TFGC022 - Mekine U Teksi - Steppenroboter versus Transeuropa

Evocative and spooky contemporary prog. Mekine U Teksi has absolutely nailed it to fetishist levels. It sounds like the synths were certainly the only thing keeping the castle warm the night this was recorded.
The whole record is made even more unnerving by the fact that the 4th track doesn't exist... scary!

Acid Youth returns Elephant Gait with a new EP, "Devil in Mr. Jones," marking the 10th, jubilee, release on the label.

Due to continued nightmare in the Middle East and the ongoing suffering of the Palestinian population, we have decided to donate all sales proceeds to The Ghassan Abu Sittah Children's Fund. you can donate directly here: https://gascf.org/ or purchase the release.

Mr. Jones embodies the ego of modern man, greedy, cold-blooded, heartless, driven by an unyielding pursuit of personal well-being at any cost. To him, nothing else matters. He must get what he wants; stepping over people's heads, trampling their destinies, destroying this world if necessary. Once he does, there will always be another goal to strive for.
However, we remember: almost everything we accumulate, we take from someone else or from nature, often giving nothing in return. The world is full of this ego and it's time to rediscover what really matters.

"Devil in Mr. Jones" is a three-track EP: the title track is deeply rooted in EBM, "The Future" marches forward with an acid groove, and "Before The Sun Will Rise" takes you on a late-night psychedelic journey. The sound is shaped by iconic machines such as the Roland TB-303, Arp Odyssey, Roland TR-808, Roland CR-78, Syncussion, Moog DFAM, and Oberheim OB-XA, blending raw analog textures with hypnotic rhythms.

Everyone could face their own Mr. Jones at some point; the question is how to remain a human being.

Ransom Note Records are over the moon to welcome illustrious French Electronic duo Froid Dub to the fold for the debut 12” vinyl release with us, Tears Maker Chant. Head honchos of the wonderful Delodio label, Stéphane and François, mark the 50th release for R$N Recs, and this is without a shadow of a doubt an incredibly special one for us. So, sit back and ready yourself for some inimitable Froid Dub cuts; laid back but pounding, graceful yet aggressive but above all, thoroughly danceable.

First single On The Nose enters next, with a delightfully soft, round bass that feels like bouncing around a padded room. Inside a Zorb. On MDMA. More echoed, analogue motifs dart from left to right, confirming with strong conviction that our chaps from Paris put the Dub in Indubitably Fantastic.

Ransom Note Records are over the moon to welcome illustrious French Electronic duo Froid Dub to the fold for the debut 12” vinyl release with us, Tears Maker Chant. Head honchos of the wonderful Delodio label, Stéphane and François, mark the 50th release for R$N Recs, and this is without a shadow of a doubt an incredibly special one for us. So, sit back and ready yourself for some inimitable Froid Dub cuts; laid back but pounding, graceful yet aggressive but above all, thoroughly danceable.

Opening proceedings is the Acid tinged Just One, a masterclass in making people dance at under 80bpm. Achingly gorgeous polysynth chords rain down, hovering like a film overhead the saturated 303 line that wobbles along in the low end. First single On The Nose enters next, with a delightfully soft, round bass that feels like bouncing around a padded room. Inside a Zorb. On MDMA. More echoed, analogue motifs dart from left to right, confirming with strong conviction that our chaps from Paris put the Dub in Indubitably Fantastic.

Digital Pond closes side A of the 12”, a low slung, nonchalant piece of mood music. Idiosyncratically “French” , brittle chords piece the sound stage, evoking past Italo Disco spaces, but remaining conscientiously chug-dubbed out. Second single Control (Special Mix) opens side B… with a capital B. For Banger. Another Space Echo heavy workout in the lower frequencies of the audio spectrum, this is testament to the old adage that less is often, a hell of a lot more (to paraphrase).

The titular Tears Maker glides into view next, with its frantic 808 patterns and spacey melodica, setting the scene for the majesty to follow. This epically proportioned tune is probably going to be a little passe come the end of summer, because it’s going to be played at festivals the world over relentlessly. Be warned! Finally Terri’s Dub brings matters to a close, with its angular, stands and woozy vocals, we’re given the space and tie to contemplate what has just happened to us on two mere sides of vinyl.

PREMIERE: U-T - A January Day To Remember [Kontrapunkt]

'Pixel Rain' marks the debut release from Moscow-based musician Dima Safronov, originally hailing from Bryansk. Dima brings fourteen years of DJ experience on his shoulders, he has organized numerous parties, and he's also curator of 5/8 Radio, a music station he founded eight years ago.

'Pixel Rain' doesn't aim to be conceptual, but rather captures the mood of a specific moment, capable of sending listeners drifting along waves of memory. Four compositions feel like brief flashes of emotional impulses, joined together to form a unified whole. Two original tracks (including the title track, created in collaboration with Safronov’s close friend robsn), seamlessly flow into two dance-oriented remixes, each reflecting and reinterpreting the mood of their originals.

The opening track - 'Pixel Rain' immediately immerses the listener in a world of rich and soft digital textures, delicate rhythms, and subtle sonic architecture. The music is both anxious and pure, like raindrops trickling down an evening windowpane. The second track - 'Shinichi Atobe, I am Your Son' is imbued with a dense, sun-drenched melancholy that unfolds gradually and unhurriedly, through an elegant counterpoint between a deep dub-inflected bassline and a ghostly, mist-like melody in the upper register.

The second half of the release shifts the emotional landscape into a dance music setting.
robsn transforms the pensive soundscape of 'Shinichi Atobe, I am Your Son' into an airy, self-assured anthem, one that’s easy to imagine echoing through the early hours of a large open-air rave. The final remix by Dima Studitsky darkens the overall palette, making the rhythm more insistent and imbuing the music with a distinct nighttime energy.

'Pixel Rain' is a story told in the language of electronic music, crafted with attention and love for fleeting emotional states that are never meant to return.

The album is released by Elephant Gait Music, a Spanish label based in Gran Canaria that specializes in visionary electronic music resistant to easy genre classification.

Being long time fans of the late Andrew Weatherall just like us here at MT, Full Circle approached a 2nd remix project to Die Orangen with a new angle, an hommage to A.W. 
The result is a dirty dubby banger of a remix to Die Orangen's KRAUTBACK track out of their sophomore LP Zwei Orangen out in 2019 on Malka Tuti.
