HÖR BERLIN - Part 1

Natural Phase - YellowJacket

Void Atelier-Song to the Siren [MUTANT REBELS]

For all the Acid that is coming out through this so-called "Acid revival" I was somehow missing the good old hook of the 90s Acid-Techno tracks. After countless requests to do some new Acid again it finally clicked with me and I had this - in my opinion - great Acid hook to jump along to for the Acid To The Future track. I really love this one and it could've been big in the 90s I guess...so hopefully this will click with the listeners also today :-) Acid Funk and Acid Jaxx pretty much speak for themselves and are funky groovin' Acid tracks with a more modern touch mixed with the old vibe flavour. Machine Banger is definitely on the harder side and was done for Ferox' This is Acid... Nothing else" VA compilaton on Kobayashi.Hands up and have fun...

[PRSON002] Stephanie Sykes (with Ansome & Edit Select remixes)

As we turn to the next episode. Eric arranged to meet his father in a cold abandoned warehouse on an industrial estate on the other side of town, a building he knew only too well from just a couple years back. He’d been hanging out with his squatter mates and this is one of a few places they’d frequent. He’d been up to no good well that’s what his father used to say anyway. “I knew you’d come to nothing, you little piece of shit” his father said. “I gave everything to you and this is how you treat me, you ungrateful backstabbing waste of space”, as he sat there cable tied to an old wooden chair, rocking on its uneven legs, now knowing he had been lured under false pretences. “But did you really give me everything?”, Eric said as he sat there staring at canvas sack that covered his father’s disturbed and angered face, whilst he held his gun casually on his lap contemplating his next move…

The soundtrack is the first contribution by Stephanie Sykes of the Midlands, UK. With a history behind her connection to Prodigal Son, she steps up with two of her most impactful pieces to date, “Walking Alone” & “Glimmer Of Existence”. A mind full of inspiration, of sounds taken in from recent ventures and a wealth of experience from her residencies. Having had a very special 2016 this is only the beginning for Stephanie and a sampler for what’s to come. Her tracks are remixed on the flipside of the record, the brutality of South Londoner, Ansome, with his version of “Walking Alone”. Then the melodies of “Glimmer Of Existence” takes a philharmonic reworking from one of Glasgow’s finest Edit Select.

Vladimir Dubyshkin - LOSE YOURSELF ORIGINAL MIX

Over two decades have passed since The Mover AKA Marc Acardipane made his first appearance to the world of electronic dance music. Under the wings of Planet Core Productions (PCP) his releases spoke for themselves and he quickly earned a special pioneer status and cult following. The Mover was always a unique sound leaning towards the edge of darkness and abstract characteristics. 

With several releases on his co-owned label PCP as well as R&S Records and Tresor he always managed to create unforgettable milestones of raw, apocalyptic yet danceable tunes that have remained timeless and individual until today.

With „The Mover - Selected Classics (Remastered 2017)“ on his freshly launched label „Planet Phuture“ he returns to the surface and shakes the world with a compelling assortment of the most impactful tracks in a remastered, fresh sound quality. Experience an uncompromising dystopia with tracks like „Nightflight (Nonstop 2 Kaos)“, „Into Wasteland“ or „We Have Arrived“. „Astral Demons“, „Waves Of Life“ or „Spirit Slasher“ will pull you deeper into the center of your subconscious mind and certainly leave you dazzled.

„The Mover - Selected Classics“ is unquestionably one of those releases that can’t be ignored and must be a part of everyones Techno collection!

Radio Slave welcomes UK techno talent Roberto to Rekids to deliver the latest instalment in the ‘Special Projects’ series as he opens 2019 with his ‘Let’s Be Free’ EP.

Based in London, Roberto aka Rob Kirkaldy is one of the latest names of note to emerge from the capital’s ever-impressing electronic music scene having showcased his rich blend of deep and immersing techno via a host of esteemed imprints including ARTS, Fachwerk and his own label Fossil Archive, founded in 2015, in recent years. Following a string of performances across revered establishments including fabric, Tresor, Culture Box and Berghain, 2019 will open with a debut outing on Radio Slave’s Rekids imprint as he delivers four entrancing techno cuts in the form of his ‘Let’s Be Free’ EP, set to drop in late January as part of the label’s Special Projects series.

‘The Jester’ opens the EP as Kirkaldy fuses slick, crisp percussion amongst murky swells and ever developing, dubby chord arrangements, whilst ‘Tonic’ continues this aesthetic as transcendental melodies meet deep kicks and delicate hats to reveal a captivating journey across six and a half minutes.

On the flip, ‘The Days Are Longer Now’ utilises a skillful balance of emotive synths and refined kicks to deliver the most up front production of the package, before title cut ‘Lets Be Free’ closes proceedings as resonant melodies and paired back organic percussion patterns ebb and flow amongst pockets of intricate sound design to conclude yet another impressive release on the Berlin based imprint.

niggas talkin shit freestyle ft neil da rookie

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….
