Techno/electro

Cititrax proudly presents a new project called An-i, the latest musical moniker for Berlin based former New Yorker Doug Lee. Doug has been DJing and producing records for the last decade under various aliases and collaborations. The Kino-i EP will be the debut release and home for An-i, a showcase of his love affair with machines. It fronts a hard hitting sound beyond category, moving from techno to jack to punk and to noise. It suggests an anything goes attitude perhaps dictated more by the will of machines themselves then any author. The record is pressed on 160 gram fluorescent yellow vinyl and housed in a high gloss black and white sleeve. Note: US release accompanied by full b+w newsprint poster.

An-i - Kino i (Dub)

Number #121 from my lovely NYC based friend @como-se-dj. A beautiful mix of lush, deep, rolling sounds as he tests out a new side of his dj'ing with layering & long form blends.

Enchanting percussion & delicate melodies strung together in the form of an undulating mind massage - such a beautiful mix! 

Thanks for the mix Paul <3

Garnier – BA371 EP
HYPE039

1. ENCHANTé
2. pǝsnɟuoɔ

Order 12":  http://goo.gl/kJ4LNX
Digital release date: 15th September 2014 (Beatport 2 week exclusive)

Late in 2013, French DJ and producer extraordinaire, Laurent Garnier, decided on a plan to get his music reaching out to the very corners of the underground music scene. Rather than self-releasing, or opting for the tried and tested labels, Garnier decided to plump for a selection of independent record labels from different countries that he greatly respected and supported, each one with their own strong identity and fan base, and to go under the moniker ‘Garnier’ for these projects. Opening his account on Chicago’s Still Music in February 2014, with the ‘AF0490’ single, the electronic stalwart has since gone on to issue singles on Modeselektor’s 50 Weapons (‘AF4302’ EP), Musique Large (‘A13’) and the MCDE label (‘KL2036’ EP).

A huge supporter of Hypercolour over the years, and perhaps an embracing of the British label’s dedication to the ‘UK sound’ (considering the Frenchman’s early deployment to Manchester’s legendary Hacienda club in the late 80s as resident DJ), it’s of little surprise then that the fifth Garnier project lands on Hypercolour this August.

Two stellar tracks then from Garnier; ‘ENCHANTé’ is an epic 122BPM chugger, its soaring and pitch bending strings, rasping keys and filtered vocals providing plenty of melancholic melody and classic electronic vibes, whilst a swinging drum pattern keeps things nice and tight. A big tune from Garnier here, sitting very snuggly with his legendary track, ‘The Man with the Red Face’, we’re expecting this one to ring out across dancefloors far and wide over the coming months….

On the flip, ‘pǝsnɟuoɔ’ goes straight for the jugular; a pumping techno workout with scattering and inter-galactic bleep-work, thunderous effects, and with a heady nod to the sounds of Detroit’s minimalists Robert Hood and Jeff Mills. Battering 909 snares are offset with the warm and harmonic choir pads, a killer slice of techno from one of the scene’s most switched on and in tune godfathers!

Words by Ceci (@ccl-url): 

"Special thanks to Steevio & Suzybee & all the volunteers, workers & dancers 💙

This is my recording from Friday night Room 2, 12:30-2am, my first time being at the mythical Free Rotation. Playing one of the first sets & seeing the room, decor and the big bad subs of Room 2, years of fantastical lore and reality melded, I wanted to keep it sexy, wonky, trippy— imagining a psychic electric swamp and how one would levitate thru it... to the sky. No bpm trickery this time. Out to the heavenly bodies of the universe! ;)

Of Paradise - 22nd November 2024

South London-based DJ benk0 (@benkos) delivers a captivating hour-and-a-half warm-up set, recorded live at Venue MOT on New Year’s Eve.

This set, the first of the night before Oma Totem took the stage, is a slow-burning ride through deep, percussive, dubby, and atmospheric textures. As the mix unfolds, it steadily builds in tempo and energy, reflecting the room’s transformation from empty to buzzing with life.

Revisiting this set always brings back the excitement of that night, as the crowd grew and the energy built with each track, which is why I love to play and experience good warm-up sets.

Milan-based Piezo (@piezopz) sits at the heart of the current club sounds. He has long had an obsession with sound system music and that defines what he does today: mutant and beguiling club tracks with meticulous sound design and thrilling energy, heavy low ends and a real dose of UK influence from d&b to garage, grime and techno. He kicked off the year by dropping his genre-busting Ecstatic Nostalgia EP on our Dekmantel-UFO sub-label and now returns with a podcast that is just as fresh.

It's a futuristic mix of bleeping machines and lurching rhythms with bright synth designs and deep space ambience. Over the course of 90 minutes, the pace picks up and you're whisked along a variety of rhythms from broken to dubby, head spinning to minimal. It feels utterly spontaneous but is also a fully coherent mix from this restless innovator.

Location: Montréal, QC

About the Mix: 

My parents took me on my first camping trip when I was 3 years old. It wasn’t until I was 30 that I attended my first camping festival. Three weeks after that I attended my second camping festival, Bohême Système, where I played and recorded this mix.

I grew up in a rural place and spent a lot of time in nature. My personal connection to nature was one of few things (along with music) that felt truly genuine to me before I fully embraced my queerness. That impacted the way I approached playing and the mix that resulted in really felt like me at my fullest. I've been sharing it around privately, but when Iris asked me to make a mix for ULA something clicked and releasing this just felt right.

This mix is from 2023. Bohême Système didn’t happen in its regular sense in 2024, but I hear that they will be back in full force for 2025!
