Breaking Bounds Vol. 2 [Snippets]

He readjusted his glasses so he could narrow his eyes and survey the class room slowly. The students cowered or looked away as his gaze passed them; nobody had the answer to his question. This was a regular occurrence: but whether it was down to the student's lack of knowledge or the fear of answering before this daunting figure was yet to be determined. 

Brooklyn-based DJ, producer and violinist Beartrax welcomes Spanish producer Univac to his Melodize imprint for the first label outing of 2021. Having previously released records for Bunker, 30D and, more recently, David Vunk's Moustache Records, he makes his debut on Melodize with 'Polar': two powerful, icy electro cuts written on Univac's Moog Rogue, backed up by two stellar remixes from Extrawelt and John Tejada.

Release Info :

Technoist - The Whippings of Mass Distraction [Grey Meta // GMETA 011]

Miike has been a pioneer of hardcore techno and breakcore for over two decades under his moniker The Teknoist, but over the last few years he has focussed on, and released a considerable amount of more, what could be described as “more reasonable tempo techno and electronic music”, under the his other moniker, Technoist. Throughout the years, as The Teknoist, Miike has released on record label titans such as Planet Mu, Ad Noiseam, Industrial Strength, Deathchant and Peace Off. As Technoist, he has been able to add Love Love, Industrial Strength's 'Hard Electronic' and even Leisure System to his list of outlets, all along side the his multiple own record labels, Ninja Columbo, Samurai Brylkream, Our Fucking Jungle and now his newest joint venture, Grey Meta.

The EP features remixes by highly respected artists, Ben Pest (Mechatronica/I Love Acid) and Cocktail Party Effect (Tectonic/Sneaker Social Club), who have both contributed their unique spin to Miike's original tracks. Ben Pest's remix of Quest for Kenneth the Space Knife turns the more straight kicking existing piece in to a more swampy and groovy squat rave techno affair. Whilst Cocktail Party Effect's remix of Causal Loop Paradox takes the originals beautifully epic hang drum melodic element and runs with the musical idea, adding layers upon layers, where the end result builds to a frenzied energy that will leave listeners in a chaotic trance ...all while having a zero drums. Sublime. In addition to his music career, Miike has always been a positive outspoken advocate for mental illness and health awareness. He uses his platforms and blog to raise awareness and break down the stigma around mental illness and health issues. He is a passionate spokesperson for people that live with Bipolar, ADHD, Autism and Schizophrenia, as he does himself.

Hamburg-based producer and DJ Beam Control makes his debut on DJ MELL G’s Label JUICY GANG RECORDS with a bass-heavy 6-track electro EP "Moving Electrons".

Having been deeply immersed in the electronic music scene for six years, Beam Control's journey began in Leipzig, where he organized parties with friends. His sound is heavily influenced by artists like Keith Tucker, Anthony Rother, and Morphology and further shaped by his friendships with XY0815, Varum, and Int Main (Yarn Init). Since 2023, he’s been organizing parties in Hamburg under the name „SYNTAX.“
 
The EP kicks off with "On the Circuit," a synth-driven breakbeat track that sets the tone for the acid and break journey ahead. "Electronic Overload" follows, introducing a thumping bassline, melodic flourishes, and robotic vocals that enhance the EP's futuristic vibe. "Robot Science" stands out as a dynamic exploration of sounds, merging dark bass synths with uplifting elements . The track starts with cheeky phone edits and snappy, energetic kicks. As it continues, it introduces bright melodies and heavy vocals, which gives track a special dark vibe. "Distorted Minds," featuring Jetson G, brings all the elements together for a classic ghetto house track, blending uplifting sounds and commanding vocals. The EP continues with Yarn Init's remix of "Robot Science," featuring deeper bass patterns, robotic voice snippets, and a darker spin on the original tune. The EP finishes with „Walking Hours,“ wrapping up the EP with its bouncing synth rhythms and guiding energy, concluding this bass heavy musical journey.

After a 5-year-long hiatus, Stereo Cube returns with a renewed creative force.

Characterised by the sounds of a 2016 Soundcloud, post-IDM landscape, Stereo Cube draws inspiration from the producers and artists that shaped his early years. Notes of Mr. Bill, Tennyson, Koan Sound, and Virtual Riot seep through in each production, with a fresh take on the sounds that have inspired him since the project's inception a decade ago.

Overlord is marked by glistening glitches that swirl around the listener, while meticulous vocal chops and playful time signatures add layers of intrigue. The EP is a glimpse into his evolving sound-both familiar and forward-thinking, marking his long-awaited return.
