Lift Me Higher (Remotif Remix)

For the next instalment in our split series, we handed the reins over to two producers whose work has kept us continually inspired over the last few years. At the helm of the A-side, Berlin big-room havoc-wreaker AMOTIK puts on the burners right away with two riotous jams that scream nothing but sonic aggression. On the flip, the mysterious, genre-unbound Janice sweeps us into his psychedelic, non-formulaic techno mindset.  

True to AMOTIK’s minutely balanced, well-integrated blends of punishing kick drums and sunken harmonics, metronomic destroyer “Narangi” swings the pendulum sharp and clean, from deep down a thick sludge of reverb-soaked, FX-topped percussive armada to bleeps n’ bloops barrage fire, whereas quake-inducing tides of 909 thunder hail down upon the dance floor with unrelenting frenzy. The dusty bone-bruiser “Hara” picks up the torch and it’s in no calmer mood. A slowed-down, breaks-loaded churner, this one relies on a fine engineering of lo-freq moves and pure hardware-processed filth to establish a murky motel, cinematic narrative of sorts.  

Up with the fracturing wares, here’s Janice rocking the flip upside down with the aptly-titled “Mass Formation Hypnosis”. Doing what’s written on the tin, the faceless producer rushes us headfirst into the boiler for a thorough, unfaltering brainwash. Smelling of leather, grease and coal, this one’s bristling with a delectably rugged palette of unambiguous electronics: an ultimate shelling of chest-rattling drum work, in-your-face bass uppercuts, trumpeting stabs and menacingly altered vox. The final salvo, “Names and Excuses”, tops it all off on an ominously droney tip, flinging us right away into the frothing mouth of a deadly machine giant, hurtling and tumbling down mazy bowels of washed-out ambient techno via rhyzomatic gutters of brooding abstract motifs and no-frills heavyweight pound. Hectic. 

''XVII'' comes adorned with a duly outstanding frame to shine, and will be pressed on 180g quality vinyl.

Shut Off

Heavy UK techno from James Ruskin backed with a Luke Slater remix! For our money it's all about the Slater remix of 'The Outsider', laying down a dry-heaving banger in the finest Berghain/Sandwell/Dettmann style, and a must for anyone who picked up his awesome Ostgut album earlier this year. On the flip Ruskin's original version and 'Solution' come constructed in the sort of DJ friendly and typically synthline driven UK style favoured by Mark Broom or Surgeon. That A-side kicks like mutha! boomkat.com/vinyl/235415-james-ruskin-luke-slater-the-outside
