ROBERT HOOD | Minimal Nation (M-Plant) – 3xLP + CD

Robert Hood‘s Minimal Nation is justly revered as one of the most important and defining techno records ever made. His iconic 1994 masterpiece stripped dance music back to the barest of elements yet retained a loose and dirty funk that many so called ‘minimal’ records lack today.

NASTIKA | Black Sun (Horo) - EP

NASTIKA | Black Sun (Horo) – EP

Formerly releasing exclusively for Pact Infernal‘s label Altar, one half of Pact Infernal steps forward as Nastika with the Black Sun EP.

Nastika takes the fright to the floor with a more direct fashion than his work with Pact. Sinuous, eastern tinged waves wash over percussive stomps on Yajna and Sati, while the matching Black Sun tunes mark out a unique stylistic territory somewhere between techno and mysticism.

With Black Sun, Nastika further refines his crucial musical accompaniment to the indelible works of Pact Infernal.

THE LOTUS EATERS | Desatura (Stroboscopic Artefacts) - 2xLP/CD

THE LOTUS EATERS | Desatura (Stroboscopic Artefacts) – 2xLP/CD

Lucy and Rrose, now coming together as The Lotus Eaters, have established themselves separately as techno artists who are just as comfortable operating in the uncharted area of experimental music. Running their own labels (Stroboscopic Artefacts and Eaux, respectively), they have gained a cult following, both influencing and challenging the direction of techno.

With Desatura, they explore themes of physical density, emptiness, and space, creating sonic objects which can be rotated and viewed from multiple perspectives. Eschewing the typical instrumentation of techno, the duo use synthesized sound and feedback as fundamental sources to generate both textural and percussive elements.
