Holden Federico – Deliverance EP

Holden’s first SK_X release has been one worth waiting for. The New Yorker blends a mix of hard brutal percussive drive and powerful kick drums with his beautifully written melodies which stem from his background in classical music. Throughout the EP Holden’s musical background is ever dominant–vibrant synth lines provide a sense of body and feeling in the music, while straight techno rhythms keep the dance floor happy and the feet moving. 

As well as producing and DJing, Holden’s passion lies firmly in digging records. Through finding hidden 90s gems, his Instagram page has become very popular amongst a lot of heads in the scene.

Founded in 2022, SHDW’s Mutual Rytm label has quickly become one of techno’s most supported labels, with wide-reaching love and well-earned hype following a series of carefully curated VA offerings and solo EPs from a wealth of the scene’s best. Continuing to push the pace, with more records capturing high-quality, fresh soundscapes, April brings a new project to the mix with the launch of a new sub-label X, with techno pioneer Exos drafted to deliver the first instalment.

Hailing from Iceland, the Planet X boss is a master of crafting perfect dancefloor weaponry. Over the last twenty years, his high-octane sounds have come via vital labels like Figure and X/OZ, never failing to make an impact with both DJs and dancers. Whether dubby or hard, his techno is always authentic and channels the purity of the 90s sound, and he brings this signature sound to four fresh productions across his ‘Infrared’ EP, marking an impressive debut for both label and artist.

The title cut ‘Infrared’ opens up the package in style and showcases a track that looks set to be a go-to anthem for many in the months ahead. With searing synth lines and drilling bass, the blistering production delivers a thrilling, high-impact techno sound that will devastate the dancefloor. The well-designed ‘Kaldur Klaki’ ups the ante even more with tightly coiled loops of drums, rusty hi-hats and stuttering synth lines that canter along with a muscular feel. ‘The Bad’ is twitchy and paranoid, anxiety-riddled techno that is perfect for dark warehouses and freaky dancers before digital bonus ‘DS4BR’ lands with a more stripped-back aesthetic with dubby undercurrents and static electricity fizzing across the face of the cut.

Each of the releases on Mutual Rytm X will be available on limited edition, coloured 10” vinyl, hence the Roman numeral X, and Exos’ ‘Infrared’ EP kicks off the series on 19th April ahead of a new wave of killer releases scheduled across 2024.

Dro y Stepan Gusak abren su nuevo EP en Parallel Romance con “Alligator Alley”, un corte diseñado para la zona más física del techno actual. El track se construye sobre un low-end continuo y muy controlado, líneas rítmicas en avance constante y un uso inteligente de la tensión que evita los picos artificiales. Todo está orientado al peak-time, pero con una mezcla limpia y una ingeniería que prioriza claridad sobre saturación.

El groove, marcado por percusiones secas y modulaciones sutiles, mantiene un pulso hipnótico que funciona igual de bien en un club oscuro que en sets de gran formato. Sin buscar complejidad innecesaria, “Alligator Alley” es un ejemplo claro de cómo un track directo puede ganar fuerza a través de la estructura, la dinámica y la precisión en cada capa.

Una referencia sólida de Parallel Romance, y una muestra del lenguaje rítmico que Dro y Gusak siguen consolidando: techno funcional, musculado y sin distracciones.

Jon Hussey, a pioneer of the Irish Techno scene DJing since the early nineties, kick-starting at the infamous Planet Dub night in Dublin. He has promoted and resided at many Techno clubs throughout Ireland as well as playing in many Techno havens across the world including Amsterdam, London, New York, Bratislava, Berlin, Leeds and Turin.

In '99 Jon was among the first group from Ireland to qualify for the Red Bull Music Academy which was held in Berlin. Over the past decade he has kept this passion nurtured by being continuously involved in similar projects and innovations and recently organised a group of young rising Irish DJs and producers to participate at the pioneering PLUG “Plug European Electronic Music Conference” in Berlin. 

Music wise Jon has played alongside many of his all time favourite artists from Plaid to Surgeon, Joey Beltram, Jeff Mills, Steve Bicknell, Sunil Sharpe, Takaaki Itoh, Ancient Methods, Loktibrada, Rumenige, Dave Clarke, Mark Broom, Henning Baer, Inigo kennedy, Neil Landstrumm, Reeko, Grovskopa, DJ Boss, Bas Mooy, Perc, Hardfloor, Oscar Mulero, Jerome Hill, AnD, Truss, Paula Temple, Christian Wunsch and Exium!!

In 2011 Jon dedicated some production time with fellow Techno DJ Sunil Sharpe as part of a joint project under the moniker Tricaustic and released “the Caustophobic Pressure EP” on Komisch records which was well received and supported by artists such as Dave Clarke, Surgeon, Peter Van Hoesen, Anthony Shakir, Smear, Kriz, DJ 3000 and many more.

Recently the national radio station (2FM) were quoted in their Late Night Sessions Blog as stating that “Jon Hussey is one of the longest serving true purveyors of Techno in Ireland, running nights in the early days of Dublin's dance scene, when techno to most people meant U96 or 2 Unlimited. Consistently one of the best DJs around, Jon never lets the side down” giving a rare insight into Jon's personality as a DJ!
