JTC - "In Transit"
Gosub - "Blue In Black"
Sync 24 & Defekt - "Pulse Effect"
Versalife - "Ionization"
Review: James T. Cotton, Gosub and Versalife all feature on the third and penultimate instalment of Cultivated Electronics' World Electronix series. Established last summer, the series allowed the London based Cultivated Electronics the chance to champion contemporary electro from an international cast, with The Exaltics, prolific Finnish producers Morphology and Abstract Forms label chief Deixis included on the previous two volumes. This 12" is by far the most high profile however, with Nation alumnus James T Cotton turning in a tough analogue dreamer "In Transit" under the recently shorn down JTC banner, continuing the form shown on full EPs for Killekill, Hoya Hoya and newcomers Ansatz this year. Alongside this are contributions from Boris Bunnik's Versalife project, the Miami-based Shad T. Scott aka Gosub, and a collaboration between CE label head Sync 24 and Dublin based electro producer DeFeKT.

The Future Of Memory
Operate At Your Optimum
Sense & Simplicity
Make Believe
Review: The fifth EP in Carsten Nicolai and Olaf Bender's Diamond Version series sees the duo continue their hard-edged series of techno abstractions. "The Future of Memory" opens with relentless broken beats and subsonic blips, while stripped to just a few elements, while "Operate At Your Optimum" sees lumbering drums pile up against one another as great blasts of fuzzy noise collide with depth charged bass licks. If there are any doubts that EP 5 twitches and crackles with an unpredictability and rawness, then check "Sense & Simplicity" or "Make Believe". Both feature a humming sound that could be coming from a live mic left lying on a studio floor while glitchy percussive slivers and bursts of noise crawl like diseased rodents over the duo's jittery, pared back drums and electronic rhythms.

Review: Also known as CN and 030303, Norwegian noisemaker EOD lays out a bountiful breakbeat spread that celebrates electronica's most formative phases without ever coming across as overly nostalgic or sentimental. Highlights include the early Orbital/Black Strobisms of "Track 2", the Inner City-style synth evangelism of "Track 5" and the thumping, psychedelic deep-space hypno bass belches of "Track 7". Explosive!

Booty Clap
Review: Australian imprint Thug Records have already showed themselves to be one of the more interesting house music labels this year with releases from Ben Cenac (aka Dream 2 Science), DJ Sotofett's "DIGGI-DUBBI-TRIPP-MIXES" of material from Nick Anthony Simoncino and Mark Rogers, and most recently a split release from the aforementioned Simnocino and LIES stalwart Steve Summers. Their latest releases sees Thug expand their remit further into the realm of ghetto house, with an EP from veteran Chi-town producer DJ Slugo; born Thomas Kendricks, the producer is one of the privileged few to have released on the hallowed Chicago institution Dance Mania back in the label's 90s heyday. By no means inactive since then, the producer's style, like much of his contemporaries has moved into the realms of faster juke styles, though the filthy nature of his lyrical content remains. The relentless "Booty Clap" is a real highlight here!

Elec Pt1 - "This Is Not A Test"
Review: Whilst there's some justification to the criticism that acid house is one dimensional in the hands of most producers, there are still certain labels and artists who prove ingenuity is still possible to achieve when relying on the humble Roland 303. Andreas Tilliander's TM404 LP for Kontra earlier this year is an obvious example, whilst Absurd's Acid Test series has also provided a platform for Tin Man, Dozzy and Pepe Bradock to introduce some new ideas into the field. Dutch label 030303 has been pioneering this approach for some time and return here with a sequel to the compilation with which they launched in 2009. This second installment showcases artists both well-known artists and obscure, with the likes of DMX Krew, Lunar Disko regular Automatic Tasty, Jared Wilson and Dutch veterans Dexter and Drvg Cvltvre joined by Cosmic Force, Jonny 3 Snares and the amusingly monikered Roy Of The Ravers. The latter's "Acid Hors D'oeuvre" is one of many lysergic highlights on this double LP offering.

Review: Formed out of the Glasgow club night of the near same name, Wrong Island Communications launches in wonderful fashion with this eponymously titled record from M O O N. The awkward to type on a keyboard M O O N is the artist name of 18 year old Bostonian Stephen Gilarde who counts as his uncle the grizzly head of all things DFA Mr James Murphy! Having self released this four track EP digitally last year, Wrong Island subsequently licensed the material to launch their label as well as snaring two further EPs from Gilarde that are due for release over the next twelve months. Recorded on some brand new second hand material gifted to him by the Juan Maclean, Gilarde's compositional talent is obvious from the Syclops in anti gravity mode stylings of opening track "Paris". The deranged punk funk of "Hydrogen" is as good as anything his uncle signed to DFA in their pomp. Limited to 100 copies, this debut Wrong Island transmission is made all the more special by a picture sleeve designed by Madison McKenna and an A4 insert detailing the label's future plans.

Bioluminiscent Trees (5:28)
Frond Of Stars (3:10)
Review: Although Emile Facey has been producing as Plant 43 for roughly six years, the UK producer appears to be in a rich vein of form right now. Having debuted in impressive fashion on Dutch label Frustrated funk earlier this year, Plant 43 resurfaces on Semantica with this equally worthy five track 12" The Sentient City Awakens. No stranger to Svreca's label having first graced Semantica last year, this record will please Plant 43 fans no end, with "Inward Stream" and "Hydro Subway" showing equal reverence to melody and booming percussion that few other current electro practitioners can match. Concluding production "Frond Of Stars" is beautifully epic.

Conduit (Volsoc Orange Problem remix)
Hashtag (Radioactive Man mix)
Review: Earlier this year saw the phoenix-like relaunch of Billy Nasty's iconic Electrix Records label after six years of dormancy with the superbly monikered Clave To The Rhythm EP from Radio Nasty setting the standard for what to expect. Back 2 Basics co-founder Carl A Finlow is a fine choice to continue the label's second ascent, and marks his return to Electrix having released the Format Years 12" a decade ago. The Boot Loop EP is the sort of tough, tech infused electro you want from an Electrix release, "Conduit" sits just the right side of Breaks, whilst "Hashtag" sounds like a disorientated Gesloten Circkel. Killer remixes too from Radioactive Man and Volsoc, the pair of Jean-Paul Bondy and Justin Maxwell who apparently got back in the studio especially for this release.

Review: The Brutalist Sunset label resurfaces with Bitstream's Dave Conner at the helm for their annual transmission under a newly formed alias. The Uexkell project fits in perfectly with the Brutalist Sunset manifesto of transmissions from deep within the mainframe, with this four track EP rippling with pure hardware intent. Mind bending from the off, "Hormad" revolves around half tempo breakbeats and lopsided buzzsaw synths that will appeal to the freaks out there. "Keonigs Division" opts for a Utopian sheen whilst keeping the rhythmics broken and caked in tape fuzz, whilst "All Rac" is thunderous, wall shaking electro at it's finest. Final track "Exer" sees Conner adopt a more experimental tone which will leave you clamouring for more Uexkell material.

Review: RVNG Intl have already served up one of this year's most memorable long players in Max D's House of Woo, and they secure another potential candidate for those end of year lists with the superb Joy One Mile from Stellar Om Source. The French producer has demonstrated an increasing interest in techno that's no doubt informed by her current base in The Netherlands which was explored explicitly on last year's No Label 12" for Rush Hour. It's expanded much further on this eight track set which was apparently laid down live in one take without overdubs, improvised limitations or consequence. Gauldi subsequently handed these recordings to Gunnar Wendel, aka Kassem Mosse, who mixed down and arranged the album in its entirety with little prior guidance. The resultant album focuses in on a loose amalgamation of proper electro and detuned techno, with "Par Amour" an immediate highlight.

Review: Nietzschian explorations of the electro template abound on Zarathrusta, the first release on UK platform Abstract Forms for the prolific Italian audio visual artist Federico Leocata. Naturally drawing inspiration from Friedrich's most recognisable philosophical tome, Leocata also looks to the iconic discography of Gerald Donald for this six track 12". Indeed, it would be hard to draw from the classic Detroit electro sound without taking in elements of Donald's work as Heinrich Mueller or Der Zyklus, yet Leocata successfully veers past mere pastiche thanks to the fact his own take on the Utopian vision is just so hypnotic and seductive.

Review: No-nonsense new release from Galaxian, who those of you in the know will remember from last year as this lively styled leftfield artist with oodles of passion and ideas debuted on his own Doppelganger imprint with the cult hit, End of Forever CDr only album. This is Galaxian's first ever vinyl excursion, the tracks having been scooped by LKT for this blinding release. Galaxian's style is difficult to categorize, which is precisely why we dig it! Is it techno, is it electro, or something else completely?! Who cares, as the funk, passion and positive energy is ever present in every nugget here, from the moody opening intro, to the dizzying electronic, crazy-ass funk of "Surge" and the unstoppable cyborg-juggernaut that is "Warhead". Immense! So enough of me chatting, check out the samples and you decide! Miss at your peril! Limited edition vinyl with matte poster print!
