After his appearance on Frigio Allstars Vol 3, Scannoir (also half member of the amazing GOTT project) delivers his first full length EP with "Through My Silence".

Emotive and raw, the style pursued blurs the lines between synth wave, EBM and techno. "Industrial Technology" opens with a driving and steadily increasing buildup that finds its peak with a wink in the late eighties New Beat/Techno era. Followed by "Get Ready (but sorry)" which entertains with powerful drums, thick strings and rumbling chords while samples and distant lyrics recite the coming of change. The breadth of Scannoir’s style is truly remarkable, with this amazing 5 track EP being emblematic of his range. The flip takes a different direction, the lovelorn lament of “Through My Silence” melts sweetened synth lines with cold pain-streaked words before blooming into a brooding burner. A shaky alliance between samples and vocals runs through the rhythmic assault and violent undertones of “Why Old News.” The closure comes with the marching melancholy of “Alles Wird Gut”, a dark and moody end to this debut EP.

Head hazy, eyes blurred; even the sliver of light creeping through the curtain feels invasive, total darkness is needed. Memories? What memories? Any recollection of the evening before had been lost in a smog of shame and regret, at least for now. The fragments would slowly become clearer as Sunday unravelled, they'd unveil themselves whether invited to or not; a story being pieced back together chapter by chapter, though some parts would be better left to the imagination...

French artist Cuften has been flying the flag for a new generation of rave producers in the country over the last five years. Connecting the dots between IDM, hardcore, techno and electro, his analog sound pays homage to the 90s heyday, when these sounds reigned supreme, whilst keeping his eyes firmly on the future. With EPs for Tripalium, Minimum Syndicat and rave veteran Marc Acardipane's Planet Phuture under his belt, he now makes his mark on Astropolis Records with Animal Suicide, a five-track release packed with his trademark blend of future-facing old school techno, that comes backed by remixes from Legowelt and Cate Hortl.

PREMIERE: Cuften - No More Sunday Regrets (Cate Hortl Remix) [Astropolis]

Tonylight, a genuine master of the 8bit music scene, takes the advantage of his long-standing experience in the sound machines’ design and production within LEP (“Laboratorio Elettronico Popolare”), to constantly change his set-up to shape new tracks, always maintaining a characteristic pure analogue and instinctive approach in all his compositions. “Lumanoide” sounds raw, acid and old-school, with unsettling dynamics and motorik rhythms. This latest album by Tonylight can be viewed as a fully-matured version of the previously produced albums that were almost entirely based on the use of Gameboy and Nanoloop. The creative verve is the same, but the sounds are full-bodied, deep, intense, and obtained by exploiting a recently produced Danish groove-box to its limits. Lumanoide is inspired by the unforgettable nights in the clubs of the 90s, and all tracks are 120 bpm, in homage to the Marco Dionigi's "slow motion" djsets. The name of the album comes from "Lumanoise", one of the synths produced by LEP, of which Tonylight is one of the founders.

Premiere: Sepehr - Body Mechanics

Whilst the world is on pause, we thought it be a good idea to showcase some works that have been moving us months before the lockdown kicked in. We wanted to share and replicate the same amount of electric vibrational emotions it initially had on us upon first listening to them, so the best way we could describe that feeling was by calling this VA series, Currents I. In this compilation theres some faces you know from the Power Station roster intersected with some soon to be Power Station release inductees, once this mess clears up obviously. 

Anyways we hope you enjoy these as we have been waiting to share them for some time. Available now on bandcamp.

Stay safe

VA - Currents I [PSC001]

Not for the first time, we can present a lovely and special premiere from Scannoir (Uncanny Valley, Oràculo, Les Disques De La Mort and also on our own Layers Series).

After he caused quite a lot of attention with his releases as "*GOTT*" (together with Sneaker), he now joins the Frigio Family. The track "De Panaesher", a lovely Synth-Wave track, fits perfectly into the current time, in which we like to remember the past...

Frigio Allstars 3 comes from the murky underbelly of electronics, where the nights are long and the days are short. Ashen tones pricked with lighter shades, all smeared with attitude in this collection of underground tracks made for the underground.

Daniel Holt returns for this new instalment in the Allstars series. Diving deep into the darkness, Holt resurfaces with the nine minute industrial throb of “Vaccuous Transient.” A stomping beat pierces sci-fi score synthlines in a track brimming with menace. Staying in the US, Grey people debuts on Frigio with the grime smeared jack of “Bruxism.” The flip is all first timers to the Madrid label with Scannoir offering “De Panaesher.” Sitting somewhere between synth lament and uplifting wave, this track is a true modern classic from a member of the GOTT camp. Madrid’s very own Negocius man follows with “101 Wars” a winding worming work of glazed electronics to kill any dance floor and the amazing finale, “The Smile Of The Body” coming care of Bari’s talent based in Berlin under the moniker of Sons Of Traders.

Screeching sirens had woken her in the middle of the night, and now she sat perched at the window peering nosily out of her curtains. The street below had been cordoned off with thick tape and a white tent had been set up a little further down the path. She couldn't make out exactly what was going on amongst the sea of uniformed men and haze of blue and red flashing lights, but she knew it wasn't good. It wasn't good at all.

Athens-based producer Anatolian Weapons has been churning out the releases thick and fast, the next of which lands on Milanese imprint Marguerite Records. Marking the 9th release on the label, following a series of V/A releases and an instalment from Raw Ambassador and Antonio, the three originals on Blood On The Pavement are inspired by an imagined, distorted crime scene. Navigating industrial and EBM, from a trippy 303 workout to a stripped down version, backed up on the flip by two reworks from Nashville artist Daniel Holt.
