Press Info:
Denise Rabe has quickly attracted attention with her distinctive approach to techno: powerful percussive force, detailed sound design, and slowly modulating compositions crafted to induce dancefloor hypnosis. Following acclaimed releases on Arts Collective, Stroboscopic Artefacts, and her own Rabe label, Denise joins Blacklabel Distillery with a new 12” that digs deep into the hypnotic dimensions of her sound. “Brilliance” is a shimmering monolith, serpentine sounds woven through head-nodding beats. “Outta Body” delivers on its promise of transcendence with slowly evolving drones unfolding over a driving rhythm. Perc brings things back down to earth with a relentless remix that conjures images of malfunctioning, mutating machinery, while Sverca freezes “Brilliance” into suspended animation, captivating with just a few layers of sound. The digital tracks highlight Rabe’s exceptional compositional skills, exploring subtly shifting alien soundscapes on “Spacetrouble” and mesmerizing with the massive cosmic sounds of “Fully In”.

out now: Wrangler – Rhizomatic (Remixes) [Bella Union]

Artist:
Wrangler

Title:
Rhizomatic (Remixes)

Label:
Bella Union

Cat#:
BELLA1106DIG

Release Date:
31st July 2020

Format:
digital

Tracklist:
01.
Rhizomatic
(Deadendz Remix)

02.
Rhizomatic
(Microcorps Mutant Mix IV)

Press Info:
Wrangler – aka Stephen Mallinder, Benge and Phil Winter – have shared two new remixes. The two-track release sees Deadenz and MICROCORPS give the remix treatment to ‘Rhizomatic’, taken from their latest album, A Situation, out now on Bella Union.

Tech house DJ Terry Francis and Wrangler’s Phil Winter combine forces on the Deadenz mix, while MICROCORPS is the work of Alexander Tucker who says of the remix, “I’ve been really loving Wrangler’s live shows for the past few years, there’s a great balance of intricate structure alongside these sonic mutant surges. I wanted to make a mix that brings that mutant side to the fore by sampling and re-processing elements of the track using hardware outside of the computer. I also recorded some parts onto tape machines to get degraded and warped textures.”

When Wrangler first formed, they had a very simple modus operandi. The clue was in their name. Ben ‘Benge’ Edwards (The Maths), Stephen ‘Mal’ Mallinder (Cabaret Voltaire) and Phil Winter (Tunng) would get together with a very select kit list of careworn analogue synthesisers and vintage digital sequencers. Their task? To wrangle new music from the ancient equipment. These self-imposed restrictions helped produced two classic long players: LA Spark (2014) and White Glue (2016).

However, the times have changed and so have Wrangler so the trio have thrown everything into their third album and the result – A Situation – is simultaneously their bleakest and funkiest release to date.

This collection of warm, reverberant, amped up tracks, that land somewhere between future music, synth pop, industrial dance, classic techno and rigid electro, captures the ambiguities of the group perfectly. Just as they use the ageing outmoded equipment that other people once chose to throw away in order to make tomorrow’s music, they are the paranoid group who (just about) dare to hope that things still might turn out OK. They cast a doleful eye across the hellscape of 2020 and state, if the end is truly nigh, then it’s never been more important to celebrate the little time we have left. And if a revolution to save ourselves is possible then we’re all in need of a revolutionary party, with a revolutionary soundtrack to match.

Artist:
New Frames

Title:
Schweres Wasser

Label:
HANDS

Cat#:
HANDSV078

Release Date:
13th April 2019

Format:
vinyl & digital

Tracklist:
01.
Mumiae

02.
The Last Ones

03.
Grond

04.
Farewell Legacy
(Ontal Remix)

Press Info:
Time for New Frames, time for their latest 12”: Mathis Mootz and David Frisch come up with four tracks that, again, defy categorization and chronological classification. From the rave nostalgia of their Continuum Series project to the neo-industrial sound of The Panacea, New Frames tackle a broader scope: “Mumiae” opens the EP with a bang, a functional track with a metallic drive, followed by the strongly EBM-tinged “The Last Ones” with its meaty sequence and vocal sample hook. “Grond” is a cutting edge industrial techno masterpiece with evil washes of noise and a menacing sequence of bleeps, and label mates ONTAL contribute a hard-hitting remix from the duos 2017 “Resistance through Rituals” debut album. Variation and steady onset, the requirements of an EP met in full!
