Mechanism is a Rotterdam based organisation with a focus on presenting and releasing adventurous techno driven music. The aim of Mechanism is to push the limits of the sonic palette and to contribute to the intersection of dance floor rituals and abstract sensory experiences.

The second release of the Mechanism label is by Rotor Militia. The music of Rotor Militia is a combination of technoid beats and hypnotic abstract layers of ritualistic and synthetic sounds. With this four tracker Rotor Militia works the soil for the new label to build upon.

NDYUKA PODCAST #12

NDYUKA RHYTHM

With the year 2021 coming to an end, here is my last NDYUKA podcast of the year. This mix is recorded with a rhythmic state of mind. Fast paced as usual but more emphasized to the deeper and sexy grooves. A nice mid day groovy techno set where the simplicity of the rhythmic swing and track selection is the key point of the whole mix.

Sundays are for... LVT

https://hypeddit.com/darkalbum/remixesvol6 


Volume 6 of The Dark Album remixes gets right back to techno.

First up is a remix of Hard Patience from Humanoid Gods, an artist who heralds from Turin, Italy. Himself a man who carries a dark and mystical energy from a city famed for it’s dark and mystical energy, all this intensity pervades through his music. Even his artist name seems to hold more questions than answers. Meanwhile, fellow Turin residents Boston 168 recently offered up a remix themselves for Humanoid Gods, a sure stamp of fellow artistic approval. There is no messing around here with the powerful signatures from Hard Patience ramped to 11 and laced with strong, gritty hard techno beats. A fantastic set opener.

Next up is The GOAT, aka Chris Marcinkiewicz, born in a remote Canadian town called Prince Rupert, which was named in a creative meditation by Sarah de Leeuw as a “Highway of Monsters”, The GOAT is now based in Vancouver, but it appears the monsters came with him. Another artist drawn by the leftfield who naturally explores the boundaries of the unsafe often with a blistering hard techno edge. Probably by no coincidence, a common thread in the artists Harper has curated for volume 6 is an early interest in alternative heavy metal. These influences, can certainly be felt in The GOAT’s signature sound and it was these brutal, hard, distorted beats that really drew Harper to invite The GOAT to remix New Super. Powerful from the off, this is an absolute belter of a remix, it feels incredible from start to finish, but there is a very subtle energy at work that climaxes at the drop around 3mins 32secs. Check it.

But wait! It. Does. Not. Stop. Ha ha! The master that is Raul Alvarez remixes Humanistic Correction. The Madrid based maestro is possibly one of electronic music’s most prolific producers. Working as an audio and mastering engineer by day, Raul Alvarez finds himself very close to the music he loves. A true artist, familiar with the suffering that life can bring, after spending time in a mental hospital in Berlin and breaking both his legs while trying to escape. But even before this traumatic incident, his music spoke of some incredible divine energy that as he himself would say, cannot easily be put into words. The Raul Alvarez remix of Humanistic Correction does not disappoint, this is straight to the point, hypnotic dancefloor techno, deep, rich, powerful and masterfully respectful of the original.

There is a lot that could be said about the producer behind the final remix on volume 6, Greencross. One could mention his prolific time as label founder of Different is Different, or some of the other incredible remixes he has accomplished, or his move into the magnetic world of NFTs. But the reality is, Greencross is simply a dude who really understands techno music and who cites his main inspiration as “his many failed attempts to fit in”. His fine tuned ear was quickly drawn to the possibilities in Zeitgeber and he has reconstructed the original’s 1920s swing vibe into a classic 2020s snappy techno forerunner.

“For volume 6 I set the intention of reaching out to artists whom I knew were expressing the most extreme depths of deeply held emotion in their sound. I’ve become familiar with all the artists on volume 6 from playing their tracks on my monthly radio show so I knew exactly what energy I was calling upon here. I trust you’ll agree that this is raw, dark, hard techno at it’s most artistic and expressive that is simply incredible on every level. I have had the joy of playing these tracks out a few times now and the crowd reaction is consistently explosive”

Embodiment 065 - LVT

The Eightfold Path is a 30-minute progression of experimental melodic techno created by RION CINCUIS. Composed with the Elektron Syntakt, 'The Eightfold Path' presents 8 propulsive scenes that unfold to reveal their 8 elemental components.   
This 8x8 structured project puts a modern techno motor into the optimistic spirit of early Detroit techno.

Patch Notes:

Harmonic patch using the new MakeNoise tELHARMONIC is a Multi-Voice, Multi-Algorithm synthesizer, and 4ms Spectral Multiband Resonator. The master clock is the Tiptop Circadian Rhythms. Clock output running into the Modcan Touch Sequencer. Channel output one running into one intellijel Dixie (V1) for the bassline. Dixie output running into a Mutable instruments Ripples filter (LP4), triangle waveform. Second channel output sequencing quantized 8 note sequence to the telharmonic oscillator, creating the first lead sequence in the patch (major scale set). One Mult output taken and sent to the Strymon BigSky reverb pedal to create the delicate swarm pads that rise in and out at the builds. Amplitude control of the slow rises via the intellijel HexVCA, slow rate control from one Modcan Quad LFO. The other output is then taken and sent to the Qu-bit RT-60 reverb. Third output from the Modcan TS sending quantized CV to the MakeNoise STO oscillator variable SHAPE output then sent through lower section of the MakeNoise Optomix. The forth output from the Modcan TS is sending a 4 chord pattern (min9) to the intellijel shapeshifter module in chord mode. This output is then sent to another Qu-Bit RT-60 reverb algorithm. MakeNoise Mysteron plucking guitar like effect being triggered by a 4ms RCD, 5th trigger out. The Mysterson then is running out into a Strymon BlueSky pedal, reverb.

Drum sequencing from TipTop CR, channel one kick drum going to the Nord Drum 2. Second channel number 2 triggering a custom snare drum made on the Nord Drum 2. Channel 6 from the CR triggering a low bass drum, in the key of "C". Clock output from CR into the 4ms SCM being rotated by a intellijel dixie sine wave output running at a slow rate shifting the 16th's hi hat pattern. Noise source for hi-hats are the SSF quantum rainbow 2, purple output running into the MakeNoise Optomix. The high end snare clap sound is by the Synthrotek's DS-M drum module, then being lightly processed by the Synthrotek DLY, slowly CV controlled by a Modcan Quad LFO in random mode creating more glitchy effects. This is then being sequenced by channel number 2 from the tiptop CR. The first lower left side 4ms Spectral Multi-band Resonator processing 72 custom DSP samples, which are being played by one addac wave player. The output is then being sent to a intellijel uVCF filter (hi pass), for the light subtle glitch textures. The second 4ms Spectral Multi-band Resonator, processing another set of 32 samples (noise washes/slow rises/falls) via channel number 4 from the CR tiptop. From here the output is being processed by a Mutable Instruments Clouds (granular mode), being controlled by the Pittsburgh Modular Game System running "Meteor Shower" mode in which the explosion based gates and random control voltages are then being sent to 3rd Dixie, controlling the CV rate time then from there its sent to the "Freeze" input on clouds, processing small bits of audio coming from the second addac waveplayer, The second output coming from the gamesystem is going into the "position" input on Clouds, which is doing some additional glitching to the signal.Main output from a intellijel Mutagen mixer then ran through the Eventide space pedal for extra spatial atmosphere. :-)

Four hundred million years in the making, Coniferous Forests are simpler, quieter, and more spacious habitats than other forests, and yet they still resound with more than enough sonic diversity to mesmerize your audience.
