OECUS Premiere // Patricia Gurband

Extract from "Hypnotized Time" [FLOAT052] @floatrecords
Release date: 11.06.2021

Patricia Gurband debuts at Float Records with a well crafted 4-track EP called Hypnotized Time. The opening track, Hypnotized Time, is a mood swinger that takes you on a journey where two worlds melt in one. Invisible Dancer, the 2nd track has that ultimate loopy groove based structure with subtle percussion elements and goes on and on and on. The 3rd track, After 3AM, is based on a dazzling sleepy sequence with hefty beats. The closing track, Bouncer, has a modest groovy approach, but does show a bit of teeth around the 1 minute mark.

Although based in Berlin for several years, Dustin Zahn has continued to exert influence over the fertile but steadfastly underground Minneapolis techno scene as part of the Intellephunk collective whilst cultivating a worldwide rep via releases for Blueprint, Token and his own Enemy Records. The ‘Gain of Function’ LP sees Zahn channelling the groove-fuelled techno of the late ’90s and early ’00s and shaping eight powerful but funky contemporary techno tracks that display the decades of experience under his belt. 

Forged from a series of live jams with two drum machines and two synths, the album is a refined collection of raw, purist techno brilliance. Across the A-side ‘Tell Me About Paradise’ brings shimmering staccato chops under bright and airy percussion before ‘Tangie Groove’ picks up the pace with floating pads, vocal slices, and a rumbling bassline. On ‘Lucid Dreams’, scattered percussion plays with hypnotic synth licks, while ‘Smoking in Silence’ sees off-kilter leads dancing between emotive vocals and evolving drum loops.

Opening the second disc is the deep and shuffling ‘Crimson Cheeks’, with trance-inducing samples nestled between sharp drum hits and rolling synthesis, and ‘Days Like These’ takes a darker turn as twinkling arps and droning pads carry the track. ‘Shark Rodeo’ featuring Jeremy Black mangles samples into a dense rolling affair, before closing number ‘Next Level Looseness’ drops the 4/4 pattern for a raucous club track, combining oddball sound sources and unruly production techniques for a trippy finish to the album. 

Since the late ’90s, Zahn’s hypnotic and driving techno has consistently caught the ears of top DJs and labels worldwide, with anyone catching his marathon sets at the likes of Berghain exposed to expansive sets. In addition to his techno-heavy catalogue and DJing prowess, Zahn has lent production and engineering skills to bands and singers, recently working with Poliça and on Carm’s Pitchfork approved eponymous album. Beyond this, his vital work with Intellephunk includes the nearly two decades long running Communion after-hours events, cementing his invaluable contributions to the scene.

After recent records by Kobosil, ∑ (Summe), Etapp Kyle and Nitam, Unterton continues its path of presenting young faces with a new EP by Somewhen. With his Null EP the Berlin-born and -grown producer expands his musical repertoire, connecting to the tonal range of his live and DJ sets in and out of Berghain.
The four tracks on the Null EP all share a certain sabulosity: crackling, distorted and unpolished sounds are the EP’s ongoing motifs – sometimes in form of distinguishable effects for melodic or rhythmic elements, sometimes more subliminally arranged in the background. Yet, inbetween there’s much room for stylistic diversity.

The third release of the label showcases the stirring sound of one of its earliest collaborators, Mediane. After their contribution on Various Énervé with Birds Hill, the French duo deliver 3 tracks tailored for the darkest clubs. 

The eponymous opening title ‘2072’ is a beatless ambient track that serves as a perfect intro to the abyssal vibe of the EP. ‘Fraction’ and ‘Aber’ both stand out as hypnotic and relentless beats well suited for peak time on the dancefloor. 

Robert S (PT) delivers his own cut of ‘Fraction’, a contrasting vibe with a similar objective: keep the party’s pulse high, while Moteka closes out the release with a deafening 135bpm remix of ‘2072’.

Out on an ultra-limited series of 12" vinyl and all digital platforms from January 25, 2020.

Tracklist: 

A1. Mediane - 2072 
A2. Mediane - Aber 
A3. Mediane - Fraction 
B1. Mediane - 2072 (Moteka Remix) 
B2. Mediane - Fraction (Robert S (PT) Remix)

Space Travel Records is back with it's strongest release to this date.
National talent Kinenz together with label owners Betty Hill and Process join internationally established artists Michal Jablonski, Temudo, Arnaud Le Texier and Stanislav Tolkachev in a V/A that represents a step forward in our sonic quest as a label, presenting a faster, heavier, and stronger sound through futuristic and mentally inducing tracks. 
Innovative sounds ranging from powerful dancefloor tools to spacial and twisted patterns with intense atmospheres are combined to reflect an evolution in our form that shows a different and harder side of the label’s vision.

An exalting metamorphosis to expand our own limits.

Transfiguration.
