Silent Servant from Sandwell District on call; and a Ventress.
No-nonsense, text-book Chicago House revivalism.’
Sparse beat tracks, 80s synth stabs and 727 latin percussion, expertly done to a crisp.
Ace.
A magnificently malevolent two-hander.
The Ekman is a furiously maxed-out piledriver; the Vereker is more Thing than machine, massive and roiling, scorpion-tailed and owl-eyed. The pulverising besiegement; the gory carnage.
Proper warehouse bangers, with a vengeance.
Massive bounce to the ounce on the A-side, guaranteed to boing a dancefloor into a vibrational mess.
Four honed earhole sluicers, on the flip.
The Basic Channel maestro takes on Konono. So brawling and bad-minded, dense and intense, and musically expert, it amounts to a ritual humiliation of the genre Dub Techno.
A re-rub of classic Digital Mystikz to celebrate Ancient Monarchy’s fifth release already, laced with oblique, Autechre-style melodiousness, and bass-bin armageddon. Next up, Sweet Sixteen is psychedelic techno-not-techno for early-morning dancefloors, complete with a sleazy EBM/New Beat dub by DJ October.
Classic, rampers, dread, Berlin techno; Basic Channel style.
Judge No Sympathy in session.
All four Mohems so far… scorchers.
Swingeing dubwise techno. Recess is sixteen minutes long.
Terrific; hotly recommended.
The Chain Reaction classic.
Two half-tempo IDM dubs; their signature FV transitoriness consolidated by two heavy remixes.
Valentino Mora carves out peak-time techno weaponry; Notte Infinita turns in a high-tech, sub-heavy roller. Woofers gonna woof.
Beau Wanzer and Shawn O’Sullivan.
Geo Rip is John Jones (Dope Body, Nerftoss) with Aaron Leitko and Mike Petillo (Protect-U), making its vinyl debut. Broken samples and electronics improvised live to tape.
An auspicious, thrilling, varied first outing — daredevil, visceral, and fresh — in customarily gorgeous TTT livery, with top-notch sound.
