Æ Recordings LTD is a brand-new offshot from its legendary Thule Records motherhub – under the strict control of veteran Thule members: Ohm & Octal Industries. The offshot will ensure quality techno for the mind and soul from Thule members and friends – wherever they might be.  

Oculus is one of the titans of the Icelandic techno scene and has been one of its key foundations for over a decade. His live shows have captivated the audience with his exemplarary mixture of deep, innovative and hypnotic techno. His productions skills are unquestionable and we‘re excited to bring you four techno anthems ready to conquer the late night dancefloors.    

Nostalgia is a nod to the older days. Subtle blend of hypnotic mysticism and Detroit-style techno – a instant afterhours anthem! Rydgad is a handy tool for the DJs who love to throw a little swag to their crowd. Its minimal, but still offers a lot of little tricks to make the room work. Morph gets dark and twisted - with Oculus‘s hypnotic voice reassuring the listener in his native tongue that the he is the all-seeing eye of the Icelandic techno scene. The EP ends with the minimalistic mind-twister of „Flod“ – completing the first odyssey of Æ Recordings LTD.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT DEMOS

Your thoughts pause as your attention draws to this moment. You begin to wonder... 'where am I, what was I doing?'.

A sense of frustration passes as a wave of tranquillity washes over you. Riding this feeling, you begin to drift into a state of intense thought. Places, faces and emotions surround you, passing by at the speed of light. It's as if your entire existence was inhaled by the vacuum of your focus. There is now little but a presence of darkness, yet somehow you feel at peace.

Suddenly, your mind blossoms like a flower and a rush of energy passes through you. It pulsates your very being, at a rate that feels so right, so content. Messages sing themselves into your imagination painting pictures of beauty. You're surrounded by lifeforms that creep closer with playfulness. You descend deeper, in awe of all that is before you.

The thought arises, is this real? And suddenly, all of what you have just experienced begins to float, just out of reach. A snapshot of this very instance is stored in your conscience forever. It is this moment that you will ponder for the rest of your waking life.

Groov Mekanik aims to seize these moments and store them as vibrational data that evoke wonder. Breathe deep, move fast and enjoy the ride.
