Track 1 (8:16)
Track 2 (7:46)
Track 3 (7:12)
Review: Only Music Matters are back with more classy tech house bait on super limited 12". An unknown artist or artists take care of the sounds and immediately lock you in a 4am groove. The silvery drums, the flutter of snares and the warped synth hook of 'Track 1' all race along smoothly and seductively. 'Track 2' is more deep and spacious, with eerie leads and playful loops that will tease and please the floor. 'Track 3' brings a vulnerable The Weeknd vocal to a futuristic electro beat and it is an unlikely but brilliant combo that will make for the standout tune in any set. These are characterful minimal tools.

Review: Steve O'Sullivan has been a prolific collaborator around the deep techno and minimal scene for a long time now, and he really hammers that point home with this expansive new project on Sushitech. Across eight tracks, the Mosaic maestro teams up with artists ranging from premier league titans like Ricardo Villalobos and Brawther through to emergent talents such as Soela and Ben Buitendijk. Each guest artist brings their particular slant to their track, but O'Sullivan's overarching deepness is the glue that binds the release together in a swirl of dubby pads. The results are consistently classy, but you knew that already right?

Review: Silat Beksi has been busy this year. Remarkably, this expansive double-pack on Burnski's Constant Black label - officially his second full-length excursion and first for six years - is the Ukrainian producer's fifth vinyl missive of 2020. Mate is a fluid, off-kilter and sonically detailed affair, with manipulated jazz samples, oddball spoken word snippets and pots-and-pans percussion mingling with outer-space tech-house grooves, bouncy deep house rhythms, the eccentric stereo panning of Ricardo Villalobos and the locked-in hypnotism of Eastern European minimal techno. It's a sonic palette that guarantees thrills throughout, with Beksi doing a brilliant job of showcasing his distinctive production style.

Activator (8:39)
Control Center (7:41)
Secret House (7:22)
Review: Last time we heard from Giuliano Lomonte, back in June 2020, he was working in cahoots with like-minded pal and fellow Berlin resident Alexis Carbrera. Here he makes his first appearance on Half Baked Records, in the process delivering his first solo single since 2019. The standout is arguably A-side 'Activator', a tactile, tech-tinged dancefloor roller in which spoken word snippets and fluttering electronic motifs cluster around a typically chunky and shuffling groove. The Italian producer opts for a deeper and more hypnotic vibe on the deep house/tech-house fusion of 'Control Center', before reaching for starry electronics, bubbly synth-bass and loose-limbed late '90s style tech-house beats on 'Secret House'.

Review: A repress for four prime slices of classic Baby Ford minimal tech gear, from the rhythm-centric drum machine fest 'Very', the resonant bleepy tones of 'Test', the sparse and spacious 'Down' and the subtle acid undertones of 'Percy'. Baby Ford is finally getting his props as one the UK acid and techno scene's true innovators and pioneers, and these four very mixable tracks are four more reasons why this is only right.

Review: After an impressive debut transmission, Oscuro Records is back with a second instalment. It is Italian talent Deyayu who takes the reins with four cuts of driving house music that are filled with flavour. First out of the blocks is 'Loser', an offbeat tune with retro chords and churning beats. 'Normalized' is a quicker cut with techno in its bones and lively percussion layered over the top, while 'Sender' sinks down into a more squelchy groove with woozy late night pads. There is plenty of variation and invention across these tunes, making this another good one for Oscuro Records.

Manipulate Our Reflections (Relic remix) (7:12)
Review: Having impressed with his 2019 debut album on Negentropy, the breaks/tech-house/minimal techno fusion of Rhythm Tension, Zweizig has been given a chance to showcase his wares on Constant Sound's popular Constant Black offshoot. The headline attraction is undoubtedly opener 'Manipulate Our Reflections', a spaced-out chunk of hypnotic late-night science that wraps wonky, Villalobos style electronic noises and pulsing pads around a locked in (but also surprisingly swinging) tech-house groove. Relic provides a chunkier and groovier remix that boasts darker noises and a more beefed-up sound, while bonus cut 'Vvoid' is a twisted, undulating acid-jacker.

His own Up The Stuss label is the home for his latest project, a collab with SAM on a bunch of hugely useful club tracks. Each one is aimed at the club, but different moments of the night. There is a lovely depth and warmth to 'Spaceship' that gets you in the mood, while the likes of 'Here To Catch You' are dreamy 5am joints and 'Sirine' is busy but balmy, with deft synth motifs and kinetic drum work that sweeps you off your feet. Lovely stuff.

Corroded
Pass Over
Viktrak
The Free
Review: A plethora of different dancefloor flavours from Frankfurt's Chris Geschwidner, across four tracks, that take in the warmth and soul of house and the cold steel beauty of techno and bound them up into something fresh and altogether new. 'Corroded' has the colliding drum machines and handclaps of vintage techno or even electro, but welded to a skippy, playful beat that is a definite mood lifter, while dreamy synths seductively cut a swathe around the metronomic hypnotism. 'Pass Over' is smoother, sleeker and combines a bleep techno approach to the soundscape with a bed of comforting Detroit-style synths and strings. 'Viktrak' has more classic Motor City influences but a more classic garage-slanted beat regime - imagine Derrick May's 'Nude Photo' overhauled by Roy Davis Jr. 'The Free' ends the set off with simple but effective electro funk flourishes and a sense of sunny optimism, bringing this lively, accessible but deep affair to a close.

Pythagorean
Do-re-me
Solfeggio
Review: Following from their welcome bounce back with the D Construction EP, London-based duo OdD are at it again with The Hexachord EP. Their strain of minimal tech house has a raw, percussive focus which champions the power of the drums, whipping up interwoven rhythms aimed squarely at the floor and nowhere else. 'Pythagorean' opens up this new set from the duo in a cascading patter of big and small sounds all pushed along by a nagging hat. 'Do-re-me' nestles down into a subtly dubbed groove, and 'Solfeggio' revels in the nagging funk of a broken kick rhythm and some woozy pad action for a deep destroyer of the classiest kind.

Twisted Dreams (8:05)
Anything (6:05)
Constant (6:13)
Review: American house don Delano Smith is one of the more low key artists from the mid west, but there is no real reason why he should be. He has a stripped back sound that is based on building the perfect loops and embellishing them with only the most subtle but subversive details. He follows that MO once more here on Mixmode Recordings. 'Twisted Dreams' is as stripped back as they come, but it still hooks you in for the ride. 'Anything' then gets a little more amped up, with bulky kick drums and mournful chords draped in from above. 'Constant' is full flavour, full bodied, rolling deep and dubby house par excellence.

Review: Aesthetic Audio are back with another grip of sleek and refined tech house rollers to keep you bumping from dusk 'till dawn. First up, Dudley Strangeways lays down a smooth blend of cosy organ tones and crisp, shuffling drums that lend themselves to the warm-up as much as the after-hours. Loht Vostok's 'La Luz' has a tighter uptempo flavour, but it's still resolutely deep. TIJN takes things in a mellow, introspective direction without slouching on the groove, and Jean Bressan taps into a playful, artfully sculpted vibe with plenty of funk. If you're looking for something sophisticated to slip into a long and winding session, this record will have you covered four times over.

Track 1 (7:46)
Review: If you dig tried and tested tech-house grooves fused with elements from classic cuts, there's a fair chance you've already snagged copies of numerous volumes in the popular East End Edits series. We'd suggest taking a listen to the clips of the imprint's latest single-sided missive, which not so subtly pitches up and beefs up one of the greatest summer sing-alongs of all time: Bill Withers' 'Lovely Day'. Built around a restless, non-stop house groove - all hissing cymbals, crunchy snares and locked-in kick-drums - the rework builds impressively after introducing the track's famous bassline before introducing the sweeping strings and Withers' iconic vocal. A simple idea executed impressively.

1m Pendulum (7:12)
Hotep (6:00)
Review: It's been a while since we last heard from deep cover tech house crew OdD, but finally they're back on their own label OdD Music. As demonstrated throughout their discography, the pairing of Damian Daley and Danny Dixon have a unique touch when it comes to their craft, edging a little bite and verve into their productions which is instantly more interesting than 90% of music in the close vicinity. Even the comparatively minimal '1m Pendulum' has more than enough intrigue in the looping phrases darting around the groove. 'Hotep' has an almost French micro house flavour to it, but with a little UK rudeness when it reaches the final third. 'Obelisk' takes the prize though, edging some genuinely moving keys into the mix across a long form, live-feeling techno trip-out.

In Motion (11:23)
Don't Play (feat Ava) (10:07)
Review: Theo Parrish is one of those characters who manages to unite lovers of both house and techno, indeed producing offerings that seem to make the distinction utterly redundant. How does he doe it? Well, if this pair of new tracks are anything to go on, it's the simple trick of making tracks that combine the soufulness and rootsy earthiness of house with a trippy sense of the futuristic and psychedelic that elevates them out of the ordinary.
Take, for instance 'In Motion's simple piano stabs and the subsequent off kilter groove that builds up around them. Or, equally, the cheeky bass keyboard manoeuvres that form the backbone of 'Don't Play' featuring Ava, funky enough to be Stevie Wonder but then matched with caustic, scything hi-hats that have more than a hint of the surreal and robotic about them. Best of all, it doesn't feel like a compromise, it feels like a full on creation that acknowledges both traditions but refuses to follow either slavishly.

Deep Soul Calm (The Vast Profound remix) (7:30)
Review: Fourier Transform is a brand new label vying for attention in the minimal and tech house world. On the evidence of its first transmission it will do so with ease: Casey Tucker brings the space age tech funk on 'Deep Soul Calm' with its wiggy lead and crashing hits, then 'Identity' goes more deep on warmer pads and supple grooves. The Vast Profound remix of 'Deep Soul Calm' is a cosmic one, with plenty of modulated synths weaving and warping their way through the cosmos on a wave of positivity.

Review: Burnski and Michael James ignited their Relic collaboration last year with a classy drop on oge, and they're back again on Constant Black with some devastatingly bumping minimal tech house. There's a hi-tech finish to this whole EP, from the moody lead cut "D" to the slippery, funkified "E". The mix is clean as a whistle and maximized for every little production wriggle and shapely bassline to cut through on any system, even in the hazier clouds of pad hovering over "F". Don't skip over the B2 though - as with all the best EPs there's gold to be savoured in the crafty machine shuffle and rubbery b-line of "G".

Pivo's View (6:18)
Review: The Eastenderz label continues to kill it and define its own micro-scene with each and every release. Fabe is very much part of this little pocket where tech house, minimal and electronic funk all coalesce into club-ready pumpers with plenty of personalities. 'Tape Type' bobbles along with nice off kilter hits and a rasping bass. 'Superbold' heads to the cosmos with its smeared pads and expansive feel and 'Playing Trigs' then dials it back to silky deep house sounds with lush neon pads. Closer 'Pivo's View' is another airy cut with well-deployed vocal stabs and a general sense of carefree cool that it's hard not to love.

His Diynamic label was famous for bringing colour back to dance music after the bleak minimal years. He made 'fairground tech house' as it was called. He then became a huge draw at Ibiza's premium VIP clubs and appeared in Grand Theft Auto. This album takes him to major label Sony and features Hollywood names like Jamie Foxx. It is melodic, accessible house from one of electronic music's most famous names.

Review: Techno sorcerer Stephan Bodzin returns with his latest LP. In the last year, he glanced over unfinished material in his musical archive, and while spending time in Brazil, he selected 17 favourites and completed them to present on this album titled Boavista. With the aim of painting 'musical pictures that conjure up very real emotions in the listener', it features the typical style of dancefloor drama you have come to expect from the German producer such as the saucer-eyed epic 'Lil', or the strobe-lit rush of 'Astronautin' to the oncoming sunset euphoria of 'Nothing Like You' (feat Luna Semara) and the bittersweet affair River' towards the end.

He still has a sound that is all his own and manages to make you want to dance for days despite his own self imposed limitations. This new EP for Up The Stuss is another case in point. 'Holo' opens with a farting bassline under nice slick hi hats as the drums duck and dive and you do too. 'Bec's Groove' then gets more heady, with swirling pads circling round a nice vocal and nimble hits and 'Jazzed In Time' plays with more freeform chords over punchy, rubbery kicks that make you thrust your fist skyward.

No Car, Big Garage (6:50)
He Displays Nothing But... (9:05)
Review: Half Baked return with a serious heater from Arno, who explores all kinds of crafty twists on the garage and electro resurgences with one eye on the minimal scene. This is hardly minimal music though - 'Why Does The Lion Get Lost In The Jungle?!' rattles through pan pot percussion and twitchy breakstep rhythm formations while nagging synth lines and plenty of sub flex make for an especially naughty club wrecker. 'No Car, Big Garage' brings a little machine funk into the mix with some killer DX7 organ bass for good measure. 'He Displays Nothing But...' takes things in a more housey direction with some crisp 909 claps and a vivid, trippy backdrop of vocal samples and nimble synth lines. Classy, inventive dance music for the freaky people.

'Forget Me' keeps up the seductive but punchy vibes with balmy pads and louche drums and the flip side voyages into space with the squelchy astral funk of 'Pickwick' and 90s-tinged tech of 'Martenitsa'.

Review: Rich NXT is one of the super reliable contemporary house producers who serve up functional records with a twist. Here comes another such trio on the popular Eastenderz label. 'Everon' pairs acidic bass and bobbling grooves with a heady sax line that drifts up top to add the all important special ingredient. 'Izbraz' is a much darker tune - a collision of dusty jungle breaks, haunting chords and warped vocals that is brilliantly dense and unusual. Lastly, 'Radian' slips into a freak 4am minimal vibe with a hiccupping hook and crispy 90s tech house beats.

'Vernal Station' is another interplanetary trip with zippy melodies and bass-driven breaks finished with the crispiest and most snappy of snares. T Jacques remixes the opener into something more deep but just as dynamic and Harry Wills' Thrust Velocity mix of 'Vernal Station' is all bubbly bass and bendy synths, wet hits and dubby house goodness.

As such who finer to remix than the king that milieu, Ricardo Villalobos. His first version is an empty, stripped back and full of sub bass and sine wave details, his second is a slightly fuller track with gorgeous hits and plenty of aliens living in the grooves.

Review: Looks like we have another Digwah white label in this week. The label first appeared on our radar several years ago with its second release 'Something Else' by an anonymous artist who threw down a sublime vocal by Cuba Gooding over a pumping acid tech house groove. Fast forward to DIGWAH 07, the formula remains the same and is still rather effective. In this case, the vocals are taken from a rather legendary early '90s pop collaboration over a hypnotic, bass-driven minimal house groove aimed squarely at the afterhours dancefloor.

They have served up a wealth of club ready sounds that take in garage, house, techno and minimal from a range of fresh artists. After standouts from the likes of Wilfy D and Vitess coes this super split from Admnti and T Jacques. There is a seductive smoothness to the comsic house pumper that is opener 'Overthink' while 'Hypersphere' has a warm, surging bassline that will act as a life-giving pulse for any club. T Jacques immediately cuts loose on the futuristic tech of 'Five Dollar Shake' and 'Blunted' is another characterful collection of house kicks, watery effects and old school baselines that surge through the stars.

East End Dubs & Sidney Charles - "Mental Stealth" (6:07)
East End Dubs & Rich NxT - "Delicut" (7:46)
East End Dubs & Cuartero - "Static Sea" (6:59)
Review: The unstoppable East End Dubs launches yet another vinyl series here: introducing the first edition of the Collaborations series which features the label chief teaming up with some of the biggest names in tech house. Four cuts on this one: on the A side you've got 'Stargaze' in conjunction with Mannheim's Fabe (Salty Nuts) where they serve up some minimal boompty-funk, while C1 is with the ever reliable Sidney Charles on the hypnotic swing of 'Mental Stealth'. On side D is where it gets serious, on the moody, heads-down groove of 'Delicut' with fellow Londoner Rich NxT, and ending with the infectious afterhours bounce of 'Static Sea' with the ascendant Cuartero.

Track & Trace (6:50)
The Leyton House Track (Silverlining remix) (6:57)
Purple Gloves (6:31)
Switchheroo (Jeigo remix) (6:06)
Review: Right Angle Records marks its arrival into the world of minimal and tech house with a pair of fresh new cuts from Mr Fixie. His first original, 'Track & Trace' is a bulbous party pumper with nice tripped out effects, then the other, 'Purple Gloves' is a more tense and acid laced bumper.
'The Leyton House Track' is presented as a Silverlining remix, and it brings busted bass with skipping kicks and a nice sweet vocal for some rude boy flavours. Last of all, we're treated to some dreamy old school breakbeats on 'Switchheroo' (Jeigo remix).

Contrapoint Y (7:15)
Where I'm (8:01)
Sass (8:58)
Heads Down (7:44)
Review: You can't beat a bit of hand stamped, vinyl only, white label minimal techno when it comes to knowing dance floors, and OGE now serve up a seventh such slab of wax. There is a bubbling bassline and softness to the hi hats of 'Contrapoint Y' that immediately brings the vibes, then 'Where I'm' disorientates with its swimming pads, icy claps and drawn out synth smears before the flappy kick eventually mark lift off proper. 'Sass' is perfectly dry, expertly reduced minimal house that is absolute late night bait and 'Heads Down' is the sort of undulating, freaky tech house that Craig Richards feeds off.

No Distance (7:59)
No Distance (Lake People remix) (7:44)
Review: Rumors chief Guy Gerber teams up with Innervisions co-head Dixon for the life-affirming dancefloor drama of 'No Distance' with its Afro and futurist deep house elements creating for an altogether epic experience that you'll be sure to encounter in a club this year - if they ever reopen. On the flip, Leipzig's Martin Enke, better known for his work as Llewellyn on local label Riotvan, serves up a dreamy rendition under his alias Lake People. This version of the track is so immersive and complex, it will draw you deep into the ether.

Learn 2 Love (5:33)
Untitled 8 (6:05)
Tears Of Joy (7:58)
Stinky (3:49)
Review: Mr G is a real badman. The UK great always goes in hard with this sets and tunes - they're smoky, grainy grooves that lock you in deep for hours on end. For this year's Record Store Day he serves up a third volume of unreleased gold from his vaults. This one kicks off with a heavy sample from 'I Need A Freak' reworked into a late night and trippy tech house framework. 'Untitled 8' ups the ante with punchy and gritty techno loops, 'Tears Of Joy' then twists in some acid and last of all is the best fo the lot. It is tantalisingly short at under four minutes but is a body-shaking broken beat rhythm with heavy bass that makes you move your body right from the off.
