Following the immense success of her highly-anticipated sophomore EP ‘The Ceremonialist’ for Alan Fitzpatrick’s We Are The Brave imprint last month, Techno luminary Simina Grigoriu now continues her run of impressive ascendancy with another huge milestone in her ever-flourishing career. 

Marking the 100th release on her own acclaimed Kuukou Records, Grigoriu’s brand new single ‘Iron Angel’ is another masterclass in high-impact techno that upholds all of the raw and driving sensibilities we’ve come to know and love from both Simina and her label’s impeccable output. Paying homage not only to Kuukou’s monumental journey but also to her daughter Rosie, ‘Iron Angel’ takes on deeply personal significance, embodying the spirit of resilience, strength and love that Simina so passionately champions.

Flawlessly executed, Simina’s refined techno cut is another prime example of both her technical capabilities in the studio and her growing creative flair. A tantalising fusion of hypnotic rhythms, alluring melodic patterns and subtle vocal chops, ‘Iron Angel’ epitomises the essence of Kuukou Records - fierce, unyielding and utterly captivating. As a monumental 100th release from the label, this fresh offering stands as testament to Grigoriu’s visionary leadership and the collective ideology of authenticity that defines Kuukou’s values. 
Since its inception in 2016, Kuukou Records has served as an invaluable platform for the underground community, sharing the authentic perspectives of both established and emerging artists alike. With countless offerings scattered within the label’s storied discography, Simina’s Kuukou opuses are fully reflective of the label’s forward-thinking ethos. 
Nestled in the heart of Berlin's pulsating club scene, the ever-popular home of electronic music has become a beacon of innovation, pushing boundaries and reshaping the landscape of underground techno. With an unwavering dedication to sonic exploration and a keen eye for emerging talent, Simina Grigoriu has steered Kuukou Records to the forefront of the global electronic music stage.

Turbo makes a passionate case for German representation in techno with this EP from Gregor Tresher featuring Sven Väth.

Rarity used to mean something. Limited pressings. DJ autographs. The one and only Mona Lisa. Now  that we’re dancing in the digital land of plenty, that’s all gone the way of one-night jeans. With ALL of this mind, consider the following facts about our latest EP and get ready to get rare.

- This collaboration between longtime collaborators Gregor Tresher & Sven Väth marks debuts on Turbo for both artists. Rarity Score: 9.2. Real world equivalent: an honest man in Washington, DC.

- Gregor brought the groove, while Väth performs vocals on both tracks, which is rare AND special. Rarity Score: 9.7. Real world equivalent: NFT of “Tiga’s Comet”.

- Väth rarely releases music on labels other than his own Cocoon Recordings. Rarity Score: 9.4. Real world equivalent: a handsome man in Washington, DC.

As for the music, “Flashback” instantly transports you to the exact moment you experienced ego death at an illegal rave called either “Perception Transmission” or “Morph Car.” Meanwhile, “I See You” follows through on its titular threat to validate your emotions. 

Finally, with all this talk going around about the importance of rarity, please remember that what’s truly special is the bond we share as label and listener. As far as we’re concerned, you are NOT numbers in a spreadsheet. You are NOT completely interchangeable. You are NOT the sort of people we would actively avoid in person. What you are is you’re beautiful, and that’s all that ever really matters.

I just have an old, poorly mastered track that I can have mastered here for free. It's pretty crazy how advanced technology has become.

Slam and Obscure Shape & SHDW step up for the second wave of Radio Slave ‘Grindhouse’ remixes on Rekids this February.

One of techno’s most iconic records, ‘Grindhouse’ first appeared on Radio Slave’s ‘No Sleep’ series before spawning multiple remixes from Dubfire, Danton Eeprom, Terence Fixmer and Nic Fanciulli. Kick-started by Len Faki, last year saw the announcement of a series of remixes with more to come from Vatican Shadow, Markus Suckut, Lady Starlight and Special Request.

Complete with relentless kicks, sinister drones and industrial elements, Part Two is not for the faint-hearted. Starting with Slam, the Soma bosses keep things dark, with rattling top lines and echoing effects resulting in a truly decadent techno floor destroyer.

Following a remix of Radio Slave’s ‘Vision’ in 2016, Obscure Shape & SHDW’s abilities are held in high regard by the Rekids owner and their rework of ‘Grindhouse’ reinforces why. Complete with a rumbling low- end, metallic melodies and soaring synths, the From Another Mind founders continue to establish themselves as two of techno’s most exciting names.

What happens if you let some top producers like Shall Ocin, Regal and Balthazar & Jackrock have a go with the stems of legend Emmanuel Top's This Is Cocaine? The result is a stunning 3 track remix pack ready to destroy dance floors in three different positions. This is..... Filth on Acid.
