Tencion returns to Manual Deep with his stunning new single Nothing Is Real. The original mix leads with broken electro-infused rhythms and a raw, emotive edge. Niki Sadeki follows with a daring remix, expertly navigating the space between electronica and techno with her signature experimental flair. Closing the release, Tencion offers the Balearica Mix, a beatless, ambient reimagining that invites listeners into a more introspective soundscape.

Ands Mega (AKA Andrés Gómez) is a young music producer from Puebla City, Mexico, who specializes in chuggy techno and creative electronic music ‘without limitation’. After releases on Logical Records, as well as cuts for Nein, Play Pal, and others as part of the duo FLXXX, Ands Mega makes a bold statement on Roam Recordings with “ Hypermanic ”. The track is awash in dark synths and throbbing bass, building steadily over seven minutes with its delightfully
foreboding groove. The cut is dynamic and special, evoking John Carpenter film themes and the European underground in sound and melodic flavor. Two remixes accompany “Hypermanic”, led by a version from Madrid-based producer Telesketch (Logical, Nein) who adds a more insistent rhythm and a gloriously huge mid-song breakdown. El Fulminador (Fulmen Records), hailing from Berlin-via-Argentina, follows with a version of “Hypermanic” that gets into a
spacier and sexier zone. The original’s ‘chug’ is there, enveloped in obscure pads, gentle keys, and mysterious vocal snatches. It’s another captivating release from Roam Recordings, signaling an ambitious 2017 release schedule.

We’re always digging the sounds coming from Mexico of late. So when we were offered an exclusive sneak peek at another choice cut from Andrés Gómez aka Ands Mega, we thought we would of course take up the offer. His new Hypermanic EP is an absolute peach, and we’ve managed to land the wondrous Telesketh remix. Prepare to be blown away.

Stefan Schwander aka Harmonious Thelonious is definitely not a newcomer. He has been around for a long time and has already released lots of amazingly varied music on labels such as Emotional Response, Italic, Meakusma and Diskant. He’s also an integral part of the infamous Duesseldorf / Salon Des Amateurs axis that is an obvious hotbed of talent. He describes his style as "American minimalism vs. African drumming vs. European sequencing", a heady mixture which is clearly evident on this EP though with a definite Middle Eastern twist. At Versatile HQ they were introduced to this clutch of tracks by one of the members of Acid Arab and were totally blown away. Stefan has a very unique production style, fusing all of the above elements with a hint of Gamelan, a dash of tweaked FM synthesis type sounds with a dose of warm ambience and finally his own singular touch on the mix. Here premiered is the b1 "Defender", our fave cut of this delightful four tracker. revisiting some of the A-side sound palette, but catapulting those cosmic tones into a realm of amphetamine fuelled intensity - peaktime drummy psychedelia for any and all dance floors.

JackWasFaster makes his debut for Factor City with four excellent dancefloor cuts that bridge the currents of slow-mo techno and cosmic disco, a perfect blend of darkness and light. The EP is completed with a dope remix by Younger Than Me.

Manu Cachero, a.k.a. JackWasFaster, is one of Madrid’s brighest talents. With previous releases in Rotten City, Nein or Esthetique, it was a matter of time before we saw his music landing in Factor City. JackWasFaster’s work has earned him a wealth of support from some of the scene names such as Andrew Weatherall, Sean Johnston, Massimiliano Pagliara, or Curses, to name a few.  

Opening the EP, we find “Busybody killer” a slow heater where we can hear his EBM and post-punk influences creating a dark futuristic landscape. Tomorrow’s harvest. 
Or not, because there’s a lot of light on the EP as well. “Luddites Fan Page” is a disco-infected tune full of bright synths and instant melodies. Manu’s voice on the background gives the track a Balearic touch. We find the same sound coordinates, feel-good vibes and sense of humor on “They don’t make commercials as they used to.” Here arpeggiated synths lead this playful song, perfect for summer dancefloors as things are winding down or up.
The last original track is “Perro viejo”. And darkness is back again. There’s something to fear in this 12’ apocalyptic jam built around pulsating beats, an industrial atmosphere, and acid synths.  
We asked rising Italian duo Younger Than Me to remix one of the tracks from the EP and they chose “Perro viejo”. They’ve condensed and tensed the original by adding synth stabs and vocal chops. Rave on!

Following up on Man Power's challenge to remix one of his new tracks with constraints and in a minimum amount of time, here's Sam's take on it. 
Everything here is a live take with a Moog, a Juno 106 and the original stems. No editing or mixing. It took roughly three hours to get there. 
Should Sam finish this?

Bridge Guy & Mountak - a happy coincidence, that turned out into a productive collaboration and musical jams. One is a Leeds born House music and Garage selector the other an Italo and Breakbeat adoring Lithuanian. You decide which one is which.

tici taci - bringing you electric funk rekkids at tempos below 120 bpm. No pre-packed freeze dried loops here, all tracks have live instruments well to the fore, from funky wah-wah guitars and deep chunky bass to temperamental analogue synthesisers and live percussion.

Now 2 years later (July 2015) we're at 23 releases from a range of artists and remixers, with one release scheduled each month.


Duncan Gray (biog) : Perhaps best known as one half of the Sons of Slough along with Ian Weatherall - see discogs entry for details of releases. The Sons were a formidable Live act (see You tube) playing regularly across the UK. DG's own releases also gained some popularity, starting with cuts for Scatological (1996) Blue Black, Whole9Yards, SaltHill, through to Aquamelon (2009). Since returning to music production in 2013 he has released tracks on NEIN, Eskimo, Blindetonation, Play Pal, Rock to The Beat, plus Andrew Weatherall's vinyl only Birdscarer label. He has played guitar on half a dozen AW remixes.

Yes, I do want to hear new tracks. I am always interested in music which features REAL INSTRUMENTS - or electronic originality. I'm getting fussy these days...please email files to the email address above. (don't just send a soundcloud link please) If you don't know what the sound of this label is like, don't bother sending me stuff. I get quite a few demos with a note saying "I love the sound of your label" from producers who have clearly never listened to any of our releases.

PLEASE NOTE : 2020 release schedule now full, but I can always make room for something spectacular, or a really cool remix...
