Detroit based electro and techno artist Francois Dillinger (Natural Sciences, Blind Allies, Dionysian Mysteries) collaborates with LDI Records owner Lloyd Stellar for the imprint’s third vinyl release. Machine Men EP sees the pair working in a deep and contemplative sonic world, inspired by the potential future where the relationship between man and machine becomes blurred.

The story of this EP takes place on a future earth, at a time where technological performance enhancing implants push identities of human and machine into a gray area which is no longer binary. On this earth, conservative groups oppose this development, stuck in the idea that machines are subordinate to humans. The EP explores this oppression of different ideas around identity, finding parallels with the same discourse and challenges that today we see in modern society and the fight against conservative, populist right wing politics to create an accepting and equal world.

Specialising in moody, atmospheric electro, LDI Records (Lloyd’s Dark Imperium) are an essential label to watch. Distributed worldwide by Clone Distribution, while the Dutch label’s main focus is on vinyl releases, available in selected record shops across the globe, releases will also be available digitally.

Release Info :

Fleck E.S.C - Rough Silk [Central Processing Unit]

For more than a decade now, Fleck E.S.C. has marked himself out as one of the most playful and prolific producers in the electro game. Across dozens of releases for labels including Bass Agenda and Science Cult, the France-born, Japan-based artist has made his name through a production style which balances limber beats with exploratory textural work.

Fleck E.S.C. debuted on Central Processing Unit in 2018 with the Discrete Opinion EP. Now, after stopping by the Sheffield label last year on a Silicon Scally remix job, Fleck E.S.C. delivers his second EP for CPU in the form of Rough Silk. The record’s intriguing title proves an apt introduction to this four-track affair. These cuts are at once sleek and abrasive, anchored by robotechnic machine-funk grooves yet also full of strange, shifting shapes.

The opening title-track expertly sets out Rough Silk’s stall. Heralded by gurgling synths and all manner of whirring percussive tones, ‘Rough Silk’ blossoms around the minute mark with the introduction of a wickedly buoyant lead synth. This is music at once visceral and full of mystery, the sound of wending through the back alleys, and the feeling carries through to the following cut ‘Hat in the Cat’ - as the synth pads spool out overhead, the machine-funk snap of the beat has an almost aquatic quality that links it back to Drexciya.

Much like ‘Rough Silk’, the record’s first B-side ‘Faking Sweet’ also shifts gears. The opening strains of the track seem to be preparing for another insistent, expansive broken-beat pulse, but it stiffens its neck around ninety seconds in. Programmed drums whirr around a jittery machine-gun bass while discordant synths pull at the edges of the track, all of which brings a strong dystopian energy that increases further as the percussion sounds become increasingly bug-eyed.

After so much excitement, ‘Digger Play’ closes out the EP with a softer touch. There’s still plenty of low-slung bounce to the beat, but the track runs a little slower, and there’s a warm wistfulness in the synths which gives ‘Digger Play’ a painterly, almost poetic feel. However, while it may take its foot off the gas, the production here is as deft as it is everywhere else on Rough Silk.

With new EP Rough Silk, electro whizz Fleck E.S.C. brings the sort of casual mastery to proceedings that has characterised his career to date.

Alavux - Ferrous EP [0ktag0n Records // 0KT008]

This year my Daughter Elektra (who is mirrored version of me and my inspiration and which drawings i kindly use with her permission) turned 10 i dedicated track for her if you dont mind 🙂 for the artwork i used pinball glass artwork from Bally's Elektra which is one of my favourite pinball machines (another “obsession” beside music) so i gathered those into track (spoken word is from the pinball when game is over but not sampled) . Ferrous is some nice metal fusion electro , which was subconsciously inspired by Public Enemy - Black Steel In Hour Of Chaos line "so , i am looking for that steel" by Chuck D. Enough talking , take a listen and enjoy it ! since this is very emotional and personal ep.

A. Alavux - Elektra's Radiation
