Hardtechno/Darktechno

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Brutalismus 3000. One of our favorite Berlin projects returns with a new track on the upcoming DURCH v/a compilation: Solidarity 002 - A Love Letter To The Queer Community. DURCH is a queer collective with a clear vision of solidarity and community building. DURCH operates in Tel Aviv and Berlin trying to bring queer people together, building a culture of inclusion, diversity and tolerance. In the tradition of original raves DURCH organizes solidarity events ranging from parties, to art and community events, with the strong belief that raves are a much needed place for people to come together, celebrate their diversity and learn to respect each other.

After releasing their first v/a earlier in the year, The are back with their second solidarity release of the year: Bolder, queerer and definitely more fun than ever. Take a bit of everything, mix it together and then burn it all down. Building on our previous release DURCH [digital] Solidarity 002 features some well established artists alongside some exciting, well-kept secrets of the electronic dance music scene. You’re in for a bumpy ride and a couple of pretty nasty surprises on the way. Today we bring you the nu gabber post techno punk of "Satan Was a BabyBoomer". 

As always, the proceeds from the release go to Queer causes and this release will benefit TransInterQueer e.V. (TrIQ) and Casa Kuà. Out on April 16th and you can get yours on BANDCAMP.

PREMIERE: Brutalismus 3000 - Satan Was A Baby Boomer (DURCH)

Tenth release of SCTR. We'll present DICA's style which has been based in France.

"For the Hellraiser EP, I wanted to do something a bit darker and less Acid than what I usually do. 
The Hellraiser track is like a tribute to the hardcore rave partys in Britanny, were I come from in France.
While making Death Dance, I wanted to do a kind of dark-trancy-acid-ravy track, a mix on various styles I love with a dancefloor-rave atmosphere.
Rave ! Dance !! Party !!! Is a track that shows my frustration about this pandemic period with simple vocals saying "rave dance and party" on an hardtechno beat. 
It represents what I really want to do now: Just Rave Dance and Party!
Finally, Smoke & Mirrors is a more "melancholic" dark-trancy track, with a melodic synth riff mixed with some dark ravy screech sounds."

French techno ringleader Antigone returns to the fray with "We Are The Soldiers", a dark and brooding two track EP set for release on his very own imprint No Pain No Gain. Over five years’ experience holding down the fort with a residency at Concrete Club in Paris has undoubtedly graced Antigone with the ability to create truly direct and energy focused techno. The raw industrial fever that imbues his tracks has been shaped over countless years of dancefloor exposure, this international luminary has been met with warm reception from industry figureheads and up and comers alike. He has previously commissioned remixes for the legendary Slam, and Detroit icon Carl Craig. Antigone has also released original tracks with the likes of Nina Kraviz and Amelie Lens on their respective imprints.

The EP’s title track “We Are Soldiers” thunders into action with maniacal intent, the blistering rumble of sawtooth synths and nosebleed kick drums bursts through the mix with unrelenting energy. The warlike vocal chant stomps through the arrangement, constantly supplying the track with an impending feeling of urgency and pressurization. The sheer power behind Antigone’s drum work is truly a spectacle to behold, the machine-like clatter of hi-hats drives endlessly atop the thumping low-end impacts.

DS Premiere: Nilya - Panharmonicon [BCCOVA16]

Offend the weak, defend the culture... 
Techno, a word which has become inflationary nowadays. Everyone likes it, eyeryone dances, only few feel. 
Those who embrace Techno have to feel passion, have to live for it, have to expel sounds that make us dance as if there's no tomorrow. 
Respect and open your soul to it. 
TECHNO IS NO FASHION! 
We no longer want to repeat old formulas. We want to offend the weak with innovations, with being different, with the freedom to create. 
We're tired of trivial sell out sounds. We want Techno with blood, Techno that makes us turning our skin, Techno that makes us exorcize our inside demons. 
We want Techno with emotional oscillations, with love. We want Techno with all the elements that make us move all parts of our body. 
To defend the culture with nails and teeth, we don´t want artists who sell themselves, ravers who don't let themselves being bought. We want Techno without prejudices, which inspires us. 
Let us make Techno with texture and taste, dark, pure and raw.

Tracklist:
1. Altai (Rene Wise Remix)
2. Altai (Rove Ranger Gothic Remix)
3. Red Code (VIL Remix)
4. Red Code (Fabian Wegmeth Remix)

Stuttgart’s David Löhlein has been involved in electronic music for a number of years and launched his Vision Ekstase event in his hometown of Stuttgart before providing the inaugural release on the newly formed label which picked up support from the likes of Ben Sims, Luke Slater, Efdemin and many more established names within the techno world. David now invites remixes from Mote-Evolver artist Rene Wise, Planet Rhythm producer VIL and Vision Ekstase residents Rove Ranger and Fabian Wegmeth.
Rene Wise’s remix of ‘Altai’ is a rolling techno shaker featuring revolving percussion, shimmering bass grooves and the hypnotic vocal from the original floating above before Rove Ranger’s Gothic remix deploys sharp hitting drums, fierce modulated tones and haunting leads underneath.
On the flip, VIL’s ‘Red Code’ remix makes way for vibrant, clap-heavy rhythms, driving modulations and resounding frequencies keeping the energy flowing while Fabian Wegmeth’s remix rounds things off with industrial sounding sonics peppered with machine-like synth whirls, menacing oscillations and shrieking soundscapes throughout.

Premiere: Echoes Of October & Tham "Jane Fonda" - THEABOVE RECORDS

VIPER DIVA - Alice

No one hears any sound the same way. Every emotional and intellectual response to a song is a tangled network of deep-seated memories and social pressures. The banalest hook can inexplicably reduce someone to tears, while a passionate crescendo might be deflected off an impenetrable shield of self-seriousness. A pealing lead atop a thunderous kick might be instantly triggering for one dancer, while another is having their future emotional response to music shaped in that very moment. With the first release on his new, pointedly titled label Disco Inferno, I Hate Models teases the possibility of inspiring moments of intense, soul-wrenching nostalgia in one listener and blasting open new neural pathways to profound sentiment in another.
