Mike Dehnert to Release New Fachwerk LP

Celebrating the imprint’s 10th anniversary, Mike Dehnert will return to his own Fachwerk label with a new full-length LP, titled Providing Home.

The release follows on from a striking 12” on DJ Koze’s Pampa at the end of 2016, and sees Dehnert explore “new territory with a restrained and subtle sound,” according to the label. “This thoughtful record,” the label continues, “takes elements of modern pop music and extrapolates them with a patience rarely found within the genre itself.”

Ninja Tune’s Technicolour Preps Debut UMFANG LP

UMFANG will make her debut on Ninja Tune‘s Technicolour imprint with Symbolic Use Of Light.

UMFANG—who is a co-founder of Brooklyn’s Discwoman crew and resident at Bossa Nova Civic Club’s Technofeminism monthly—has previously shared analog-based rhythmic excursions via videogamemusic, 1080p, Phinery, and Allergy Season.

The album was recorded on a couple of Boss DR 202s in the main, along with an x0xb0x and Korg Volca FM synth for the occasional “alien noise.” Each track was recorded in live takes, with minimal post-production “only for quick corrections.” Nor was the record made with an album narrative in mind; tracks are a mix of old and new, produced in batches distinct to her frame of mind at the time of recording. “My process is really about sitting down and seeing what happens—it becomes a time-capsule of whatever works from that time period,” she explains.

Acharné ‘Our New Shibuya’

Many may know the producer behind the Acharné moniker as Deepchild, an Australian techno artist with EPs and albums on, among others, Thoughtless Music, Trapez, Future Classic, Goldmin Music, Face To Face, and Caduceus Records. His gig resume is just as impressive, with hours clocked at Berghain, Panoramabar, Movement Detroit, Sonar, Exit Festival, Sydney Opera House Studio, and Decibel Festival.

His latest album under the Acharné moniker, Innocence and Suburbia, is quite removed from what we know as Deepchild. Compared to the dense and tightly honed Neukölln Burning—his latest album as Deepchild—the new album is a more loose and freeform outing, or as he puts it: “a series of moments, restless sketches, incoherent and unresolved half-light.”

Recorded during a turbulent time in his life, Acharneé became his outlet, “a way to try to metabolize this fragmentation.” The album is a raw collection of cuts that act as a diary of sorts to an artist moving through uneasy seas. “It’s an offering to those I love in cities which have meant too much to me. To those who have taken me in. It’s a requiem of sorts too, and a celebration of strange new things to come. A farewell, a ‘thank you so’, and pause of drink in the wonder and ferocity of change.”

In support of the LP, which can be purchased here via Seppuku Records, you can download album cut “Our New Shibuya” via WeTransfer below.

Our New Shibuya

Premiere: Tall Black Guy Remixes Lovebirds Upcoming Single

On Record Store Day, Razor-N-Tape will release Sebastian Doering’s (a.k.a. Lovebirds) latest single, “Icarus” feat. Galliano, with remixes from Tall Black Guy, Moods, and JKriv.

For this release, Razor-N-Tape shines a light on its 45 series with a striking double 7″ package full of relaxed analog soul. Under the Lovebirds moniker, Doering is mostly known for silky-smooth nu-disco and house, but with “Icarus,” he presents the hazy late-night side to his production repertoire with frayed jazzy piano lines and paired-back percussion.

On the remix front, the always reliable Tall Black Guy delivers a ’90s-influenced feel-good cut that oozes sexiness, with an added verse from 80’s Babies thrown in for good measure. On the flip, Moods tweaks the track into a slo-mo stomper with stuttering bass and driving percussion, while Razor-N-Tape’s JKriv strips things back for a sun-tinged interpretation.

The record will drop with stunning full-color artwork, with each mix getting a full-side run, on April 22. In the meantime, you can pre-order the record here, with Tall Black Guy’s remix streaming in full via the player below.
