Techno veterans Lucy and Rrose have come together on 'The Lotus Eaters,' a collaborative EP for the former's Stroboscopic Artefacts label. Ahead of its release on October 21, the moody chimes of "Stained Glass" debuted on RBMA Radio's First Floor, our weekly look at what's new in electronic music.

Lucy & Rrose - Stained Glass [First Floor Premiere]

Barker & Baumecker take Turns from techno, bass, breaks, and experimental terrain with their second album on Ostgut Ton.

Sam Barker and Andreas Baumecker’s lives have always revolved around different kinds of music. That’s partly why their productions as Barker & Baumecker are more unpredictable, harder to pin down than what you might expect from a label borne out of a techno club. And while their music is clearly built for dancing, listening to it reveals a deep love and respect for many forms of electronic music – bonding over more experimental dance forms is what brought them together in the first place. Imagining their music at any decent club, but disrupting the flow on the floor is what brings us to their second album Turns. An amalgamation of their unique musical minds, transcending electronic music genres and styles, while further developing and refining the Barker & Baumecker sound aesthetic.

For this pre-listening playlist, to give a better impression of the lengthy album tracks, we skipped through different parts of the songs (beginning, middle and end) and edited the samples into these single sound clips, condensing the up to 13:50 min long tracks (Statik) into 2:00 to 3:00 min edits.

Tracklisting 2xLP:
A1. Senden (12:50)
A2. Encipher (2:20)
B1. Decipher (4:35) 
B2. Club Entropicana (11:08)
C1. Technogate (0:39)
C2. Turnhalle (7:26)
C3. Nocturnal (8:59)
D. Statik (13:50)

Today the musical vision offered by Berghain resident @AnswerCodeRequest, real name Patrick Gräser, has proved far-sighted. While at first glance electronic music in 2018 seems increasingly balkanized, borders between genres have once again become fuzzier. Now, on his follow up LP ‘Gens’, Gräser looks beyond the bass euphoria of his debut album ‘Code’ (Ostgut Ton, 2014) toward darker horizons and a desolate atmosphere befitting of current global circumstances.
