Arno Kamaz
Specifically, some minimal techno from this parisian DJ, Arno Kamaz. Arno is said to be influenced by Booka Shade and the like in the techno-minimal scene.
MVSEVM
They may not be the godfathers of techno yet, but these Finnish oldboys are on their way, for sure. There’s no need to please anyone, they’ve gone past caring what’s hip these days. Meet MVSEVM, currently on Discobelle Records. What they’re doing is recycling yesterday’s techno with an ever so slight injection of gypsy flavor,...
Femme En Fourrure
Persuasion. In the form of house music. The divine torture of minimalism – devoid of excess and yet so refined and full. Tease. In the form of lyrics dripping with sex. We are told not to take it seriously, but we do. Yes, we do. Dance music that makes you want to fuck. What Femme...
Kinne
My good mate Kinne‘s just did a sweet ultra-minitech track. This guy’s heavily influenced by Brodinski. What’s minitech? Just some snazzy term I coined for ultra minimal techno / electro stuff like this. Simple tribal beat and boomin’ bass. Don’t get too caught up with the frills and trimmings. Appreciate the good stuff in its...
Arsenal (Gui Borrato Remix)
Pretty excited about this one. Arsenal is the synthpop group comprising of Hendrik Willemyns and John Roan from Belgium. While wandering further up north in Finland completely drunk, it somehow inspired them to create this beautiful new album, Lotuk. Estupendo is the first track off the album released as a single ep on Playout Music....
Chloe
First heard of Chloe about 2 years ago from her track, I Hate Dancing. It’s a very strange electronic “dance” track. But then that’s what Chloe has been known for: going against the flow, anti-genre, complexed. This was the girl who abandoned law school to dj. Eclectic is too mainstream. One thing is certain in...
Jubilee – Dopamine
Some deep techno flavors goin on here tonight, people. Jubilee‘s debut single, Dopamine marks his signing to Hidden Recordings. The single’s gonna hit stores in May 10th in Digital format. Noah Pred‘s done an even more twisted dark edit to this already sinister tune. Buy Jubilee on Beatport here.
Thomas Devreese
Our good friend, Thomas Devreese aka Kinne has just done this sweet new remix of Ellen Allien and Apparat‘s track, Jet. Mellow, minimal and Moderat-esque.
Chris Liven (Biancardi Remix)
If there is one thing I admire about Biancardi, its his persistence, determination and hard work. This guy is constantly churning out new stuff and while some of his stuff may not be easy to get into, this new techno remix that he has emailed the blog a few weeks back is by far one...
My Favorite Robot, Vandermeer
My Favorite Robot are Jared Simms and Voytek Korab and if they aint makin techno together, they’re out there working on their own record label of the same name, helping other DJs push their music out. Now that My Favorite Robot Records has turned 1, they’ve done this compilation album featuring the 10 best tracks...
Edu K
Baile Funk legend, Edu K done released an EP with the people at Scattermusic just before Christmas. It’s a mega 7 track biggie with plenty of remixes to keep you goin. Ja, Mann! sees the Brazillian doing his signature percussion heavy funk carioca in a somewhat minimal style and Jumpin n Pumpin‘s (once produced under...
Anton Zap
A few months back I was engrossed in the sudden enthusiasm for minimal with the likes of Renaissance Man, Vincent Manganaro etc. Cant help wondering where was the nice and slow, soulful sounds of Anton Zap then? This is real deep house coming out from the belly of Russia and to some, deep house is...
