DJ mix CDs and greatest hits comps tend to be mutually exclusive for a reason. The former is generally intended as a snapshot or, more ambitiously, a portrait; the latter intends to put a single career (or scene, or moment) into...
Continuing her string of quality releases Nicole makes her debut on the fantastic Monique Musique imprint this month with her latest single Cacahuetes. On the dark techy tip, the EP contains new cuts Cacahuetes and Mi Cabeza,...
Donato Dozzy only plays deep, hypnotic techno that favors a slower tempo. (Indeed, the only time I've ever seen him DJ in person, the BPM never fell below 130.) But it's clear that the Italian producer has a deep, abiding love...
Somehow it makes sense on Warp, which has shifted over the past few years to encompass a plethora of sounds from the indie rock world. Church's best songs utilize the simple, deep grooves of a band like Menomena, a group that...

Youri Donatz is back to add another track to what is fast becoming a highly reputable and recognisable body of work for this young artist. Well on the way to establishing a reputation as one of the scenes go-to guys forawesome techhouse remixes and an upcoming EP on DJ PP his label Punta del Esta, this talented DJ and producer is a firm favourite on the club scene.As well as bringing his flair and style to many remixes and collaborating with a number of influential artists, his own personal collection is rapidly gaining traction. His new track is aptly named Amadeus. Probably most famous for being Mozarts middle name, Amadeus means Love of...
Taken from their successful album "Around The World", the guys from Moonbeam present their brand new single "Song For A Girl" released on Black Hole Recordings.Featuring the haunting voice from Blackfeel Wite, "Song For A Girl" is a huge synthetic vocal trancer. Those who pay close attention to the original album version will hear not only Depeche Mode influences but Moog sweeps that might as well have been played by French Moog pioneer Jean Jacques Perrey. The subtly played theme is supported by magnificent synths with an almost tornado style, swirling sound. The changes between the verses and chorus are underlined by a banging snare drum,...
Full admission: The first few times I played "Blackout" it was at 33rpm, not its intended 45. But you know what? I thought it sounded great. The confusion can be attributed to two things. First, my own stupidity. And second, Dave Huismans' sheer multiplicity of late. It's unclear whether Huismans wishes this inaugural 12-inch on his low-key Blackout imprint to be thought of as 2562, A Made Up Sound or neither; although you have to ask yourself, with the surfacing of this latest sterling release, does it actually matter? A-side "Blackout" stretches its synths out across a washboard, making for a granular, pitched-up feel that (I'm hoping)...
The influence of the "unremembered '80s" in music is considerable, and it's a force that finally seems to be invading even the insular confines of dance music. Hyetal is one of Bristol's brightest new talents, showing little regard for the goings-on around him and embellishing his productions to saturation point with vibrant colour. His first release in several months comes on the new Orca label, only the imprint's second—but they're tracks that would normally be reserved for the highest echelons of established labels. I get the same feeling from these tracks that I did from Joker's original run of singles—the sound of pure personality...
Anyone using cyclical metallic beats and ghostly vocals these days is bound to get the name Burial thrown at them. Most of the time, it's justified. But Burial wasn't the first to employ the aesthetic he popularized and he's not going to have the last word on it either, at least if producers like Svpreme Fiend have anything to say about the matter. Svpreme Fiend is a young producer out of New York snatched up by London's Local Action label, and he makes nocturnal 2-step that can't help but recall Burial. But the music here seems far more indebted to Burial's predecessors, the clean and snappy sound miles away from that producer's fog and...
TRG seems to have his finger in every pie these days, dripping with influences from dubstep, rave, UK funky and techno. Cosmin Nicolae's 2010 output has been trending progressively weirder and weirder, and it seemed like on his last release ("See Other People" for Rush Hour) that these oddball tendencies were threatening to overtake his groove. His first release for Untold's Hemlock label is his most overtly techno release yet, with the BPMs dipping below 130 and the sounds apparently inspired by Ostgut. This is still relatively new territory for Nicolae, which means he's not yet completely free from that awkward "transitional" stage. As...
