VA - Introspective

Ever since ø (phase)'s Mass EP from 2007, we have been keeping a steady eye on Token, the Belgian techno label which was formed by Kr!z. In the ever-growing swamp of over-produced and unimaginative techno, Token and it's producers have always stayed true to their own identity. Their sound is both forward-thinking and nostalgic, techno at it's purest, while reminding you of it's better days.

With people like Inigo Kennedy, ø, Go Hiyama and Xhin on board, you probably know what you're gonna get. But still, with every release you don't know exactly what you're gonna get. The label has it's trancey-side, reminiscing the earlier days of Warp and stuff, while having a really brutal side too..Where most tracks clock in at a 130BPM minimum. The way we like it.
Now, Kr!z has released a DJ mix on CD, called Introspective. It consists of 21 tracks, representing the best of the versatile Token sound. Proving that the label sounds more vital then ever, while showcasing his amazing DJ skills in the process.

Introspective has been released on the 17th of June and we highly suggest that you pick up on this if you haven't been introduced to the label or it's artists yet. This is already the stuff of legends! This is one of those labels that will determain the future sound of techno. No doubt about that.

VA - The Dominique Rocheteau EP

UK-Based label Rothmans is going to put out it's third release soon! Rothmans is a label that is based on the collectible football cards from the 70's. This time it's now-legendary striker Dominique Rocheteau who takes the homage.
First up on the A-side of this four-tracker is Coyote with a funky but tripped-out, acid-laden disco groove. Really nice work. Second track is a track by Aimes from New York and includes wonderful sound design that should work in any balearic set this summer.

Second side opens with a track by the brilliant Scott Fraser and that should say enough. Brilliant bassline on that one. But it's the closing track from Tilburg's experimental Drvg Cvltvre that really catches the attention.. Almost like an outcast, this track opens with a really, really dirty and bassline and shows no signs of improvement on the happier side. Filtered organs and tight distorted percussion makes the thing even more haunting than it already was. The devil is in the details..

Rothmans003 is due out first week of July on 180 grams vinyl and will hit all major records shops worldwide. We included a Soundcloud set with previews of the whole release. Keep a close eye on this one: strictly limited release and no digital!!

Spaziale - Porno Disco vol. 5

Finally, the wait is over! There's a brand new episode of Scott Hesselink aka Spaziale's Porno Disco!! Only 20 minutes into the mix, episode 5 already features some of the most exotic disco & funk sounds we've ever heard.
Scott Hesselink again proves to be a real crate digger with an excellent taste when it comes to amazing grooves and quality music.

Ladies and gentlemen, start your weekends with this one!!

Episode #018 - Emile Strunz

This week's guest is Emile Strunz. Emile Strunz is a producer from Newcastle, UK. He's had amazing releases on World Unknown and Porn Wax (which we featured in episode #002) and his latest 'North Sea Body Music EP' was released on Flight Recorder (which you might remember from episode #007). His music was heavily featured in Flemming Dalum's mix for deathmetaldiscoclub and now he's brought us this epic, epic mix, which is in memory of his mother Rhonda, who sadly passed away in April.
Although technically not a DJ, he's proven himself more than worthy with this megamix, going from Soundtracks to Industrial, to the more danceable stuff and back.

We hope you enjoy this mix and make sure you keep an eye on him because there is a new EP coming out on Ali Renault's VIVOD label soon and Emile also told us that there is going to be a follow-up to the amazing North Sea Body Music, also on Flight Recorder!
