Mexico’s leading underground Duro Label is back with another incandescent EP, this time from Torreón based producer Macualay, who serves up fine three original deviant house cuts with a remix from Fabio Me Llaman Soltero.

During last year's confinement, using the lowest lo-budget equipment and a microphone of dubious provenance, Macaulay together with his bastard clone DJ Papi created a new EP full of corrugated house, heavy kicks, fleshy basses and highly impure synths.

Opening the pleasure feast is ‘A Gozar’, a six-minute roller with ghostly buried synths, narcotic voices over heavy drums and chubby bass. “Latinon”, the second original track and the first of the two collaborations with DJ Papi, is a HOT, clear example of Mexico's tech-mex sound at it's finest: an anthem for the sexy young souls of the forbidden latin warehouse party scene.

Up next comes “Meneitous”, a lewd lesson in total tension that takes the dancefloor to darker places. On the remix duties, Guatemala’s papi Fabio Me Llaman Soltero delivers a chunky tribal beat running through flailing percussion, delayed vocal sounds, and uncontrolled synths.

Bring the fanfares, Fast Castle number one has landed: We are launching into the world of wax with “Unique Technologies” – a collection of five bass-heavy, versatile and trip-ready tracks.

Much of Fast Castle is still shrouded in pixelated darkness. This first release offers a glimpse on what this weird-world might shed light on next: From polyrhythmic bass & drum flexing, to dubstep-not-dubstep exercises in sound system science and past-midnight gaze music, our map is expansive and full of surprises.

The essence of countless hours spent soul searching & synapse twisting in the confines of our studio shed in Berlin’s outer ring territories, „Unique Technologies“ is the first building block of our humble castle. Cut to thick rotating discs for maximum bass range response and housed in a printed sleeve, FC01 is strictly limited to two hundred copies. Shouts to Lupo for the cut, Olo for the mastering and Jonas at 200 Kilo for the design

Look out for the magical cheat code inscribed in the runout!

FC01 - Fast Castle - Unique Technologies (Snippets)

Could planet Earth be considered a living being? And if so, could it be seen as the physical vessel of a planetary-level spiritual entity? Ancient Hinduism believed so and expounded it in The Upanishads: a collection of early sacred texts where such entity was named Sanat Kumara and inhabited the very center of the Earth, lodged in the wondrous city of Shamballa - these beliefs were later appropriated by western New Age sects of the early 20th century and turned into all manner of silly representations and distortions. 

The idea of a conscious, thinking spirit at the centre of Earth's movements, cycles and magnanimous energy was the inspiration for the opening track on the second naive release by Photonz; accordingly, the tittle-track "Planetary Spirit" is an explosion of modulating energy and rhythm ready to blow raver's into gosebumps territory and full-on techno hysteria. Followed by "Badagas", the EP moves into brainy-but-percussive territory, full of synthetic resonant drums and UK bass sensibility. 

On the flip we've got "Circumference", a driving and hypnotic techno track with synthesized bubble motifs and a steady four-to-the-floor beat. Ending things on a more leftfield tip, Photonz merges early Earth drone bass with Claro Intelecto-style FM bass and slowed-down latin funk rhythms on the true-to-theme track "Earth 2". 

Release date: Dec 3
