Punisher

Wrapping up a short summer break, SPEICHER returns with a powerful double bill from rising duo HUNTER/GAME. It's the Italian producers' second contribution to the series, after having amassed quite a few nods with sneaky club anthems "Hexagon" and "Bermuda" (KOMPAKT EXTRA 83). This was followed by their strong rework of Weval's "Gimme Some" - a much-acclaimed highlight of our Total 15 compilation (KOMPAKT 340 CD 125). The new material sees them digging even deeper into the hardware circuits while cranking up the momentum a notch or two: opening banger ADAPTATION doesn't feel the need to ease you into the experience, dropping you right in the middle of its frenzied staccato synth throb instead. Meanwhile, THE PATH opts for rich, saturated colors and epic melodies, slowly building its case until it's ready to blow its lid. These are two extraordinary techno tunes that will command your attention and leave no floor unturned - an essential release for both the label and the artists.

'Yota' is an energetic and shaky dancefloor hammer featuring twisted melodies, live recorded percussions and oriental sounding vocals in Kurdish, finding its momentum with a profound break.

Remcord - Yota

What makes everybody's darling duo ​Monkey Safari so special is surely their authenticity; with their striking debut album ‘Odyssey’​, this meant producing the same kind of tracks they were playing as they toured nightclubs and festivals around the world, rather than simply a listening album. The result was a dance floor artwork. And while they may be perfectionists, they’re certainly no purists, carefully handpicking remixers they see as most capable of continuing their vision for the album.

Split in 3 separate EPs, ​‘Odyssey Remixed – One’​, ​‘Two’​, and ​‘Three’ will be released in ​May​, ​June​, and ​July 2018​, featuring reworks of the original album tracks by the master himself, ​Carl Cox​, international stars ​Hernan Cattaneo​, Guy J​, ​Musumeci​, Tensnake ​and Reboot​, studio geniuses ​Dubspeeka, Hannes Bieger, ROD, ​and Phil Moffa​, as well as up-and-coming talent ​Avidus​, ​Trivmph​, and​ ​Hommage label co-chief ​Karl Friedrich​.

Guy J: ​“I Loved doing the remix for Monkey Safari. The Original had great elements to work with and after listening to all the album I was inspired to go in the direction I chose for the remix.”

Musumeci: ​"Boulogne Billancourt from Monkey Safari is that kind of track that combines perfect harmony and rhythm in a great blend that works great on the dancefloor. The chords in this music composition are epic but at the same time leave a lot of space for reconstruction using different point of views. When I first listened to the original version of Boulogne Billancourt I immediately felt between the lines of the music texture, a piano hook, and a strong acid bass synth, so I added them. The bass line I played in the intro and in the breakdown of my remix, simply reflects the original vibe but according to my vision of the track. It adds a bit of a suspended feeling right before going back to the action with a more groovy drum and bass lines.“

Dubspeeka: ​“Being asked to lay hands on one track of the last Monkey Safari album was a big pleasure for me, as I have been a fan of their work for a while. Even though it was rather challenging, as the original is a perfectly produced floorkiller. So I tried to bring the track into a more dirty direction with a long breakdown, but without leaving the original`s idea too much. I hope people enjoy the results.”

Trivmph: ​“For our remix of ‚Sign’ we took a very minimalistic approach. The vocal should speak for itself and (in contrast to the original) we were aiming for a less rave oriented version, for special moments at open airs...“

Tracklist:
01. Steve Bug & Langenberg - Search For Xu (Rodriguez Jr. Remix)
02. Steve Bug & Langenberg - Senior Elfo (Frankey & Sandrino Remix)
03. Steve Bug & Langenberg - Chord Cluster (Cassy Full On Dub Mix)
04. Steve Bug & Langenberg - A Touch Of Detroit (Virginia’s Broken Touch Of Detroit)

Release Info: 
Steve Bug and Langenberg's 'Paradise Sold' album dropped earlier this year to quite a rapturous reception. It's hardly surprising that two of the more proli c and passionate men in house music would pull together such a com- plete album of contemporary house music.

Happily, the guys have now curated a new EP of remixes from friends and family to take some of the album's key moments into new directions.

'Search For Xur' gets the treatment by Rodriguez Jr., bringing a very slinky, late night deepness to the original courtesy of a bubbling bassline and emotionally charged synth pads.

'Senior Elfo' is flipped by fellow Germans Frankey & Sandrino, whose knowledge of the deeper end of the tech house spectrum gives the track an epic openness.

Perlon and Panorama Bar legend Cassy drops her Full On Dub Mix of album highlight 'Chord Cluster', and delivers a slick, driving burner for the floor.

Similarly, 'A Touch Of Detroit' is re-rubbed by Ostgut Ton's Virginia with her Broken Touch Of Detroit mix, which channels classic motor city techno legends to produce a near perfect slice of hi tech soul.

/Get 'The Last Trip' here: https://lnk.to/TheLastTrip

Artist: Various Artists
Title: The Last Trip
Label: Stil vor Talent 
Catalogue No: SVT242
Release: 2019-02-22

Initially materialising as a fully fledged happening, The Last Trip is ultimately available in tangible sonic form, as a mini-compilation of party-friendly styles under the Techno umbrella rolled into 12 exclusive tracks.

1. Malandra Jr. - Utter
2. Malandra Jr. - Poison
3. Citizen Kain - Crush
4. Citizen Kain feat. Aves Volare - Balance
5. Heerhorst - Centaurus
6. Heerhorst - Hydra
7. Transcode - String Theory
8. Transcode - Molecular Cloud
9. Olivier Giacomotto - Moonshine
10. Olivier Giacomotto - Bonobo
11. Made in Paris - Warm Hearts
12. Made in Paris - Conjure

Classically trained instrumentalist and Cocoon alum Malandra Jr. kicks off proceedings on a dynamic note with a pair of blissed-out tracks featuring blossoming synths, supple drums and whirring glitches. Citizen Kain follows suit with two energy-loaded numbers, the more dreamy and spaced out 'Crush', followed by the vocal-heavy 'Balance'. Next up is German producer Heerhorst who takes a turn for deep and pensive melodies with 'Centaurus', while 'Hydra' stands out with powerful synths and a rattling beat. Bold, intense synths are also at the core of Transcode’s 'String Theory' and 'Molecular Cloud', with the former offering a massive breakdown fit for peak time, and the latter a more resolute atmosphere overall. In the release’s final quarter, we find Olivier Giacomotto with two tribal-tinged constructions, the slow burner 'Moonshine', and its more unhinged counterpart, 'Bonobo'. Made in Paris rounds off the Trip with a couple of stirring slices brimful of radiating synths and spacious breakdowns.

All in all, a steady trickle of dancefloor-primed pieces setting off sparks of all the different types of energy needed to sustain a coalescent set.

For their 30th release Atlant returns to Caserta in the Campania region of Italy, this time calling upon Andy Bros' musical talents. Closing out the EP 'Coming To You' is an assault to the senses, with its crashing retro percussion leading to a swirling arpeggiated hook, underpinned by layers of elegant synthesizers and monumental chords.
