Eclectic electronic duo Red Axes have today announced their new studio album One More City, due for release on October 27 via fabric’s new flagship label, fabric Originals. Celebrated for their boundary-pushing approach to electronic music and their willingness to experiment with different sounds, Red Axes have marked the announcement with the release of rollicking lead single and video ‘Kid Caffeine’ Ft. Clams (lead vocalist of post-punk band, Warmduscher). Speaking on the track’s narrative, Red Axes explain: “It’s a story that follows the twist in the life of the man who chases his own tail from city to city hoping to find the essence of life which is fame. We had the honour to work with the wonderful creature Clams, who wrote and sang this song.” 

Comprised of Dori Sadovnik and Niv Arzi, Tel Aviv based Red Axes are informed by post-punk, new wave, and a plethora of club sounds old and new. Throughout their career they have cleaved a singular path with their hefty discography and eclectic taste. As a duo, they are the perfect exemplars of how self-belief and achievement feed into one another. They've played in bands together from their Tel Aviv schooldays, and were always driven by a sense that they were going to be great - but this wasn't arrogance, rather it was a fierce drive to live up to their own expectations. Over many years, that drive led them to dig deep into first rock'n'roll, then club music, releasing dozens of records with some of the most beloved labels around the world. The duo have a deep understanding of the connection between post punk and dance via their beloved Factory records, and in the 2000s the same dots were being joined by the likes of LCD Soundsystem, Optimo, Erol Alkan and the late Andrew Weatherall. Now hooked up with London's legendary fabric, they've come full circle bringing all of that together in the glories of their forthcoming album One More City. 

Albums have always been crucial to Red Axes's progress. As their work spread through the club / DJ world and their own DJ commitments sent put them in front of a wide range of different crowds, spending time in the studio every three years or so has been a way of retaining their focus and reconnecting with the fact that, however electronic their music might get, they are still a band at heart. And that's never been more true than now. They felt Israel's club scene has struggled to recover its sense of community post Covid lockdowns, and more widely the rise of "business techno" has prioritised a formulaic aesthetic over the sense of belonging they first felt in clubs. 

Which explains One More City. Made and mixed at home in Israel, it's a return to the rootedness of picking up instruments and jamming together. "When you're older," says Dori, "it's harder to regain that certainty you had in your youth. But when we hold a guitar or a bass, that's when we get back to that safe place, that's when we get our confidence again." And it absolutely shows: this is a record crackling with energy, mischief, pleasure and an understanding of how all the parts of the band's history fit together. Goth, new wave, techno, disco, minimalism - and, as Niv says, "this cheesy, glammy side too, we can't escape that!" 

It's a record overflowing with talent and distinctive voices, from Tel Aviv electropop / hi NRG maverick Autarkic to British/Turkish rapper / poet Janset, from Clams of London post-punk weirdos Warmduscher to Cole Alexander of Atlanta psyche rockers Black Lips. But for all that it's the tightest, most coherent, most truly Red Axes album yet. It feels like a single band, and as they rehearse and do their first festival shows, it's only going to get more that way.

Hungary's leading dark disco and leftfield dance outlet, Secret Fusion enlists Man2.0 for two brilliant new tracks that get remixed by Mufti, Re.You and label bosses Secret Factory. Man2.0 is Mark Bailey, a prolific producer from London with releases on Nein, Wonder Stories and Controlla. His obsession with forgotten 80s gems, EBM and sampling sounds out of toy instruments gives him a distinct sound that has won him plaudits from the Hacker, the Juan Maclean and his hero Andrew Weatherall, who played his most recent track on his NTS radio show. He kicks off this new EP with 'Hooked On U', which spits, hisses and fizzes with punky attitude and frazzled sound designs. The slapping drums and hits jerk you into action and the brooding bassline adds real menace. The excellent 'The Night We Went to the Sea' is more cosmically minded, with trippy synth sounds and sci-fi arps lighting up the space-disco grooves in real style. First to remix is Re.You, the German artist and Avotre associate with a fresh take on house. His version is typically tribal-tinged, with hypnotic drums and sustained pads all sinking you into a chunky groove. Mufti is the next remixer, a project from Bernardo Barrera of Guadalajara, this moniker comes after him being a part of Los Fugazzi and finds him focus more on rock variants and 80's music. His remix is a macho one with whirring machine sounds, dark vocoders and a building sense of tension that is futuristic and shadowy. The by now well-respected label bosses Secret Factory then add their own spin to close out the EP. It is an icy one, with scintillating chords layered up into an entrancing tech workout as curious effects litter the grooves. This is another essential package of new and pioneering electronic styles.

This September, @My-Favorite-Robot-Records welcomes Mexican artist @leonoroficial for a debut release that shows off his evocative synth sounds while the label bosses and Bawrut also remix.

Leonor has often found his tracks at the top of the Beatport and Juno charts, they range from slow motion, dark disco to Balearic beats and have taken him all round Europe as a DJ. Now off the back of support from the likes of Dixon and Maceo Plex, he is back with more of his superb original music. The ‘Xantolo EP’ is a record inspired by the culture of Mexico’s Fariseos, the colourfully dressed and masked religious figures that made their mark on the young Leonor.
The opener is ‘Xantolo’, a deep rooted groove that lifts you off your feet with its rising synth energy. It feels epic and poignant without ever being showy, as distant guitar riffs and tumbling congas build a serene vibe. Label heads My Favorite Robot then up the ante and layer in some pressurised synth loops and more driving hits to make for a futuristic bit of cosmic techno.

Leonor’s excellent ‘El Chapulin’ is a real astral adventure, with sci-fi pads flying by the window as you surf on a future-retro groove. Subtle acid sounds and spoken words drift into earshot to add even more evocative and essential detail. Remixer Bawrut makes music that draws on the rich heritage of Chicago and European house but comes embellished with all sorts of wonderful additions that come to him during digging sessions and DJ sets around the world. The Silencio boss skillfully flips ‘El Chapulin’ into a broken beat jam with pixel-thin synth lines and warm, surging bass.

This EP is a perfect fusion of synth, disco and techno into something new and fresh.

Goodbye 2020, hello new beginnings.  London's Birds makes her Ombra debut with a dirty post-punk tinged tribute to the late Andrew Weatherall. FREERIDE MILLENIUM cohorts, Jorkes & Nikkname deliver a dystopian manifesto to the citizen's of the renegade and rebel truth. Buenos Aires born, Berlin-based Skelesys returns to the homefront, venturing into an accelerated dark wave bomb incorporating his enigmatic vocals and guitar.  Silicodisco & Madrid's Rotten City Records boss, Alvaro Cabana return to Ombra with a hypnotic kraut-rocktechno vibe. Chilean, Ducati Flux, is 1/2 of the Berlin-based live duo, Random Atlas. With a few tracks already confirmed on Ombra this year, this is his first. A slow and heavy-snared weapon, with a nod to the oldskool turntablist scratch records.  Last in the EP is Belgian's NAUFRAGI. A triumphant return to Ombra, with a super cosmic track, Italo and new wave inspired.

Tracklist:

1. Jorkes & Nikkname - Citizen
