Collection: Advanced Vinyl Search

The fourth from Moving Pressure, the label Rene Wise founded around the dialogue between soundsystem music and the body. Four tracks of precision-built, subtly psychedelic techno from Obscur, all between 133 and 136. Deep minimalism with the detail worked hard — functional across a long stretch rather than immediate.

The sixth from Supercinema, the southern Italian label Graziano Umile and Alfredo Mazzilli built around a film that doesn't exist: a cold December night in 1977, two teenagers in a Brooklyn basement building synthesizers to recreate the sound of the cosmos. Four tracks from Deluka, held between 133 and 136,...

Four tracks from Decka, co-founder of Frameworks with Roseen. Jack Wallis came up in Bristol on dubstep, punk and UK techno — audible in his early records for Darwin's SPE:C — moved to Berlin in 2017, and has since released through Semantica, Token, Tar Hallow and KEY Vinyl, several sold...

The second part of Planned Obsolescence, and all three tracks are other people's readings of Emmanuel: Chontane's 1995 Remix of "Lost In Translation", Regent on "Illusion Of Choice", OFF / GRID on "New Media". 140 to 144 throughout. Emmanuel runs ARTS himself, which makes handing the whole record over the...

Three originals and an Alan Fitzpatrick remix of the title track. Frederik Laaser has run The Reason Y since 2015 — northern Germany, then Schwerin, then Berlin, with the record collection paid for before anything else — and builds for intensity over subtlety. 133 to 140 throughout.

Four tracks from Introversion, a drummer first and it shows: breakbeat elements worked into dark 90s-inspired techno, with trance chords underneath. "Tesseract" lifts to 144 between two 140s; "Laeddis" opens at the same.

Five tracks from 1Morning, out of Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley and now based in New York, tying the golden era of techno and house to something contemporary. "A Bastards Work Is Never Done" and "Hello, is anyone home" open at 140; "In This Sun" and "Just Can't Get Enough"...

Four tracks from Ben Reymann, loopy and repetitive with the groove constant underneath. "Rundown" eases to 137 with 140s either side; "Feel The Funk" is fastest at 144. Berlin has been the constant in a route that ran through Cologne, New York, Italy and the Netherlands.
