Premiere: Hear a Track From Richy Ahmed’s New EP for Strictly Rhythm

Following on from his 2014 release on Lee Foss and Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations label—the aptly titled Sneaky Acid—UK producer and DJ Richy Ahmed will release his latest EP, Can’t See You, via internationally renowned imprint Strictly Rhythm.

Can’t See You will be Richy’s third EP and for the release, Richy was given the choice to remix any track from the entire Strictly Rhythm catalogue and the Paradise resident chose Logic’s 1990 classic “The Warning.” Opening with his trademark driving percussion and a heavy, low-slung bassline, Richy refits the original vocal, interspersing it between rolling drum fills throughout the tracks run time.

Can’t See You will see release on July 13, with Richy’s remix of “The Warning” streaming in full below; along with his upcoming tour dates.

Aphex Twin (a.k.a Richard D. James), returns to his AFX moniker this August for his first vinyl release since the Warpmart exclusive of a shared record between AFX and LFO in September of 2005. That record was limited to 2000 copies, and Richard hasn’t released any vinyl records under this guise since unloading 11 editions of Analord on Rephlex Records that same year. Now AFX is back, and this time, the record will see release on Bleep.com. orphaned deejay selek 2006-2008 is available for pre-order via Bleep, the British online independant music sector of Warp.

You can listen to the song ‘serge fenix Rendered 2‘ for free on the Bleep website, and get an instant download of the song when you pre-order the release. The new release will come in a couple of different formats, including vinyl, CD, and .FLAC.

We discovered a playlist of the album by digging around on the Warp Records website. You can check out what we found by clicking here.

  • AFX – serge fenix Rendered 2
  • AFX – dmx acid test
  • AFX – oberheim blacet1b
  • AFX – bonus EMT beats
  • AFX – simple slamming b 2
  • AFX – midi pipe1c sds3time cube/klonedrm
  • AFX – NEOTEKT72
  • AFX – r8m neotek beat

With a full release date of August 21st, you can bet that this record will be in demand and will likely sell out of stock quickly. Buy a pre-order copy now on the Bleep website by clicking here.

The events will centre around a combination of sound and visuals that express the dark and psychedelic concept behind the label. The crowd will be enveloped by installations, each event will be a collaboration between an art collective and or arts students, keeping the ideas and approach at the forefront of London’s creative scene.

Dark Matters kicks off with the Fearful Stay EP from label boss Amirali.

Fearful Stay EP will be released on vinyl on July 6 and digitally on the August 3. The melodic complexities and hypnotic vocals in Amirali’s original mix are re-worked, securing this EP as a confident and stunning debut.

Premiere: Hear an Exclusive Mix From Truncate

LA-based DJ and producer David Flores (a.k.a. Audio Injection) kicked off his Truncate moniker back in 2011 to focus on “the deeper, more raw side of techno,” with his releases receiving support from some of techno’s biggest artists, including Modeselektor, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, and Len Faki.

Ahead of his performance at Croatia’s Dimensions Festival—where he’ll play alongside Juan Atkins, Underground Resistance, Âme, Boddika, and Four Tet—Truncate has supplied us with an exclusive, hour-long mix of hip-hop, house, slamming techno and low-fi oddities, which you can hear in full below.

TOYS “Golden Line (A Theory Remix)”

Parisians electronic duo Paul Prier and Bastien Doremus (a.k.a. TOYS) released the Golden Line EP on Fairtrack/Caroline last April. Puling inspiration from Space, Kevin Saunderson, Pink Floyd, and Jay Dee, the pair fuse pop elements with synthesizers, hip-hop and house. Featured on a deluxe edition of the EP is British producer A Theory‘s remix of “Golden Line.” Opening with floating, ethereal pads, A Theory keeps the original vocals front and center, laying them smoothly on top of a bed of deep, throbbing bass and a plethora of synth stabs and muted, loose percussion. The deluxe version of Golden Line is available here, with A Theory’s remix available for free below.
