TECHNO

After a lot of great collaborations and fantastic releases on my own imprint AGILE Recordings, I am happy to present you a series of Various Artists Compilations named AGILITY. Each compilation will include a selection of very special tracks from an extraordinary roster of artists. Each track has been carefully tested on the dancefloor, and only the ones that have received a great reaction from the crowd have been chosen to be part of this very special package. This package is quite varied with all mixes reaching new ground with sounds and appeal. In this release we will see some of the finest producers such us: Raffaele Rizzi, Loco and Jam, Ant Brooks, Pascal Nuzzo , Max D-loved and Nino Bua. At the end of the day, good music is good music regardless the genre. What truly makes this release to stand out is not only the lush sounds but the acute versatility and the diversity with all tracks which some of them will get a constant play.Brilliant stuff from Agile.

Following on from last year’s colossal success, Hungarian producer Jay Lumen is set to drop a two track EP on the Kittball imprint this February. 
Jay Lumen has been making a serious dent in the Beatport Overall Charts in recent years by making a habit out of recurring Top 10 chart appearances. The talented producer has also achieved a slew of number ones within the Tech House and Techno categories such as with ‘The Drummer’, ‘Get Ya!’ as well as his massive remix of Kevin Saunderson’s ‘The Sound’. Furthermore with only a month into 2014 Lumen has already seen ‘Say What’ and ‘Nobody’ achieving number 5 and 7 positions in the Tech House charts respectively, an early forecast of another thriving year for the artist.
Continuing this momentum into February, Jay Lumen’s upcoming release on Kittball is one which will undoubtedly follow suit. ‘Find Myself’ is a percussive beast complete with drum rolls and a punchy hook to forge a track geared for that peak time dancefloor frenzy. On the other hand ‘Radio Ready’ provides a more debauched affair, using a concoction of pulsing bass, whirring synths and remorseless build ups which continuously fuel the intensity of this unbelievably sinister cut.

Continuing in the fine tradition of stomping grooves, I am extra excited to unveil the second instalment of the AGILITY Various Artists Compilation series. Fabian Argomedo kicks things off with classy shuffling and gigantic subs, later allowing a disjointed soulful vocal to spice things up. Rafa Barrios&#8217; picks up from there with some intense rollage and smooth bass, and &#8220;Yacid&#8221; from Ramiro Lopez holds things down with a mighty rhythm section and busy snare edits. 
&nbsp; Things take a completely different turn with &#8220;Trauma&#8221;, where a rubber-band bass permeates the thick atmospherics and intricately programmed elements.&nbsp; Sean Collier adds some welcomed bleakness to the package which leads to Juan Ddd&#8217;s cheekily titled &#8220;Dead In My Garden&#8221;, bringing the dizzyness from the ever-fluctuating bassline.

As we unfold the second instalment of our annual compilation of exclusive gems we couldn&#8217;t be more excited to have Mr. Eric Sneo kick things off with the aptly titled -yet grinding- &#8220;Beauty Of The Sky&#8221;, followed closely by the rocksteady groove and haunting electronics of Arjun Vagale. Rafa Barrios picks up from there, strips things down to a bare minimum and adds a cheeky sample which everyone will recognize. Paride Saraceni graces us with a heads-down number, complete with house strings and meaty chords, while Matt Sassari and Reinier Zonneveld give us the claustrophobic &#8220;Gas&#8221;. Closing up, Raffaele Rizzi&#8217;s &#8220;Rebus&#8221; constantly evolves and builds over a rubber-band bassline and commading vocals.

With past releases on Intacto, KD Music and other strong labels we are welcoming Raffaele Rizzi to the Tronic family. He is delivering 3 strong tracks. One addictive and simple phat groove on "T1000", and peak time stomper "Debug ", and a melodic groover "Skynet". Please enjoy and play out loud.

It&#8217;s time for Sasha Carassi&#8217;s &#8220;Echoes&#8221; from a few months ago to receive remix treatment, and Skober&#8217;s interpretation is up first and focuses on the melodic elements of the Original but cleverly adds moody synths which add to the overall epicness of the affair, especially in the grandiose breakdown. Layton Giordani is up next with his trademarked shadowy sound and impeccable arrangement, offering yet another angle of attack. Last but not least are Loco &amp; Jam dubbing things out with bursts of references to the original in key moments, while maintaining a rocksteady vibe sprinkled with discordant stabs.

A work 12 months in the making, Adam Beyer continues his exciting series of collaborative EPs, teaming up with heavy-hitters Pig&Dan for an multi-faceted four-tracker.

Chances are up if you spied Adam Beyer in an airport departure lounge over the past 12 months, he’d have his head buried in his laptop, immersed in creating sound sketches. A long-time fan of collaborations, the Drumcode chief has been on an inspiring streak of form lately, teaming up with the likes of Mark Reeve, Dense & Pika and now Pig&Dan. The results have been compelling, to say the least. 

In trademark perfectionist Beyer style, the title track ‘Capsule’ – a shimmering slice of techno - involved “around 15 different versions” the track rigorously road tested by the Swede and featured in episodes of Drumcode Radio to test dancefloor reactions, before finally getting the sign off.  ‘In Love’ is a big room techno groover, driven by crisp drums and the kind of evocative vocal effect that’ll have hairs standing on ends. ‘Atmosfear’ is true to its name, centered on a menacing synth line and gritty percussion, its deep kicks and subterranean bass combining superbly to create a heady dancefloor brew. ‘We Are E’ is propelled by a catchy synth hook and a classic call-to-arms vocal, which tips its cap to the artists’ shared love of classic UK rave.
