Info:
Index Marcel Fengler continues with its second installment, introducing an expertly produced EP from respected long-running artist Echoplex.

Since 2000 Echoplex, the Polish born Peter Sliwinski, has released truly pioneering, atmospheric and soulful techno, appearing on his own Soleil label, or Synewave amongst many others.

This triumphant return to the limelight comes in the form of three stand out tracks. Aside cut ‘The Soft Planet’ gyrates to a slamming hi-tech broken beat, a purist and well controlled atmosphere-track, full of details and refined advanced sounds.

‘The VS Theme’ moves into driving 4/4 mode, while maintaing Echoplex’s rich sound palette, warm Detroit-vibes keys and full-spectrum high-end production. The B-side is then completed with the more submerged tones of ‘The Reaction’; taking a hypnotic, side-angle snapshot of the deeper, more abstract places inside his classic producer’s headspace. Each track is rich in colour and detail, well balanced and elegantly sequenced. Simply essential, timeless techno from one of the underground’s finest.

(Black Asteroid Experimental Remix)

Press Info:
Blank Code starts 2014 off strong with their latest EP Rituals of Submission, produced by Luis Flores with remixes by Black Asteroid and DJ Hyperactive. The opening track Discipline starts off with a nice creepy atmosphere supported by a solid kick and just the right amount of percussion to hook you into the track’s core rhythm, which stays consistent while the supporting percussion keeps the intensity of the track in constant motion. Black Asteroid’s Discipline Remix gives the track a whole new perspective, while staying true to the original’s excellent use of classic elements. The straightforward kick and up-beats work perfect with this track’s industrial bass line, while cleverly programmed analog synths carry the track with slow triplet rhythms, and quirky stabs that drift off to space.

Luis Flores’ second original composition, The Word, follows the same philosophy as Discipline with many elements coming together to form one solid rhythm. This is a huge sounding track with intricate metal percussion and pitch modulated stabs that form a dark and inciting hook which is overtaken by filtered claps as the track progresses. DJ Hyperactive gets down to business with his remix of The Word and lets his Chicago roots shine through as hats on all fours and hard hitting claps are used to raise the energy sparked by the deep kick and well processed stab.

Black Asteroid gives us something special exclusive to the digital release, with an alternate version of his Discipline remix. The Experimental Remix uses the same parts from his original remix and rearranges them into a much more dynamic composition where the synths get really tweaked out.

Press Info:
Blank Code is a Detroit, USA techno outfit that have released music by artists like Bas Mooy, Mike Parker, Brian Sanhaji, DJ Hyperactive, Drumcell, and many more.

American born, now Germany-based, Bill Youngman joins the illustrious Blank Code ranks. An artist who has been working with live music since 1994, his release back catalogue includes labels like Tresor, Killekill, Snork Enterprises, TANSTAAFL, as well as collaborating with Neil Landstrumm and Janice.

“Flyby” opens with a stomping kick met with a throbbing bassline which is contrasted by captivating melody overtones that change mood to a dreamy and spacious, delicate journey of analogue emotion.

Second up, “Twister” has a thundering rhythm wrapped up in building tension and bouncing, modular textures that create an aggressive, heads down trip, with unrelenting techno power.

“Slider” closes the release with a more hypnotic approach, using static fuzz and quirky effects as its backdrop. A tight, swirling lead over a steady groove with skittering hi-hats add a sense of depth to this mind and body workout.
