Press Info:
Luke Slater & Dubfire team up for the first time with ‘The Dissent’ EP on Mote-Evolver

‘The Dissent’ by Luke Slater & Dubfire opens up with hypnotic, droning sequences and bubbling atmospheres, looming synthlines firmly backed by relentless organic rhythm. In ‘The Sonic Assassin’ sizzling, skittering shaker-hat combos sneak up while its distorted signals increase in intensity, culminating into a high-intensity finish. ‘The Drama’ then features wonky vocals and gorgeous psychedelic soundscapes, closing out this quality, tripped-out package with dancefloor energy found both late at night and the early mornings.

After making his debut on Mote-Evolver via label boss Luke Slater’s ‘Rip The Cut’ remix package, SCI+TEC founder Dubfire now teams up with the fellow techno lynchpin for ‘The Dissent’ EP. Rolling and dubby, this collaborative three-tracker follows up Slater and Ø [Phase]’s recent Roog Unit release on the label and continues with boundless layers of interwoven, mind-warping techno sounds key to an imprint housing scene legends such as Rene Wise, Steve Rachmad, The Lady Machine and many more.

Press Info:
Luke Slater and Ashley Burchett return as Roog Unit for new EP on Mote-Evolver.

Following a string of collaborative EPs throughout the years, Mote-Evolver boss Luke Slater and Ashley Burchett (Ø [Phase]) return under Roog Unit to Slater’s imprint, delivering another set of mind-bending, boundary-pushing techno tracks tried and tested in their back to back sets under the alias.

Leading the release, ‘Bash Box’ brings a high-energy stomper peppered with menacing kicks and siren-esque leads, coming in at a blistering 156bpm. ‘Don’t Let Go’ follows with tripped-out vocals and tweaked basslines making for a heads-down cut. On the flip, ‘Koox’ sees the duo reach for wonky, twinkling synths atop a fierce sizzling drum hook. ‘Sanity Regard’ takes the B2 spot, rounding out another stellar EP from two of techno’s most revered talents.

The releases arrives as part of Mote-Evolver’s new series of in-person artist collaborations, with each EP capturing the creative moment as it happens, with results aimed squarely at the dance floor. Each release has artwork combining one item from each artist, which means something to them, into one new image.

Press Info:
Planetary Assault Systems revisits ‘In From The Night’ with edits and a remix from Adam Beyer and Wehbba

Planetary Assault Systems is one of UK techno veteran Luke Slater’s most enduring aliases, a project focused on forward-thinking techno with maximum cerebral impact. ‘In From The Night’ came out in 1993 as part of the ‘Planetary Funk Vol 1 EP’ on Peacefrog and has remained an underground favourite since.

Here on his own Mote-Evolver label, Slater revisits the track with a fresh perspective across two edits and an interpretation from Drumcode’s Adam Beyer and celebrated Brazilian DJ/producer Webbha. The techno titans team up to deliver a remix with thunderous energy as tense synths patterns loop, evolve, and grow ever more edgy as the track unfolds throughout.

On the flip, the first ‘P.A.S. Edit’ is a potent touch-up that finds pounding drums overlaid with raw and textural synth patterns alongside occasional crashing claps and a rising sense of dark cosmic energy. The ‘P.A.S. Live Edit’ unfolds in broken patterns and reverberates with menace as more searing synth lines fire across the dance floor.
