Hard & Euphoric Techno

[Parousia EP - ABY 002]

Masa [ABY 002B1]

After a heavy bank holiday weekend, this week was always going to be a tough gig. Thankfully, we’ve got the perfect pick me up to help us to get through the next few days and looking forward to the weekend; hooking up with British 'all-rounder' Ejeca to exclusively share a fresh cut from his uber impressive Litmus EP.

Out now via his own Exploris imprint, the three track salvo showcases the Belfast producer's much vaunted versatility in the studio with each number on the EP seemingly designed to deliver the goods at a different time of night. Acidic, minimal and melodic in equal measure, it's one of the most impressive packages to land in our inbox in quite some time which made picking out which track we'd like to premiere all the more difficult. Eventually we plumped for the stripped back stylings of Ascension, which has had us thawing out those boogying muscles for the past few days.

Cleverly constructed and certain to rank as some of the freshest techno currently on the market, The Litmus EP suggests that Ejeca and Exploris' respective purple patches shows no sign of abating anytime soon. Enjoy.

It’s a rare moment in the life of Robert Hood’s M-Plant label when he hands over to another producer, but no surprise that he should pick Mark Broom for the next release, seeing as he’s previously been entrusted to provide edits of Hood’s tracks for the label’s 20th Anniversary celebrations (MPM19) and is currently tearing up dancefloors with his unreleased dubplate mix of Floorplan’s ‘Never Grow Old’.

The original version of ‘Stunned’ was released on Mark Broom & Dave Hill’s renowned Pure Plastic label back in 1997. The “97 Mix” featured here started as a live mix of the track, which Mark has now tweaked for maximum dancefloor devastation.

It’s accompanied on the flip side by a brand new composition of equally outstanding quality. Broom is in fine form on ‘Decay’ with his tight production skills delivering the kind of tough, raw Techno that sits perfectly on M-Plant.

E-Missions co-founder P.Leone returns to Radio Slave’s Rekids this September with ‘The My Lita Project’ backed with remixes from Mark Broom and Spencer Parker. 

Originally hailing from New York, P.Leone now resides in Berlin where he helms his E-Missions imprint with releases from himself and co-founder Caiazzo, exciting new artists like Rush Plus and Tred, not to mention remixes from Young Male, Spencer Parker and Lawrence Lee. Leone has also dropped a variety of releases on Rekids and Work Them Records, when not making regular appearances at clubs like Tresor and ://about blank. He now returns to Radio Slave’s respected imprint with ‘The My Lita Project’, following up his highly lauded ‘El Dorado’ EP that garnered support from Ben Sims, Jackmaster and Spencer Parker. 

‘My Lita’ kicks things off with classic synths, piercing strings and choppy vocals slices whilst robust drums march forward. Meanwhile, ‘Tight In The Pocket’ is more dark and menacing in comparison with its syncopated percussion, echoing claps and ethereal atmospherics. 

On the flip, Mark Broom drops two different remixes of ‘My Lita’; the first is a robust cut complete with disco elements like funky guitar licks and soulful voice, with the original’s stabs shining throughout, whilst the second remix takes a different route with its crunchy snares, moaning murmurs and fuzzy effects. Spencer Parker rounds things off with a remix of his own, chopping up the original’s vox whilst sultry pads join thumping kicks and quivering melodies.

@giordano12 - Heat Is Too Hot EP (Soma551d)

1. Heat Is Too Hot
2. Forename
3. Piangere

Italian born, Berlin based Giordano returns to Soma after the success of his first EP bringing his tough yet melancholic sound back to the label with the Heat Is Too Hot EP. 

Title track Heat Is Too Hot gets this moving quickly with huge, rumbling kick drums leading the charge before dischordant synths chill the atmosphere. Forename keeps things rough and ready with distorted percussive elements set again sweeping, panoramic atmospheres. Piangere closes out Giordano's latest release on a more melodic tip but still retains his standard tough drum workouts and soundscapes.
