Boot & Tax - Brace Brace

Among all the untold trends that rise and fall in house and techno, Kompakt just keeps on keeping on; always varied, but held together around an unending flow of incredibly pure, incredibly powerful, elemental dancefloor forces. It's also a constantly collaborative venture, its core artists constantly combining and recombining to keep the basic template fresh, and here we're very happy to see two of the label owners Michael Mayer and Reinhard Voigt (younger brother of the mighty Wolfgang) on a split release. Mayer's track is, surprise surprise, an absolutely classic Kompakt banger.

Out Now! 

After a strong run of EPs in recent times, the bosses of the much loved Canadian label My
Favorite Robot return again to their own imprint with a strong follow-up release to their Glass To The End EP released earlier this year.

The accomplished trio of Jared Simms, James Teej and Voytek Korab has become synonymous with emotive, synth heavy tracks that are much more than functional club offerings. As well as releasing on their own label, they have dropped releases on the likes of Sasha's Last Night on Earth, No.19 Music, Visionquest, and Life & Death.

The Panoptikon EP, named after a type of institutional building designed by English philosopher and social theorist Jeremy Bentham in the late 18th century. The concept of the design is to allow a single watchman to observe inmates of an institution without the inmates being able to tell whether or not they are being watched. Although it is physically impossible for the single watchman to observe all cells at once, the fact that the inmates cannot know when they are being watched means that all inmates must act as though they are watched at all times, effectively controlling their own behaviour constantly. This EP plays deeply with this idea in typical robot fashion.

Stunning opener 'Cast' is an epic techno influenced house track, lush with shimmering synths and live drums creating tension, much in the spirit of 90's electronica. Breaking through like sun through cloud, though, are brightly glowing chords that really add a celestial air to proceedings, with powerful vocals sprinkled throughout deepening the story. It's a refreshingly original track that sounds like little else and is sure to make for some standout moments on the floor in the coming weeks.

Then comes 'Manifesto,' a playful mid tempo prowler with myriad synths squealing, glowing and spread through the arrangement. You are trapped right at the heart of it all as these spritely lines bring a real sense of life and colour to the track, as well as imbuing it with a sombre sense of futurism. At the center of the recording is a tongue in cheek vocal that intones "selling out is the new underground", bringing a true light heartedness to proceedings while balancing the darker elements. The track's apex delivers in true My Favorite Robot spirit, and solidly brings the whole trip back down to earth resulting in a truly unique experience.

This is a small but perfectly formed two track EP that once again showcases the trio's ability to make genuine, emotionally resonant electronic music sure to stand the test of time.

Pom Pom Boy wants to play and make you dance. Any booking propositions welcome...

Broadcasting producer on radio France Inter, helpless clubber and electronic music activist, Antoine Dabrowski has waited his 30th to get himself turntables and turn himself into Pom Pom Boy, cheerleader-DJ of a groovy and sexy minimal techno. Since then he has mixed at Rex Club, Point Ephémère, Villette Enchantée, Chez Moune, at the InFiné Workshop at the Carrière du Normandoux, at Rouge Pigalle, next to Rone, Maxime Iko, Arandel, Bruno Pronsato, Molly, Remote, Monoblok & Pussyslktr, Tomas More or Shlomi Aber.

May 2011, he becomes a member of Collectif Cancan, accountable for the wild and chic Cockorico parties. But as radio will always be close to his heart he also talks about music on Radio Campus Paris, or becomes Dr Beat on radio Le Mouv' and talks about night life on France Inter.
