The French DJ & producer Djinxx brings an excellent deep techno longplayer to be classified with US productions like UR. Jori Hulkonnen's remix is in the same way but it's more atmospheric and a little bit acid: superb! Finally, the last rework done by Sébastien Léger, more dancefloor, develops a nice and ultra efficient long break. Strongly recommended!

The French duet is back with its so particular minimal house style. The A-side longplayer (14 minutes long!!) and the two other tracks are driving & hypnotizing and each of them develop an original atmosphere, most of the time dark, thanks to various vocal samples or grating sounds. Experimental house lovers: don't miss it!! Check audio sample on Plak web site!

Half of Duplex 100 brings in solo an excellent EP on the French label Lumina. "Photic Driving" is a progressive deep techno track where beautiful sounds and driving rhythm are perfectly mixed together. The remix by Taho, label's owner, is more atmospheric and as fine and efficient as the original. Finally, "Surfing Electron" starts in a minimal & raw and even aggressive way (typical German style!) and ends also with a deep touch. Highly recommended! Check mp3s on Lumina web site!

The French label started by Kiko love 80s italo disco 80s sound and proves it one more time with this EP that brings three efficient tracks: the pumpy & housy "soul Feeling" by Kiko & Gino's, the retro electroclash "Electric cat theme" by Electric Cat and the percussive "Theme from Furyo" by Kiko. Dancefloor fillers!

Following their wonderful "Pragmatic Response EP" published in middle of last year, Blotnik Brothers's second release on Satamile confirms our Swedish's attraction for a dancefloor, atmospheric and percussive electro. Sometimes near to Kraftwerk sound in particular on "Le monde", a brilliant French vocoded track, sometimes close to Dr. Scissors... read more

To finish the year 2004 by an explosive output, such was Andrew A. Price's desire. A wish fulfilled with the publication of Bytecon's second release on the New-Yorker structure. An impressive production, as expected now from this Belgian artist deeply early influenced by new beat and 90's rave music. "I-WORM Intruder" opens the A side by a... read more
