New Zealand is popularly known both for its dramatic Lord of the Rings landscapes and as a haven from the apocalypse for tech billionaires. Perhaps British-New Zealand DJ and producer KEEPSAKES was thinking of the latter when he named his club night and label “HAVEN.” Perhaps, also, living on an island that the rich and powerful believe will outlast some probable planetary calamity evokes an eschatological jouissance marked by paranoia and absurdity. One can sense these feelings in Keepsakes’ Lead Popsicle EP, released 19th July 2024 on BNR, through four tracks of hard techno that eschew synth leads for front-of-mix percussive elements and that, while sparse, are anything but minimal.

Keepsakes likes to troll. You see it in his track titles, and you hear it in the first four bars of opener “Blink and Don’t Pay.” Stuttering over a high-pass filtered 4/4 kick is a tom line so rhythmically opaque that it sounds like the EP kicks off with a shoes-in-dryer trainwreck. Soon, however, the pattern resolves in your head, clicking into place along some erratic triplet grid. When the body catches the groove soon after, it’s a moment of dancefloor magic, and the troll is revealed to be a wizard.

Shuffle and swing, toms and congas, these are the primary colors of Keepsakes’ pallet, which he embellishes with vocal chops and metallic textures inside of a nitrous oxide dome. One simply cannot imagine talking through “Quit Your Dancefloor Yarn,” as the far superior conversation of the drums is sure to drown out any other. The melodically tuned rhythm feels animated, alive, as if the sounds were bouncing out of the speaker in some soft but dense material form, like gravity-defying, rubber-coated sandbags.

“How to Edge An Edgelord” manifests a kind of post-Goa delirium with wild wails of uncanny valley origin. This one has a stiff mbackbone; it stomps and punches, leaving the skittering to the alien chatter of machine elves. What the voices say is indiscernible, but their command is understood. Keepsakes closes the EP with “Tyrannical Conga,” stripping back his production to dial in, hypnotically, on the drum. Texture and tension builds in waves, driven by an unsteady metronome, until its menacing peak is punctured by a laugh, and the process begins again.

For dopamine-fueled bodies and internet-poisoned minds, Keepsakes’ Lead Popsicle EP offers a manic dance at the edge of annihilation. After all, the end of the world seems most certain in the places people go to escape it.

Following on from a diverse set of releases from chugging acid on the likes of I Love Acid and Balkan Vinyl, through to hammering techno on Paula Temple’s Noise Manifesto this EP follows the harder end of WTCHCRFT’s production skills and is rounded off with remixes from Valerie Ace and HAVEN boss Keepsakes.

The A1 kicks things off with ‘OOO’ - a full-speed-ahead 4-4 anthem with looping vocals, charging percussions and rolling kicks ready for the dance-floor. This is followed by the broken-beat rhythms of ‘The Kink’, where vocal hits and thunderous drums combine in another quick-fire club weapon. ‘VVV’ comes on the A3 with more marching drum rhythms and eerie vocal atmospheres before the A-side closes with ‘New Friends’ and its pounding kick drum and creepy film quotations.

The B-side launches with Valerie Ace’s remix of ‘New Friends’ - following on from their recent VA track on HAVEN last year the German producer reimagines the track in to a rolling techno slammer full of threatening atmosphere and disembodied vocal hits. Finally Keepsakes closes out the EP with his remix of ‘OOO’ where vocals, flute-like synth stabs, and acid lines play off each other in a call-and-response pattern alongside tribalistic drum rhythms to end another offering from HAVEN ready to light up dancers world-wide.

BRVTAL ‎– BRV007
Alarico // Insolate // Indirect Movement & AGA2L // P. E.A.R.L. // Keepsakes // CVRDWELL
[Vinyl/Digital]

BRVTAL has taken a new direction in its sonic journey, moving beyond its early sound to embrace the raw mystique of proper techno. This shift has already been reflected in recent digital releases, but BRV007 marks the first vinyl of this new era, a powerful compilation uniting top-tier international and Hungarian producers. 

The record features the driving force of Italy’s Alarico, the relentless energy of Croatia’s Insolate, and the raw intensity of New Zealand’s Keepsakes, who already collaborated with BRVTAL in other ways. Joining them are Spain-born techno heavyweight P.E.A.R.L., alongside Hungary’s own CVRDWELL and the fierce alliance of Indirect Movement & AGA2L. 

This is BRVTAL’s boldest statement yet, uncompromising techno, pressed to wax.

A1 Written & Recorded by @alarico_katana in Berlin, Germany 2024 
A2 Written & Recorded by @insolate_official in Osijek, Croatia 2024 
A3 Written & Recorded by @alwaysstayinmovement & @aga2l in Budapest, Hungary 2024 
B1 Written & Recorded by @p-e-a-r-l in Berlin, Germany 2023 
B2 Written & Recorded by @keepsakes in Ōtautahi, New Zealand 2023

Keepsakes - Impossible (Eating The Sun)
Stream & Buy - https://turborec.lnk.to/Impossible-EatingTheSun

Hot off his killer 2024 remix of Tiga and Hudson Mohawke’s “BUYBUYSELL,”  UK-New Zealand DJ/Producer Keepsakes makes his proper Turbo debut with the Impossible (Eating the Sun) EP. From merciless techno bangers to caustic track titles that will absolutely shred your preconceived notions about the world and sneer at them as they writhe bleeding on the cold, hard ground, this release validates our label’s OCD-level commitment to living on the edge of something at all times.

The title track doubles as a massive forest rave bomb AND the No. 1 battle weapon for opening DJs looking to fuck over the headliner, while “Bongo Funeral” reimagines tribal techno as the chief export of a village ruled by emotionally unavailable gremlins. Next, “Snacks at Waco” makes skillful use of a hammering industrial beat to hammer home the importance of loyalty and community, and “Parasocially There for You” deftly soundtracks anxiety dreams about meeting your favorite podcaster. Finally, closer “Nimby Orgy” likely represents the very first sexual aftercare banger. NOTE: we’ve heard bad things about both NIMBYs and YIMBYs, and as such have adopted a militantly neutral position on the matter of who is f-ing and s-ing in our backyard. 

Given that Keepsakes is a vinyl-only DJ, we’ve done him the courtesy of making this release available both on vinyl and digitally. While this would have been an incredible opportunity to completely shut him out of playing his own tracks, we decided that this would be unfair to the music itself. Because at the end of the day, Turbo takes its marching orders from Harmony, Melody, Rhythm, and Timbre, and to betray even one of our ethereal masters would be tantamount to kicking our own vision square in the nuts. IOW: ain’t never gonna happen.

Turbo Recordings was founded by Tiga in Montreal back in 1998. In addition to launching his own career, the label has been integral in the success of acts like Chromeo, Gesaffelstein, Duke Dumont and most recently, ANNA & Charlotte de Witte. Core talent includes ZZT (Tiga's collaboration with Zombie Nation), Jori Hulkkonen, BETON, Clouds, Harvard Bass, Pilo, Shaded, Dimitri Veimar and a host of new young producers in genres ranging from pure techno, electro, and house to pop. The list of artists who have released music on the label is a veritable 'who's who' of top-level talent spanning a broad musical range, and this, along with a commitment to beautiful design, has earned the label respect in the industry and a cult following among fans. 

“We started out singing into plastic bags and shipping them to stores as quickly as possible. Later, we discovered that vinyl sounds way better when delivered by kayak. I learned so much the first few years…Now, as I look towards the future, I can envision music for poor people, sonic odors for the hearing impaired, even MP3s for women....Vroom, sucka!” says Tiga, the lyrical lampsman lighting the way down Dance Avenue.
