Techno

After the success of the first A-sides compilation in 2012, Adam Beyer has decided its time to release another. With Adam's stature steadily growing as one of the leading talents in the Techno scene and the rise of Drumcode, the standard of demo's that have been sent to Adam have been top notch. Adam has now decided to release two compilations with 10 tracks on each, both consisting of tracks that Adam has tried and tested. There are also new artists that have been invited to release on Drumcode for this compilation and others who are a staple in Drumcode's core family. Combining both old and new talents Drumcode have come up with something unique and distinctive to make this two-part compilation something extra special.

Pascal Nuzzo “Kaneda” - Nuzzo brings his underground influences to good use here, recalling styles like French Filter House and 90's techno and dark progressive, which have played an important role in his development as an artist. Nuzzo takes his cycle of beating metallic drums to a new experimental high here before the sound of a whirling car or spaceship rushes by, teasing at the rising tide of the chorus as it starts up with sizzling synthesizers to back it up. The hammering, cracking beat that follows plays well with the previous sounds as they turn to more blunted, deeper tones. Nuzzo won’t settle here either, though, when a chattering joins in that bridges through the chorus to a quickened pace. This surprise could be jarring if they didn’t dovetail so well into each other, and the pulse stays with us to the end. With tracks like this, Pascal proves himself as an artist to watch for, a new star that has only just started to spread his light.

DKMNTL031 // Robert Hood - Paradygm Shift Volume 1
a. Robert Hood - Form
b. Robert Hood - Lockers

http://shop.dekmantel.com/release/5143/paradygm-shift-volume-1

Dekmantel is thrilled to announce an exciting new project by the impeccable Robert Hood. Over the course of three EPs and one album, the Detroit legend presents Paradygm Shift. The first EP is scheduled for the 22th of February. Hood: ‘‘The idea behind Paradygm Shift is similar to a shift in our focus. We can become so complacent; we are so comfortable with our surroundings, I think this is the time for electronic music to find a new mindset.’’

Hood is thrilled about his new adventure on the Dekmantel label: ‘‘I’m glad to partner up with them on this project. I have a very good relationship with Dekmantel. I remember the first time I met them, how laidback these guys were. I performed in this illegal bunker, a dj-set, and the atmosphere was just amazing, awesome and open-minded. It seems like a natural progression to collaborate on this project now. We share a mutual responsibility not to let fall things just in place, but to make things happen. Dekmantel is about making things happen, and so like minds think alike.’’    

Inspiration for Paradygm Shift came from a shift in Hood’s own focus. ‘‘I have been busy with my Floorplan alias and reintroducing Monobox over the years, but at the same time I felt it necessary to reiterate Robert Hood as an electronic music artist who is bringing minimalism back in the forefront, and not to get lost in the melody. I want to get back to the simple repetitive programming that I’m known for, and to me it was returning to that, but shifting the listeners’ focus and not staying on this plane like we are used to.” 

This approach clearly manifests on Paradygm Shift Volume 1, the first EP that kicks of the series with great anticipation. Two tracks that have ‘Rob Hood’ written all over it: minimalistic beasts, bursting from energy and meticulously crafted by the hand of a master producer. ‘Form’ slowly but surely creeps upon you, a slow starter, but in the end the techno funk-finesse will roar like a Detroit car engine. ‘Lockers’ follows a slightly more melodic path, keeping the momentum by delivering body shaking, pulsating techno, deep and timeless just the way we like it.

We have the premiere of 'Lockers' and it's classic, rib-shaking Hood. 

From the first beat you're drawn in with pulsating riffs, thick, weighted kicks and fierce, groove-inducing snares. Before the melodic sound of Floorplan hits, let's go back to where it all began and who better to take us there than the king himself.

Premiere: Robert Hood 'Lockers'

Enrico Sangiuliano came up through illegal raves and is now a top DJ who plays all over the world and has his music played by the likes of Adam Beyer and Sven Vath. He has had the longest ever running techno number one on Beatport (his remix of ‘Can You Hear Me’ for DJ Boris on Alleanza) and is one of the best selling artists on the site at any one time. His music comes on Cocoon and Drumcode amongst others, and is powerful, direct stuff for the dance floor.

Written entirely in Italy, “X-Pollination (or cross-pollination) is fundamentally the key factor of growth, consciousness and life,” says the artist. “It’s the way I connect with people, share my passion, fly from one place to another and put many influences and elements into my music.”

The title track is eight minutes of slow burning but hypnotic techno funk with rolling rubber drums and nervy pads. Frazzled synths add post apocalyptic vibes to this main room anthem and many well crafted peaks and troughs along the way help make it even more standout. It is a real techno classic in the making.

Mark Reeve is the UK star who remixes. He has a long history with techno that goes back to the rave scene. Since then his education has taken in trips to techno mecca The Omen, has resulted in music on Cocoon and collabs with Pig & Dan. He has also released on Drumcode and has a big rolling sound that fills the world’s finest clubs and warehouses with his unique grooves. His take on the original is more energetic, with searing synths, cantering kicks and a dark energy that makes you pump your fist and stomp the floor. It is full of drama and is perfect balanced from start to finish.

It only took 20+ years of being top of the Swedish electronic music game for Pär Grindvik to launch his first ever full length release. Isle of Real features ten tracks which traverse a landscape of techno, experimental, electronica and ambient splendour. Written whilst on the road for several months on end, renowned producer and Stockholm LTD label head Grindvik took to hotel rooms and plane journeys for his nomadic production sessions – later polishing, recording and perfecting these demos in Peder Mannerfelt's Stockholm studio.

Throughout the album, Grindvik demonstrates his talent for finding the melodic soul in mechanical sounds. Isle of Real runs with a theme of spaces once inhabited, long since abandoned and reclaimed by the creep of nature. To us, "Headland" encompasses this most coherently and impressively. Built upon timeless techno blueprints, "Headland" aims to haunt with its eerie reverbed bells lingering far beyond its final notes.

A tale unravels in Isle of Real's plains and peaks. A long overdue LP debut from one of electronic music's key storytellers. Catch the pre-order of the double 12", out on May 24th via Grindvik's own Stockholm LTD label.

Pär Grindvik "Headland" - Boiler Room Debuts

After the release of their collaborative ‘BREED’ EP at the end of last summer, Nicole Moudaber and Skin have unveiled the highly anticipated remix package featuring a long list of respected producers. Carl Craig, Fur Coat, Jamie Jones, Jerome Sydenham, Paco Osuna, Pan-Pot and Scuba are just some of the names which have turned their hand to the project. Originally born out of Nicole and Skin ofSkunk Anansie’s desire to fuse their rock and techno backgrounds, this is a true for a collaboration project with a difference.

Nicole Moudaber & Skin - These Walls are Made of Water (Pan-Pot Remix)

The boys return to Phobiq in their inimitable style and the title track stomps its way through the door, with a definite nod to chords of old and tasty piano stabs to complete the picture.&nbsp; &#8220;Silhouette&#8221; picks up from there with more diva snippets and frantic claps while haunting arpeggios evolve into electronic beasts.&nbsp; But the real surprise comes in the form of &#8220;Choose Your Poison&#8221; which brings back Old Skool without being Old Skool at all.&nbsp; The affair is firing on all cylinders with menacing synths supporting epic progressions and anthemic vocals going hand-in-hand with a very cheeky riff.

Where the original provided melodic, hypnotic synths, Amelie challenges with dark, commanding techno tones, building off of the tune's drum soundscape and growing into a monstrous tune built to lift the dance floor. Out on Etruria Beat on May 1.

Sasha Carassi, hailing from Napoli, is a DJ, producer and composer whose style spans eclectically across the electronic landscape.
Sasha began his musical journey during the first years of the 90's, working as resident DJ at Dinamik, the most famous club in the area, when he was only 15. Influenced by House Music and Breakbeat, he has ventured into the production world, releasing his first album in 2002, after which followed a slew of well-received singles that cemented his reputation as producer. But 2010 was a massive year for Sasha production-wise, with releases on a host of big labels including the mighty Drumcode and Bedrock. This saw him make his presence known in the darker, big-room oriented side of the genre. Sasha loves the studio and his output is always visceral and atmospheric with trademark touches that makes his tunes instantly recognizable, perfectly proved in his “Picture” on Solomun’s Diynamic, where he shows his change of musical direction. Nowadays, in fact, he doesn't love defining himself with a proper genre because for him it is really limiting, but he loves feeling free to express his emotions, trying to mix and balance the different influences.
In 2009 he founded one of the most respected Techno labels “Phobiq”, releasing killer cuts discovering many talents as well as his own, but he broke away from it to launch his new label “ILINX”, which fully reflects his views on music. 
Avid vinyl collector since the late 80’s, now he can boast a wide range of records, from the classic to the most contaminated electronic music. Known as a “seasoned veteran”, Sasha is revered within the electronic music scene for his skills and work ethic.
