deepteach

As the twilight zone reaches over the rainforest, you lose control. Synthetic electrical pulses echo around you. There is no sense of time. No ability to communicate verbally. Only primal telepathy. One stream of thought blends into the next with no clear link. As you explore new parts of your consciousness, your mind is guided by goblins and mushroom-men. A mysterious unknown character speaks to you, what are they trying to tell you? As new sounds emerge above the horizon, you attempt to make sense of this entire experience. Your mind enters a trance-like state and you are taken into the higher atmospheric regions of air, as you take in all the sounds around you. You are dissolved into the ether, those upper dimensions far above the clouds. You are at peace now, immersed in the etheric presence.

Returning to the Ransom Note Records offshoot, Insult To Injury boss Timothy Clerkin presents four prime cuts of rave meatiness for our ravenous consumption. Showing off his chops, Timothy’s distinctive Acid sound collides head on with Jungle and Breakbeat elements, put through the mincer to form an EP of epic dance floor destroyers.
Our choice here felt to Tour de Trance which takes the tempo down a notch, whilst revving up the Hands-In-The-Air-O-Meter! Big, analogue synths build throughout, sweeping us up and taking us to a place of pure ecstasy by the end.

PREMIERE | Timothy Clerkin - Tour De Trance [Insult To Injury] 2022

Label: Back Door Records
Artist: El Outsider
Format: Vinyl & Digital
Cat. Number: BCKD12
EP Title: 4 Club Use
Release Date: January 20th, 2023
Support it: backdoor.bandcamp.com/album/4-club-use

If you decide to look up the strict definition of an outsider in any dictionary, you'll find that the term is understood as "a person who is not involved with a particular group of people or organization or who does not live in a particular place."

Perhaps this is the most accurate description of Santiago @Merino. For a long decade and from his native Medellín, this DJ and producer have always tried to keep his sonic spectrum open. An interdisciplinary artist capable of freely navigating through a myriad of genres is rarely encountered, and that may be the reason why Santiago enjoys a non-negotiable respect in the different scenes that make up the music circuit of his city.

On this occasion, Back Door Records is pleased to serve as host to receive one of the most anticipated facets within the range of music produced by this Colombian artist. The Outsider marks the debut of a new project signed by Merino, a new hunch in which house takes the helm of an EP entitled 4 Club Use.

Composed of five tracks, 4 Club Use seems to show us the true essence behind a genre that has almost been trivialized over the years. In this case, El Outsider decided to take the basic ingredients of tech house to produce a recipe much richer in flavors, textures, and melodies. "Fire People", for example, leaves the window open for the airs of Detroit techno to come in and cool off any sunny afternoon. "Outsider" and "The Heat," on the other hand, are seasoned by the purest amen breaks, as if it were a blessing intended solely for the dance floor.

PREMIERE: El Outsider - Outsider [Back Door Records]

A crowd began to swell outside the club; people of all ages and from all walks of life gathering with one motivation: to dance. Beyond the doors the beat throbbed and pulsed, seeping out into the world each time the door cracked open. On entering the energy took hold of you instantly: the rhythms moving your body; the lights overhead sending you into a trance. Time seemed to stand still in here, there was no knowing how many hours had passed. But it didn't matter, as long as the energy was high, they weren't going anywhere. 

Remmah, the label helmed by Northern Irish DJ and producer Hammer, has called on the talents of several producers from all around the world to contribute to his Remmah Rundown compilation. Featuring old friends and new faces, and spotlighting both established and emerging producers, the release is a lovely spread of all the sounds that Hammer holds dear, from Italo disco and acid-techno to cosmic house jams. Several artists return to the label, the likes of Stevie Cox, Fossil Archive, Anna Gram and KILIMANJARO, whilst there's debuts from artists like Club Tularosa, YSANNE and our pick from Fucanglong files co-founder ALF CHAMPION and fellow Mexican artist MDHNTR.

exclusive | Wickham - The Docks | MINDHELMET

Wickham returns to MINDHELMET for the label’s 19th release - a stacked various artist EP featuring ADMNTi, Finny B, Max Stedeford, James Andrew, Tate, and Wickham himself, who previously graced the imprint with a full solo EP. This time, he signs off the record with “The Docks,” a track that captures everything that makes UK minimal so addictive: groove, melody, and pure dancefloor charm.

Driven by sleek drum programming and a teasing vocal loop whispering “I wanna dance with you,” “The Docks” radiates warmth and human touch. Deep chord sequences ripple through the mix, blending with crisp breaks and basslines that glide rather than stomp - it’s elegant and functional, the kind of track that connects the heads and the dancers in equal measure.

There’s something magnetic about Wickham’s approach here - understated yet euphoric, perfectly balancing emotion and movement. “The Docks” is not just another minimal roller; it’s an invitation - one you’ll likely accept without hesitation.

“Digital native. Noun. A person born or brought up during the age of digital technology and so familiar with computers and the Internet from an early age.”

Prime handler of comet powder-fuelled floor heroics for the sun-dazed hours, Melbourne’s Escape Artist made quite the impression with his previous pair of EPs for Salt Mines and much enticing debut tape album for Couch Acid Recordings. Turning up on Kalahari Oyster Cult with his anticipated third outing, ‘Digital Natives’, the Aussie producer pulls out a quartet of old-school ravey pumpers, rife with the usual pack of patented Escape Artist tropes. Kalahari’s 19th oyster is sure to get dancers wading knee-deep in their own sweat as EA takes care of whooshing us off to dreamier Utopian heights in one smooth movement.

Cutting a path of cyber-organic fascination, ‘Another World’ flies us straight off to fantasized tropics where warm swashes of bleached-out pads and roguish acid froth languidly lap at convulsive ridges of breaks-riddled drum programming. Taking the original for a dive into swampy, Chain Reaction’esque depths, Canadian techno deconstructivist Flørist offers a moment of calm before the B-side’s storm.

An all-out dynamic affair, ‘Digital Natives’ cranks up the heat a notch further with its heavy alloy of propulsive electro and ankle-breaking rhythmic outbursts, which shall wreak absolute havoc no matter the hour or place. Rounding off the trip on a jazzy, laid-back after party vibe, ‘Inner City Pressure’ is a vivid mix-&-match of junglistic engineering and ethereal house-ism; a most spitting sum-up of Escape Artist’s playful and versatile approach toward production. Roll the dices and brace yourself, this is some massive magic at work right here.

Kanthor - Mathème EP [SE#004 / Shaded Explorations]

"Mathème is a neologism which the french psychoanalyst Lacan uses to refer to his formulas, derived from the term Mythème (coined by Lévi-Strauss to denote the basic constituents of mythological systems).
The mythème trades in opinion and narrative, in cosmogony and poetic richness. For the mathème, by contrast, it is a question not of opinion but of truth. The mathème is non-narrative, non-hermeneutic, and abstract.
To add a bit of magic, Fjäder reinterprets Mathème with a “Midsummer Night´s Dream” version.
Produced across France, Canada and Portugal between 2015 and 2017, Mathème explores the beauty of choice rather than a balance forever postponed."
