The formidable Rex The Dog returns with his first single for Kompakt in three years, “Change This Pain For Ecstasy”, a slow-burning disco-glitter stomp that’s charged with analogue energy. Pushing his self-built modular hardware set-up to its limits, “Change This Pain For Ecstasy” is taut and thrilling, stripped-back and pulsating, with sweeping chords shimmering through a classic Moroder arpeggio, as a delirious voice sings out a psychedelic raver’s plaint for liberation, pleading for you to "take away my sorrow and this pain”. Deeply emotional, it’s also a masterwork in tension and release, dizzy with snare-rush peaks, and dark, humid valleys where Rex is bound to the patchbay.

On the flipside, Rex gives us “Moto”, which tickles your ear with cymatic phenomena, its gentle vibrations building, beautifully, into a monster-piece of stealth techno. Rex’s DIY synths work overtime as he chases patterns and phases through circuitry, wilding the tones until they erupt into a spray of pointillist pizzicato. The sounds here crackle and corrode, the textures so tantalising, so sensual, you can almost grab hold of them with your hands. It’s great to have Rex The Dog back, making livewire, yet deeply human techno, alive and bursting with electricity.

Look Around You

The Four To The Floor 29 is here.
Opening track „Dance With Ibiza“ by Ugo Banchi with its bouncy groove is like the unison movements of a big crowd of dancers, each individual, but united through the same pulsating beat.
AFFKT’s „Ganbatte“ starts out as a gentle affair with a myriad of tiny plucks, like the dance of luminescent plankton in the dark night ocean, slowly swelling into one big wave.
„Star Wars“ by Matara is a sombre, almost dystopian track - imagine an array of out of control assembly line robots that suddenly gained consciousness and write their own compositions. Precise, effective, futuristic.
And closing off the FTTF29 is „Hypo“ by Carl Bee, a fast paced techno stomper that feels like a perfect storm.

Ugo Banchi - Dance With Ibiza

What started in 2014 has now reached its 30th edition: Diynamic’s „Four To The Floor“. Solomun-approved and road tested secret dance floor weapons.
Nomen est omen for Uwe Thoma’s „Big Boss Killer Track“ - a sinister, almost apocalyptic vibe transports you into the final level of the game, and all that’s left to do is finish your nemesis.
„Damage Control“ by Mironas is driven by its hypnotic piano chords and crunchy retro-futuristic bass sound - a simple yet compelling recipe that gets you moving.
Shiba San’s „Hold Me“ is like a jump-and-run through techno jungle, crossing bumpy terrains, dodging enemies, gaining momentum on accelerator patches and then free falling over the finish line.
And closing off is „Forgotten“ by Martin Herrs, who blends the gentle melodic scenery with powerful vocals and excited drums, making for a perfect end-of-season and end-of-night moment on the dance floor.

Here is the Four To The Floor 32.
Rex The Dog returns to Diynamic and delivers opening track „Your Wish Is My Command“, an uplifting feel good House anthem, and once again demonstrates his outstanding versatility as a producer.
Up next is Samer Soltan’s „I Want Your Love“, whose infectious piano riff and powerful vocal become instantly iconic.
„No More“ by Alexander Delanois is cue for pumping your hands into the air - a melodic dance floor bomb.
And closing off the FTTF32 are Oppaacha and Rendelman and their „Good Girl“, a deep and dark audio fantasy who’s groove digs its way into your mind.
