Modus Operandi

The latest New Members, big tip!

Luca Lozano and Mr. Ho buckle up in the bucket seats and bring you a shiny new collaboration in the form of TWOCKERS. Club-ready and suped up Hard-House bangers with an injection of classic Rap lyrics that are sure to slay every dancefloor. This is not the sound of your favourite audiophile listening bar complete with gold plated Rotary mixer and wall of expensive unplayed vinyl, this is the sound of Southport's Manhattans nightclub in 1997. This is the sound of Vauxhall Corsa's driving down the M62 and Max Power compilation CDs with fresh hot rock burns in the casing.

Peter Gijselaers aka Break 3000, legendary producer in charge of the acclaimed Dirt Crew label. This first ascent brings us “Sacrifice” originally released on Meuse Muzique Records in 2002, powerful electro for peak hours at night. “Last Emotion” another bomb from peter's baul released between 1998 - 2002, same as “Believe”, special to end a long time sessions, here we will hear the true meaning of a vocoder. “Wide” classic electro bomb with a totally killer bass.

Overthink Records start the new repress series with this gem from Bryan Zentz as Bryan Never, originally released on Psychoactive Records in 1997. Dark Rooms EP is the perfect combination of the sound of electro, breaks & techno with a touch of ambient (in the track A3).

Expansion is the 7th EP on Belgium based Nightflight Records. On several levels it is a deft alignment of the label’s emotional techno aesthetic with Mihail Petrovski’s ability to deliver exquisitely poised music that drives deep into the mind and soul. The EP is a fine addition to his discography presented by the likes of Ferox, Common Dreams, Verdant Recordings & Distant Worlds over the last half decade. Petrovski possesses an incredible appreciation of the history of deep techno and evidently distils that into his own craft, whilst adeptly melding a sound that is undoubtably his own. This 4 tracker, all original compositions, manifests an uncluttered platform to fully appreciate those talents. Elegantly programmed percussion is balanced with sumptuous basslines and pads but leave wide open spaces for heart warming melodies on each of these tracks. Tsuris is arguably the most urgent on the record with a warm pressing kick. Omec switches around a superb elastic bassline. Dream Thief brings the tempo down but its innocent celestial melodies linger in the mind. Closing out with Circadian Rhythms, its broken percussion becomes the focus with a sophisticated nod to the finest of mid 90’s UK deep techno.
