Kri Podcast #16 - Caillou

Schrödinger’s Box welcome Catalonia’s Adrian Marth into the fold. The Iberian artist has been drawing crowds and turning heads with his analogue inspired productions and dancefloor inhibitions. This five tracker sees the Italo Moderni founder explore the glittering angles and brooding shadows of his machines. The punishing percussion and beaming laser lights of “Labyrinth Mind” give way to the tumbling drums and racing synthlines of the addictive “Sex Tonight.” The flip opens with the sleazy grandeur of “Beverly Hills”, looming melodies and retro flourishes combine in this operatic ode to the 1980s. Speaking of the 80s, the inspiration for the penultimate comes from a figure who symbolised the bombastic bravado of the era. “Divine on the Late Show 88” is a tribute to the Pink Flamingos legend, beats sparkle as her sequenced dresses and larger-than-life attitude screams into the present. Danny Wolfers takes the helm to close. Donning his familiar Legowelt moniker, the behemoth of all thing electronics delivers a saturated and spiralling rework of “Divine on the Late Show 88” to the close

We highly recommend Cat Gadget, who is part of the Grrrls DJ crew since 2018 in Graz, Austria. Her penchant for vinyl records, which she has been collecting since youth, was at some point the deciding factor for her to start DJing. Her vinyl only sets are strongly influenced by Synthwave, Electro, Italo Disco, EBM, Dark Wave and Electropop. Guest mix no. 94 is the perfect outcome of her influences. Check out her Intergalactic FM mix as well, if you like what you hear!

Blank Wave Guest Mix 094: Cat Gadget

Hailing from Highlands of Scotland and now based in the Lowlands of The Netherlands, swærm has carved out a distinctive niche through his productions, blending the dark, gritty tones of industrial with the pulsating energy of body music.

In his sets he delivers a raw and unrelenting sound, channeling influences from the mechanical drive of early EBM and industrial, the angular aggression of post-punk, and the moody atmospheres of wave, transporting listeners into an immersive and brooding landscape.

With his own imprint N.I.M [Northern Industrial Movement] he keeps the focus on the darker and harsher side of electronic music through the in-house label and podcast series.

Cie embarks on a new sonic expedition with "Adventures II", the successor to the original journey, continuing the musical quest with great intensity and energy.
As the music begins, “Reichenstein” rises on the horizon like a majestic mountain peak, growing ever more imposing as you draw closer. Upon arrival, the towering presence of the castle welcomes you with its raw power. The beat pulses like a force of nature, its multi-layered rhythms and vibrant sounds pulling every dance enthusiast into its depths, much like an adventurer scaling the heights of the mountain itself.
The journey continues through the mystic halls of the castle, leading to "Der Turm". Here, hypnotic synths scale the tower's heights, while deep pulsating basses push against every wall. From there, the mountain “Stenzelberg” comes into view, casting its groovy shadows ahead as the next stop on the adventure. Upon reaching the summit, you are immediately drawn into the mountain’s spell by the power of its percussive sounds. But the journey doesn't end there - deep within the winding gorges, Mar io awaits, leading you through hidden corners and secret paths of the mountain with his powerful remix, finally releasing the soul of the mountain. 
Four electrifying tracks - perfect companions for any club adventure - are ready to carry you on your own journey. Vinyl only.

Mikron 
Foresight EP 
Release date : 9th of January 2017 
Release/catalogue number: ZONE 28 
Format : Vinyl + Digital

Tracklist 
1. Ulterior 
2. Vanguard 
3. Foresight 
4. Ulterior (The Exaltics remix)

Art direction by Zone Studio

The next release on Zone is another mighty one, this time from electro and techno duo Mikron with a great remix from The Exaltics. 
Mikron is a no nonsense duo who have already put out a full length this year in the form of “Warning Score” on Central Processing Unit. As well as that cohesive opus, they have credits on this label dating back to 2012 and have the sort of high impact, toughened style that always makes a mark. 
The brilliantly gurgling and steely “Ulterior” kicks things off with sheet metal hits, slithering bass and buffed-up synth sounds that make you jerk your body. It’s direct stuff for the dancefloor, and so is “Vanguard”. Though less quick and in your face than the opening track, it still has the sort of crisp groove that has real impact. A distant cosmos of howling winds and thundering rumbles add weight to the whole thing and really finishes it in style. 
‘Foresight’ is even more haunting and spooky. Chilly metal pads spiral in the background, lurching drums and hits bring the groove and the mood overall is truly unsettling. It’s devastating stuff that gets completed with Clone and Shipwrec artist The Exaltics’ take on “Ulterior”. The German has fun layering in Drexcyia style, ripped-up synths and crisp hits. It’s macho and post apocalyptic and is as inviting as it is austere. 
All four cuts here are standout electro offerings from one of the best duos in the game. This latest Zone release will be coming once again on a limited 12” single, featuring artwork from prominent artist Daisuke Yokota with the vinyl available via Emile Distribution.K

Release date : 6/09/2017
Release/catalogue number: ZONE 31
Format : Vinyl + Digital

Tracklist:
1. Mental Ease
2. VHS Romance
3. A Pure Vision
4. Plastic Skin

Zone look to Irish artist and esteemed electro producer DeFeKT aka Matthew Flanagan for their next EP.
Over the years this artist has become synonymous with proper techno and electro. His hardware based sound has won him fans all over the world and chief amongst those records is the 2010 mini album he released and which got hammered by legends like Dave Clarke. Working on Combat Recordings, Signal Code and Electronic Explorations amongst others, his rugged drum sounds and modular synth style is textured and real and for that reason always stands out.
It is the slick and slippery electro acrobatics of ‘Mental Ease’ that gets us going. With rasping basslines, slapping hits and drums and a lively groove, this one is a restless and relentless jam for the peak of the night. Up next is ‘VHS Romance’ which takes a more introspective path with zoned out pads and a burrowing lead synth line that carries you into the night amongst warm chords.
Then comes ‘A Pure Vision’, which is a deep and elastic number with flashes of synths and crisp, cold hits contrasting with each other in alluring ways. The monstrous bass keeps things nice and physical as well as it being emotionally touching. Lastly, ’Plastic Skin’ comes on strong with a manic lead line racing along at a hundred miles an hour. It is constantly changing shape and never lets up, ending the EP in a truly arresting place.
This is proper electro from one of the best in the game right now.
