Axces Recordings is releasing their second various artist release “Trip Wire EP”. Compiling 4 different tracks from 4 different artists focussing on minimal experimental techno club music. The record premieres Søren Kinch aka CX alongside the usual gang: Alfredo92, Kasper Marott and Popmix.

Trip Wire’s 4 tracks all have common denominators of being moody, trippy and darker than the usual Axces euphoria. All composed from an idea of linearity, whether it being the straightforward grooviness of the track IZA, the 8 minute suspenseful robotic tantra workout in Kasper Marotts “Welcome” or the more laid back in the sofa, über minimal parade in Popmix’s Ultima. With the opener track “Sjunne” Sørens Kinch or CX makes a promising debut. The track is ultimately the most romantic piece of music on this next edition of Axces music frisbees, with swirling pads and a kick drum that goes deep as the ocean.

EP written and produced by Søren Kinch, Alfred Toft, Frits Carøe and Kasper Marott.

North London-based producer and Reprezent Radio DJ RALPH, delves into the depths with an intricate, breaks-heavy future anthem.

In the heart of the ancient forest, a community of druids thrived under the guidance of their wise leader, Ralph. With their deep connection to nature, they harnessed the power of the land to weave spells that protected their realm. One fateful night, a vivid and lucid dream swept through the forest, foretelling an impending darkness that would engulf their home.

Ralph convened the druids to decipher the dream’s cryptic message. As they meditated, the forest responded with whispers, revealing that a malevolent force sought to drain the life essence of the land. Determined to thwart this threat, Ralph and his druids embarked on a journey to gather the rare and powerful components needed to cast a protective spell.

Ralph led his companions through treacherous terrain and faced formidable challenges. They channelled their innate magic through their shared connection and Ralph’s leadership, fusing their energies into a potent incantation. The spell enveloped the forest, repelling the darkness and preserving the realm’s harmony. Ralph’s lucid understanding of the dream had saved their sacred home, affirming the druids’ unbreakable bond with the land.
 

North London-based producer and Reprezent Radio DJ RALPH, delves into the depths through his dark and emotive palette. With a background in filmmaking – he was part of Boiler Room’s eponymous events imprint – he’s worked alongside notable artists. Lockdown led RALPH to craft introspective music, reflecting on the contrast between the once-thriving electronic scene and the pandemic-induced creative isolation. The resulting TIME EP merges narrative-driven electronica, influenced by his directorial pursuits.

We’re premiering the lead cut Lucid, an intricate breaks heavy future anthem.

RALPH’s ‘Time’ EP is 28th September.

Fu Dog’s Heksie Rhythm EP is an ode to the unordinary, bouncing between dreamy distortions, vibey electronica and ambient dance music. First up, AllFearNoLies is a deep dive into the sonic subconscious of its creator, and an emotional, drum-less entry to an EP later boasting more upbeat compositions. Next in line, Heksie Rhythm is a glimpse into a live jam session with friends, sampled into a bass-heavy, colourful electronic anthem. Third on the list, Fuck [2] Perfection features a floating, moody arpeggiation, carried by organic drums and a very playful arrangement. Last up, What You Think is the only dance track on the EP, ending things off with a spacious, driving, subdued thumper

As the title name suggests, the EP is seen as an exploration through different universes. Influences can be heard from equal parts of early millennia console games to the sounds of underground heroes. Traversing through break-beat and jungle, moving in BPMs unlike before, the duo will guide you through a dimension you did not expect.

Ascension is about moving our consciousness from one reality to another. Since reality is a dimension, what we are undertaking is essentially a full dimensional shift.

Croatian dj/producer Iggy Dope launched his record label with a versatile V/A compilation featuring 8th international and inter-generational talents from different corners of the genre spectrum and scenes (Italy, USA, Austria, Germany, UK).

The inaugural compilation by Etherwerkz is packed with high-vibrational bass-heavy club music from friends and faves, setting the tone for the Etherwerkz genre-free sound and vision, from etherial experiments heard in the intro by Weightausend, peak time tech-uk funky by Xen Chron, hi-tek hood electro from Soular-Dj Phiene and User Delusion, through bass bangers from Toupaz and Lindenberg Support wrapping it up with 160 bpm tekkerz by Johnny Megabyte and Dj Balance.

Huge thanks to the artists involved for their patience, trust and amazing trax and art that they have so generously contributed to make all this happen!

Tracks 2, 4 ,6 ,7 mastered by Dj Anunak.

PREMIERE: Soular​-​Dj Phiene - Dark Quarantine [EtherwerkZ]

Fata Morgana’s concept draws from @ispirian's live sets in the USA. Then, back in Europe, Vasco refined his performance and the live takes were finally mixed and mastered in Madrid. The project sees the light in 2023, after the global impasse the world went through, as a two EP installment: Fata Morgana I & II.

Like a complex optical illusion perceived as a banner over the sea horizon, where sight is significantly distorted and changes rapidly, unlike any other ordinary mirage, a true Fata Morgana comprises several inverted and steepled illusions, stacked on one another, showing alternating compressed and stretched sonic lands.

The term named after the Mistress of the Fairies of the Salt Sea, King Arthur's half-sister Morgan le Fay, encapsulates the hallucinatory prowess of the seduction myth, a symbol of incantation and sensorial catharsis among the pleasure and the pain meanders.
