Reducing Form presents the first release. Two artists who are contributing a lot to the minimal-techno scene, always searching for something new and keep developing their sound, Tiziano Sterpa and Bryan Brack. The first EP seems to be designed for the label style. The original mix from Tiziano is a minimal-techno track with some tech-house shades, running with sharp hats, fat bass-line and atmospheric synth to compose the break-down, all being arranged very well. The sonority is dark in general and sounds very futuristic. Following, the second track is a remix from Brian who made of it something very different. The arrangement is made with less elements, going straight to the point and getting close to a fatter and more minimal sound!! The particular synth-line that he used in the second part will give to this track a more acid and experimental touch. We really hope that you will enjoy our concept and our first project.

RF is glad to present the release 003, a second single EP by the italian artist Alberto Tolo. Alberto is a new young producer who have already built a solid background with his several releases, getting early support by artists like Richie Hawtin, Dubfire, Paco Osuna and many more. The single coming out on RF is a techno track named "Over". 707 drums, funky bass line and vocals are the main elements, running together with a very simple arrangement that gives a minimal and a personal touch to the project. The composition is in a way very experimental, based on analogue machines and short breaks down, with a final result that perfectly matches with the label style. We hope you will enjoy Alberto's work so much us.

The label head Tiziano Sterpa is back with a very interesting project named "Simplifying". The italian producer put together on a track is best tools creating a groove, that explain at the best the label concept, minimal and with some futuristic shades of techno. The EP is made by other three version of his work remixed by "Rodrigo Estevez", "John Haden" and "Raul De Almeida". Rodrigo's version is a very dark techno tool running with a very well compressed kik and very sharp hats, all very well arranged on the synth lines that Tiziano previously create for the release. Same synths line that you can hear in the john remix but this time the track is made with very compressed rhythmical elements that will make of it something definitely cool for the dance hall. The swiss artist seems inspired by the most modern techno school inspiring as well, with this project, many upcoming artists in the actual scene. The 3rd remix is in stead a minimal and more experimental work, still good for the dance hall, will bring yourself in a dream, with his particular back ground sounds, also good arranged with the effected percussions and the rhythmical parts. We really hope you will like this project as much as we do.

"Reducing Form" is very glad to introduce a new school and very talented artist coming from Romania, "Mircea Ivan", upcoming on our baby label with a two tracks EP named "Gok". A very innovative sound inspired by the most modern techno but still based on a minimal structure that give a very personal touch to the whole concept. The first track is "Gok". Tough bass kik, very sharp hats and congas running constantly all over the track. The brake is made by leads and very electronic FX perfectly designed to give a futuristic touch to the track. The second track is named "sketched". Is still very techno and made by tough but less elements than the previous one. Instead Ivan worked on very deep leads that make it feels more groovy. We really love the sound of this new producer that shows and still keep doing, his quality and his new way to concept techno music. Enjoy Mircea Ivan - Gok, RF005.

For the Amsterdam Dance Event 2015 Reducing Form is glad to present the release N7. An EP including a very nice techno groove by The born UK producer Minitech Project named 'Reducing'. The release will come out with 3 different remixes made by the label head Tiziano Sterpa, the indian producer Ash Roy and a last by Alex Costa, who doesn't need intro as very well known for his several releases on the major labels like: Bitten, Intacto, Toolroom and many more! The original is a techno track with minimal shades. The particular background sounds and the effected hats and vocals give to this project a real futuristic touch. The remix by Alex Costa is a more techno version made by old school elements and fast brakes down! The bass line is fatter and the synth lines very characteristic. The remix by Tiziano Sterpa is definitely darker with a break made with synth that remains the most introspective Detroit sound. The beat is still tech house having particular backgrounds atmosphere. The 3rd remix by Ash Roy is a more electronic and melodic version of the original. Bass line is with high envelope giving to the track a acid touch. We hope you can enjoy this release during the conference. RF 007 - Reducing (ADE SPECIAL).

The last release of the year for our baby label!! A very nice techno tool by James Hopkins who we are very glad to introduce for the first time coming with a great remix from Alberto Tolo who already edit on Reducing Form more then once! The original mix is a very dark and minimal techno track named 'Nothing changes'. Very simple track running with a real fat bassline, low background sounds and very sharp hats, all very well arranged with percussive sounds, atmospheres and effected vocals. The Alberto's remix is a more melodic and techno version of it, characterised by a very cool lead, which remains the old moog sound. The kik is very well compressed and the hats sharp as well on the off beat. The vocal are differently effected and pitch much lower then the original version coming up mostly during the break. In this EP we have chance to introduce a new school and upcoming artist in techno scene as James and to present the new style of the well known italian producer. We hope you're gonna like it as much as we do!! RF011 Enjoy!

The structure of any track is very simple made by very clean kik, very sharp hats, effected percussions with some very cool delay running on it, fat and harmonic bass line and to complete the picture FX leads and pads very nicely build to bring all of that in very dark mood. We hope you like as much as his new way to experiment and his trying to bring minimal techno to the next level.

The percussions and the hats are very simple but very sharp and well effected. The second track named 'Foreign Bodies' is a bit more minimal and more introspective with particular FX and atmospheric sounds.

Reducing Form is glad to introduce a new 4 tracks EP and to welcome back two producers who gave already a solid contribution to the growing of the label, Natalino Nunes and Raul De Almeida. The two of them are coming up with two tracks each in a unique EP 'Yourself EP'. Natalino Nunes return after 6 month with 2 originals 'Animal' and 'Kosy' and with a new groove definitely more house then usual. Keeping his usual elements, so a tough bass-kik, sharp hats and a very fat bass line, Natalino this time, build around it a very nice and dynamic session of percussions giving a little tech-house touch to the concept. Raul instead presents two minimal-techno tracks, still with some housy shades but more atmospheric and dark, based on very low sounds, pads and vocals, keeping the project very experimental as well. We really hope you will enjoy this solid release as much as we do. Thanks

After quiet long time Tiziano Sterpa is back with the release N015 on Reducing Form. A Minimal-Techno track named 'Speechlessness' coming with two remixes from two artists who already edit with amazing works on our label 'Mircea Ivan' and 'John Haden'. The original mix is a very dark concept based on a solid bass-kik and a particular bassline, with very high resonance to compose the melodic part. As usual the arrangement of the track is very dynamic, characterised by nice and effected percussion and very clean but sharp hi-hats. The first remix by 'Mircea Ivan' is a techno version of it. The rhythmical part is simplified in this case and all seems a little harder. Instead of the bassline used in the original version the young producer designed a solid lead running all over the track. The second remix 'John Haden is the most minimal version and is definitely the darkest too. The bassline is very fat in this version and and rhythmical very simple as well. The track seems slower and very atmospheric with a very nice and dark lead to make the melodic part and giving to the project a John Haden touch. Enjoy
