Temasa Geç
(Deconstructed Mix by Jehra & Belin)

 

Press Info:
What’s a lockdown good for? If any, it allows for time to be invested into making music. For Jehra, his Temasa Geç EP was the result: an outburst, a release of compressed emotions from the last two years that had the whole globe in captivation.

Meet Jehra, one of Istanbul’s techno pioneers co-running RE:VOLT Kollektiv’s techno night and community inviting some of techno’s most interesting names. For his EP, producer friends close to him were invited to help on a track or remix: Sekulahr, EXIX, Daktik, and Belin.

Starting with Emperyel Köpekler made with Daktik, is setting the tone for the EP just right. A big moving bass line is tickled by percussion, progressing into a more filter-open synth churning forward.

Of big kicks no absence. Temasa Geç is the track to get you in the zone with a dirty and contagious pumping acid trick. 3rd from the pack is Ates, turning warehouses inside out like a freight train dancing on its rails. Cahil hits the right string just as good but goes deeper in the atmosphere with an acid touch.
Sekulahr’s remix showcases more refined action of Ates but introduces a cleverly programmed breakbeat with a tight groove. EXIX’s take on Temasa Geç is pure brutal melancholy with apocalypse loop hole vibes. Finishing off with Jehra remixing his own track together with Belin in his Deconstructed Mix of Temasa Geç; a breakbeat teardown of the original tucking you in with a blanket of serenity after having heard all of previous hammers.

User 7
(Chris Liebing Remix)

 

Press Info:
Chris Liebing and Drumcell remix Truncate on CLR this June.

With releases on the likes of Blueprint, Mote-Evolver, and his own lauded self-titled imprint, Truncate, aka David Flores, has become renowned for high quality, groove-based techno over the last ten years. Regularly playing at techno institutions such as Movement Festival, Awakenings, fabric, Berghain and many more, Truncate’s jacking DJ sets and productions have won him an army of electronic music fans.

Arriving on Chris Liebing’s CLR imprint, the LA-based artist delivers two high-octane originals, backed with remixes from label-boss Liebing and alumni Drumcell. Leading the release, ‘Intact’ sees rumbling kicks interlaced with textured percussion and trippy bleeps throughout the slick arrangement. ‘User 7’ follows with sharp, rocking drums peppered with spine-tingling synth hits and swung shakers.

Drumcell, fresh from his ‘Severance Check EP’ with Thomas Hoffknecht on CLR, brings beefed up low end and rattling claps for his take on ‘User 7’. Rounding out the release, Liebing himself steps up to remix ‘User 7’, introducing meaty acid lines, crunching hats, and dense FX for a heaving interpretation of the original.

out now: Alexander Kowalski – Reference EP [made of CONCRETE]

 

Artist:
Alexander Kowalski

 

Title:
Reference EP

 

Label:
made of CONCRETE

 

Cat#:
MOC033

 

Release Date:
27th May 2022

 

Format:
download & streaming

 

Tracklist:
01.
Reference

02.
Trawl JD

03.
Deep Dive 990

04.
Drifting Waves

 

Press Info:
Alexander Kowalski is back on ‘made of Concrete’! On his new EP, he refers the ambiance and smoked-out sounds of Dub techno on all four tracks, revealing his deep and quieter producer-self.

The ‘Reference’ EP doesn’t try to reinvent something good. Instead, it evolves and expands on its theme and chosen genre. It carries Kowalski’s musical energy like water: from the introductory ‘Reference’ with its classic dub delays and ambient sounds, to the unhurried ‘Trawl JD’. The blows and strings of technoid ‘Deep Dive 990’ add drama and dancefloor tension – until it all washes ashore with sound on the beatless finale ‘Drifting Waves’. With this release, Kowalski once again shows his solid skills and the needlessness of proving anything to anyone.
