On 'I Like Your Bitcoin EP' by Lithuanian producer Pletnev, we’ve got four tracks bristling with hypnotic rhythms and driving basslines. Each track is infused with warm and bouncy groove, punchy drum programming with a sprinkling of Pletnev's signature EFX and unique one shots.

On space•lab 013, Pletnev continues to push the boundaries, solidifying his reputation as one of the most exciting new producers on the scene.

Do You Like My Bitcoin EP

Pletnev - Do You Like My Bitcoin EP (SL013)

The machine held no prisoners. It was electric and abuzz.

In the dark room a noise began to throb and echo, it were as if it were trying to escape from the prism within which it was trapped. It wanted to billow and bloom beyond the enclosure and let loose.

This was the power of the machine.

A cruel carbon beast, which left little the imagination as it roared and screamed.

To some the machine was beautiful, a force which kept the world abound. To others it was a menace.

German producer Borghese steps up with an EP on Squid Recordings. A tech fuelled powerhouse of a record with purpose and drive.

PREMIERE: Borghese - Cruel Carbo [Squid Recordings]

There was an opening between the trees, an arena within which a fire burned brightly casting sparks and flames high upward toward the forest ceiling.

Shadows danced and moved in a circular motion, each swaying in time with the beat of the drums. Their faces were concealed by the darkness, for everyone was anonymous here.

The music echoed loudly, sounds of the wild. It bounced from tree to tree, becoming loud and relentless in the heat of the darkness.

This would go on all night.

Benyayer is set to release a new record on his own label. A bass driven affair which leans heavily into the UK lineage of the genre and reminds us why big soundsystems and the wobble of an undercurrent are all you might ever need.

PREMIERE: Benyayer - Domiray [BNYR]

RIDE’s Andy Bell, recording under his electronic alter ego GLOK, and the producer and Insult to Injury label boss Timothy Clerkin have joined forces for Alliance, a brand new seven-track album released by Bytes on November 8. The collaboration finds Andy and Tim with their freak flags flying, working in a freewheeling environment where nothing was off limits, with influences ranging from Death in Vegas and Boards of Canada to James Holden and New Order.

The woozy ‘Empyrean’, which combines the analogue-decayed production of Boards of Canada and the ethereal vocals of ‘Xtal’ from Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works 85-92 with a fizzing behemoth of a synth line, is a fitting way to launch the album as it was the first track they worked on together. “It’s basically a Timothy Clerkin remix of a demo I sent him,” Andy explains. “I can’t get enough of it. To me, it’s one of the best tracks I’ve ever been involved with since I started making music.”

Alliance

PREMIERE: GLOK & Timothy Clerkin - Empyrean

The sails billowed in the wind. They were all that were in control of the ship as it moved steadily forward across the stormy waters. The sky was cloudy and dense overhead, it looked as though it might soon rain.

Up on deck there were only a handful of men left watching over the course of the boat. They were the ones that had to pick up the slack as the storm hit. Together they were responsible for driving things onward and steadily through the bleak, darkness of the night to come.

It was a wicked dance this. One ship upon the wildest of waters.

Terraflow is a moniker of producer AJ Edward. This time things get dark and heavy on a new EP for Liquid Memory Records as he enters more progressive, bass driven territory and delivers to wondrous effect.

PREMIERE: Terraflow - Pick up the Slack [Liquid Memory]

They were hovering above the ground, gravity was non existent in these parts and they were only buoyed down by the mechanics all around them.

Deep in the midst of space it was hard to reconcile what life was like back home. The people packed upon crowded transport, the busy offices, the weekend entertainment. Out here in the middle of nowhere there was nothing of the sort. At times it was hard to remember your own name.

Some could not even imagine it, the way beyond. Yet here they were…

The Jaffa Kid features on a new compilation, Volume 3 on Kulture Galerie showcases leftfield IDM and Electro through futuristic lenses. This cut is a spaced out, synth heavy Electro jam with raw improvisation and wandering tones.

PREMIERE: The Jaffa Kid - SH Holo [Kulture Galerie]

There were shadows everywhere, they lurked around corners and beneath the streetlights. Their wicked faces were blurry and dark, much like the minds which sat behind their pale shadowy eyes. There was nothing but negative space back there, buried deep in the recesses of their twisted skulls.

The night was chilly and cold, the sound of industry could be heard roaring in the distance. They were building and preparing for what was to come, for it could be any day now.

Smoke filled the air, it was thick and coarse upon the lungs. One deep breath might be all it took to send you into the great beyond.

JR2k aka Jackson Ryland releases a new EP of riotous Techno on Fixed Rhythms. Furious and fast paced with a frenetic energy and poise.

Distro: shorturl.at/RlwHZ

After Denzel’s debut EP ‘Techniques 4 Life’, the quest for finding those approaches continues. The Helsinki night owl draws from a range of influences here on his sophomore EP ‘Glorified Intake’, leading things into a murkier territory than his previous, with tracks made during a transitional period between two cities, H & B.

The first track HKI 13 is an ode to roots. The track is held together by a swerving astral arpeggio combined with chants from a village dance off and stabs that liken to that one Balearic house anthem… The Sun is well on its way below.

Nightrun reduces things to a darker core, howling into the night, embodying a state rather than telling a story. Time goes by, how is it already tomorrow? An after hours tune with a bassline for a hook. Doesn’t get much sleazier than that. Getting down, getting low.

On the flipside, we’ve made it to the beginning of the end, phased out the doubts and gathered up the strength to go on — things are looking brighter. A voice inside your head — trust only yourself.

Finally on the last stretch, light has subsided and darkness has landed once again. We’ve thrown out any notion of what, where and who. Those things don’t matter anymore: we’ve perfected “the state”. It’s go time.

Spectral Bounce returns with a groovy and moody set of tracks by Uruguayan tastemaker Molen. 'Future is Gone' explores dark yet glistening corners of minimal tech house, blending distorted basslines, resonant synth leads, and muffled vocals to create a cinematic aesthetic.

Spectral Bounce’s third release continues to solidify the label’s sonic identity while opening avenues for artists to present their unique interpretations and perspectives, and Molen delivers on that promise.

The B is back! Roza Terenzi puts the B in SBC; bounce, bass and.. Boss. Returning with a four track all original EP “Ministry of Wish” the label head is calling on corners of her ever expanding distinctive sound with a sliding scale (etherial to filth) sound bath. 

Something for every occasion, whether you’re looking to get down and dirty, leave the dancefloor in dust or stargaze via subbass, we got you covered. Recorded between Berlin and Perth, the tracks all signify moments in time that feels like it’s going too fast, an archival stamp on the year 2024; sometimes after a party that lingers with mythical adrenaline, sometimes a personal moment to express reflection.

With the only predictability being Roza’s penchant for Genre Bending, STEP14 sets the tone for the freaky, fabulous year to come of Step Ball Chain in 2025.
