HYPE MACHINE

Rekids welcomes Madrid-based producer Regal to the label for the first time, with the long-awaited release of the Figure/Enemy Records affiliate’s interpretations of Ghetto Kraviz. 

With the original named by FACT Magazine as one of the top 100 tracks of the decade so far, Regal’s 303 and Dub remixes have meanwhile been a recurring feature in Radio Slave's sets since last year, leading to their eventual release on his recently relaunched imprint. The A-side sees the Involve Records boss turn in an jacking, acidic take, while on the flip, the Dub version heads in a more classic techno direction, replete with pounding kicks and cathedral-filling reverb.

Ghetto Kraviz (Regal 303 Remix)

Ken Karter is a new addition to the Stroboscopic Artefacts label, and one who is wasting no time in proving that he belongs on that label's talented roster. With a personal ethos based on the reconciliation of esoteric and scientific aims, it is clear that his music hopes to avoid the blind alley of "either / or" binary thinking and instead strives for a fascinating journey into "both / and" experimental fusion. The label's Monad series, already populated with producers who set their sights on similar artistic goals, provides a very fertile soil indeed for Karter's integrationist worldview and intense sounds.
Ken Karter's breakout release for Stroboscopic Artefacts is Monad XXI, and this in itself is a kind of happy coincidence: this is very much the sound of the 21st century, full of anticipatory tension and darkness, but also a great deal of rushing excitement related to new discoveries. Altogether, these pieces have an effect not unlike navigating through Tokyo on a rainy night: a profound feeling of natural and chaotic processes finding a way to reassert themselves within even the most well-choregraphed technological drama. Each track achieves this special sensation in its own way, with the leadoff MX-01.11 preferring ritually slow kick patterns and an ephemeral scaffolding of dust particles and other 'micro' sonic events. MX-02.11 follows this initiation with the type of headspace-dominating percussive pulses favored by the "clicks and cuts" school, which are here marinated in a mesmerizing tropical heat rather than situated in the austere coldness so often associated with that sound. The third cut on the EP, MX-03.11 quivers with vitality and restlessness, anchoring itself in the listener's consciousness with the help of something like a massive, sliced-and-diced didgeridoo drone, and with a steady rain of percussive artillery fire. It's an exceptional blend of militancy and ecstasy that segues into the likeminded finale, MX-04.11, an infusion of long tones and synthetic splashes once again girded with serious low-end beats.
With just these four tracks at his disposal, Karter shows the potential for electronic music to move beyond what is expected of it, infiltrating new listening environments and inviting new attitudes. As a culmination of the most impactive EDM features from the foregoing decades, and as a harbinger of what still lies ahead, this is a Monad to play loud - and, as ever, not to be missed.

Solid Steel in association with Serato (4th December) Benjamin Damage released his third album 'Obsidian' on 50 Weapons and as the first artist (outside of Modeselektor) to release on the label it’s apt that his album is also the last and 3 tracks feature in his mix, alongside label mates Cosmin Trg, previous guest Martyn, Secluded, Jerome Hill, Daniel Avery and SCNTST. He had this to say;
"My Solid Steel mix was recorded as a farewell to 50Weapons. I picked out some new and not so new music that fits in with the spirit of what the label meant to me."

You can catch Modeselektor and Benjamin Damage alongside Shed, FJAAK, Addison Groove and Phon.o for the 50 Weapons Finale at Oval Space, London on 12th December.

Groove Podcast 17 - Benjamin Damage

Benjamin Damage - Heliosphere Radio Mix

release date (vinyl & digital): 3rd of June.

Next stop: Berlin.

Rødhåd is one of the city’s most promising and talked about new artists of the last year. With only 2 EP’s on Dystopian (the label he helms with friends) & 1 remix on Semantica, that’s quite an achievement.

‘Spomeniks EP’ is his first release outside of Dystopian but preserves his deep & melancholic yet powerful style.

Apart from a rising producer & prolific dj, Rødhåd is a very down to earth guy with a strong vision and an open mind.

Definitely a match with anything Token stands for.
