Cliff Dalton - Rise Of The Robot Man LP [Specimen Records - SPEC-021]

Since mid-2020 Cliff Dalton has been influenced by 80’s soundtracks. setting about to create a blend of dark robotic mechanical and deep electro. As an artist, his use of conceptual themes is constructed of elements that create dense atmospheric soundscapes. Probing as an interface between harsh reality and pure fiction. He reveals a surrealistic emphasis on sonic particles into the realms of electro.

The Dutch West Coast, home of the Hague, where Cliff Dalton resides, the home of a new producer for Specimen Records 2021. Although not new to the world of producing with several years of recording and playing in studios, his attention to detail has helped him develop a retro mapping onto his perception of the future. Possibly influenced by Underground Resistance and Drexciya. This accomplishment becomes a metaphor for any small group of people who are battling against a system. The album is an observation of what’s happening right now around us. Our interaction with technology and media pervasion and the rise of cybernetics, in a world dominated by corporate ideals.

Track A3 Travelling Without Moving -
This comes with a more danceable approach. The beat is tight and the swing is irresistible. This is how it’s like to float around, in the ocean, or in your mind. It is all watery business. The melodies are really lifting this tune-up and remind me of old black ‘n white sci-fi flicks.

Release Info :

Rapha - Visionia [Schrödinger's Box - SBOX 012]

Schrödinger’s Box found a true audio delinquent when they discovered Rapha. Resident at Alphabet Club in Tel Aviv, this is a musician who creates tracks with a punk attitude and a painted acid smile. The co-founder of Chateau Royal arrives with four blistering numbers for our box. After the pounding percussion and 303 smears of “Ivanka”, this sidewinder synthesist unfurls the brooding darkness that is “Transform.” Lighter tones pierce the gloom in the carefully crafted “Visionia” before The Exaltics lands for some deep and dreamy electro with an incredible remake of “Voyager101.” Rapha’s original of “Voyager101” closes the 12”. Rasping rhythm patterns cut a path for rich dauby analogue bars in this stripped-back, late-night close.

Tracklist :
1. Visionia
2. Transform
3. Ivanka
4. Voyager101 (The Exaltics Remix)
5. Voyager101

TL PREMIERE : Rapha - Voyager101 [Schrödinger's Box]

Newly launched Dutch electro label LDI Records follows up their first release from T/Error with a deep and dark four track EP by French producer Franck Kartell.

In a homage to masterful science fiction writer Philip K Dick - Side A of Electric Sheep EP evokes scenes from future mechanised worlds. Electric Sheep kicks the 12” off with a melancholic and contemplative moment followed by a steel cold and brooding venture in Voigt-Kampff.

On the B side of this release, there is a live mix of Kartell's track Electro Music, a futuristic electro work out with kicks for the dancefloor. The EP completes with Victoria - an ode to the electronic musician Victoria Lukas who passed away in 2020 - with a beautifully poised and contemplative track steeped in synths.

Franck Kartell is a French producer who has releases on Between Places, Transient Force, Ukonx Recordings, New Flesh, Bass Agenda and others. Since 2005 he has been producing well thought-out electro music filled with dark atmospheres and driving rhythms.

Specialising in moody, atmospheric electro, LDI Records (Lloyd’s Dark Imperium) are an essential label to watch. Distributed worldwide by Clone Distribution, while the Dutch label’s main focus is on vinyl releases, available in selected record shops across the globe, releases will also be available digitally.

PREMIERE: Franck Kartell - Electric Sheep [LDI Records]

For this @DarkScienceElectro premiere, we check out a track from @appliedresearch compilation called 'What We Do Is Secret'. 

This compilation has a serious lineup of sleeper hits ranging from cosmic melodic melancholic, extraterrestrial funk, to cavernous repetitions straight from the mothership… The sound is dark with chromed-out overtones, tailored to take the listener on nightly escapades in a dark neon-lit digital dystopia. Sweat it out to dark esoteric grooves.

PREMIERE: Mercurymen - Galaxian (Applied Research)

The track opens at 87 BPM, with ambient sounds and reverberating vocals creating a sense of suspense and anticipation, followed by a deep, enveloping Reese bass. The tempo changes to 140 BPM and a breakbeat drumbeat urges on, pushing the energy towards new dynamics. The song thus becomes an emotional journey between tension and moments of ecstasy.

Tra la sabbia (feat. CLÈR) [Sacha B. Remix Street Flip]

Un clásico del trance renace en vinilo.
‘Arisen’ de Arksun regresa con energía analógica, pads infinitos y breaks que respiran nostalgia y fuerza.
Esta reinterpretación mantiene el alma del original, pero con el pulso roto y la textura viva del breakbeat de los 2000.
Masterizado con el espíritu de La Sala del Tiempo.

Konerytmi - Konepuisto

"Scientists. White lab coats. The whirr of computers. SC-164 was a sonic experiment. Greg Schappert, an electronic musician known as Donor, was the willing subject. Its purpose? To melt man and computer in audio form, machine music created by an artificial being. But soon it became too powerful, self aware. The creators tried to pull the plug. They were too late. Now this assailant floats from machine to machine, communicating its message through serrated snares and bruising bass. SC-164 was cast aside by its makers. Now the project has one objective, to corrupt circuitboards and speakers with an infectious strain of corrosive electro."
