Breaka & Frazer Ray - The Loudest Woiioii Ever

We're super happy to host this absolute powerhouse mix from Atlanta-based DJ and producer Nikki Nair. Settle into an hour of playfully blended high-energy selections, exploring textures and rhythms all along the techno spectrum.

Keep your eyes peeled for Nikki Nair's soon-to-be-announced EP for Lobster Theremin dropping later this year 💫

In Nikki Nair's words:
I wanted to make a techno mix for this. I guess in my mind it is very much a techno set.. though old style techno is apparent at the end.

///
The A side opening is by Bologna-based Brine, with “YR Body” that provides a Juno-ish bassline with a catchy vocal and a jazzy mood.
Then we have “Benerice" from Daughters and Sons (aka the master Luca Fronza) who throws us into a beautiful Detroit-inspired analog jam.
This side ends with our very own Sicily man Manuold with fresh Italo-House vibes absolutely made for the dance floor.

On the B side, welcome back the veterans Tengrams (formerly the Piatto brothers from N.O.I.A Records) with the outstanding "Rapid Eye Movement"… travelling across retro-future influences and 808 patterns… under a dystopian-sci-fi movie theme.
B2 track is by the Calma duo who plays with a few elements to build a neverending techno climax...did you recognise the sample?
The last track is a sort of relaxing downtempo sunset closure complete with bells, from the California producer Gloved Hands, a name that speaks for itself.

Velvet Series n.2 [flex007][snippets]--- out now!

For the last few months time seemed to stand still. Routine shaped her life now; every day was the same, from the moment she opened her eyes to the moment she finally rested her head on her pillow. It had begun to feel normal, as if this were all that was expected of her existence on this planet. Perhaps she preferred this life; cocooned from the pressures of the outside world.

The brainchild of DJ and Headroom co-founder Jessica, Lapse Records enters the world with a split EP from DJ Gonzo & Dr. Yes and Sasha Zlykh. The former pairing, known for their solo outputs as Klein and Melcher, respectively, take care of the A-Side with a playful techy cut and a spooky, hypnotic groover, while on the flip Sasha Zlykh takes the reins with two tripped out collabs alongside pals Troy and Trippsy.

PREMIERE: DJ Gonzo & Dr Yes - Ekranoplan [Lapse]

to be released June 2021

Generation Loss

Steve Summers-Who Knows (LIES-169)

He awoke in the dead of night, panting, sweat pouring profusely from his brow. He was shaken and unaware of his surroundings; he couldn't get a handle on what was reality. Shadows seemed to dance across the walls in strange shapes and the winds outside spoke to him in a whispered tones — were his nightmares making their way into physical existence?

Zurich-based producer Walid is one of the minds behind Les Points who, along with its sub-labels Infoline and Gentrified Undeground, have released a healthy catalogue of electro, wave and industrial-laced trips, coming from artists like Savage Grounds, Cygnus and Neu Verboten. In keeping with these musical flavours, Walid has been cooking up his own 80s-indebted sonics under the guise of Child Of The Waves, which are finding a home on Belgian imprint Basic Moves. Consisting of seven tracks, the release uses cinematic samples, rumbling bass lines, icy synths and haunting FX to craft a journey that could soundtrack an 80s thriller.

Edition of 300 vinyl:
https://shallnotfade.co.uk/album/time-is-now-white-vol-8

Davide Piras is an Italian producer with a penchant for the tougher, rougher side of British bass music. Creating music under the moniker DJ Chupacabra, Piras has been picked up by labels like Haws and Dr Banana in the past year, and now makes his debut for Time Is Now with more deep raw cuts. 

The EP hits hard with deep tech, breaks and rumbling bass. ‘Grimer’ kicks off with sparse, staccato beats for heads down business before the expansive two step of ‘Rockstar’. With its eclectic use of samples and ominous swelling bassline, it’s a solid club roller. Funky, earworming house is the game of B-side opener ‘Killalot’ which hints just a little of an acidic edge. ‘Morbid’ is a heady stepper with plenty of ear teasing melody and atmosphere. The EP closes with a crescendo in ‘Croissant’, which has a chunky minimal deep tech beat and booming bassline which is destined to send the dancefloor wild. 

Time Is Now White Vol. 8 drops September 17th via Time Is Now.

[DSD031] DJ Chupacabra x Davide Piras - The Strange Case Of… EP

DJ Chupacabra brings a slice of sleazy heat to the seventh outing of Mont Lake Records.

The Austrian-based label have been establishing their vision with a series of well considered releases across their Bandcamp, as well as venturing into the vinyl market with the likes of Alexander Wirth.

Situated deep in the sumptuous mountains of Tyrol region of Austria near to Innsbruck, the collective set out to share their kind-hearted and mountainous nature into both music and a general hospitable atmosphere around the brand.

Does the music has to be named? Do we need to put a gender on it? Does it has to fit in a case? Is there a proper recipe to release music? Don’t you want to unfollow the rules? Don’t you want to let the sounds express itself? 

Here is Tai.no.a, Tai.no.a doesn’t give a shit about the rules. Tai.no.a is free, Tai.no.a is genderless. Tai.no.a is electic, deconstructed, and beautiful. Tai.no.a is not a prisoner of an aesthetic. Let Tai.no.a speak, listen to them, and forget everything you thought you knew. 

The aesthetic is - No aesthetic.

Guy J - January "Between the stars" Mix

Straight off the assembly line of an unregistered production plant in an unmapped cave somewhere on the Swiss-French border, After My Bae is Hermeth’s attempt to deal with conjugal strife and narcotic dependencies by fusing his signature saturated acid with furiously dirty ghetto beats. The man has issues, no one can deny it, but goddamn does the music bang.

After My Bae

PREMIERE: Hermeth - Situationship [Brainwaves]

Break Cycle marks Fly By Night’s third release of 2020 with a heavy fusion of breaks & electro from up-and-coming artist Tom Place in a 3-track EP. Following his releases on Bade Records and Aloka’s Typeless, this year has marked an emergence for Tom as he further embellishes his recognisable brand of techno inspired electro. The EPs opener, Eight Five, is a heavy-hitting electro track featuring a rolling drum beat and an instantly recognisable vocal echoing throughout its’ inner realms. Followed up by its’ more spacey counterpart Break Cycle, a track which builds tension perfectly and exactly surmises what makes Tom’s production so exciting to listen out for right now. Featuring heavy UK bass influences, this track really doesn’t belong in a world where vibrating soundsystems can’t pulse out its’ unrelenting bassline. The EP is wrapped up with the genre-defying Transients, a floaty, emotional track, which serves as a reminder to Tom’s dubstep roots, while still remaining indistinctively electro. Break Cycle embodies a perfect summary of the direction Fly By Night are pushing into as a label, at the start of a busy period of more things to come from both the artist and label.

Artist: Mirror Touch
Title: Balancing EP (Incl. Dan Curtin Remix)
Label: Metamorphic Recordings
Cat No: MET038
Format: 12” vinyl

Tracklist:

A2. Astral Mechanics

B2. Prophet Motive

Metamorphic is happy to announce a new artist to the label family! MirrorTouch is a new project from London-based producer Tim Van Zandyke. The sound of Mirror Touch can best be described by a moment in time when mid 90's trax records from the US Midwest combined techno's brutalist grooves with layers of emotive harmonies harking back to Detroit's funk, soul and jazz legacy. Then techno sound hurtled forward, blazing new paths of experimentation, minimalism and hypnosis. MirrorTouch points back to that magic moment when Techno emerged from Detroit, with a series of hardware tracks that combine emotional rawness with the flow of 21st century techno.
