TROMPE LE MONDE

Foremost international techno outlet Drumcode is delighted to announce the release of its next full-length album, ‘Satellite’, by enduring Italian techno talent Sam Paganini.

Though he has been active since the mid nineties, recent years have been hugely successful for Sam, with searing techno EPs coming on revered labels such as Riche Hawtin’s Plus8, Sven Vath’s Cocoon and of course, Adam Beyer’s Drumcode. In his time he has been responsible for underground hits like ‘Zoe’, ‘Polyester’ and ‘Fire In My Arms’, all of which demonstrate his dynamic understanding of sexy, dark and hypnotic techno grooves and at the same time have earned him plenty of great Beatport chart positions as well as respect from the best in the game.

Incredibly, ‘Satellite’ is Sam’s first full-length album. Informed by his DJ gigs at legendary places like Berghain in Berlin and Cielo in New York, the album starts with a dystopian bit of sonic scene setting, as if a space ship is charging up ready to take off.

From there it’s a case of getting straight down to business. ‘Another Chance’ is a spacey bit of cantering techno and ‘White’ is rooted in devastating kick drums and is riddled with serrated synth lines that build lots of great techno pressure. ‘Down’ is an undulating bit of funky techno complete with choice vocal flourishes and tracks like ‘Lotus’ are prime offerings from the deeper end of the scale.

No two tracks sound the same on Satellite: Sam is always teasing out a new bit of texture, nailing a slightly different vibe or exploring different amounts of light and dark throughout the course of this most excellent album. This is evidenced by diverse cuts like ‘Dusty’, ‘Toxic’ and ‘Rave’.

Despite ‘Satellite’ being Sam’s debut album, it showcases his seductive style in all its glory across 12 fantastic tracks that will leave you begging for more.

My Life

Fall 2018

ZHU x Tame Impala - My Life

Label: My Favorite Robot Records
Artist: SID Le ROCK
Title: Temptress &amp; The Tamer EP
CAT#: MFR 050

Release Date: April 17th, 2012

My Favorite Robot Records came to life three years ago and in the intervening time has become one of the most respected electronic record labels around. Now the imprint reaches the minor landmark of its 50th release and looks to the talent of fellow Canadian Sid LeRock to deliver a scorching single to fit the bill.

Sheldon Thompson AKA Sid LeRock is a resident of Cologne, Germany, but originally hails from Ontario, Canada where he chose to leave the family trade as a Lumberjack behind to pursue his musical passions, first in Toronto, before moving to Europe. LeRock has been a regular on Ladomat 2000 &amp; Shitkatapult, for whom he has released a string of singles as well as three artist albums, he also records under the Pan/Tone moniker for the likes of Kompakt, Mule Electronic and his own Cereal/Killers imprint.

This latest release features two tracks, ‘Temptress’ and ‘Tamer’ with outstanding remixes of each. The single kicks off with ‘Temptress’, a wonderfully hypnotic and techy cut with a pulsating backing track and LeRock’s intense and emotive vocals. The remixes on this come courtesy of London’s Alex Jones, who offers up a spacious techno reworking and fellow Canadian hot shot, Jordan Dare who takes things down a deep and dark route with a version that stays true to the original whilst injecting its own character into the mix.

‘Tamer’ is a counterpart to the brooding atmosphere of ‘Temptress’, providing a deeply melodic and mesmerising record that once again showcases LeRock’s haunting vocals. Alongside the original, LeRock gets to work under his Gringo Grinder alter ego to deliver a mix that perfectly fuses elements of electro with a driving techno rhythm track, quality stuff.

With ‘Temptress &amp; the Tamer’ Sid LeRock has delivered another outstanding release on a label that is quite simply on fire at the moment and with a full length album signed from LeRock due for later this year there is plenty to look forward to.
