Retro Rave Recordings is an outlet for new music made with the old skool vibe. 

We aim to release tunes today that not only would of been killers back in the day, but also still 'hold their own' today.

We would also particularly like to release tunes that stand for the original vibe but include modern techniques and sounds that just weren't around back then.

If you have any demos that you want us to consider for release please let us know by message or use our dropbox. 

Check out our parent labels website www.kanrecordings.co.uk where all our tunes can be bought as mp3 or wav. [Onyl 89p for a 320kb mp3] or choose a main digital retailer of your choice including Beatport, iTunes, TrackItdown, Juno, Amazon, Spotify and another 30 stores. 

TECYR is the creative alias of Joe Townsley, a seasoned music producer, DJ, and entrepreneur whose journey through electronic music is as dynamic as his sound. Starting in the mid-2000s UK free party scene under the name Dynamic Trip, Joe developed his craft amidst the raw and energetic underground rave culture. Later, as part of the DJ collective BLOC, he further explored the progressive and groove-driven sounds that would shape his future as TECYR. This rich history of influences and experiences has culminated in a sound that seamlessly blends nostalgia with forward-thinking innovation.

TECYR’s music takes inspiration from iconic artists like Axel Karakasis, Pedro Delgaro, and Dave the Drummer, as well as legendary labels such as Wiggle, Yin Yang, Special Series, Patterns, Zync Grooves, and Terminal M. His current focus lies in creating hardgroove and techno with influences from early acid techno and the raw, driving energy of early 2000s underground rave culture. This sound reflects a deep connection to his roots while pushing the boundaries of modern electronic music.

Beyond the studio, TECYR is the founder of the Noise Academy, a hub for aspiring DJs and producers, and the Lincoln DJ Hub, a vibrant community space dedicated to fostering creativity and collaboration in the electronic music scene. These ventures reflect his passion for mentorship and his dedication to cultivating the next generation of talent.

TECYR’s artistry extends to monthly digital mixes on YouTube and SoundCloud, as well as high-quality video recordings of in-house DJ events at the Lincoln DJ Hub. These projects offer fans an intimate look at his creative process and solidify his presence in the global techno and tech house community.

With roots deeply embedded in the underground and a vision for the future, TECYR is more than an artist—he’s a storyteller, mentor, and innovator. Prepare to experience the pulse-pounding beats and immersive grooves that define TECYR’s sound.

Den Haag, Holland...now living in Delft. 

This multi-cultural Junglist has been dj-ing and promoting D&B/Jungle/Breakcore since 2001 at his residencies, raves and venues across Europe. He got interested in audio production in 2006, which led to releasing on a couple of compilations and performing as a live act in 2007, using his laptop and some controllers. 

Since 2010, he runs and co-owns two small Ragga-Jungle vinyl labels: 
Lickshot Recordings with Bong Selecta- a ragga-jungle label focussing on vibey yard music, and Bomba Cut Recordings with Stivs- a junglecore label dedicated to make hardcore mashed up ragga-jungle.

He also performs and produces with partner in crime Rob Raider, under the alias VRS. By syncing up their gear, they aim to create cutting edge dance music influenced by d'n'b/jungle/breakcore/dubstep and much more- breaking all boundaries. 

On stage, you can expect an exclusive mashup of unreleased dubs when playing live or banging and tight dj-sets when bringing out his vinyl collection.
