[SOMA412D]

1.	Slam – Pattern A3
2.	Slam - Pattern A3 (Jonas Kopp Remix)
3.	Slam - Pattern A3 (Bleak’s Modular Interpretation)
4.	Slam - Pattern A3 (Charles Fenckler Remix) 

The first single to be taken from Slam’s truly astounding upcoming album ‘Reverse Proceed’ sees the hypnotic Pattern A3 alongside some of Techno’s biggest and brightest new stars adding their own versions also.

Slam have chosen one of the major standout tracks from Reverse Proceed to set the tone prior to the album’s full release in late October. With the album built around the concept of varying sequences, it’s fitting that the first single be given such an apt name. Taken directly form the Cirklon sequencer pattern that helped design the track Pattern A3 features heavily modulating synths that seems to have a fully organic life of their own set against the typical backdrop of 909 drums. 

Following on from Slam’s original, Soma have enlisted the help of 3 of the label’s favourite contemporary Techno artists. Argentina’s Jonas Kopp is first up on remix duties and deliver an absolute pile-driver of a remix with his signature thudding drums and machine-gun like percussion firing rapidly against subtle and stripped synth elements.
 
Swedish based Bleak is a very welcome addition to this package as he offers his own ‘Modular Interpretation’. Heavy sub bass and intelligent drum work outs combine with yet more subtle hints of the original’s synth elements to give a more deep and introspective version. 

Rounding off the EP is latest Soma artist Charles Fenckler. The young French artist is making waves in Techno at the moment and has certainly delivered on this project, giving his version a much more minimalistic, stripped and ends up with a solid dance floor burner.

Returning victorious to M-Plant after the Floorplan album and EP takeover, Robert Hood, whose work under his own name has continued to garner equal support with the ‘Paradygm Shift’ series for Dekmantel, brings the heat with this triple-tracker in May.

The original minimal techno master wastes no time with opener ‘Clocks’. There’s a sense of urgency as the track builds, looping into its crescendo with waves of staccato hi-hats. Tick tock, tick tock.

Over on the flipside there’s a familiarity in the opening chords of ‘Low Life’ that will resonate with fans of Hood’s work. Instantly recognisable, it’s stamped with his ability to bring funk and groove to the colder stomp of techno.

Final opus, ‘Go’ brings a spiralling samba tempo to the dancefloor. The punchy drumbeat is interwoven with sweeping cymbals for a highly effective infectiousness, like a call to arms, or better still, the Brazilian call to carnival.

TAB002 | Klaps - Kwijt EP (Incl. Hush & Sleep Remix)

Beatport exclusive release: 01/10/2018
All stores release: 

Tabulat introduces its second release by Belgian techno-prodigy Klaps, including a stellar remix by Hush & Sleep [Second State, Etruria Beat, Suara].

After being extensively supported by Pan-Pot on his debut track "Captivating", Klaps lands his first full release on our imprint. His "Kwijt EP" is a spotless representation of the bass-heavy and acid-flecked sound he stands for. 

The title track "Kwijt" immediately sets the tone for the sound that Klaps has to offer. This dark gem gets characterized by its penetrating sub-bass and metallic percussion on top. Short and steep mini-breaks keep the momentum on pace while the main break smashes into a dazzling crescendo. 

"Quak" is the second offering of the release. Klaps' signature sound of filthy acid comes through within this track and generates a fiercely hypnotizing vibe. Rumbling bass and greasy 303 are the main weapons of choice within this peak-time gem.

With recent outlets on Second State, Etruria Beat, Suara and Virgo, the rising Dutch duo Hush & Sleep is reaching the major ranks of the realm of contemporary techno. With an acid-heavy "Rave Remix" of the title track "Kwijt", these prospects contributed an essential addition to an already stellar EP.
