Behind the next release on Meant Records are Italian duo Boot & Tax, a relatively new pairing made up of Claudio Brioschi and Cristian Croce. Here they serve up three great originals baced with a stellar remix from Alien Alien.
Before now, Boot & Tax have released two extremely well received EPs on JD Twitch’s Optimo Trax and have also recently had their music licensed to Erol Alkan’s Fabric live 77, so the pair are really on the up.
Title track ‘Brace Brace’ is first and is an elastic, analogue workout with gurgling synth lines riding up and down atop steely drums as punky vocals come on at various intervals. Acid and electro, techno and house all get bottled up in the arrangement, which is fresh and just what you would expect of someone backed by JD Twitch.
The Alien Alien remix of this one is slow and trudging, purposeful and swampy. Snaking synths, coarse claps and a sense of foreboding pervade this most groovy of slo mo cuts.
‘Niente Per Niente’ is a dark but balearic feeling bit of chugging disco, with big licks and groaning bass all gliding along at an inviting tempo. Breathy female ad libs add a sense of character to the shadowy drums and ensure this one will set parties like ALFOS on fire. Lastly, ‘Balkan Youth’ gets much more cosmic with its flipping synths, twinkly melodies and rattling percussive patterns. Ascending ever higher, it takes you on a ride through the cosmos and dumps you out somewhere altogether happier.
This is sure to be a breakout release for Boot & Tax who seem right at the heart of the analogue disco revolution.

After Silenzio and Robotique de l’Amour- in french, Vampiros Discos is Theremynt’s third Ep- an electronic journey in Portuguese-tribute to  Horror Brazilian Filmmaker  Ze do Caixao and all the vampires movies that have accompanied us as teenagers such as Dracula and the Likes. Somewhere between dirty house, krautrock and deviant techno, it is an uplifting track made for the dancefloor . The three remixes are following the track’s original path pushing it to its edges: Andrew Claristidge from Acid Washed has given an interesting version both deviant and cinematographic, the Club Bizarre duet is offering a more techno version  with obsessive bells while legendary techno producer David Carretta is immerging us into a new beat and rather technoish hypnotic tune. The result is a perfect DJ tool -worth trying on the dance floor in the middle of the night.

For their latest and perhaps boldest release, Zone have called up the legend Arnaud Rebotini for a new EP called 'Danger Zone'. Not only has the Black Strobe extraordinaire served up four intricate, heavy-hitting tracks, he's also been involved with the very special artwork for the record.

The label have had a specially commissioned bust of the pioneer made and the statue is a pretty striking way to present the tracks. If anyone in the electro game deserves a piece like that made, it's probably Arnaud.

We've got the premiere of the title track and it goes off like a rocket. It's exactly what you want in an electro ripper, it's got pounding kicks, rugged synth riffs and robotic vocals that ooze dread. It's a mechanical beast that sums up the Rebotini and Zone sound just right.

Time was of the essence, more so now than ever. The waterfall roared as the leaves blew in the rising wind. The storm was only going to get worse from here on in and they had to escape. They were running out of time, what had been a pleasant adventure had become a perilous affair and if they weren't careful this trip may well be their last. Time was everything now. 
Dimitri Veimar is the latest producer to release music as part of the Omnidisc Swim Series. He steps up to deliver four tracks with a dancefloor orientation

PREMIERE: Dimitri Veimar - Time [Omnidisc]

La Jungle, a Mons-based duo born in the obscure noise music scene, get their good friend Mugwump in to battle and he triumphs in this live instrumental growler. Rattling drum kicks and snares race from the start, a tight and insistent bass slide gets nagged by some up in the bridge guitar twinkles, and then the claps get the plaudits they heartily deserve. Zooming.

PREMIERE: La Jungle x Mugwump - Cold (Pure Evil Ritual Remix)[Black Basset Records]

New single from Australian artist Tunnel Signs, a precursor to his forthcoming lp on Nein, this single is sound of late night, trawling the sleazy areas of the city, up to no good. NYC's Curses steps with an amazing remix which takes the track to the centre of the dancefloor. Final track Edgecliff has a strong eighties ebm vibe, all throbbing synths and pounding drums.

Longtime collaborators @la-fraicheur & @leonard-de-leonard are coming up with a techno live performance with brand new material, mixing analog, digital and modular, from which the two original tracks from the Sang Chaud EP are the first excerpts, giving a glimpse into their acid and industrial sound ruffed up by a punk energy. 

Berlin born and raised producer @modigofficial released his first EP on Soma this year, soon to be followed by an album. In the middle of this work in progress he came up with a 90‘s inspired remix for 'Sang Froid' like a ravey trip with cutting Thunderdome-like stabs, swirling bass, catchy vocals and playful breaks.

Salt-N-Pepa - Push It (Chapter & Verse Edit)

Not a speck of light entered the room; every crack and crevice had been filled and the windows were covered with thick black curtains that were sealed at each side. Not many would choose to live in the darkness but these creatures only came out at night, the sun had always been their enemy. They was the only life they knew.

Turbo Recordings' Twin Turbo series turn their attention to Barcelona for their next release, welcoming SEEKING THE VELVET boss Cora Novoa for the first time. Having wanted to work with her for a while, the Vitalic's Citizen and Hivern Discs alumni makes a triumphant debut with a two tracker that contrasts in both name and nature. While the A-Side brings the euphoric peak time cut 'Sun', on the flip comes 'Black Out'; a heavy dystopian stomper crafted for the dark room.

PREMIERE: Cora Novoa - Black Out [Turbo Recordings]

A Story of Italo Disco, Indie Dance, Slow Motion, New Wave, Breakbeat ...is now starting.

INCOMING : Sascha Funke & Niklas Wandt  - Kreidekreis #MultiCulti

release date : 2020-11-03

Buy : https://multiculti.bandcamp.com/album/kreidekreis

Follow-up EP for Multi Culti from this Berlin duo merging sleek Krautrock influences, decades long production experience, jazz-percussion chops and funky German vocals. 

'Kometenschweif' will sound the most familiar to fans of Sascha Funke's club-ready tracks, with percussive and vocal flourishes from Niklas Wandt.  'Kreidekreis' takes the tempo down while ramping up the trippiness, a circular journey into funk bass, synth prog, and again, a percussion masterclass. Finally 'Weg Vom Leder' sounds like a lost Falco tune, brought up to date.

On the remix side, Alexander Arpeggio somehow manages to swing 'Kreidekreis' into a digital reggae slowburner, while Whodamanny turns Kometenschweif toward indie-kraut-wave bop.
