In 2024, Eivydas K, hailing from the underground scene of Vilnius, Lithuania, drops his debut EP on Sons Of Traders. Known for his gritty and unpolished sound, he's a member of Digital Tsunami crew and a familiar voice on Radio Vilnius with his Eternal Sunshine show.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

For this 28th Premiere of 2024, we have a track by Electronic music producer from Croatia "Le Chocolat Noir" titled ‘Mehanichki Ples’ from the VA EP "Dance Mekanik Vol II" on the Belgian label curated by Aether (aka DJ Celtric) : Dance Mekanik.

▶︎ The EP is available in digital only on Bandcamp : https://dancemekanik.bandcamp.com/album/dance-mekanik-vol-ii

Release Info :

Various - Dance Mekanik Vol II

The second chapter of the Dance Mekanik series starts with RTRA who was present also on the first compilation. This time he made a more dystopian electro track that somehow reminds me of the Beta Evers/Kommando 6 stuff that came out at the start of the century: brooding electro with 80s minimalwave influences.

A nice subtle build up of sweeping synths, electrically charged noises swelling on and off enfolded by a distorted industrial sounding rhythm assembled by the enigmatic Horos.

Le chocolat noir delivers a relentless banger over a frenetic melody line where a robotic vocoder and a human voice plays call and response with the track title ‘Mehanichki Ples’,

Aether Cvltvre (aether&drvg cvltvre) have the longest track on this ep: it starts with echoing watery sounds before the rhythm sets the pace. While moody keys give us a break, the acid kicks in slowly. Further on the moodyness stays in the background while the lysergica comes flaring to the front. Hypnotic!

Tracklist :
1. ЯTRA - Backwater
2. Horos - P25BE
3. Le Chocolat Noir - Mehanichki Ples
4. Aether Cvltvre - Gletcher II

Mehanichki Ples

TL PREMIERE : Le Chocolat Noir - Mehanichki Ples [Dance Mekanik]

We're happy to welcome back LA-based producer Ole Mic Odd, this time with a full EP that crashes electro traditions into gloomy post-punk aesthetics. The result is six filthy tunes of menacing vocoders, murky pads and distorted acid that go from 2 AM clinched-teeth-madness to punishing slow burners that will bump a 64 Pontiac Lowrider.

Michael Padgett is a West Coast hardware electro wizard who runs The New U.S. Government (label) and has released lots of funky electro dirt on labels such as Kraftjerkz, Zement and Source Material. He returns to Kri Records after contributing to our compilation Trust the Rust Vol.1.

Out on lathe-cut vinyl and digitally on March 15th.

Premiere: Chupacabras - Compassion [SM011]

Italian label ALLEY VERSION continues its 'Tracks From The Alley' series of releases with a fourth instalment in which it continues to explore the oblique edges of the jackin zone, dragging recognisable primitive elements of dance music through the narcotic madness; a possible soundtrack for sleepless nights at the skate park. 

In this new volume, the Japanese producer Takeshi Kouzuki, who besides having participated in the previous instalments, has been, together with FLML, the most collaborative artist in this project, is missing. We should bear in mind that the first volume of 'Tracks From The Alley' was a split album between both projects. On the other hand, this new 4-track mini-compilation features the Greek DJ/producer DimDj, the Italian producer based in Berlin and part of Sons Of Traders, TANS, the Brazilian based in Portugal and owner of the Unrealistic Expectations label Nothing Was There, and the FLML brothers, owners of ALLEY VERSION.

Nothing Was There is Edvan Marques Ferreira, aka MVQX. The project was born to be the output of all his live-cassette recordings and that's the case of the track 'The Owl (House Slaughter)', a raw combo of jackin beats and industrial music, recorded with two machines and a delay pedal directly into a cassette tape.

Release date: March 20th, 2024.

Premiere: Nothing Was There - The Owl (House Slaughter) [ALLEY VERSION]

New compilation on Gravitational Waves.
6 tracks tell the story of what is considered classic electronic music in their own fashion. The artists established all in their respective niche join for an energy driven interpretation of what would otherwise fall through the cracks in the ongoing decay of techno music culture.

Release date May 2024

Dj Nephil - Fractal

Listen / buy here: https://pinkman.bandcamp.com/album/convictions-that-stick

After gracing sublabel Charlois three times over the years, Timothy J. Fairplay finally lands on Pinkman with ‘Convictions That Stick’, furthering his sonic excursions into raw, jacking, yet evocative house music. ‘Convictions’ rattles through drum-machine workouts topped with soaring synthlines, inviting you to spiral in the club's darkest corners. Between the shuffled claps, ominous melodics and delay-laden syncopation, 'Convictions' playfully evokes both the mechanical exploration of urban space, and the claustrophobic intimacies encountered within it. There's even a nod towards 1980s’ cult cinema hit 'The Bronx Warriors' at the end. Naturally, these six tracks find a perfect home on Pinkman.
