clima’ almost ritualistic. The hypnotic touch completes ‘Sopro EP’ in a subtle way and leads into an epic of a closer with ‘Veneta’. Nørbak thickens the rhythmic section once again, with an accent on the high end, to shout far off notes describing a stretching landscape. These stuttering keys make for an intense ride supported by shaking hi hats all along the way, persistent through every transition. The record comes to a satisfying close with a meditative conclusion, an appropriate way to wrap up a sensorial adventure.

Sopro EP

Premiere: Nørbak "Teste" - Token Records

In our 215th edition of the voxnox podcast, we are pleased to introduce you to STERAC B2B Bastienne. The set was originally recorded on 03.03.2024 at the Daycare event at Bret. 

STERAC, a musical persona of Steve, thrives on Planet Rachmad. Unlike his other aliases which explore dub, disco, or house music, STERAC is dedicated to the darker, deeper realms of techno. This side is manifested in signature tracks across prominent labels like M-Plant, Tresor, Klockworks, Afterlife, Mote Evolver, Indigo Aera, and Delsin. 

Over the years, Bastienne has crafted her unique DJ sound through continual exploration and enjoyment of diverse sounds. As a versatile performer, she seizes every chance to lead club-goers on an engaging musical journey. Whether performing solo, delivering groovy, rhythmic techno sets, or teaming up with her friend VUUR for lively back-to-back house sets, Bastienne immerses herself fully.

After a decade of releases in the twilight of Irelands burgeoning underground music scene, Dublin-based audio visual platform Echoes From The Abyss line up a 4-track release from label boss Forest Echo One...Combining ultra-jagged drum work with acid-infused bass, 'Mech One' sounds like a spectral braindance filled with synthesized dreams, bubbling echoes and celestial frequencies.

https://www.delsinrecords.com/release/6555

Delsin are pleased to gather together some of the highlights from the rich and varied catalogue of Manchester-based producer Claro Intelecto. From his earliest works on Ai Records through a prolific run on Modern Love to his more recent outings on Delsin, Mark Stewart has continually presented a vision of electronic music that uses the Detroit blueprint as a launch pad for his own distinctive strain of techno. Moving from elegant beauty to rabid intensity while grounded by a firm sense of rhythm, his catalogue runs deep and wide. This expansive compilation filters out select highlights from across his discography, and reframes them as a compelling overview of a truly distinctive voice in modern electronic music.

Suburban Tales 1 was born as a VA dedicated to push local talents: it was our intimate dedication to Milan, the city which raised us, made us know each other, forged our sound.

Before this worldwide emergency we were already planning the sequel, but this peculiar situation drove us to extend it both to Italian and international friends and affiliates: The Exaltics, Dmitry Distant & Norwell, Bass Junkie, Heinrich Dressel / Composite Profuse, Pablo Diskko & Rise Black, SF ADVNTR aka Foreign Sequence & Jauzas the Shining, Lake Haze, Sprawl aka Andrea Benedetti, Unconscious, MOKEN, Antonio Barbetta aka Raw Ambassador, Davide Piras, Joao Ceser, Sebastian Muravchik aka Lucio , Tha Haterparisi, DVS NME & Faceless Mind, Kan3da, Kosmik, FAUNA53 aka Asymmetrical, FUTURE BLONDES, AIC - Andromeda in Catene, Aden Melvin aka Dreadful Activist, Violet Poison and Raffaele Capone aka Institute of Soul Research.

A powerful project dedicated to finance the "Fondo San Giuseppe", a fund instituted by Comune di Milano, to support the people who lost their job during this struggle which sees Milan as one of the cities that had been hit most by the virus.

We will devolve the entire revenue to this association.
