    Brux Trax is Ventolin’s debut on the ghetto-esque Planetaria label, coming with a six-track EP highly influenced by the fusion of techno and trance together.
    The entry ‘Big Bank’ is a steady four-four banger with catchy but deep vocals, and acidic synth rampaging throughout. ‘Drop Another’ comes in a different outfit, and the intro suggests powerful sound next.

    10 April 2022

    For Those Who Know is the latest project to come out of the enigmatic DJ PlayStation label play labs, featuring six slices of unabridged electro and techno and distinctive acid-trance underpinnings.
    Nostalgia is very much a leaned-into concept. It’s manifested, mutilated and even matured over the past decade or so. Despite its memetic infancy, we have seen the aesthetics of nostalgia, both visually and sonically, become more realised and fleshed-out over recent years.

    14 March 2022

    Jonas Kopp is Argentinian born and Spanish based producer and DJ of techno, first debuting on Tresor and further finding his work on other acclaimed labels such as Semantica and Axis. His appearance on Falling Apart surprised me positively – as the Frankfurt based vinyl label has some of the best hard techno artists from the new wave of producers. And Jonas’s work has been hypnotic and dubby from the start, mashed with strong accented drum lines which separated him from the hypnotic herd, but Falling Apart?

  • Zomby ‎– Where Were U In ’92?

    alternative-electronics reviews

    12 March 2022

    I discovered Zomby through his releases on Hyperdub, and his catalogue of music threw me off: this guy was all over the place with ‘badboi’ riddims, dub and rave fused together so well, that he easily takes one of the top places of artists which influenced me and my music taste as I continued forward.
