''The Signs Within'' is Drunken Kong's debut album on Tronic, featuring 12 original tracks including two collaborations with label boss Christian Smith and talented Victor Ruiz. With this work Japanese duo prove they are here to stay with some top notch techno. Whilst keeping the groove alive, they deliver some punching bass lines, rolling subs and deep synths.
Each track has a message of its own. The Signs Within, Life We Knew and The Rhythm giving us that hypnotic, infectious and sometimes deliciously sinister vocal stab. Secret Garden and Perfect Dominance both take it deep, dark and twisted with a serious fearless low end and eerie synth stabs. Grooviness can be felt in the funky bass laid down in Mission and As It, whilst rounding off the LP, they take it slow, mellow and mesmerizing with A New Day.
The whole production takes you through a variation of sounds and textures, appealing to many musical palates. Creating a selection of tracks which are not all for the dance floor, but unique in their own way, whilst acting as a perfect complement to one another on this LP.

The Signs Within (Original Mix) [Tronic]

Loco & Jam have quickly climbed the ranks of the global techno scene, proving with release after release that they’re hard-hitting and twisted production style is a force to be reckoned with.  Frankyeffe’s productions are razor sharp and filled with creative motifs that make him a standout of Italian techno.  So what happens when they get in the studio together?  The aptly named Splitting Minds EP.

Both tracks thump with the relentless rhythms these guys have been known for creating, but they employ a fair amount of distinctly musical material, maybe more than you’d expect.  Gigantic synth swells and melodic, arpy builds interspersed between battering breakdowns put this release squarely between techno and progressive, creating an intense synthesis.  Don’t call it uplifting, Splitting Minds is dark and twisted to be sure, but one will find beauty in the madness.

RIOT090 - EdOne - False Scene [Riot Recordings]

Joining the WCF imprint with his 'Distorted Time EP', the Manchester based Transcode brings his driving sound to Egg LDN's in-house label to showcase his versatile approach to production.

With the vinyl press being released at the beginning of November, followed by the digital version, which includes the bonus track 'Backlash', due out on 14th December, the EP includes two remixes by the club's close friends Secret Cinema and OC & Verde.

'Timewarp' opens up the release, immediately setting a tripped out tone with its distorted vocals and a slightly menacing melody, which bubbles under the surface throughout the track.

'Rotation' is a slightly darker and dubber production complemented by crisp hi-hats and well-rounded drums. It is a perfect intro to building up an extended set.

Secret Cinema leaves his stamp on 'Timewarp' with an ominous Remix of Transcode's Original. Again, it fits into the shady feel of the EP but the Dutch producer brings an enchanting feel to the track, with a twinkling melody laced throughout.

Manchester based OC & Verde bring their stamp to the release with their remix of 'Rotation'. Using a blend of drawn-out synths to build up a powerful lead, packed with raw percussions, it certainly shows the sonic direction the duo has been working on over the last year.

Completing the digital edition with a bonus track, Transcode rounds off the EP with 'Backlash'. A punchy and unrelenting track, it's a peak time tune which is one of those tracks for a heaving dance floor to relish in what the Mancunian producer is all about.

Another chapter gets added to the ever increasing roster of talent, that’s strongly shaping up the foundations of Pursuit.

On the heels of his debut EP, Dennis Apec is delivering once again a peak time monolith. A true euphoric smorgasbord of melodies and thunderous beats only he can deliver. Switching gears, Rob Hes welcomes the talented LAAT to Pursuit. After a slew of releases that the two released together, they are back once again to bring you Creepin. A melodic behemoth that is showcasing what happens when these two forces join in the studio.

Friends of the family Duss bring us another acid infused hypnotizer that is surely delivering the goods, whereas Berlanga also makes his return after his recent Sismo EP, to give us the excellent Tacana. 
And for closing duties we welcome new kids on the block 2088 and Comunica, both bringing us that dark brooding sound that we at Pursuit are all about. Please enjoy this collective of art and dedication.
