Figure 46 featured Roman Poncet, making his debut on the label with a powerful collection of modern techno. Now its the turn on L.A based techno-powerhouse Truncate to remix each track, offering 4 inflammable tools for the floor.

Truncate is the alter ego of Californian producer Audio Injection a.k.a David Flores. Over the last few years his self release ‘Truncate’ label quickly became a quintessential modern techno standpoint. Now for fans of his pummeling, jacking and urgent sound, he turns his hands to Poncet’s recent EP, also likened by critics to the US producer’s trademark style.

What we find are 4 homogenous and very agile cuts. Each perfectly measured and controlled, their respective elements honour the originals, yet reduce them to their basic fundamentals. Providing some real treats for both techno, and house DJs alike, Truncate proves why he is one of the most in-demand producers around.

<p>The legendary Mark Reeve delivers his very first techno EP on MB Elektronics. Starting this EP is the &#8216;Metamorph&#8217;. Definitely would be one of the highlight releases of this year. It features an exquisite and devastating bassline. Next is &#8216;Planet Blue&#8217; which features a very nice solid drum pattern. A subtle bassline while smooth strings gather as the production progresses. Brilliant stuff here and a EP that must definitely get a look in on MB Elektronics.</p>

Here we go with our very first exclusive premiere and we've got a corker to get things rolling. Venezuelan duo Fur Coat have kindly given us the first play of the title track from their forthcoming EP 'There's No Time', which is coming out on Jamie Jones' ever popular Hot Creations label.

This new track is a perfect example of their love affair with the sleazier side of house music, razor sharp synth lines cascade over a hefty set of percussion and a rumbling, morose b-line while a pitched-down, barely audible vocal lurks in the background. Hot stuff we're sure you'll agree. You can get your copy of the cut from the 31st of March.

« When I Look » featuring Shaun J. Wright (Hercules & Love Affair) is classic vocal house with a twist of tension and despair. This is Chicago-styled – from Joe Smooth to Derrick Carter –, summer-ready dance music with high production values, yet it also slightly sounds like something’s going wrong in there. Just the perfect balance between an uplifting celebration and a restless, dark pounding.
 
Opening with a sample from a Twin Peaks episode, « It Is Happening Again » is a freaky, early acid number, designed for a rave settled in a mental institution. Deep burnt just like Bobmo’s soul, it’s reminiscent of nineties acid techno, both US and Euro, but exhales something eerily sensual too.

Out on March 31.

Bobmo - When I Look Feat. Shaun J. Wright

Timmo’s debut Drumcode release ‘We Beat On’ carries a flow through out that gives Timmo his own unique sound that has captured the ears of many highly revered techno DJ’s around the world. Timmo uses hypnotic sounds and phrases whilst he always maintains a thumping techno beat that underlies all the tracks within this EP to maximum effect. Furthermore, there is a ghostly feel amongst Timmo’s tracks that really provide him with his acquired sound, the pads in ‘Canvas’ are a beautiful reminder of this. Timmo also uses strong synth stabs to full effect that juxtapose against the drums to help create the tension and aggression that is present within techno.

Alan Fitzpatrick - 1992 (Original Mix)

Foremost international techno outlet Drumcode is delighted to announce the release of its next full-length album, ‘Satellite’, by enduring Italian techno talent Sam Paganini.

Though he has been active since the mid nineties, recent years have been hugely successful for Sam, with searing techno EPs coming on revered labels such as Riche Hawtin’s Plus8, Sven Vath’s Cocoon and of course, Adam Beyer’s Drumcode. In his time he has been responsible for underground hits like ‘Zoe’, ‘Polyester’ and ‘Fire In My Arms’, all of which demonstrate his dynamic understanding of sexy, dark and hypnotic techno grooves and at the same time have earned him plenty of great Beatport chart positions as well as respect from the best in the game.

Incredibly, ‘Satellite’ is Sam’s first full-length album. Informed by his DJ gigs at legendary places like Berghain in Berlin and Cielo in New York, the album starts with a dystopian bit of sonic scene setting, as if a space ship is charging up ready to take off.

From there it’s a case of getting straight down to business. ‘Another Chance’ is a spacey bit of cantering techno and ‘White’ is rooted in devastating kick drums and is riddled with serrated synth lines that build lots of great techno pressure. ‘Down’ is an undulating bit of funky techno complete with choice vocal flourishes and tracks like ‘Lotus’ are prime offerings from the deeper end of the scale.

No two tracks sound the same on Satellite: Sam is always teasing out a new bit of texture, nailing a slightly different vibe or exploring different amounts of light and dark throughout the course of this most excellent album. This is evidenced by diverse cuts like ‘Dusty’, ‘Toxic’ and ‘Rave’.

Despite ‘Satellite’ being Sam’s debut album, it showcases his seductive style in all its glory across 12 fantastic tracks that will leave you begging for more.

Alan Fitzpatrick is back with a three-track EP that encapsulates what Alan’s Drumcode sound is all about. Hard-hitting drums that fire down onto the dance floor like cannon balls. Check! Intense key patterns that are as twisted as they are uplifting. Check! Beautiful melodies that seamlessly interlock with each element. Check! Big-sounding, infectious grooves and killer hooks generously sprinkled with the infamous Fitzpatrick magic over the top. CHECK! In short, this EP is everything we have come to expect from Alan over his long history with Drumcode (this is his 10th EP as a solo artist!), but still his sound remains fresh and super-charged for 2014.

‘Polar Era‘ comes out! This is the second reference of Lycaon TM, label owned by Agony Forces, the group that already surprised with their first: ‘The Noir Age‘. This delivery is composed by two original tracks and remixes by the duo Ancient Methods from Berlin, and by the leader of techno in Spain, Oscar Mulero.

The reference opens with the original version of Polar era, a pulsing and hypnotic techno track. White noise and reverb-soaked atmospheres get the intensity grow higher and higher until the climax, in which a pad makes an appearance and then returns to the initial energy. 909 rhythms and percussions make this a perfect piece for DJ‘s working the track.

Vertebra is the second cut, where the AF shows the distinguishing features of his characteristic sound, a track in which the sensitivity of idm and techno with a capital combine to result in a timeless cut. Deep drums, futuristic stabs and sound of classic rhythm are the ingredients of the end of side A.

The two producers Ancient Methods take charge of the first of the remixes, and bring in their distinctive sound to the reference giving a twist to the original track, getting the more industrial side playing with the intensity of the rhythms and hypnotic melodies. No doubt the producers „Made in Berlin“ stamped their breath on the track.

The reference closes with Oscar Mulero’s remix, who brings out his most thoughtful and timeless character to build a track in which the influence of electronic with roots in the past decade is more than obvious. Not to mention his trademark and his background in the world of techno, the track is a perfect brooch to close this second reference.
