Following on from the summer’s mischievous double header, ‘Octopuss / Karter Bachnabel’ (Figure 47), the two techno institutions that are Len Faki and Johannes Heil are back. If ‘Volume I’ reflected an upbeat, festival-friendly summer vibe, then ‘Volume II’ welcomes us indoors to the winter season, with two darker, straighter and more paranoid weapons. 


Both ‘Dirty’ and ‘Maniac’ continue the strong blueprint of the first EP, with the producer’s trademark rolling bass and intense arrangements making them perfectly-honed for the big floors.

‘Dirty’ takes an old school, intense party-techno vibe with a grinding organ hook leading us into the heart of the beast. Taking the best of 90s techno’s slamming drums -crisp claps and searing hi-hats - combined with the two producer’s top class production, its quite a handful.

No less effective is ‘Maniac’, a more introspective workout that fuses a pumping, warehouse vibe with submerged, filtering synth play. At once psychedelic, yet funky and timeless, it snakes and stalks its way through 7 minutes of classy reductionism. Simply masterful techno from two of it’s key contributors.

[FRAKT027] Hackler & Kuch - L9 (Original Mix)

Continuing his prolific run of new material for the label, Johannes Heil continues to push forward with his 'Transitions' series, here collecting four more unique tracks for Volume 2.

Opening with the serene calm and Krautrock influenced 'Transition Five', a five minute piece that opens up a rich synth landscape full of space and texture, we then move onto the first of the EP's two full-spectrum Techno trips. Hotly tipped for the Summer as an essential Festival and Open Air 'moment, the powerful and optimistic energy behind 'Transition Six' is hard to ignore. That combined with Heil's extremely well sculpted and high-end production, the scene is set for madness to ensue… 

On the flip side we visit more paranoid zones with 'Transition Seven'. Building from a minimalistic stuttering rhythm, a soaring Sci-Fi soundtrack of strings and intricate synth patterns lift the tension, while dramatic sound effects crash and shimmer across the spectrum. 

This then prepares us for 'Transition Eight', in which we find Johannes working his refined club-sound into yet further directions and angles. At once hypnotising and dominating in its driving bass register and captivating arrangement, a highly charged minimalist club tool for 2014 awaits!

Ramona is ready to reveal yet another manmade mystery to humanity – "Reframe" by Benedikt Frey. Browsing through Frey’s back catalogue, one thing has always been certain with every new record released – Frey’s music has always been mystical, was working in different layers and has never been only a further development of the record before. "SH Birds" enters the Single with waves of hypnotizing synth-sounds, a weird vocal-sample and an analog-driven beat. "Signals" has a terribly wonderful build-up, starting with a basic rhythm from a kick-drum some hi-hat and a snare here and there and only lives off carefully chosen soundscapes. "Mind The Gap" goes right the opposite way from the track before – a striking bass-line throughout the track with a hunch of acid, a clap as hard as a smack to the head and mesmerizing vibes all over the place. "Good Night Houston" marks the last track of "Reframe" and starts out with a dark soundscape that drives right into an analogue outburst of old Chicago-ish acid-vibes and loses itself in the haze of deepness later on. Ramona is proud to present you this piece of strange and exotic fruit – let’s relish together.

Farewell,
Ramona

Benedikt Frey - SH Birds (Snippet)

Spanish producer Psyk (a.k.a. Maan or Manuel Anós) is an audio technician who makes good on his name; each of his new releases acting like a steely sonic probe to be launched into the as-of-yet uncharted depths of the psyche. His newest release for the Mote-Evolver label (following last year's Time Foundation album and the EPs Aracade and Distane) is solid and elemental techno as ever: it fits neatly into the label's stylistic template of mesmerizing precision yet never forsakes individuality in order to do so. Like Psyk's other offerings for this label, the new EP works its magic on the central nervous system with a perfectly interwoven blend of up-front anxious sequences and mysterious luminous undercurrents, making for an experience whose energizing effect lasts well after the record has stopped spinning.

Where records like Distane rolled over dancefloors with a metallic, cardiac thump not unlike that shown on other standout M.E. releases (e.g. Marcel Fengler's Thwack), [title here] spins its enveloping cocoon of sound around the listener in a less aggressive - but still enjoyably intense - manner. With its crystalline mesh of bass kick, jittering hats and persistent 8th-note percolations, the opener "Human" immediately lays a foundation which will command listeners' focus, but soon enough a whole new substrata of strange, beckoning noises can be heard beneath this impermeable layer of technoid sound. This 'more than meets the ear' strategy is the key to this new release's infectiousness, and it's once again employed to strong effect on the b-side's "Powder" (which adds driving ride cymbal and a cleverly subtle filtering to the mix.) An additional b-side, "Aumento," features a gorgeous interplay between a high whistling oscillator and its lower pitched counterpart, bringing on the trance state so strongly that you can almost see pulsing concentric circles and whirling form constants as you shut your eyes. For purchasers of the digital EP, a bonus mix of "Human" provides an encore performance of the lead-off track with an additional helping of deft filtering, insistent handclap and percussive depth.

Psyk's basic mission - to map out and expand consciousness with dense corporeal music - is an exciting one to be a part of, as well as a necessary and timely one. In a teeming electronic music galaxy where many producers still mistake a bag of sonic tricks for a wealth of insight and sophistication, Psyk and Mote-Evolver just shrug their shoulders and continue to show what genuine growth and progress sound like.

ANTHONY ROTHER
Studiophysik: Live for the moment  - (English Version below)

>>>> Studiophysik: Das Label-Konzept <<<<
Bislang gab es für den DJ hauptsächlich zwei Darbietungsformen im Club: Das klassische Set als künstlerischer Mix fremden Materials. Oder den Live-Act mit Maschinenpark. Was es bisher noch nicht in aller Konsequenz gegeben hat: Dass ein Künstler nahezu ausschließlich mit eigenen Studioproduktionen komplette GIGs bestreitet.

Genau diesen dritten Weg geht Rother mit seinem neuen Label Studiophysik. Studiophysik ist ein Reservoir selbst produzierter Tracks, die speziell für die anstehende Clubnacht produziert werden. Getragen von der Energie des aktuellen Abends werden die Stücke dann bis zum nächsten Event im Studio ergänzt und variiert. Für Clubbetreiber und die Gäste bedeutet das: Sie werden Teil einer exklusiven und unwiederbringlichen Nacht mit immer neuen Rother-Techno-Sounds.

Anthony Rother dazu:
„Für mich ist dieser Ansatz die perfekte Symbiose aus DJ-Set und Live-Act. Ich kann meine Vorstellung von zeitgemäßen Techno kompromisslos umsetzen, ohne auf viel Fremdmaterial zurückgreifen zu müssen. Gleichzeitig bin ich nicht in Spieldauer und Soundset limitiert, so wie es bei einem Live-Act naturgemäß der Fall ist. Schon jetzt bin ich imstande, mehrere Stunden lupenreinen Rother-Sound auf die Clubbesucher loszulassen.

Ein weiterer Vorteil: Ich kann mit dem Publikum, wenn auch zeitversetzt, in Dialog treten. Denn wenn ich von einem Gig nach Hause komme, bin ich so energiegeladen und voll mit neuen Ideen, dass ich mich sofort ins Studio setze, um sie umzusetzen. Dieser Energiefluss, da beständige Geben und Nehmen, macht für mich einen wesentlichen Reiz des Konzeptes aus.“

ANTHONY ROTHER
Studiophysik: Live for the moment

>>>>> Studiophysik: The label concept <<<<<
To date, there have been mainly two forms of DJ presentations in a club: The classic set as an artistic mix of unknown material. Or the live act with machinery. What has not truly taken place yet: an artist performing gigs almost exclusively with their own studio productions.

It is precisely this third path that Rother explores with his new label Studiophysik. Studiophysik is a reservoir of self-produced tracks that are made specifically for the upcoming club night. Carried by the energy of the current evening, the tracks are then supplemented and varied in the studio before the next event. For club owners and guests this means: they are part of an exclusive and irrevocable night with new Rother techno sounds.

Anthony Rother:
"For me, this approach is the perfect symbiosis of DJ set and live act. I can implement my idea of contemporary techno uncompromisingly, without having to resort to a lot of unknown material. At the same time I am not limited to the playing time and sound set, as is naturally the case with a live act. Even now I am able to play several hours of flawless Rother sound to the clubbers.

Another advantage: I can enter into a dialogue with the audience, even if that results in a time delay. Because when I get home from a gig back home I'm so full of energy and full of new ideas, I immediately put myself in the studio, to implement them. This energy flow, as constant give and take is, for me, an essential stimulus from the concept. "
