Bare Essentials - Techno - Oct 2017

Drumcode returns with its 6th installment of the internationally celebrated A-Sides series. Renowned for fostering a shared space between industry tastemakers and rising talent alike, the careful curation that goes into each volume is a fine example of why Beyer’s brand continues to go from strength to strength.

Techno titan Adam Beyer has grown Drumcode into a force to be reckoned with; the label has become synonymous with forward-thinking, functional techno and even after 20 years, Drumcode continues to find new boundaries to push, and ways to solidify its legacy as the world’s number one techno label. 

2017 is no exception, with Beyer’s imprint hosting it’s first stage at Tomorrowland, not to mention the expansion of the critically acclaimed Junction 2 where the Drumcode stage is the centrepiece and Adam plays the key role of festival director. The Drumcode phenomenon continues to grow each week, chiefly fuelled by Drumcode Radio, Adam’s radio show that’s broadcast in 57 countries via 86 stations and to a global audience of 16 million techno fans per week. 

The A-Sides series acts as a perfect vignette of Drumcode’s cutting-edge sound; functional yet inspired techno, all tracks tried and tested by Beyer himself. Vol. 6 continues this tradition with a collection of 16 multi-faceted cuts from a mixture of both emerging artists and experienced label friends. 

The heart-throbbing bass in Amelie Lens’ electrifying piece ‘In Silence’ sets the tone for the dark and dance-floor-ready energy that Vol.6 carries the whole way through. Other standouts include Mars Bill’s rough’n’ready ‘Mohave’. Pulsating and precise, ‘Mohave’ has highlighted many of Beyer’s sets recently as has Wehbba’s monster track ‘Fake’, which fans have been anticipating the release of all year. 

Label-favourites Dense & Pika also feature on ‘A-Sides’ Vol. 6 with their hard-hitting ‘Just a Beat’ and a huge track from Beyer himself who has joined forces with Enrico Sangiuliano to bring us their undeniably infectious ‘Preset Heaven’. 

With many more notable selections from the likes of Julian Jewell, Timmo, Tiger Stripes and Pig&Dan, A-Sides Vol. 6 is another impressive addition to the label’s prolific release roster and a testament to why Drumcode remains at the forefront of the electronic world.

Julian Jeweil returns with a generous five-track EP continuing his stellar 2017. 

Following on from his ‘Rolling’ EP that dropped in January and featured the outstanding ‘Blue’, an early contender for one of the strongest tracks of the year, Julian Jeweil drops the crisp intergalactic techno trip ‘Space’

The EP begins in stunning fashion with title track ‘Space’, driven by stirring vocal effects that build up tremendously, later giving way to a punchy acid-laced climax. ‘South’ follows, a low-end tour de force. ‘Answer’ is already familiar to fans after it featured on DCR368 Live from Loveland and the track is a rousing peak-time weapon propelled by subterranean stabs. ‘Encke’ is deliciously mind-bending, led by heavy bass and distorted effects, before ‘Module’ follows providing a groovier, but no less powerful contrast.

A slow burning anthem: the holy grail of all producers. A tune that keeps building and building momentum gradually and naturally To the point crowds singing the bassline back when you drop it. This is the case with Gregor Treshers Goliath. 

Released February 2015 on Bedrock, its been smouldering ever since. The Frankfurt DJ considers it up there with A Thousand Nights and About A Good Place as one of his most successful tunes in his career so far; its distinctive hooky bass riff capturing moments and imaginations as more and more DJs exploited its unifying charm. 

Over two years later, Gregor and Bedrock present two precision-tailored remixes that add to the Goliath story. French techno OG Emmanuel Top, a man whose records inspired Gregor to produce in the first place, takes the lead with a 10 minute monolith that doesnt even hint at the riff for the first four minutes. Focusing on the machine funk rhythm of the original and turning it inside out, Top lets it sizzle for as long as possible before suddenly dropping the full musical scope of Goliath on us mid way. Alan Fitzpatrick, a man who doesnt need much of an introduction to fans of mordern Techno, also subverts the original in an equally remarkable way. Allowing himself to be taken in a whole new direction by the pads, a new topline and is added to create an entirely new experience that still instantly brings home the original tones and feels of Goliath. Remixes that build on the original and take it to entirely new pastures: The momentum continues.

After the successful release of his collaboration Neon Jungle with Harry Romero in July, Christian Smith brings us the next and final installment from his Synergy compilation album due out in October. Based in Brazil for many years, before moving to Europe, it was there in Sao Paulo where Christian became friends with techno king Victor Ruiz, so its no surprise that the duo have naturally joined forces to collaborate for this special project on Tronic. Victor is no stranger to the label, after remixing a track from Christian's album in 2016 and featuring on a compilation back in 2013. After some late night studio sessions in Brazil and Mallorca earlier this year, the duo created two original tracks to form The Runner EP, which is set to drop on Tronic on the 18th September. The title track, The Runner has a pummeling low end growl to it. A slow burner of a track which pushes deeper into the depths of subtle synth work. It releases into a recognisable and sizeable stab pattern, ready to set alight dancefloors. Drone Sector pulsates and has a deep beat driving behind a droning style vocal hook. The track has an atmospheric feel to it, creating a lurking but subtle air of tension. This is a late night heady techno track, set to trip you out.

Second State is the renowned imprint from one of the biggest duos in the scene, label heads Pan-Pot have been building its reputation since 2014 with a steady core of artists being featured along with appearances from the likes of Carl Cox, Joseph Capriati, Martin Eyerer, Marcel Fengler, Wigbert and many more.

The next release titled HUB Three is part of a series of collaborations with a chosen host. This time we see label regular Michael Klein take the helm, enlisting troops such as Pan-Pot themselves, Stephan Hinz, Amelie Lens and Roman Lindau respectively.

The track we selected for this DT:Premiere is Michael and Stephan’s “Far Sight” that has a warehouse vibe all over it. Atmospheric and punchy, the jackin’ beat has a stern attitude whilst building in tension from some scything synth sounds and killer stabs.
