A2.
Distorted Signal

B1.

B2.
Distance

 

Press Info:
Berlin based Alignment returns to Voxnox for what Italians are best known for: straight and forward-thinking Techno music. Floor orientation with heavy basslines, marching drums and an ever modulating Plug is therefore guaranteed on opening title „Infinity“.

Second in order is „Distorted Signal“, which specialises on a modulated rhythm with a plenty of soundscapes, best up severed for a sweaty Saturday night on a solid sound system, highlighting the many layers and styles on this production work.

The bigger, the better. „Alienist“ reminds and also focusses on the classic rave attitudes from the late 90s, with energising synths and an 808-inspired clap programming, ready to heat up the night no matter when and regardless where.

Closing this release is the fourth title „Distance“, showing another high-energy production building up epic acid-vibes with various atmospheres just to finally drop them several times par excellence.

out now: Adam X – Midnight Sun EP [Bite]

 

Artist:
Adam X

 

Title:
Midnight Sun EP

 

Label:
Bite

 

Cat#:
BITE09

 

Release Date:
04th September 2019

 

Format:
vinyl & digital

 

Tracklist:
A1.
Midnight Sun

A2.
The Dead Of Dawn

B1.
The Evacuation

 

Press Info:
For the next BITE release, techno legend Adam X makes a rare appearance outside his own seminal Sonic Groove Records with a new EP Midnight Sun, following up last year’s album Recon Mission. The NYC electronic music pioneer displays his singular approach to the dancefloor by combining old school, bass heavy grooves with forward-thinking cybernetic sound design. Throughout the EP, he lays out the concept of a dystopian timeline in which the Earth is knocked off orbit. Panic ensues as the earth moves closer towards the sun, annihilating all.

The title track starts off in classic Adam X form with driving bass, vocal snippets, and New York style percussive rolls, but it gradually develops into new territory with psychedelic synth sequences and atmospheres that portray impending doom. “The Dead of Dawn” drops off with broken rhythms and bleep sequences before blasting off with huge siren samples. On the flip side, “The Evacuation” would fit perfectly at home in one of Adam’s Storm Raves in NYC from the 90s. Huge, propulsive kicks perfectly meld with 16th note basslines balanced by dubbed out hihats and melodies. The production is always heavy but never static, dense and powerful but always extremely clear and direct, tailored precisely for world class sound systems and clubs. Midnight Sun is another example of why he is credited as one of the godfathers to the current wave of hard and industrial-inspired techno.

out for a while: Unhuman – Nylon Speech EP [Bite]

 

Artist:
Unhuman

 

Title:
Nylon Speech EP

 

Label:
Bite

 

Cat#:
BITE08

 

Release Date:
24th May 2019

 

Format:
vinyl & digital

 

Tracklist:
A1.
Rapid Body Control

A2.
Abdominal Pain

B1.
Nylon Speech

B2.
Seuche
[feat. Petra Flurr]

 

Press Info:
Unhuman presents his most dancefloor sculpted EP yet for BITE. Following a natural evolution from his roots in post-punk to experimental and noise through electro-mutant-infused techno, Manos Simotas finds himself diving into uncharted territory. As a regular mainstay of major clubs in Berlin and globally (even holding a residency at Constant Value in Seoul), Unhuman is also the founder of Liber Null Berlin, which has played a critical role for many years unifying the freedom of arts through conceptual event series in the scene.

On Nylon Speech, he finds an amalgamation between industrial techno and bass music, which spurs an entirely new and forward sound designed to both move and confront the listener. Geared for the club, “Rapid Body Corruption” drives forward with ripping bass drones, while the title track takes for a more mental approach that distorts reality. “Abdominal Pain” exemplifies the bass influences with a slow industrial dirge. On the closer “Seuche” guests batcave mainstay Petra Flurr on vocals tying together the ground influences of the project itself. With a genre-bending array in just 4 tracks, Nylon Speech focuses in on pure electronic action.
