And for those who are not familiar with the Amsterdam club yet, there's an interesting Slices feature by Electronic Beats about the temporary club and the people involved:

Episode #021 - De Dupe

Our next guest is Otto Kraanen, better known as De Dupe, also known as the mastermind behind Bordello A Parigi (BAP), a Dutch label that we are really, really fond of. Through BAP, Otto has released some very interesting Italo/Synth Pop. He's been running the label since 2011 and they've just released their tenth anniversary single, a release by Mark Du Mosch and Marlijn van de Kerkhof. Arguably it's best single yet and as a package, a charming addition to the already stunning visual style of Bordello.
As a DJ, De Dupe is known as one of the more applauded DJ's to be found along the Dutch westcoast in recent years. Whenever this guy pops up behind the decks, you're in for a treat. You never know what he's packed his bags with and we'd strongly advise you to visit one of his gigs anytime soon.. Whether it's Italo, funk, electro, house, synth pop or US Freestyle, this man sports an exquisite and exotic taste in music. A great addition to the newer generation of promising Dutch acts.
Bordello A Parigi will release it's next three singles in September 2013, one by Heinrich Dressel, one by Marc Fruttero ft. Polymnia and they also have a Italo reissue coming out in conjuction with the great Moustache Records. Keep your eyes on that.

As a DJ, De Dupe will be playing gigs along the westcoast this summer and will be doing a mini-tour through Europe in September. Info on Bordello A Parigi and dates for De Dupe sets can be found on the links below. Enjoy!!!

For now, we hope you enjoy this exclusive eclectic mix for Deathmetaldiscoclub!

VA - BLPGRN004

The next single in Bleep's Green series is a split single 12" inch by Marcel Dettmann and Lucy. While Lucy is delivering another abstract techno-stomper, Marcel delivers a more straight-forward techno track with that quintessential Dettmann-sound. Both tracks are characteristic for their individual trademarks and promise to be big hits again.

BLPGRN004 will be out in the first week of August and can be ordered from now on. Act quick, limited to 500 copy's only!!

KSTS - Sometimes More

Athens-based Lower Parts label has released it's third vinyl EP, a debut single by KSTS, featuring five uncompromising, acid-drenched techno/house jams. Expect proper, raw warehouse cuts with that typical 90's flavour. All tracks written by Konstantinos Mpardis except for B1, which is a collaboration with Miltiades. A2 and B2 definetly our favourites!

The Sometimes More EP was released on the 4th of July 2013 and is limited to 200 transparent vinyl. Samples below!

Episode #020 - Andrew Weatherall

This week's guest is Andrew Weatherall. A HUGE influence to all of us. Andrew has been in the business for over twenty years now and has been one of the leading figures in the electronic music scene. From acid to post punk, from techno to disco, this guy has seen it all. We're proud to have him on our show.
As a musician, producer and remixer Andrew has been famed for his work with The Sabres of Paradise and it's accompanying label. He was also the mastermind behind the Emissions Audio Output label but really caught the world's attention when he got signed to Warp Records with his Two Lone Swordsmen project, a project he did with Keith Tenniswood.
These days Andrew focuses on his newest project, The Asphodells, a project he does with his studio engineer Timothy J. Fairplay. They've just released an amazing debut album in the beginning of 2013. They've been remixed quite a few times now and we are happy to announce that they've got an remix album coming up on September 2nd.

For those who are in and around Amsterdam on July 26th, Andrew will be doing an all-nighter in De Verdieping @ Trouw Amsterdam, together with Sean Johnston under the A Love From Space moniker. Which we are really looking forward to. For tickets & event info go to: www.facebook.com/events/498330836902923/
In the meantime, enjoy his newest effort for deathmetaldiscoclub!!

Perseus Traxx - The Goddesses Of Inspiration

Newcastle's Flight Recorder has released it's sixth EP, a new single by Nigel Rogers' promising act Perseus Traxx. After FLR004 and FLR005, this conceptual 4-tracker continues to develop Flight Recorder's distinctive sound. This one sits somewhere between eerie electro and steady, pounding techno and it's a great addition to Nigel's amazing output. A2 is probably favourite.

Goddesses Of Inspiration was released on the 1st of July and is available worldwide on white vinyl. No digital, samples below!

Mild Peril - Alpha & Gamma Zone

Ali Renault's excellent Vivod label returns for its third release, this time from London-based synthmaster Chris Gilbert aka Mild Peril. Deep synthesiser action all the way on this one with sounds recalling the likes of Tangerine Dream and Jan Hammer, or even a classic lost Michael Mann film soundtrack score that could have been. That's not to say that the tracks are remotely retroistic. While wearing such classic influences on its sleeve the sound and production is straight from the future, and while both tracks are deep and dreamy affairs they pulsate and throb with a chugging dancefloor slo-mo groove that is undeniable.

Act quickly if you want to secure yourself a copy of this neon-soaked rain-beaten gem as copies are strictly limited! AVAILABLE NOW!

VA - Magic Wand vol. 7

UK-based label Magic Wand released it's seventh volume! Known for their fantastic disco edits, the Is It Balearic?-side label returns with four edits by Al Gobi, T2mm, Coyote and Last Waltz. Expect warm grooves, lots of sun and guitars on this one. Must have for the Balearic/Disco lovers. Magic indeed!

Magic Wand vol. 7 was distributed on the 17th of June and should be out in all major record shops worldwide now. But we must warn you.. Limited pressings, no re-press!

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.

Episode #019 - Rogér

The BAUHAUS resident and the Deathmetaldiscoclub founder sends his regards through this one-hour broadcast. Enjoy!
