For Secret Thirteen journal we have worked on a special slowed down techno recording in the spirit of the live sets we have did for Polar Inertia’s recent exhibitions in Brussels and CCA, Tbilisi.

A couple of months ago we have changed all our gear and equipment, and collected new machines but somehow never had enough time to meet altogether and wire them. Finally, we have decided to hook up our new musical gear and equipment to improvise the future of Polar Inertia’s sound.

It was one of those studio jams you do not want to rush to. We took our time. Slowed down the tempo to 112 bpm and sent all synths through a multitrack recorder to catch every moment of the jam session. During hours of knob twisting we went through several states of mind and different styles.

What we are sharing with Secret Thirteen readers is an edited version of what happened that night.

Analogue Podcast #018 | ANFS

Will and Persistence against Vitamin B Deficit
Masses over masses try themselves at being a DJ and in the production of techno. Being a newcomer in this overcrowded market doesn't seem appealing at first sight. Putting in a lot of effort to establish one's reputation is not everyone's cup of tea. To stand out of the masses one must buckle down or have the proper Vitamin B. When Vitamins are lacking, what especially counts are a strong will and persistence. Those are guarantors for the opportunity to exhibit one's talent eventually. The rise of Krenzlin followed this principle on one of the surest Newcomer-Floors in the world. After Sebastian Krenzlin started DJing in 2003, it took several years for him to eventually be discovered as a newcomer after his participation at the Tresor Award of Pacou in 2009. Since he played in the Tresor for the first time in September 2010, he is counted among the steady Ensemble of Berlin's legendary club.
With the series of events „New Faces“ and three allies he forms a platform for the performance of new faces. Every first Wednesday in the month he starts his own special event under this flag seeking for new talents who impersonate this spirit.
Even as a producer Krenzlin build up a reputation since 2011. If one reads the list of labels under which he has released since, it is hard to believe that such a fantastic discography can be formed in this short amount of time. With Synewave,Nachtstrom Schallplatten,Driving Forces Recordings,Starkstrom Schallplatten, Mastertraxx Records, Slap Jaxx or IF?Records the best pools for exceptional, underground profiles of techno-acts of the last years string together. In the spring of 2012 a co-production with 88uw and Synewave followed and came like a bombshell exactly like the one countless times before in the Tresor...

Reclaim Your City 147 | UVB (Marseille)

UVB is the pseudonym of the French DJ and producer Sébastien Michel. He grew up with the passion for music and focused his attention on electronic music in 2011 when he first decided to start producing .

In the meantime, he started his DJ project in his home city, Marseille, playing in underground places and delivering his own vision of Techno Music. Late 2012, he worked on several music projects in different styles of electronic music which comforted him in his choice for raw and hard tones.

In 2013, UVB concentrated on his techno project, started to develop his own version of a live which is a dj set only composed of his own productions, and played it at clubs in Berlin (Urban Spree, Tresor). His first EP was released on the Rotterdam based label MORD Records in June 2014 and has been supported by some of the biggest names of the Techno scene such as Surgeon, Marcel Dettmann, Lucy or even Tommy Four Seven. UVB’s sound combines energetics tones with intricate rhythms, and always focuses on a true rave feeling by its functionality and its rawness.

Ostgut Ton’s Berghain mix series returns with volume 08 by Fiedel. Available on 12” vinyl are four new exclusive tracks by Electric Indigo, Stefan Rein, rRoxymore and Boris & Fiedel. 

Few figures in Berlin dance music can claim as lasting and multifaceted a presence as longtime Berghain resident Fiedel. A former resident at Berghain forerunner OstGut, the veteran DJ and producer is known by heads for his decades-long influence on left-field techno and bass music in the German capital, particularly as one half of celebrated production duo MMM with Errorsmith, and co-operator of the legendary Wax Treatment parties together with Mark Ernestus of Hard Wax and Basic Channel fame. Indeed, Fiedel’s broad vision of what works on the dance floor is informed by grooves both in and outside the realm of 4/4 – from, acid, electro and jungle to hip-hop, dub und breaks – all subtly present in hybrid forms on previous releases for Ostgut Ton and his own Fiedelone and Fiedeltwo imprints. So it makes sense that the four exclusive tracks he has curated for the 8th edition of the Berghain mix series radiate the same off-kilter, bass-heavy and deep techno sensibility. 

Veteran Viennese producer, activist and DJ Electric Indigo kicks blasts things off with “Registers”, employing her trademark dubby and sample-heavy rhythmic constructions, minor chords and distorted hats. Driving and atmospheric, “Registers” sets the bar high not only for the 12-inch but also as the explosive opener for the mix itself. This is followed on A2 by PURE-TRAXX founder Stefan Rein, whose deep, hypnotic “Panther” transcends techno-tool status with entrancing siren melodies and psychedelic builds and releases. 

French-born, Berlin-based producer rRoxymore takes a sonic left turn on B-Side opener “Tropicalcore”, where bleepy, distorted and complex drum patterns recall both classic DMZ and later post-dubstep funk. Finally, B2 belongs to Fiedel himself, who teams up with fellow veteran Berghain resident and Berlin techno stalwart Boris on “Div’hain”. The track teems with with bubbling bass-lines, cowbells and claps shaped by modular synths, as well as elements of electro and boogie – but jacks hard. It’s a fitting closer to one of the mix series’ most eclectic 12-inches – made by one of Berghain’s most fearless residents.

The human connection is the key to personal and career success. 3KZ (Z.i.p.p.o. & Kaelan) is the perfect example of how two great minds can connect and relate to the world with sounds that have no description. The beauty of it comes once you put down the needle and immerse yourself to listen deeply to the brilliant music that this project represents. Hardwax commented it as "Perfect, immense, Z.I.P.P.O & Kaelan prod. Acid Techno rhapsody" we don't have nothing more to add.

Polar Inertia [ DEMENT3D ] France

This Live set was recorded some time ago at somewhere near Paris. It was a mysterious night, only those who were there know about this.

Polar Inertia is a hazy and oracular entity, that positions itself as a
complex faction whose work is influenced by the sci-fi mythology surrounding techno music.
Since its creation, Polar Inertia multiplies various artistic collaborations, which are gradually incorporated in the thick fog that conceals
dissimulate the exact nature and extent of its activities.
Beyond the music and the records, the members of Polar Inertia are also the authors of texts, photographic works, printed artworks and specific live performances for different context.
They have often been invited to contribute to various revues, editions or art books. Their course of creation thus takes the direction of a polymorphic artistic process, bound to evolve in various fields of contemporary creation.

Roan - Verteil-7 (KALT VA02)

Prodigal Son Records was established in 2015, after working on other labels, most importantly, it was something Chris Stanford could really call his own, its sound, its concept, its feeling. Growing up reading comics as a kid, the artwork had to be illustrative. The artwork is brought to life by talented sketchers and illustrators, but the brief is always Chris’s vision telling the story of a  modern, roughneck Prodigal Son with imagery on a dystopian setting. There is a level of quality control with the music, along with the community of artists slowly building over time, hence the slow output in the early years. Unless it’s somebody Chris has met in person or somebody he can envision being a part of the family and the identity of the label, there's only a small chance of on boarding. This may seem unjust to some, but loyalty and relationships built over years is important for developing the labels journey. It is more than likely you will see acts returning to release on the imprint time and time again. Chris finds it fascinating to see how the producers and remixers he’s worked with build on their own sounds and identities, developing as time moves on.

The labels style is much based on the influences Chris carries into his own style of djing techno. Elements of dark, moody, rawness with rowdy drums and menacing percussion that keeps the flow going strong. Also, he believes music needs to tell some sort of story otherwise what's the point?! Too dull & deep, sends you to sleep... Too relentless becomes hopeless... but a balanced variety is possible, whilst staying true to your sound. It’s important to remember the sound you are trying to project will come naturally if you stick to releasing & playing what you want to hear, as much as it is about making the dance floor move. By no means should we digest what practically is the same, yet again in disguise. 

2020 will see Prodigal Son reach its 5 year milestone having featured producers & remixers such as... Sept, Kas:st, Stephanie Sykes, Jokasti & Nek, Exal, Sosak, Insolate & Arnaud Le Texier, Joe Farr, Inland, Ansome, Inigo Kennedy, A. Morgan, Kaylah, Edit Select, Hector Oaks, He/aT, Nendza, Escape To Mars, Dyad, Setoac Mass, Codex Empire. The trip feels like it's still only getting started and has a whole lot to come….
