Das Licht

(Carl Cox)
Here is a lil clip from Creamfields last week... While playing the latest release on my 23rd Century label 💣💣💣 
This track is from two of my favourite producers of the moment: “Argentina's techno baron" ELIO RISO and Italy's "techno wildchild" Vikthor, they have both hooked-up to deliver an absolute no holds barred tribal weapon for the dance floor...So here it is, OUT NOW via 23rd Century: 'Soul & Trip' - Elio Riso & Vikthor 😃😃 Enjoy! > https://snd.click/ERVSandT

Soul & Trip

Vikthor, Elio Riso - Soul & Trip (Original Mix) [23rd Century]

As Figure begins to move into the next chapter of its label history, label founder Len Faki has teamed up with young French talent Roman Poncet for the 54th release. Poncet's debut on the label dropped last year with the excellent 'Cerate' cutting a clear path for his precisely executed modern techno sound. 

Teaming up in the studio, Faki and Poncet have crafted 'Asua' - a mesmerising display of production skill and a testament to the duo's true understanding of hypnosis. Pushing from the start with its urgent bassline the track builds and morphs its intertwining elements, introducing subtle textures and suggestions of melody - a classic Figure late night ritual. 

Alongside, we have original tracks from both Len Faki and Roman themselves. Faki's thunderous and aptly titled 'Stripped' works his powerhouse percussion along with a textured dub-stab in this straight up club trip. 

Finally with 'Truck' Roman Poncet completes the EP, his rough synth stabs and metallic percussion driving this moody tension builder ever forward.

Soma20 | Slam Remixed Part 4 [Soma327D]

1. Slam–Human (Oxia Remix)
2. Slam–AlienRadio (Harvey McKay Remix)
3. Slam[feat.DotAllison]–Visions (Cosmin TRG Remix)

Release date: 09/01/12

Even in the depths of winter, the Soma20 celebrations show no signs of slowing down. A medley of Slam tracks are reworked by three of the hottest producers around.
Frenchman Oxia brings big bass and relentless rhythm in his remix of Slam's Human track. The original track from 2004 was fast, tense and abrasive and lent its self to the sultry side of Slam's productions. Oxia softens this tight original masterfully as he brings dubby tones and chords to the fore of his mix, while underpinning it with powerful low-end resonance.

Soma's Harvey McKay is up next with as straight and heavy remix of the massive Alien Radio, from the Slam album of the same name. McKay keeps the sequence of the signature bassline true, but entirely changes the feeling of the hook from haunting to nasty. Beeline drums and percussion are what Harvey McKay excels at, and this remix is a prime example of his style.

Cosmin TRG has garnered a lot of attention in the last 12-18 months... and deservedly so. Releases on Rush Hour, 50 Weapons, Hessle and Tempa have seen massive success and have also ensured a busy diary of gigs across the world. His mix of Slam's Visions uses the vocal samples and seductive tones of lyricist Dot Allison amidst filtering synths and loose, swinging drums.
