Deep Detroit influenced techno from young German producer
Break SL, taken from his
City Wasteland album Trombone is a dark affair with it's droney intro offset with some wonderful string arpeggios and tribal twinkles.
Sure to be eclipsed over time by Perlon's next release,
Shackleton's Three EP's, Dutch producer
San Proper nonetheless shows us where it's at with his debut for the German label. House music at its primal finest!

It's well documented around here my love for
Ryan Davis' productions. This progressive tech house gem of his has just been featured on
Ivan Smagghe's compilation for
Live At Robert Johnson, following in the footsteps of Chloe and Prins Thomas... all essential of course. Sticking with the Live At Robert Johnson label is this taken from a 12" earlier on in the year by
Plein Soleil.
I think i've posted something by
Bernard Szajner previously and his work in the duo Proroky, this track is from his (Hypothetical) Prophets project, pure cold wave.

Sci-Fi-O-RamaSuper limited vinyl only release from earlier this year on the mysterious Geheimtipp label. Feels kinda cliche already using the whole nameless approach, but when the music is as good as this it really doesn't matter one bit. Amazing.

Music For Espionage is an essential 12" from
Dompteur Mooner, described as dark and sinister avantgarde electro - disco edits. I really am in love with this release. Le Coq Rouge features a sample as heard in Riley Reinhold & Steve Barnes' brilliant track Odyssey and then Sister James is a really dark, droning edit of a Sonic Youth track. Other edits on the release include Pink Floyd's Another Brick In The Wall and a sublime rework of Franz Ferdinand's Michael, really essential listening. Dompteur Mooner was also responsible for
this.

Signed to
Ben Klock's Klockworks imprint is
DVS1 and his superb 12". Stripped down techno at it's uncompromising finest.
You know you can always trust Ostgut Ton's output, even more so when it's
Levon Vincent producing. Certainly one of the tracks of the year that really sums up for me the direction the forward thinkers in techno have been heading. Epic.
More Stilove4music edits for you. DJ
Rahaan this time taking on
The Flirts 1982 hit Calling All Boys. Super loopy dancefloor prepped edit.
