5- Aire Silencioso / Digital Bonus Track


Brand new EP from the boss showcasing his new perspective and vision about techno along five cuts. Oscar Mulero’s sound it’s always changing and evolving, it can be physical and muscular or deep and sci-fi or both at the same time as this record shows.


On this occasion spanish titles explain the feeling of each track perfectly, Flujo Fatal is the first slice, Fatal Flow in english, a mental and deep voyage into intelligent techno: full of detail but with an energetic pulse below that activates the dance while the mind is traveling in unveiled territories.


Nueva y Oscura Era is the second cut, fast and obsessive, with detailed percussive elements crossing the stereo field while continuous synth lines run over the precise beat. An ideal mix tool for the peak time hours in the dancefloor.


Noches de Menta reminds us of the good old Birmingham days, intense, rugged and fast. Minimal in the components and pristine in the sound processing. Music for those who dance with closed eyes in the shadows and strobe lights.


Dos Esqueletos is the last cut on vinyl, an elastic and liquid piece made of shuffled rhythms almost 90% percussive. Perfect mixing tool for those who know.


On the digital release appears an extra track called Aire Silencioso, sibilant and resonant textures fly on the high part of the sound spectrum while a compact groove keeps the pace for a full physical experience. The extreme frequency treatment will cause waves in people's minds while dancing … immersive and expansive at the same time.


ESPAÑOL


Nuevo EP del jefe que muestra su nueva perspectiva y visión sobre el techno a lo largo de cinco cortes. El sonido de Oscar Mulero siempre está cambiando y evolucionando, puede ser físico y musculoso o profundo y de ciencia ficción o ambos a la vez como muestra este disco.


En esta ocasión los títulos en español explican a la perfección el sentimiento de cada track, Flujo Fatal es la primera rebanada, Fatal Flow en inglés, un viaje mental y profundo al techno inteligente: lleno de detalles pero con un pulso enérgico debajo que activa el baile mientras la mente está viajando en territorios desconocidos..


Nueva y Oscura Era es el segundo corte, rápido y obsesivo, con elementos de percusión detallados que cruzan el campo estéreo mientras líneas continuas de sintetizador acompañan el ritmo preciso. Una herramienta de mezcla ideal para las horas clave en la pista de baile.


Noches de Menta nos recuerda los buenos tiempos de Birmingham, intensos, duros y rápidos. Mínimo en los componentes y prístino en el procesamiento de sonido. Música para los que bailan con los ojos cerrados en las sombras y luces estroboscópicas.


Dos Esqueletos es el último corte en vinilo, una pieza elástica y líquida hecha de ritmos muy trabajados con casi un 90% de percusión. Perfecta para combinar en mezclas largas.


En el lanzamiento digital aparece una pista extra llamada Aire Silencioso, texturas sibilantes y resonantes vuelan en la parte alta del espectro de sonido mientras que un ritmo compacto mantiene el ritmo para una experiencia física completa. El tratamiento extremo de las frecuencias excitará las ondas cerebrales en la mente de los danzantes:  inmersivo y expansivo al mismo tiempo.

Digital
1- Anamorfosi
2- Liquidazione
3- Isocrono
4- Decomposizione
5- Elaborazione


Scifi maestro Divide is back again in our sound factory providing five fine exercises of scientific and intrincated techno.

The space trip begins with Anamorfosi, totally beatless, with several asymmetrical synth lines running against each other in a complex experiment that serves to introduce what comes next.

Liquidazione goes straight into dancefloor action with a stomping groove with the appropriate dose of distortion with cosmic and rugged sequences running on top spiced with lots of sound design details. 

Isocrono closes A side with a similar sound palette but this time introducing the elements progressively until all action takes place. Obsessive, mental and rude at the same time.

Flipping the vinyl comes Decomposizione, merciless beat, wisely administered distortion and detailed sou8nd design to create a pure mix weapon.

Last cut is Elaborazione, again enforced drums in charge of the groove with sibilant synthesized components filling the stereo field. The arrangement is constantly changing and evolving, surprising the dancer with imprevisible twists.

One more proof of the expertise that this producer showcases on each of his works.

Dimi Angelis
A Journal of Impossible Things
 
1. Dimi Angélis - The Exchange of Gases
2. Dimi Angélis - Slichten
3. Dimi Angélis - Nictitating Membrane
4. Dimi Angélis - Extraterrestrial

Here we have again on command the dutch 909 maestro Dimi Angelis, providing four cuts of alien and stripped down techno cooked with a few elements and a lot of knowledge in his home studio in Amsterdam.

Dimmi’s sound is always precise, scientific but somehow punk and gritty and that’s exactly what transmits the first cut is this Ep, The Exchange of Gases combines bleeps and distortion with the rhythm conduction of a minimal 909 beat.

Slichten goes from outer space to Birmingham with an industrial repetitive sequence running relentlessly over again a basic 909 pattern. Repetition is here the key to success when used properly as a tool by experienced dj’s out there.

Nictitating Membrane returns to scfi feelings again spiced with the right dose of distortion and roughness. The hypnotic bleep penetrates your mind while the dirty sound of the old drum machine sets the pace for your feet. Special mention to the occasional resonant sweep that appears from time to time creating the required tension.

Extraterrestrial reminds us of the sound of a space destructor attacking some invader ships Somewhere in the far reaches of the galaxy.

A powerful demonstration of how real techno should be, stripped down, intelligent and nasty, why not.

1. Ammassi 
2. Associazioni Stellari 
3. Centro di Massa
 4. Ellissi 
5. Gas 
6. Polveri 
7. Sistemi
 8. Spettro


Sci Fi techno alchemist Evod returns to the team with this extended work, the soundtrack of an interstellar voyage to the realms of the unknown.

First exercise Ammassi is a composition of bleeps and crispy textures, highly reverberated and running over a soft kick that sets the pace. As minutes go by the frequencies go busier and evolve in complexity.

Associazioni Stellari puts asymmetrical sequences and lots of shuffle into the equation, special mention to the exquisite 909 workout.

Centro di Massa introduces distortion and roughness but yet preserving the abstract and spatial feel. this one will cause some damage in the finest dancefloors out there.

Ellissi slows down the BPM rate, adds some dubby landscapes but still gives the feeling of non gravity with a scientific approach.

Gas sets the spaceship in dance mode again, emphasizing the higher frequencies and alien percussions in a totally crazy sound adventure that is always mutating.

Things go totally abstract in Polveri, an electronic jazz experiment putting again the 909 to its limits. The sub bass that comes in the middle will blow some speakers for sure.

Sistemi is a pure robotic dance tool, exquisite for being used as a layer in the hands of proper dj’s. Asymmetry is the key here.

Last but not least Spettro closes the tracklist with the energy levels peaking at the maximum. Rude, solid and ethereal at the same time.

Always a pleasure to have proper space commanders in our command station.

------

El alquimista tecnológico de ciencia ficción Evod regresa al equipo con este trabajo extendido, la banda sonora de un viaje interestelar a los reinos de lo desconocido.

El primer ejercicio Ammassi es una composición de bleeps y texturas crujientes, muy reverberadas, discurriendo sobre un bombo suave que marca el ritmo. A medida que pasan los minutos, las frecuencias se vuelven más obsesivas  y evolucionan en complejidad.

Associazioni Stellari suma secuencias asimétricas y mucha ritmo en la ecuación, mención especial al exquisito trabajo de  909.

Centro di Massa introduce distorsión y rugosidad, pero conservando la sensación abstracta y espacial. Esto causará mucho daño en las mejores pistas de baile inteligentes.

Ellissi reduce la velocidad de BPM, agrega algunos paisajes de sabor dub pero aún así da la sensación de no gravedad con un enfoque científico.

Gas vuelve a poner la nave espacial en modo baile, enfatizando las frecuencias más altas y las percusiones alienígenas en una aventura sonora totalmente desquiciada que muta contínuamente.

Las cosas se vuelven totalmente abstractas en Polveri, un experimento de jazz electrónico que lleva de nuevo al 909 a sus límites. El subgrave que viene en el medio seguramente hará reventar algunos altavoces.

Sistemi es una herramienta de baile robótica pura, exquisita para ser utilizada como una capa en manos de los dj 's adecuados. La asimetría es la clave.

Por último, pero no menos importante, Spettro cierra la lista de canciones con los niveles de energía al máximo. Rudo, sólido y etéreo a la vez.

Siempre es un placer tener comandantes espaciales adecuados en nuestra estación de mando.

5- Inside trauma

Kessell is back at home with a powerful EP plus a bonus digital track on the digital edition. There is no need to remind everyone that Valentín Corujo is one of the most experienced producers on the techno scene. And this new work is the sonic proof.

Nothing left to say opens fire with distorted broken beats soon aligned by a solid 4/4 groove. The harsh sounds run across the stereo field wisely while the beat goes relentless. A powerful and raw peak time tool.

All that matters is the second cut,  beginning with a bass heavy groove, sibilant and distorted at the same time until the additional percussive parts appear and the subterranean bass turns into distorted hypnosis as the bars go on. An intense and obsessive piece of rugged techno.

On the B side, Descending Darkness, an industrial funk workout made of continuous distorted sequences and an enforced drum beat. No sign of breakdowns or epic moments, just a continuous drill for your neurons.

Cyclical Nature goes scifi and mental, with reverberated sequences running over a solid cemented pattern the spiral sequence turns into overdriven madness as the track goes combining aggression with futurism.

Inside Trauma uses broken beats as a basement, one of Kessell’s personal signatures when working on his side project Exium.

Another stepping stone on a solid and long career for this excellent creator.

5- Animal Noise
6- Green Eye

Endplate is back after his excellent Gemini EP from 2020. The andalusian expert gives us four exercises of proper driving techno with an excellent sonic craft.

Unreal opens this slice of plastic with a repetitive and elastic line grooving across the precise beat. The main synth line changes in intensity along the development of the track playing wisely with the percussive elements to create the required feeling.

On PMMM the rhythm goes dirty and pulsating, gummy sequences come along a n intense drum pattern heavily reverberated and processed.

The flip side opens with,  No Success Street, starting with a voice-like sound, obsessive and intense with an opaque bass drum as foundation. Sibilant drones add tension to the formula, increasing the adrenaline levels as the track goes into total madness.

Malenia closes the physical edition with echoed drums and loads of reverb. The drums go solo for the first bars, being filtered and processed constantly. A superb tool to add tension to a busy set.

As the first bonus digital track, Animal Noise, dirty and screamy, a dystopic hymn for the proper morning routine at Berghain for example.

To end the digital version, Green Eye, direct and punchy, with the right dose of drum pressure on a 90% rhythmic track, again a tool for those to know how to use them.

Techno with no jokes inside, from the makers to the real players.

Oscar Mulero's DJ career has been as prolific and long lasting as the evolution of dance music. As a key figure in its development, Oscar has always absorbed new trends and kept his finger on the pulse of electronic dance music, from the end of the 80’s right up to the present day. It is impossible to understand his genius without taking into account the tireless work he has carried out behind the decks for over two decades. Production-wise he's been releasing records since the late 90’s, with countless 12" vinyls and several studio albums, as well as many remixes for the best players in the scene.

He runs Warm Up, his very own imprint, since 2000 as well as the label PoleGroup Records since 2004, both of which have reached the 50 releases mark. On 2013 he started a series of live A/V performances under several project names like Light and Dark, Biolive and Monochrome AV.

In 2019 he will celebrate his thirty-year career with a very special secret lineup party in Madrid that will be much talked about because of its concept and the quality of the guests.
