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.

Great Spirit (feat. Hilight Tribe)

Hailing from Spain, we are pleased to welcome Ramiro Lopez to take the reigns for our next release. The in-form producer has already released music on the likes of Bedrock, Intec, Suara and Diymanic in a relatively short space of time and garnered major support from Adam Beyer, Carl Cox and Monika Kruse. Coming out on 15th May, his ‘Pretending’ release comprises of 4 tracks that have been a mainstay of Adam Beyer’s sets during the latter part of 2016 and now full force in to 2017. 

The release opens with ‘September’; Atmospheric to its very core, the crunching drums and low end rumbles make this one a sure fire weapon of choice. Next we jump into ‘Loving You’ with a haunting vocal that compliments the stripped back yet refined approach of this track. ‘Come Closer’ featuring Juliet Fox is a dark, rumbling number that screams building percussion that lends itself to become a peak time choice, whether it’s a club or festival. The release closes with ‘Pretending feat. KnowKontrol’; An 8-minute piece of work that is destined for unadulterated dancefloor destruction, whilst maintaining that melodic element that Ramiro Lopez is fast making his signature style.

Laercio Schwantes aka L_cio, is the man with the transverse flute responsible for some of the freshest and most exciting tracks and performances coming out from Brazil.

Having turned quite a number of heads with his recent releases on DOC Records (Traffic; People Talk; Schwantes) and with his instrumental contribution to Portable's massive crossover hit "Surrender" ("Best New Track" at Pitchfork, among others), L_cio comes out again with a new 2 tracks studio gemstone:  "Vazio".

“Vazio” (which simply means empty in Portuguese) is a beautiful melodic techno track that grows in space by the beat. “Complet” is a rare and mystic unique sound. These two tracks have a complementary relationship, opposites that are connected. 

Laercio has a series of hybrid collaborations and projects, and does not stop. He is a trained instrumentalist and live performer, who has been establishing his own imprint and new elements from the studio to the electronic scene.

L_cio has an arsenal of ideas and a gigantic talent. A new breed of artist with serious productions and beats.

Born  in  Sao  Paulo  to  a  deeply  religious  family, Laercio  has  been  around  music  all  his  life  -  amidst the  challenges  of  daily  life,  his  adventist  parents would whip out all sorts of instruments whenever the situation  would  allow  it,  introducing  a  young  and curious    mind    to    a    wide    range    of    musical expressions.  It  should  come  as  no  surprise,  then, that  our  hero  quickly  felt  at  home  with  notes  and bars, choosing the flute as his first weapon of choice which he eagerly studied from the age of seven.  Even   later   non-musical   career   choices   always reflected an infatuation with the world of sounds, like his  stint  as  a  capoeira  teacher,  combining  martial arts, acrobatics and dance. With  such  a  multi-faceted  background  in  music,  the inevitable   tinkering   with   synthesizers   and   other means  of  electronic  sound  generation  was  rather  a question  of  time  than  one  of  ambition,  and  sure enough  we  find  Laercio  roaming  the  parties  of  the mid-noughties,  absorbing  the  unique  melange  of styles and scales that inform club culture to this day.  In stark contrast to most other rave inductees at the time, however, he never wanted to become a DJ: his area   of   expertise   is   the   performance,   not   the collecting  and  curating  of  other  people's  releases, and  it  shows  in  the  unusual  fact  that  Laercio  has held club residencies as a live electronic musician in venues  like  Sao Paulo's  D-Edge  without  ever  so much as touching a record. In  these  release  L_cio  has  worked  with  D.O.C. mastermind  Gui  Boratto.  and  the  result  is  music  for the dancefloor.

Drumcode continues its commitment to releasing the scene’s most cutting-edge techno. With releases this year already from Adam Beyer, Pig&Dan, Alan Fitzpatrick, Dense & Pika and Julian Jeweil, this July see’s the return of Enrico Sangiuliano with ‘Astral Projection’.

After his remix of Moby’s of ‘Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad’ back in November last year, Enrico sought creative inspiration from his travels, transcending that into his productions and long studio sessions during the winter months. The result brings a mind and body melting release from the Italian producer.

The title track ‘Astral Projection’ is a captivating, big room techno masterpiece. Deep reverberations punch alongside a sinisterly crisp percussive drive. Launching into a groove laden synth modulation of low end textures, it breaks down into an ethereal amalgamation of pads and synths before the vocal launches, taking this track to another level.

‘Blooming Era’ has destructive dancefloor intent. There is no holding back with the low end synth modulation which Enrico has mastered to perfection. A tightly woven percussive flare moulds flawlessly with the rolling oscillations of the beast of this track.

If you have seen label head honcho Adam Beyer playing anywhere on the globe in the last 5 months, this has been a peak time favourite. Road-tested to the max, and with much success.
