Backspin – the imprint launched by Regal as a love letter to early 2000s Hardgroove – welcomes techno titan Marco Bailey with the 'Drivetonik' EP: a powerful blend of past and present that pays homage to Hardgroove's golden era while keeping the focus firmly on today's dancefloors.

The EP opens with the title track 'Drivetonik', a brand-new production that sets the tone: raw, rolling and built to move bodies. A straight-up Hardgroove banger, it's Bailey at his most focused. All momentum, no compromise. What follows is a rare treat for longtime heads: three classic tracks, originally released on the legendary Primate Recordings, now freshly remastered for 2025. 'Hustler' brings the bounce with its infectious and instantly effective sound. 'Karma' leans into tribal rhythms and percussive layering, while 'Konverter' cuts through with synth stabs and vocal chops, offering a punchy, streamlined ride through early-2000s funk. To close things out, Swedish Hardgroove legend Hertz steps in to rework 'Konverter', injecting his signature style into a remix that's as crisp as it is driving, a perfect fusion of old-school grit and modern precision.

With each release, Backspin Records continues its mission to rediscover, revive, and redefine the foundations of 2000s groove-driven techno. With the 'Drivetonik' EP, Marco Bailey shows us why his legacy remains firmly embedded in the genre's foundation.

Marco Bailey - Hustler

irritability

<p>Kostas returns to Phobiq with the stomping &#8220;What U Need&#8221;, which makes heads turn with its rumbling low end and nostalgic vocal snippets. But the real star of the affair is the mega-riff that seeps into your brain as the intricate programming ensures a flawless ride. &#8220;Maelstrom&#8221; picks up from there and opts for a more heads-down vibe, combining spoken word passages with electronic warfare and all sorts of synthesized squelches.</p>

Pre-order:

Portal Atemporal serve up a sizzling split EP for their next top trickle. This one features another Hypnum release, collaborating with Fabrik resident Parsa Jafari.  The Hypnum pair are mainstays and founders of the Portal Atemporal imprint who launched their career in 2019, releasing their debut album ‘2099’. Since then they have attracted the attention of some of the most established techno artists with their second release on Portal Atemporal, ‘December 3000’, being played at festivals such as Awakenings (Exhale), Movement Torino Music Festival, Time Warp New York, Time Warp Brazil, and more. The duo open up here with 'Love Future', a slamming techno track with hard hitting, marching kicks and twisted acid lines. It's pure dance floor dynamite. The second cut from the duo is 'Post Human Relativity', another gabba tinged track with wild synthesis screwing about over square wave bass and dark vocal sounds.

They then link up with Parsa for 'FutureModel', a wall rattling affair with monstrous kicks and incendiary hi hats. Intensity grows with the laser like synths and big chords and ensure maximum destruction. Lastly comes the excellent 'Spaceship,' a track with an edgy urban feel, spooky breakdowns and icy metallic drums all taking you deep into another techno dimension.

‘Love Future’ drops via Portal Atemporal on 29th June 2020.
