Kr:pt, Berlin-based DJ and producer, also founder of UMGNG Music, is the new artist introduced by Secret Keywords for this eleventh digital release. “Disorder”, this the album’s name, is made-up by four tracks, two originals and two additional remixes: one edited by the Italian duo Noizyknobs, already appeared on Planet Rhythm and Motech, and the other one realized by the label honcho Gianmarco Silvetti.
“X4”, opening track of the album, is a coherent hypnotic path dictated by a resilient and involving bassline. “X4 (Noizyknobs remix) keep the energy of the original track but is dictated by a broken beat that gives it a certain UK style. “X5”, third in the tracklist, defines more Kr:pt’s style with hypnotic sonorities and hints of melodic nuances joined by a violent and pressing beat. Gianmarco Silvetti’s remix of “X5” is the closing track of the album, 909 and 303 in a crescendo more and more acid at highest bpm determinate it as the perfect track to smash the dancefloor.

Release date: 18 April 2019

Secret Keywords is a vinyl and digital techno label based in Berlin, founded by Gianmarco Silvetti and Natasha Parisella. Exploring new sounds is a focus for the project, where new experimental shades of techno have led to featuring artists such as AWB, Conrad Van Orton, Michal Jablonski and YYYY just to name a few.
The fourteenth instalment of the digital series belongs to "Relapso", DJ and producer from Portugal also the owner of the homonym Relapso Records. He has gained from the beginning the support from artists such as Mike Parker, Samuli Kemppi, Brendon Moeller, IORI and Echologist. He’s ready to introduce now “Vrion”, a five-track EP composed of three originals and two remixes, first one by label-head Gianmarco Silvetti and the other one by Wht Moth.
“Vrion”, the opening track and the one that gives the name to the EP, is characterized by a woody kick, light percussions and drums accompany the hypnotic drone for whole track length.
With “Amorph”, Relapso takes a more spaced out approach. Repetitive filtered percussions drive the listener’s mind while the kick articulates the time and the vaporous synth attends the groove in this trip.
In “Coda”, last of the originals and third in the list, we find a distorted bass line driven by a hard-hitting kick, all bonded together by a crunchy drone and spaced-out drums. 
First remix and fourth track in the list is Gianmarco Silvetti’s version of “Vrion”. This is a powerful tool to smash dancefloors. An obsessive groove, noisy drums, old-flavoured toms, logorrheic driving keyboard and revisited drone sapiently panned to move your mind inside this flashy tunnel. 
The closing track is Wht Moth’s version of “Vrion”. He takes a  more distorted approach, his remix drives inside an introspective journey, crossing a bleak and furious path inside dark ambient carpets and moduled synth.

05. Vegim - Cycle (Gianmarco Silvetti Remix)

The eighteenth installment by Secret Keywords' digital series brings the signature of Vegim. 
The well-known producer, also the owner of TMM Records, is recognized as one Techno's most influential artist and has released his music on labels such as Hydraulix Records, Decoy, Gynoid Audio, and Monolith Records just to name a few.
For the first time, he presents an EP on the Berlin-based imprint, and he does it in style, carving the fantastic "Cycle EP."
"Elements," the first track,  is characterized by thick ambiance layers, electronic noises, and drums driven by a bland groove.
"Llamarina," with his massive kick and backbeat bassline, is the perfect track to smash the dancefloor. Vapor shakers and sibilant noises are there to make your mind fly.
Notzing's vision of "Llamarina" is something totally different from the original. Ubiquitous subs and middle-high noises with a slower rhythm will bring you in a hypnosis state, where you can not escape, you're in his hands until for the full length of the track.
"Cycle," the track that gives name to the EP, is in pure Vegim style. Here the bassline is totally fat, the synth line never leaves you alone, and Vegim's signature with mind-blowing noises is evident.
Close the EP Gianmarco Silvetti's version of "Cycle." As always, he wants to welcome new artists in the roster with his remixes. With a bully groove and a hard-hitting kick, layered spacy drums, and an electric shaped synth line, he's ready to make sweat next time you'll hear it on a sound system.
In this release, there is something for everyone, be ready to love it!
