We're excited to to announce our next release on Silva Electronics, this time coming from SE founder Michael Claus. Realm is a collection of four tracks that utilize a variety of analog and digital production techniques and demonstrate Claus' ability to create a cohesive style from a variety of sound sources. The title track Realm and Atmos Schematics, originally written in 2018, are entirely "in the box" and showcase an atmospheric sound that includes an acidic 303 synth line. Baümer and Surge were originally recorded to tape in a single take via an old Tascam Portastudio in 2017 and were produced and mixed earlier this year. Surge's driving percussion and drums are equally matched by Baümer's sludgy and drone-adjacent sound design. This release is fit for deep listeners and DJs alike.

SE 11 // Michael Claus - "Realm" ep

A downtempo session filled with cosmic chug from Customer Service. 

Based in London, Customer Service is the co-founder of the brilliant record label Control Freak Recordings alongside Finnaman, launching in 2019 as a platform focused on leftfield techno and UK bass. Over the last two years, the pair have released records from the likes of Breaka, Guava, LUXE, Syz, Keplrr, Ayesha, Kincaid and more. Customer Service has also put out a couple of tracks on the label. 

Alongside the label, Customer Service and Finnaman run the London party series Cabin Fever, hosting raves at some of the city’s best underground venues. Bringing in artists from all around the world, they celebrated their third birthday this Summer with a knockout event featuring Anthony Naples, DJ Python and Alexis at Venue MOT. Coming up in the last few months of the year, Cabin Fever will be celebrating the latest Control Freak release from Will Hofbauer and Sangre Voss at The Waiting Room next Friday and in November they team up with Dutch imprint Nous’klaer Audio for a weighty event at The Cause with Bambounou, upsammy, Oceanic and more. To round off 2021, Cabin Fever heads to Corsica Studios with Martyn, Forest Drive West, Al Wootton and LUXE. 

Speaking about the idea behind the mix Will says, “Last time I saw Chanel I was in full party mode, so I wanted to put something a bit weirder together. I can’t really plan mixes but this one ended up being a sub 100 mix of crunchy and cosmic chug.”

Ever since it was first created, underground collective Positive Education, having since evolved into a yearly festival, has become the electronic emblem of the French city of Saint-Étienne. Its programming reflects the new alternative electro scene, cutting-edge and innovative, straying away from its dance music heritage.

Takeover Positive Education Festival avec E-Unity - 29 Octobre 2021

The Awkwardly Cast is back again and for this episode we're proud to be hosting the sounds of a Berlin DJ on the rise. @bensleia first caught our attention with some of her deadly mixes for the likes of @lobster-theremin, @foldldn and @daisychain_podcast. Recently relocating to Berlin from Liverpool (where she still often plays at the institutional "24 Kitchen Street" nightclub), you can now regularly find her holding it down on @hoerberlin and @refugeworldwide, hosting her monthly "BRUITS" show. With a schedule as busy as hers, we feel honoured that she found the time to cook up this stormer of a mix for us. Get locked and lose yourself in this ferocious whirlwind of half stepping rhythms!
