Tasty Techno Volume 1 Matthew Erskine - 10 Missed Calls

Label head Patrick Topping recruits a wide range of modern dance music’s most exciting talents for ‘Tasty Techno Volume One’ on Trick, showcasing his ear for A&R and a willingness to push new names to the world. 

“This is such a special release for Trick. It’s our first time releasing a compilation and it’s two years’ worth of curation, which I think has resulted in such an exciting and unique collection of 22 techno tracks. There’s so many diverse styles here, but they are all unified with the theme of just being exciting and different! I’m so happy with how this has turned out and that Trick again has been able to push so many up and coming artists, as well as welcoming back some regular names and also for a couple of the artists, this is their first-ever release.” - Patrick Topping.

10 Missed Calls

Matthew Erskine - 10 Missed Calls

Whilst we are used to finding the lush anthemic techno of Deetron on our sister label Green. We couldn't be more excited to be welcoming the Swiss artist today with two fresh cuts and a debut, for Rejected.

More suited a Rejected double-header you will struggle to find, as Deetron delivers in outstanding peak time fashion. "Starblazer"  
growls and grooves from the off. The snare rolls announce the piano, and we are treated to an escalating riff, culminating in a classic 'hands in the air' moment.  Bass and piano lead the way on the flip too, as "Solar Surge" certainly brings the heat as its oldskool dubby bassline rolls along and its piercing key riff stab throughout.

Both tracks are set to have a major impact on the summer's floor, as of course one would expect from Deetron productions.

wAFF makes a welcomed return to Hot Creations with three original cuts on his mighty ‘Fat Gash EP’.
Playfully named after his best friend, title track ‘Fat Gash’ is a dancefloor monster with highly infectious vocals, while ‘Shabby’ has powerful keys, sonic builds and rolling percussions. Over on the flip ‘Connected’ is a high energy hitter with smooth vocals and a serious party vibe.

Since releasing his “Rainbows EP’ on Hot Creations in 2012 and following with a number of successful releases and remixes, wAFF has become a staple part of the crew playing with the likes of Jamie Jones, Lee Foss and Richy Ahmed all over the world and is now entering into his third year as resident at DC10 for Paradise. His releases can also be found on labels such as Moon Harbour, Cocoon and Resonance Records. With support from Locodice and Marco Carola, wAFF can also be seen playing parties such as Used & Abused and this year will play Music On at Amnesia.

First release of Shervin Labani's imprint, Room Two. The newly created label based in Brussels, Belgium aims at focusing on the right balance between classical yet forward-looking minimal house and techno.

Two tracks with two distinct statements. Both focused on restoring some forgotten sound while blending it with progressive atmospheres. A1 is an ode to the minimal movement origniating in the begininng of the millenium. A2 is an invitation to conquer new territory and start from a clean sheet.

Mastered by Pheek.

Alcoolic

Alcoolic (Matt Sassari Remix)

Occasionally the stars align to create something truly special. Well, without beating around the bush, that’s what we’ve got for you here. Not only a classic Legowelt hymn that’s ripe for a revisit but three quality remixers (Tuff City Kids, Catz 'N Dogz and Younger Rebinds aka Benny Rodrigues) turning in scandalously good remixes for Cocoon Recordings. Yes, we’re spoiling you...but you’re worth it!

Disco Rout first surfaced in 2002. The electro revival that had ushered in the new millennium was in full swing and this was to prove a seminal tune, being voted track of the year by Groove magazine. As if to prove a point the bass line still grabs you the moment it drops, while the laser-guided melodies feel as relevant today as they ever did. Fusing the past with a neon future, Legowelt’s complex interwoven elements fit like a glove and the clarity of the mix makes everything seem effortless. Maybe that‘s why it’s such a fascinating track to revisit, having already been remixed over the years by the likes of Deetron, Johannes Heil and Freeform Five.

Anyway, this current crop of remixes are equally top notch starting with Tuff City Kids who do what they do best, serving up an organic, conga driven workout complete with percolating synthetic percussion, cut up vocals and silky smooth choral pads. Warping and flanging the original riffs into an infectious, state-of-the-art revamp, they stay true to the retro vibe with added emphasis on the vocal hook for a more pronounced breakdown that briefly trips out before regrouping and taking flight once more. 

Following hot on their heels is a screamer from Catz ’N Dogz who drop the tempo slightly, layering a metallic cowbell motif over a tough, robotic disco groove that adds extra swagger to the bass line. The original parts gradually spiral into view, cranking up the pressure till we hit a solid state of euphoria that in turn, disintegrates into freaky alien chatter. There’s no let up though, as squawking synths lock on to the rhythm and everything evolves into a full-on percussive outro.

So far, so fantastic. You would think there’s nowhere left to go after being blasted into outer space a couple of times already but we’re not done yet. Last but not least, Dutch master Benny Rodrigues aka ROD steps up under his Younger Rebinds alias with even more intensity than demonstrated on last year’s ‘Sound of Benny EP’ on Running Back. Picking apart the original with almost forensic attention to detail, he gives new life to each individual strand with an exhilarating mix that seems destined to leave its mark on dance floors around the globe throughout the summer and beyond. The second of his two remixes is included here, both having featured on a much sought after Cocoon Recordings limited edition white label. Remix two compliments the precision of the first with a more freestyle approach that’s in one hell of a rush to get going. The bass line rips through the mix, hihats scurry toward the cavernous, arpeggiated breakdown and we’re drenched in reverb as the synths dovetail dangerously, all the while paying homage to the hi-octane energy of the original. Rodriguez effortlessly toys with the crowd, frying the synapses and gorging on serotonin, as the mix motors relentlessly to its conclusion.

The Disco Rout remix EP is a shameless riot of sound that succeeds in doing something very special - by staying true to Legowelt’s vision, the artists involved not only demonstrate their notable skills as remixers but reaffirm the quality of a classic and timeless piece of music.
