With the release of the „Verbatim EP“ produced by Pirate Audio Soundsystem-founder, Spiral Tribe-member and 69db co-founder James Hawley a.k.a Jack Acid the Paris-based BLIM Records is back for fall 2013, once again clearly emphasizing on the musical change that has been taking place since the labels relaunch.

With five tracks coming from the deepest US underground we are taken to the realm of raw, uncut and well experimental Techno grindings that – although not crossing the 130bpm mark – waves goodbye to the so called New Wave Of Techno and simply kicks the punters ass straightaway with dark layers of distortion, trainwrecking MonoAcid processing, grinding, dubbed out madness and well-tripping beats that take electronic music back to its very original habitats and rebrand the term of Electronic Body Music for the reason of being a 100% physical experience when blasting through a proper underground sound system.

Think of dark, rotten basements, abandoned industrial spaces and illegal raves taking place on 24th century battlefields – that's what the „Verbatim EP“ is all about. Can you take it?

Taken from their latest album "Sisyphus" and perfectly timed for early fall NO MORE have recently unveiled a quite autumnal video on youtube that comes alongside their partly Folk'ish and Campfire Indie infused song "Le Girafes Sur Mer". Just sit back and relax....

Der in Los Angeles beheimatete Stephen „Thundercat“ Burner nun also mit seinem zweiten Album auf Brainfeeder, das wie schon der Solo-Erstling „The Golden Age Of The Apokalypse“ von Flying Lotus als Koproduzent betreut wurde. Mehr noch als auf dem in 2011 erschienen Debut legt Burner hier seine langjährige Erfahrung als Session- und Bandmusiker für Snoop Dogg, Erykah Baduh, Suicidal Tendencies oder gar die Red Hot Chili Peppers in die Waagschale und liefert mit „Apocalypse“ ein astreines, elektronisches Funkalbum, das zwar an einigen Stellen zu sehr in seichten Gewässern schwimmt, aber dennoch für Fans der eher Easy Listening-bezogenen und vocallastigen Elektronik ein homogenes – und deshalb angenehmes - Gesamtbild abgibt.
6 Points (of 10)

There's absolutely no chance to not love New Order's "Blue Monday". And it's great to see what Greg Wilson did to that classic back in 1984 with just two turntables and a crappy mixer. This man is legend.

Set for release on September 13th via Blu Fin is Pierre Deutschmann's newest longplay audio assault named "Betroit", a name paying homage to the two essential cities mainly responsible for the rise of the underground dance music they use to call TECHNO. And so is the album - instead of riding the so-called, slowed down Nu Wave Of Techno like many others Mr. Deutschmann focuses on the very essence of this music - straightforward drums, dark'ish and sci-fi-sounding tones, shifting patterns and a straight "no bullshit" attitude when it comes to pure dancefloor functionality. But "Betroit" serves more than that, especially when it comes to the electroid excursions of "Area 1507" that unveil a certain deepness lying within the string melancholia covered beat abstractions and sub low basslines or the futuristic stomper "Looking Backwards" that - although causing kickdrum induced devastation on the dancefloor - has a bit of a 28th Century Jazz feel to it when one listens quite closely. And it's these little twists and turns that keep the attention level high when one listens to the thirteen tracks and two skits of "Betroit" as a whole album which, in clear opposite to a lot of other Techno albums, is an exciting and partly even anthemic - "Hunch & Guess" ! - journey. Plus a recommended one for the lovers of raw, uncut but still advanced electronic dance music.

Hamburg's finest bass export BRAZED are back with a new release on Audiolith catering a massive remix package including 5 full on and hanseatic remixes of their tune "Low Orbit". Providing huge reworks for the Drum'n'Bass, Dubstep and 4/4 massive out there BRAZED are killing soundbwoys with deadly subs and providing some of the illest, uber-compressed brockout shit available these days. 100% recommended.
