Press Info:
Delsin is pleased to welcome a true pillar of the contemporary techno scene, Answer Code Request, for his first EP in six years.
As an integral part of the Ostgut Ton family since breaking through some 10 years ago, Patrick Gräser has shaped a patient but potentdiscography which embodies the hybridised nature of techno in the 21st Century. His distinctive style of melodically embellished, subtly fracturedbody music helps define the contemporary zeitgeist, but it also moves with enough emotional maturity to stand on its own terms as compelling,artist-led electronic music.
Arriving some four years after his second LP Gens, the Shattering EP opens in an especially exploratory mode as Gräser teases elements ofbreakbeat and ambient techno on the spellbinding ‘Resonate’. ‘Shattering’ finds a different palette through which to explore broken rhythms,leaning in on a heavyweight bassline injected with rave-wired distortion. There are more linear techno pulses to be found in the tunnellingpropulsion of ‘CRS-21’, but in the interests of contrast the EP closes with the sparkling refraction of ‘Sustaining Life’, a floor-ready masterclass inelectronica with teeth.

The Third Room’s day one Almedin Alibegovic alias VNNN. gives his debut on our imprint with a four track EP called “Give Me Some Attention”.
Sense one night at Mischanlage. A dark main theme, beginning with slower ambient-like trap beats, going into clean but cultrate techno, closing the climax with a morning sound track. Reflecting the atmosphere of a whole night of choreomania in the Ruhr Area, this EP has a deep and timeless mood in which you want to get lost for a night or even longer.
Press Info:
After releasing their critically acclaimed debut single ‘Stillstand’ on Local Suicide’s label Iptamenos Discos the Austrian duo Wiener Planquadrat are returning with their new ‘Dschungel’ EP which includes remixes by legendary electro-punk producer T.Raumschmiere, London-based infamous artist Birds and the uprising disco producer Tech Support.
The title track ‘Im Dschungel’ is a feel-good disco-pop / indie dance tune that speaks about the urban jungle of Vienna. The exuberant combination of arpeggio distortions, sizzling synths keys and jolly vocals transport listeners right in the middle of bubbly and chaotic Viennese jungle. The B-side ‘AIV’ (short for Alles ist Viel) is a dark disco hymn composed of polyphonic plucked synths, classic 80s beat, and distorted arp brassy sounds, while the vocals evoke the wilderness of a tangled and jumbled mind. T.Raumschmiere, an artist of multiple facets ranging from punk techno to experimental ambient, maneuvers ‘Im Dschungel’ with abstract and minimalist tones. A steady remix with kick and bass at the forefront wrapped up with bright looping keys. Birds twists ‘Im Dschungel’ with an acid bassline, dark metallic strings, and adds mystical vocals showcasing her talent to merge multiple atmospheres into one track and always thrive for edginess and originality. ‘AIV’ is revisited by London-based Tech Support, who gives it an all-around bouncy and elegant groove, harmoniously matched with spacey effects, bright bells, and screechy synths. Wiener Planquadrat is formed by Maximilian Atteneder from Catastrophe & Cure and Michael Weiler, a former member of Luv Shack’s Burning Tears. Their work is a union of their two musical background: a mixture of indie, dark disco, and a decent portion of French electro, reminiscing the times they first met. In 2021, they released their critically acclaimed debut single “Stillstand”, which went up onto the top 10 tracks of Austria’s most important youth radio station FM4, was highlighted as track of the day by Byte FM, received glowing reviews on the blogosphere and was described as the “perfect feel-good- disco-track” by German leading electronic print magazine FAZE, while receiving support by DJs such as Joris Voorn, John Digweed, Phunkadelica, Sean Johnston & Damon Jee among others. The ‘Dschungel’ EP is an electrifying collection of tracks showcasing each artists’ distinctive style and colourful palette of musical artistry. It will be released on a strictly limited clear Dubplate 12” and made available digitally on all platforms on April 22nd, 2022.
