12'' vinyl & digital

Counterchange celebrates its 25th release with a special 12’’ by much loved Berlin techno-sound-artist and Berghain resident @efdemin aka Phillip Sollmann: two organic, runaway club tracks, plus remixes of ‘Sequence 100’ (taken from Stream State, COUNTER014), by DJ Skull @therealdjskull and @johannaknutsson

‘Mono’ steers an organic, runaway synth line (courtesy of the classic Korg Monopoly), along a sleek, 136 bpm set of modernist rails. In contrast, ‘Subconscious Dub’ bows to a dusty lo-fi house alter while bouncing to a funky, techno-centric, contemporary pulse.

Chicago’s DJ Skull is a revered member of techno and house history who continues to provide slinky bangers that joyfully evade pigeon-holing. Skull’s mix of ‘Sequence 100’ reshapes the cascading polyrhythms into an effervescent, summery deep-house stomper. 

In beguiling contrast, Malmö-based Johanna Knutsson channels sensitive storytelling and blissful tonal formations, ushering Efdemin’s original through a verdant forest of post-club ambience and subtle harmonics.

https://soundcloud.com/sanjib-4 returns with another creation of an authentic and richly textured world consisting of ambient and dub-techno on the hypnotic techno label https://soundcloud.com/crescent-london. The four-track long EP Flavours Awakening comes with two remixes of Flavours Awakening and Sensing Algorithm by https://soundcloud.com/concrete-gold and Doltz.

The Lyon-based producer Sanjib touches upon atmospheric heights and elevated consciousness with his deep techno productions, including on this new record. The EP takes off with the floaty title track Flavours Awakening, which feels like a melancholic dub-heavy journey, followed by the trippy and just as touching Sensing Algorithm. Both productions clearly have an emotional undertone in which Sanjib once again focuses on establishing a universe dedicated to travel and introspection.

On our premiere pick, Concrete Gold, one of the minds behind Crescent London, showcases a slower take on Flavours Awakening, transforming the emotional track into a hypnotic adaptation while not letting go of the emotional inquiry.


Flavours Awakening will be out on August 29th. Order a copy via Bandcamp: https://crescentlondon.bandcamp.com/album/flavours-awakening-crscnt10

Rumble round
umbel deepmouthed
release wave warbled
sound catches me unaware on time
in wide warm wash
that sits atop the hiss
of sticks sizzling cymbalrim
to describe an orbit as heavy and thick
as Jovian morning

landing on air
vaporfoot
crisp sharp sheer
shard-to-spark
a wild run
toward a clutch of key
to ope-a-door
that was open
all along

drawn down quarter corridors of notes
cottonmouthed and close
to the far-far finding fins
fast-formed to ferry me

found mown,
chipped as a witch's ring,
pulsepasted
pure and un-reified,
pulled apart,
parsed
by the protean eminence
whose sound finds colour
in my bones

the scaffolding brace buckles,
scintillates,
the unit multiplies
its fizzfry edges,
unspooled outwarding,
insides as silver bright
and bruised
as the moon.

This album captures the pre-festival season and exploration of the tribal-house aesthetic. It was the moment of transition in my life, and the longing for a deeper connection that I was looking for.

Marco Shuttle is very much part of the Spazio Disponibile label family: he's put out his Systhema album and various EPs with Donato Dozzy and Neel in the last couple of years, and now the Eerie boss serves up more of his immersive techno excellence.

He starts off in slow motion, with the roomy ambiance and slightly spooky dub of 'Ritmo Elegante.' Of course it's a track carefully filled with little sonic details that make it a very real place to be. 'Arpex' then switches things up with a super urgent, super supple acidic techno rhythm thats overlaid with a widescreen arp that sapiens space and time, and 'Stairway To The Milky Way' is a half time stepper though some trippy sci-fi jungle before 'Qatarsi' rides on a floating groove as sound effects pan all around you and traps you in a state of trance. These are expressive, hard to define and excellent electronics once again from Marco Shuttle.
