Ideal Audio presents the fourth and final instalment of Oliver Huntemann and Dubfire's seminal ELEMENTS series. These techno heavyweights have worked together on numerous projects over the years, but it is their Elements collaborations that have shone impressively as a complete body of work. AGUA is the final piece of the music puzzle and completes the series that first saw the light of day back in 2010 with the scorching FUEGO.

2011 brought us TERRA, firm and powerful with its devastating breakdown. 2013 saw us breathe in the mystical AIRE, harnessing the elements of the previous tracks to build a fresh and magical moment. AGUA, as its name suggests, flows effortlessly, helped in no small part by the sultry vocal of Xenia Beliayeva, but kicks in equal measure.

Signing off in such style has also lead to Ideal Audio drafting in some heavy weight talent on the remixes. Carl Craig, under his C2 moniker, dives straight in to strip the original to its core. A single drum beat, siren, clap… and then the kick. Petar Dundov twists the original’s elements into a bubbling acidic stream that washes over us. An impressive package for an impressive finale!

Foremost international techno outlet Drumcode is delighted to announce the release of its next full-length album, ‘Satellite’, by enduring Italian techno talent Sam Paganini.

Though he has been active since the mid nineties, recent years have been hugely successful for Sam, with searing techno EPs coming on revered labels such as Riche Hawtin’s Plus8, Sven Vath’s Cocoon and of course, Adam Beyer’s Drumcode. In his time he has been responsible for underground hits like ‘Zoe’, ‘Polyester’ and ‘Fire In My Arms’, all of which demonstrate his dynamic understanding of sexy, dark and hypnotic techno grooves and at the same time have earned him plenty of great Beatport chart positions as well as respect from the best in the game.

Incredibly, ‘Satellite’ is Sam’s first full-length album. Informed by his DJ gigs at legendary places like Berghain in Berlin and Cielo in New York, the album starts with a dystopian bit of sonic scene setting, as if a space ship is charging up ready to take off.

From there it’s a case of getting straight down to business. ‘Another Chance’ is a spacey bit of cantering techno and ‘White’ is rooted in devastating kick drums and is riddled with serrated synth lines that build lots of great techno pressure. ‘Down’ is an undulating bit of funky techno complete with choice vocal flourishes and tracks like ‘Lotus’ are prime offerings from the deeper end of the scale.

No two tracks sound the same on Satellite: Sam is always teasing out a new bit of texture, nailing a slightly different vibe or exploring different amounts of light and dark throughout the course of this most excellent album. This is evidenced by diverse cuts like ‘Dusty’, ‘Toxic’ and ‘Rave’.

Despite ‘Satellite’ being Sam’s debut album, it showcases his seductive style in all its glory across 12 fantastic tracks that will leave you begging for more.

They say the best things come to those who wait. It’s been a year since Matador delivered the incredible Zoles EP but fever pitch anticipation from the techno community is rewarded not once but twice as Ireland’s global powerhouse delivers a slew of new productions that spills over into two packed EPs for Minus! The first wrapping up a stellar 2014 for the label and the second coming out as Spring starts to shine in March 2015.

It’s impossible to pick just one highlight from this 11 track odyssey of trademark Matador mind music. Just like a Matador live set, get locked into the first beat and follow the path right to the end. Enjoy the peaks and swirls and get lost within the beats. Road tested worldwide by the man himself and by Minus godfather Richie Hawtin, this package leaves nothing to chance on the dancefloor. As if this double EP couldn’t be better news for patient techno fans, word has it that there may well be more to follow from the Irish underground hero. Watch this space!

It is hard to believe that it has been a full three years since our great friend Paul Ritch last featured on SCI+TEC with his awesome Circus EP. Well, he's back and bringing us a truly epic new single… PULSE.

With its machine gun snare and omnipresent bass pulse, the eleven minute (to the second) monster begins. The firing rounds of the drum and intense single note synth spark a flurry of sound before the track drops again with Ritch creating a chasmic feel, greatly enhanced by the hollow bongo riff that seems to echo within the great expanse. 

Ron Costa takes on the remix challenge. Tightening the track with his thumping kick drum and vocal tricks, he creates a ripping groove that perfectly complements Paul's original.

Our hearts sing as PURRFECTION unveils this sacred gift to progressive house lovers worldwide - the triumphant return of Boston-based artist Chris Micali with his celestial reworks of Forty Cats' "Flashback".

The original masterpiece by Forty Cats is a time capsule of pure progressive soul - those intoxicating pads and hypnotic groove transport us to sweaty sunrise sessions where time stood still and every beat was a heartbeat. It's that rare gem that captures the genre's spiritual essence.

Now Micali works his magic with not one, but two breathtaking interpretations. His Main Remix is a velvet hammer - vintage Micali at his finest, wrapping the original's emotional core in those signature melancholic arpeggios and driving basslines that defined an era. The Bouncy Dub Remix reveals his visionary side - same heart, fresh pulse, proving true progressive house is timeless.

For PURRFECTION, this is more than a release - it's a holy grail moment. Micali's return on our imprint feels like cosmic alignment. These tracks don't just move bodies - they stir souls, reminding us why we fell in love with progressive house's transcendent power.

The incredible Henry Saiz makes a welcome return to the label with a spectacular double header.

Just the mere mention of his name sends dance music fans into raptures. Henry Saiz is at the pinnacle of the scene; signed to everyone worth a damn, soundtracking festivals, clubs and beyond across the globe. Behind the scenes, as a radio presenter, director and label head at Natura Sonoris, he's hard at work: a real musical hero with a humble manner and Latin ease that fans are drawn to in their droves.

Opening with 'Redes', muted beats develop into multi-textured flavours that reveal Henry's kaleidoscopic sound to perfection. Finding that balance between melodics and percussion, 'Redes' tells a story through sound as only he can. Delicate and detailed, you'll be hitting that repeat button every time.

'The Quest' begins slowly, entering the dance tentatively. Building in confidence, the beats hit with added weight as new melodies and percussive layers draw you in. Developing throughout, this is another example of a world-class artist at the height of his powers having the most fun you can have with your clothes on! Just sensational.
