It features two remixes of two different tracks from Tommy Four Seven´s recently released debut album “Primate” (CLRCD010).

In 2006 techno and ambient pioneer Luke Slater launched his own label, Mote Evolver. Besides Mr. Slater himself and his Planetary Assault Systems and L.B.

Forward Strategy Group – Labour Division (2012)
Opening up the EP is the album’s title track, a classic Forward Strategy Group lesson in restraint as the track’s central percussion hits get continually worked over six and a half minutes, forming a hypnotic groove that has been a key part of Perc’s DJ sets this year. Next up is ‘Mandate’, where a semi-broken […]
Alexey Volkov – Overshadow (Endless Remix) (2012)
Alexey Volkov returns with another skulking slab of industrial-inspired techno on Planete Rouge Records. Title track “Dust” launches the EP into an immediately throbbing groove, rung through with the dissonant clangs of the genre’s cold, machine-obsessed heritage. This hydraulic homage is succeeded by “Overshadow”—a closer inspection of techno’s cogs and wheels that sees Volkov tinkering […]

He is a founding partner and creative director of Nopal Beat Records and Antena Discos. He is also one half ot the audiovisual project, Kumbia Korrupters, which […]
Monolake – Foreign Object (2012)
‘Foreign Object’ is the most extreme case here; a track with that name got completely discarded on the evening prior to the final CD mastering process and replaced by a new composition created in a rush at that very night: During the creation process of the album I spent a lot of time trying out […]
Panasonic – Murto (1996)
If it were possible for a computer to write a music program designed to destroy both the instruments that created the notes and the speakers that played them, this is it. This Finnish band has produced a record of relentless tones (notes seems too gentle a word), rhythms, and beats that seem intent on obliterating […]
