Rising German duo Township Rebellion land on Truesoul for their debut label outing teaming up with friend and fellow producer Victor Pilava.

Township Rebellion have been building steam in recent years via memorable releases on Rüfüs du Sol Rose Avenue and Stil Von Talent. Their latest cut, the sublime ‘Doppler’, caught the ear of Adam Beyer and after meeting with the Truesoul boss in early 2021, the ground was laid for a label debut.

‘Mephisto’ meanwhile is one of Township Rebellion’s most requested track I.D’s to date and was a special highlight of their show at São Paolo’s Arca supporting Rüfüs du Sol. The track is propelled by a chugging bottom-end, evocative strings courtesy of violinist Roemisch and otherworldly melody lines.

Stil vor Talent announce their new sub-division Light My Fire with 'Celestial Bodies', a floor-busting of a two-tracker coming courtesy of label boss Oliver Koletzki and core element Niko Schwind. As per usual with these two, one can rely on their unmatched ability at crafting electro-techno gems bound to have booties shaking and hearts melting in unison.

'Venus' and its straightforward groove, adorned with a lush palette of EBM-inflected bass manoeuvres and arena-sized momentum, this one finds Koletzki and Schwind delivering the kind of spine-tingling wind one can expect from only best-in-the-game big-room operators. A feast of synth-laced nostalgia and cross-dimensional floor dynamics, all set at running the hoodoo down till euphoric abandon ensues.

The first chapter in Light My Fire's birth is a promise and a confirmation at once.

Leipzig based melodic techno producer Aio's signature sound has won him many fans across different continents. 

Releases until now on labels like Senso Sounds, Stil vor Talent, Parquet Recordings and Jannowitz Records only offer a small hint of his true versatility in sound design. Aio's strong basslines with dark elements, meet elegant melodies, that shake your bones and fondle your soul. 

Aio's energetic sets have earned great him notoriety already with his performance at Fusion Festival's famous ‘Tanzwüste’ being a huge crowd talking point. 

We premiere "Shifting Reality" from his new EP 'Illusion' out now on the Hamburg based Techno Label Alula Tunes. As expected, the track is a strong mix of mystical and driving sounds. a dark synthesizer melody leading to an impulsive drop and is thus truly created for the underground...

"A strong roar accompanied by the gentle chirping of crickets. A dark mood paired with the vibrance of a hummingbird. A universe of sounds that provides endless possibilities." - Aio

Carlo Lio & Boris re-link for another on-point outing on Truesoul.

The pair debuted on the label back in March 2022 with ‘City Lights’, marking the beginning of a studio collaboration that spawned a B2B tour directly following.

Both busy on the solo release front since then with label credits that include Incorrect Music, RAWTHENTIC, Truncate and Boris’ own Transmit Recordings, they’ve saved their studio reunion for an infection two track ‘Dime Lo’ on Truesoul.

The title track is a slick slice of club heat, propelled by perky drums, rolling b-lines and trippy effects. On the flip, ‘Hand Clap’ is percussive and gritty, built on the kind of groovy brand of techno that soundtracks deliciously lost mornings.

Originally released on the R&S Records sub-label Global Cuts in 1993, ‘20HZ’ by Capricorn became the breakthrough track for its creator Hans Weekhout, a Dutch multi-instrumentalist who started his career recording and mixing for international artists such as Falco and Ian Gillan.

With its memorable combination of those rolling and thunderous marching drums, glacial marimba-like melodies and a tense, trance inducing atmosphere, ‘20HZ’ has become one of dance music’s most enduring tracks. Hitting the singles charts in Holland, Belgium, UK and France on release, and still being played week in and week out across clubs and festivals thirty years later, it’s fair to say that Capricorn’s snare drum driven hit can be classed as a bone fide classic.

To commemorate the 30th anniversary of this behemoth anthem, R&S Records have enlisted an eclectic line-up of artists to add their own touches to a suite of remixes. 

Carl Cox helped break this record on its original release, it’s befitting that the global dance icon puts his stamp firmly onto it, jacking up the drums and turning up a big room monster version, ‘oh yes, oh yes’!

‘20HZ’ (Remixes) by Capricorn is available on R&S Records from 16th June 2023. 


Tracklist:

1. Andert Tysma Remix 
2. Marco Lys Remix
3. Vromm Remix
4. Carl Cox Remix

Right after the pandemic EMITR started working with Dubfire as a tour manager, meeting a lot of inspiring and supportive producers, which lead to this track. 

Homologic is built on a concept of reciprocity in nature. It is easy to forget the rather amazing interconnectivity of nature, biology and humanity. Different functions, same structures. We are unique but the same.

We bring you label owner Dubfire and EMITR's longtime friend Fedele's remix from the EP.

The dust has barely settled from ODD’s landmark ‘ODDyssey’ EP yet Arjun Vagale and Ramiro Lopez continue to shell us with more fresh fire. This time it’s down to Berlin-based producers Kevin de Vries and Weska. 

Once again, they’re two new names to the label. Once again, they’re on-point next-gen producers with a collective discography that includes Drumcode, Tronic, Advanced and Kraftek. Once again, the beats are pure floor fuel with the focus set firmly on timelessness. 

We premiere ‘Shape’ which seals with deal with an industrial strength sense of pneumatic, springy funk. Loaded with chops, humanised stabs and a rolling machine funk sensibility that could crush warehouses and underground clubs alike, there’s no messing around with grooves like this. 

Marking a year of outstanding, forward-thinking releases and exciting rising talent, ODD have been one of the best new label success stories in techno this year.
