Application Front End
(Dust Science Recordings)
Martin and Richard Dust, best known as two-thirds of Sheffield techno legends The Black Dog, turn their attention to a more cerebral sound inspired by the teaching practices of Japanese sushi masters.
Beneath WIP
(Berceuse Heroique)
This one from Beneath has been floating about for a while but it finally gets the vinyl treatment thanks to the very cool Berceuse Heroique. Comes backed with an old Horsepower Productions nugget.
Perc & Truss Van Der Valk
(Perc Trax Ltd)
The two modern dons of pounding industrial techno team up for a suite of four analogue hardware jams, each recorded in one take with plenty of rough edges left in.
Yor Unbennent/Torn
(Creme)
After a trio of releases on Purple Maze, the German producer comes up with a new EP of rough acid house on Creme.
Dario Zenker Morsin
(The Trilogy Tapes)
The ever- productive Trilogy Tapes returns with a new EP of dirty, dubbed-out techno from the German veteran Zenker (right). A little less twisted than many a TTT release.
Strategy Osmosis
(Peak Oil)
Portland is probably not the first place most people would look for someone tearing up and reimagining the history of the UK hardcore continuum, but Strategy has never been one for the obvious. Inspired and irreverent breakbeat workouts.
R-Zone Visions Of A Deepweb
(R-Zone)
Last one this month is an intergalactic journey or some other such metaphor for a gloriously colourful track of analogue psychedelia. No one does it better than the mysterious R-Zone.
