Best known for his ambient excursions as Voices From The Lake alongside Donato Dozzy, Neel joins Token with the 4-track Calcata for Token 76. From his collaborations with Dozzy to his solo work for their joint-run label Spazio Disponibile, Neel's studio experience as a mastering engineer has gained him recognition as a producer who pays great attention the technical aspects of his sound. 

The title track falls within our expectations of exquisite ambience, with fluid, rhythmic mids and a delicate interplay of organic and unnatural noise in the high end. The opening shuffling hats in Re. Vox cement the release firmly in Token territory, while the staggered exaggeration of a synth line falters between beats and more crafted waves of noise increase the stress. Bassiani evokes its Georgian namesake in hypnotic bliss, while Treja's murky bass follows a dizzying theme overhead.

Celebrating its ten year anniversary, Dekmantel is pleased to announce record number eight in a ten-EP trophy series released throughout 2017. This time Dekmantel focusses on some of the most highly regarded craftsmen within techno, including, Donato Dozzy and Peter Van Hoesen along, Matrixxmann, and Dutch DJs Deniro and Talismann. Like stepping out of the UFO tent at Dekmantel Festival, ears ringing from an entire day of pulsating music, this record epitomizes the fiery warm, organic. Featuring a selection of underground, and international talents, the eighth EP will resonate with all who like their techno full of character, living in the space where Detroit and the Netherlands co-exist.

With a common language of abstract, modular techno Donato Dozzy and Peter van Hoesen are no strangers to each other's music – or studios. 'Storta' has that psychedelic tribal aesthetic that has come to define their most recent live-hybrid performances. Dutch producer Deniro has garnered a more cult-like reputation for his spacey, progressive jams – one that has earned him the admiration of Nina Kraviz who recently released his new EP Mendoza on her Trip label. Returning to Dekmantel, Deniro drives a soulful, journey to an intergalactic world that was shaped by the Gods of Detroit – smooth sauce, that Derrick May would surely approve of. Talismann, aka. Guy Blanken, aka. Makam, is the much travelled Dutch producer with a specialty for hypnotic drones, and apocalyptic rhythms. With a much beloved self-titled imprint distributed through Clone, Talismann makes his first foray onto the Dekmantel imprint with 'Aciano', a haunting series of raw acid, and prophetic beats. 'Sexual Frustration' by Matrixxman, is a continuation of the American producer's ever-growing relationship with Dekmantel. With three excellent EPs already released with the Dutch imprint – Nubian Metropolis, Sector I: Rhythm, and Sector II: Acid- the latest endeavour by Charles Duff highlights his analogue dexterity, when a soft-pallette of vibrant, almost electro-like sounds.

After throwing their first ever party in the Dutch capital a decade ago, Dekmantel have come to establish themselves in underground music. 2017 saw Dekmantel launch a new festival in Brazil, adding to their Dutch outing in, as well as their Croatian jaunt, Selectors. Going from strength to strength, the label kicked off their, ten-part EP series in March. With one EP released every month, the series has been embracing all the musical varieties Dekmantel has come to represent. Featuring label favourites, along with a whole bunch of new faces, iconic artists, and select debuts, the 10-year series is an, collection of timeless music that embraces everything they’ve done to date, while setting a precedent for things to come.

Critical Consequence (Original Mix)

Sombra, the Lisbon label founded by Shcuro and Peterr, is back with a fourth release to celebrate their fourth anniversary. This time, their sombre and atmospheric vision of techno finds expression through the work of 12 artists, from promising newcomers to established heroes, in a compilation called "4 ANOS", available in tape and digital formats.

Side A opens with label co-founder Peterr on a sparse, sonic slow techno work-out, followed by a breakbeat-tinged atmospheric cut by british talent Positive Centre and a detailed, deconstructed dancefloor-ready piece by Chimess. Young Lisbon producer Prec steps in with a tense, kick-furious roller while another local beatsmith, VIL, delivers an aqueous, percussive stunner and label regular Larix comes up with an ever-evolving broken techno riddim.

Lisbon's Enkö inaugurates side B by raising the intensity bar with a percussion-heavy hypnotic flex, followed by UK legend Paul Mac who hands in an insanely imaginative acid cut punctuated with a dense drone and cutting-edge drum patterns. Label repetent Damaskin is up next with a industrial-noise arpeggiated exercise that manages to take tension levels to extreme heights right before label co-founder Shcuro's peak-time dub-soaked techno seems to create a moment of euphoric dissociation. Buttons' resident Madalba brings all her Berlin knowledge to the table fusing rave intuition with drum innovation and blissful textures, with Cindy bringing a industrial and EBM inspired cut that taps into the soft spot between trippy and energetic to close this oneiric, techno-utopia of a compilation.

You know how a night out can be so full of vagaries - a cigarette burn on the dance floor, spilled drinks as you walk out of the bathroom, long queues... You walk into a room and feel this soothing pulse of understanding, a radiant sense of care for your well-being carries over through the speakers as pads croon their sympathy to you. As the mental cinema continues to unfold and acid tones combine with a swirling percussive groove, you know you are home. All the ways in which this night seemed to have gone wrong, are just right. For without them, this ethereal moment of transcendence would be impossible. Without them, there would be no Shikha.
