Holden’s first SK_X release has been one worth waiting for. The New Yorker blends a mix of hard brutal percussive drive and powerful kick drums with his beautifully written melodies which stem from his background in classical music. Throughout the EP Holden’s musical background is ever dominant–vibrant synth lines provide a sense of body and feeling in the music, while straight techno rhythms keep the dance floor happy and the feet moving. 

As well as producing and DJing, Holden’s passion lies firmly in digging records. Through finding hidden 90s gems, his Instagram page has become very popular amongst a lot of heads in the scene.

Fuse strikes again with a third release of ageless techno, brimming with grit and soul by Sweden’s own Dold. ‘Rider’ embodies 4 different examples of classically mastered techno that samples each facet of one of club music’s most enduring genres. Fuzzy mechanics, loopy chord sequences and thumping rhythms make this a particularly infectious record for dance floor newcomers and long time fanatics alike.

The A1 on a four track EP is usually meant to make an impression, an enticing introduction to lure in the listener to discover the rest of a project, and Dold does exactly that with ‘Smile’. A twisted name for an intimidating opener, the producer operates a minimal composition to make way for an invasive acid line, resulting in a peak time treat of immediate effect. ‘Smile’ exercises power with a shrill background ambiance to make its intentions clear, however the follow up balances the tone to bring things back to the groove. ‘Old News’ engages in a more playful style of production, blurring the line between percussion and synth work. Repetitive chords trigger almost like compressed toms, booming past an excited drum sequence with a punchy kick and flickering hi hats. Clap rolls before ducking back into the kick give this record a truly vintage quality to it, all the while staying pertinent for the modern dancefloor. The title track ‘Rider’ settles in perfectly as a response to its predecessor. Dold isn’t afraid to add a bit of shimmer to what could have been expected to be a colder addition to his EP, and this gives a considerable amount of character that has become synonymous with his sound. The bright keys and supporting synths are given a lot of space, creating a highly sought-after dancefloor euphoria. Melodically rich and percussively mastered, the Swede explores ‘Rider’ with openness and curiosity, making it the perfect track to name the project after. With the end drawing closer, Dold unveils the last part of his contribution to Fuse. Softening up his synth sequence to be a bit more airy than the three before, he’s able to create a whole new atmosphere by swaying through ‘Rich String’ that soothes the listener for the conclusion of his EP, a true reflection of Fuse’s brand of techno.

Fast rising techno star, ANNĒ, returns to Soma with another astounding release - the Moon Lander EP. Marking her 3rd full release with the label, ANNĒ once again delves into deep,
grooving techno with her now signature sound design. Title track Moon Lander opens with a serious intent. Playful stabs glides across carefully constructed percussive elements that keep the pace fast and sharp. Fieldstone hits with a more hypnotic, space like vibe but still retains ANNĒ’s unique drive. More clinical sound design is at the forefront of St. Strings with expertly controlled drums driving the rhythm as slowly evolving atmospheres and stabs deliver the attitude. The more jacking Rootstock is up next, pushing hard on the 909 workouts against dubbed out synths and trippy, intense synths elements. *bandcamp exclusive Magnets closes out the release with a more dirty, and abrasive sound.

FLOORPAN "THE MASTER'S PLAN" (CLASSIC MUSIC):
https://cmc.lnk.to/cmcd141d

Before I got into this music I wanted to be an originator ; I wanted to be original".
Founding member of the legendary group Underground Resistance as a 'Minister Of Information' with ‘Mad’ Mike Banks & Jeff Mills, his seminal works on Jeff Mill's Axis and his very own M-Plant imprint paved the way for a wave of stripped-down dancefloor minimalism that directed much of techno's path throughout the late Nineties.
Robert Hood makes minimal Detroit techno with an emphasis on soul and experimentation over flash and popularity. 

"Growing up in Detroit, I grew up with Motown in the house - a lot of Motown and Philadelphia soul, artists like Marvin Gaye of course and Curtis Mayfield. I remember Isaac Hayes, the soundtrack from ‘Shaft’ had come out. My father was a jazz musician; he played piano, trumpet and drums. My mother was in an R’n’B group.
We listened to a lot of Motown - in fact, my grandfather’s first cousin is Berry Gordy.
"I was influenced by my father - I wanted to play trumpet like he did."
Robert's father tragically died when he was just 6. The photo of Robert siting down holding a trumpet is his fathers.
"I had to beg my grandmother to let me borrow the trumpet to take a picture with it"

In the early 90's he began to concentrate on his own production 'Vision EP', the 'Riot EP' and X-102 were big stepping-stones for him as they were the first releases he worked 100% on his own. The X-101 to X-102, were Waveform Transmission projects with Mills for Tresor. He slowly progressed to work more and more on his own, but collaberated on some of the first Axis releases with label owner Jeff Mills as H&M (Hood & Mills) with ‘Tranquilizer EP’ and ‘Drama’.

He soon decided it was time for him to start his own label to focus on what was in his soul musically. M-Plant started in ’94. I had developed this “grey area” sound - what I mean by that is that in Detroit, even when the sun is out, there’s something in the atmosphere. I don’t know if its pollution or whatever, but the sky has that grey haze over it. It’s got to be something from the industrial factories there. I’d never really heard a sound like that before and it came from a Roland Juno - it was a chord sound that really went along with my depiction of what Detroit was at that time. A lot of buildings were abandoned and there was a lot of lifelessness in the city, especially downtown. The M-Plant, in minimalism, kind of reflected that. I remember thinking of Detroit like a museum. You know, like a work of art standing still, suspended in time. There wasn’t a whole lot of activity going on.

Releasing singles such as "Internal Empire,", “The Protein Valve” "Music Data," and "Moveable Parts", "The Pace", more recently "Range", "Alpha" and that isn't even touching his other monikers Floorplan, Monobox, The Vision, etc.
"M-Plant is what I've always wanted to hear: the basic stripped down, raw sound. Just drums, basslines and funky grooves and only what's essential. Only what is essential to make people move. I started to look at it as a science, the art of making people move their butts, speaking to their heart, mind and soul. “It's a heart-felt rhythmic techno sound. M-Plant is just M. minimal. “

Although his desire to remain underground has been replaced by an urge to reach a wider audience, mainly via his housier, disco, gospel moniker Floorplan with his daughter Lyric Hood,   Hood remains fiercely critical of artistic and economic movements destructive to inner-city communities and has combined his musical enterprises with outreach and social activist ends.
