Faster Lines Up Sonath EP

Faster will release a new EP on French label Sonath.

Suciu Laurentiu (a.k.a Faster) is a Romanian DJ-producer. He started music production at the age of 16. In a short time, he’s released on labels as Acmé, Drumma, Hourglass, and The Rabbit Hole, and made a name for himself as one of the best-kept secrets of the Romanian scene.

With two sides for two tracks, the disc “reflects the ocean’s bad-tempered nature,” the label explains.

Tracklisting

B. Granussi

Almost Standing/Granussi will land in December on vinyl only, with clips streaming below.

Carl Craig Added to Comunité Festival 2018

Comunité Festival has added Carl Craig to its lineup for the upcoming 2018 edition.

As an essential part piece of Detroit’s second generation of techno producers, Carl Craig shouldn’t need much of an introduction. Throughout the years, he has created the acclaimed Planet E Communications label, landing release slots alongside Kevin Saunderson, Alton Miller, Moodymann, and many more.

He joins a lineup already featuring Rhadoo, James Holden & The Animal Spirits (Live Band), Lawrence, and many more.

This year’s edition takes place from January 5 to 6 in Tulum, Mexico, with more information here.

Adam Marshall Next on Maeve

Adam Marshall is next up on Maeve, the label of Mano Le Tough, The Drifter, and Baikal.

Adam Marshall has long been an artist admired by the Maeve label. From featuring in early carnations of Mano Le Tough and The Drifter’s Passion Beat parties to producing tracks like “North at Night” and “Vamping,” Adam has always been an artist that all three of the Maeve founders were eager to work with. Over the course of the last 12 months and through much back and forth, a four-track package finally emerged that all parties now feel ready to release.

We’re told that the Low Poly Nature EP “features several guises of underground electronic music and in parts pushes their boundaries.”

It lands after Mano Le Tough’s Arganol ‘N’ All EP.

Tracklisting

A1. Core Dub
A2. House Shipping (Jammed mix)
B1. Illusions of House
B2. Epsic Basic Drops

Low Poly Nature EP lands today in vinyl and digital formats.

Lachlan McFeely Bolt Shares Tripped-Out Video

On November 17, Astral Black released the new album from Glasgow artist Lachlan McFeely Bolt.

Titled Still, the LP reportedly finds Bolt focusing “more on feeling or aesthetic, rather than technical prowess”—although, the production on the record is noticeably accomplished and impressive. Across the nine tracks, Bolt flows through a range of beat-driven cuts that place atmosphere at the forefront, from melodic pop-infused beats to more complex and cerebral outings.

With the release of the album, Bolt has also shared a video for standout cut “2 Scared 2 Say,” an anthemic jungle track that is paired with tripped-out visuals of a night out.

You can pick up the LP on limited-edition cassette and digitally here, with the video streaming via the player above.

Premiere: Listen to a Haunting New Remix From Artefakt

Early next month, Brothers Black will return to Voxnox Records with a six-track EP, titled Marianas.

The release will feature four tracks on the vinyl edition, with two originals and two remixes, from Berlin-based duo Artefakt and Invite Choice’s Invite. The digital release will also contain two bonus tracks from Brothers Black, along with the vinyl cuts. Across the entire release, Voxnox once again present a sophisticated set of techno cuts, ranging from the rolling grooves of Brothers Black to Artefakt’s haunting atmospheres and Invite’s tense, synth-heavy outing.

Marianas is set to drop on December 6 on vinyl and January 5 and can be pre-ordered here, with Artefakt’s remix streaming in full via the player below.

Look Mum No Computer Gives an Introduction to Modular Synthesis

Back in September, Point Blank hosted a fantastic live modular set from Look Mum No Computer. As a follow up, Point Blank has asked him to detail his processes and sprawling setup, while giving tips on building your own modular rack.

In the video, the artist also known as Sam Battle gives a short lesson in the history of synthesisers, before diving into his homemade setup—which includes oscillators, filters, envelope generators, and analog drums—while offering insight into effects that things like resonance, waveform shape, and voltage have on the sounds that can be made.

You can watch the video via the player above, with more on Point Blank here.

Leon Revol ‘Lou Bet Sou’ (Jad & The Remix)

The fourth release on Beats Of No Nation (BONN) arrives from Bordeaux artist Leon Revol.

Titled Lou Bet Sou, the EP fits perfectly with Beats Of No Nation’s ethos, presenting a collection of raw idiosyncratic house music that touches on disco and more beat-driven styles. Over the years, Revol’s music has popped up on labels like Kolour, Secret Reels, Future Disco, and Monologues, and this latest firmly places him as one of the most exciting newcomers in house music.

In support of the release, Beats Of No Nation has offered up a remix of the EP’s title track from label boss Jad & The, who reits the original to a smooth-as-silk broken-beat framework.

You can pick the EP up here, with the remix available below.

Modular Rotterdam Turns Five with Ben Klock, Job Jobse, Bicep, and More

Rotterdam-based organization Modular is turning five this year and will celebrate the milestone with a big celebration on December 23 featuring artists such as Ben Klock, Bicep (live), and Job Jobse.

Modular is a well-known event organization in the Rotterdam nightlife. In the past five years, they’ve grown from a small club event to a respected organization with an extensive event portfolio.

2017 was a busy year for the team. In addition to Modular Festival, which took place for the second time, Modular organized a Factory Edition, a beach party, and a special performance by Colin Benders at Kino. Also, the first edition of NachtiBAR (a collaboration with the Leipzig-based organization Nachtdigital) took place last spring in the infamous nightclub BAR. Modular is finishing off the year with their five-year anniversary, at the Maassilo, on December 23.

The boys from Bicep are no strangers to the Modular crowd, and they will play at Modular for the fifth time. The Irish duo released their long-awaited album in September and will be bringing their new live-set to the event. Modular resident Job Jobse will also be part of the anniversary. While at the same time, Berlin-based Ben Klock will close off the Maassilo’s main room. Another Modular regular, Philou Louzolo will play b2b with Amsterdam-based Max Abysmal. Kobosil, Deniro, and Rotterdam talent Stranger finish the lineup.

In addition to the musical program, a brand new project called ModulART, will be launched during the event. This project will showcase the works of Rotterdam-based artists and creative minds.
