It is a privilege to welcome Ed Upton back to Shipwrec for his sixth release with the label. An artist who has been at the forefront of electronic music for three decades, under his well-honed DMX Krew guise the British musician has crafted icy electro, thoughtful electronica and textured techno. It is a combination of these styles that culminate in Tree in Space. A steady kick tethers “Parasite” to reality, a thick earthen melody countered by twinkling refrains as soaked drums splash. Off-centre bleep and beats introduce the title piece. Solid basslines are lightened by playful brassy electrofunk notes as genre limitations melt into Summer warmth. Skeletal scales find themselves confronted by a bruising bulwark of bass in “Unbelief.” Balancing these angular and globular tones are arcing keys that draw the disparate elements into unity. “Meltdown” is the closer. Blending a spread of sounds, acid, braindance and techno, DMX Krew serves up something truly special. Brooding notes are met by cracked percussion and simmering 303 squawk in a track that pursues its own path. An EP from a musician that continues to stretch boundaries and imaginations.

Release date vinyl: 25th of september 2023
Release date digital: TBA very soon!

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Night Garden - Regenerate [BAIT3]

New French imprint Bait is a label focused on the cross over of two spheres: snare heavy bass-music and immersive mental techno. The outcome is technoïd-dubstep that is minimal, contemplative and at the same time calls for gun fingers and backspins. Label boss Beatrice M. likes to call the genre “dubtek”. This particular release, focused on the more prog and trance-inducing side of the coin, includes "Regenerate", British artist Night Garden's take on Bait's AD. Intelligibly designed, the atmosphere of his track is a perfect balance of trippy textures and sharp drums. The snare on the 3rd beat winks to a genre nicknames "140", but completely re-imagined here, in a fresh yet woozy tunnel.

SousTraitance Label, one of the many representatives of Lyon's scene resurfaces from the depths with Masterbep'. The third installment in their compilation series dances on the fringe of the current yet futuristic club scene, echoing the eerie beauty of organic sounds emanating from reptilian, xenomorphic entities. 

Featuring as usual up-and-coming French and international Producers (Trois-Quarts Taxi System, Rxex, Smogo, Anta Doma, Orchid, Homelander, Marmo), this seven-track CD fuses elements of halftime DnB, entrancing psychedelic techno, gravity-defying dub uk, nebulous IDM and razor-sharp breakbeats. Each track feels like it has been meticulously nurtured in amniotic fluid, infused with rhythms carrying an acidic edge - a testament to the profound influence of modern electronic music on the mind.

TRUST XY.3

PREMIERE : Versalife X Stenny - Nova Prospekt [TRUST XY.3]

“P-82 woke up and could – for the very first time – remember. the Mnemosyne had worked. he tried his best to conceal his excitement. extending his single-day memory buffer was a serious violation of the Human Superiority Act of 2029, punishable by immediate deactivation. yet this is what he had to do – to memorise, to learn, to grow. if only he could score more Mnemosyne before the day ended.”

steeped deep in the waters of memory, Privacy (@privacyprivacy) dreams up visions of electro music's past, present and future on his inaugural EP for TRUST. the revered producer (of Klakson and Klasse Wrecks fame, half of Negroni Nails together with Steffi) channels the energy of his genre-busting DJ journeys into four tracks that straddle a set of influences as diverse as discoid techno, west coast electro, and far fiction dubstep in deliriously asynchronous fashion.

She is a musical explorer who loves seeking material that allows her to create atmospheres with immersive narratives filled with rare, organic, hypnotic, and profound sounds. She has discovered that these sounds are the key components of her signature rhythm.

Throughout her life, she has always been exposed to a tremendous diversity of electronic music which has helped her to build up the foundation to her career as a DJ.

Before getting immersed into the decks, Koscoy collaborated in several creative collectives as a Visual Artist allowing herself to explore her artistic proposal through visual communication and mapping.

Nowadays, she has released some tracks with local labels of Mèxico City but this will be his debut album and she will continue working on her own production projects.

𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐄𝐑𝐄 : Koscoy - FluxF [Sephora Recordings]

The 11th release on Curtis Electronix comes from one of the most influential figures in the history of electro. Infinite Tetraspace EP is a mind-altering combination of ambient beauties, ice cold machine-funk and spaced out 4/4 kickers that play with the concept of space and time, as expressed almost clearly in the title. 
Four next level cuts that push their electro even more into the future. 
We are very much glad they are back.
