Tetrah Mourn [WAGU006:Syrthium]

Back to Techno this time, darker, slower and more minimalist than my previous Techno productions but nonetheless heavy hitting, leading through this dark road.

Frequency (Original Mix)

A trip back to the roots, back to the inner self and what it is to really feel techno. The charismatic Argentinean producer presents his first EP on Andre Kronerts ODD EVEN. Flug, as his name suggests, allows his audience to take a fly on a journey - into another world, another state of mind. No more words now, please listen. Mastering and Cut by Dubplates and Mastering.

Frankie Bromley - Voices 7.1 (Original Mix) [TRM103]

Out now on vinyl only!
Available directly from tresorberlin.com
Download code included.

Throughout his career, Roger Semsroth has followed a deep intuition for experimentation in sound, wrapping club music around eerie microtonal motifs and industrial sensibilities. This new work for Tresor takes a step forward, as the first true techno album from Sleeparchive, where his previous LPs have exhibited themselves more conceptually, or under different names and his Nord Vest label.

Semsroth has been active in electronic music since the late 90s. He received initial attention first for his electro productions under the alias Skanfrom and the 80s minimal synth inspired Television Set. These projects echoed his love for these sounds, which the East Berliner had steadily immersed himself with after the end of the GDR. Upon hearing the bleeps of Mika Vainio and Plastikman, he began to engage with his strain of techno. Over the last decade, he has focused on his Sleeparchive alias, which dates back to 2004. Alongside close friend DJ Pete, he performs live techno as TR-101. His relationship with Tresor began in 2011, first releasing the Ronan Point EP and following up with the crucial A Man Dies In The Street series in 2013.

With this new album, Sleeparchive's impact on the techno sound is ever more relevant. Awaking in constant locomotion, locked-in, unrelenting and dry. Sleeparchive’s churning loops etch visions of tight minimalism at times densely frenetic and others serenely galactic. This predilection continues throughout the four sides on the album, eschewing conventional arrangement styles with gradual probabilistic change. Tracks such as 'Needle' and 'Peccant' offer up precise, sinewy techno. 'Leave' recalls the Detroit sound of Terrence Dixon, with its cascading synth tones and droning atmospheres. The album closes with a different version of 'Trust' to that found on last year’s Revised Recordings EP released on Tresor, with its now-familiar nerve-inducing pizzicato strings even more at the fore with its mechanic delivery.

@magnapia - Narcissist EP (Soma 574d)

1. Narcissist
2. The Sun In My Disgrace
3. Into The Flood Again

Magna Pia makes a welcome return to the Soma family with his latest release, the Narcissist EP. As one half of the duo Cassegrain, Hüseyin Evirgen has been at the forefront of the European Techno scene for some time. Since starting the Magna Pia alias with Soma in the last couple of years, he has taken further steps to cement his place as one of contemporary Techno’s heroes. 

Title track Narcissist sets a strong pace as direct and fast paced drums lead perfectly into a jarring and catchy hook, blended together with straight up percussion and persistent drones. Next up, The Sun In My Disgrace lends itself to a more hypnotic feel as pulsating synths build steadily against a flurry of crisp 808 hats. Into The Flood Again closes out the EP as Magna Pia once again delivers on a trance-inducing trip complete with subtle sequences that ebb and flow throughout the track, building tension throughout.

The 44th vinyl from Hidden Recordings courtesy of JC Laurent with an additional remix by Mike Parker. Deep, hypnotic techno centered around being powerful and effective DJ tools.

Hidden continues its thorough exploration into the deep and hypnotic realm of techno with an avant-garde and dance-floor ready release by mainstay JC Laurent, titled Through Differences. Included is an instantly recognizable remix by spatial sound virtuoso, Mike Parker.

Side A begins with "Through Differences" and its rich, organic textures levitating around clever drum work, building tension then releasing with timely percussion. Featuring Mike Parker’s meticulously honed vision of techno, he’s carves out a brutal remix matching his vintage ritualistic sound locked into its own space and frequency.

Side B begins with "Backwards" and its raw drums aggressively paving the way for an edgy, stripped-down and intense vibe. "Navigates Time" and Space locks you in immediately with a groovy baseline and rolling snares for a special after-hours feeling.

"Silence as Weapon" has a distinct off-kilter sensibility with rollicking drums and jabbing percussion.

"Through Differences" EP

Premiere: JC Laurent "Backwards" - Hidden Recordings

After being introduced to electronic music back in the early 90's in Los Angeles, a teenage David Flores was hooked. He started DJing across Southern California on the DIY warehouse, backyard, desert, and rave circuit. His style then was as varied as the local scene - a myriad of sounds ranging from house to acid to techno to hardcore. After a few years solely DJing, he began releasing original music under the monikers David F & Audio Injection, which landed him on labels such as Monoid, Stimulus, 4 Track & LA label Droid Recordings. His association with Droid Behavior began in 2003 as resident at the now defunct yet infamous and internationally acclaimed Interface event series alongside Drumcell and Raiz. He currently runs a new event series together with Drumcell and Oktaform named “Observe”.

In early 2011, he started the project Truncate to focus on the deeper, raw side of techno. His Truncate releases early on gained critical acclaim from world class underground talent such as Modeselektor, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Chris Liebing, Speedy J, DVS1, Luke Slater, Ben Sims, Josh Wink, Eats Everything, Joris Voorn, and many more. Since then, he has provided remixes for artists across the musical spectrum including Kink, Slam, Loco Dice, Ben Sims, Josh Wink, Ellen Alien, Miss Kittin, Carl Cox & Nicole Moudaber. He has also released original works on 50 Weapons, Ultramajic, Blueprint, Ei8ht, Figure and of course his own imprint Truncate. He has also collaborated with Jimmy Edgar, Chambray and most recently started a new project with Ben Sims as ‘Assailants’ which they’ve released on their own imprint ‘Obscurity Is Infinite’.

A rigorous international tour schedule has since followed, including stops and regular appearances at the most prestigious venues and events, including Berghain in Berlin, Fabric in London, Concrete in Paris, The Movement Festival in Detroit, Womb in Tokyo, Dimensions Festival in Croatia, Awakenings in Amsterdam, Output in New York, and many more.

With his heavy remix, production and touring schedule there is still no slowing down for David. He continues to shape an evolving sound and to champion the Los Angeles underground.
