The Vienna based label TRUST is a very unique underground imprint speaking forthright to the avant-garde of the electro niche. Indeed, their no nonsense releases are focused on the weird electronic music (related to Detroit sounds) and produced in that truthful futuristic way. Therefore some listeners feel confused by that unusual aesthetic however their release fusing abstract design & sophisticated tunes are really tasty breaking out of old electro patterns in order to push this type of music to its high-level; and all that with the help of finest & regular producers.
After the 20th release signed by STINGRAY313, it’s actually the UK Electro Break producer CLATTERBOX who returns on TRUST Label with a new ep entitled Semi-Automatic. This project contains 4 killer tracks, 2 original mixes and 2 remixes : the 1st produced by CREEPY AUTOGRAPH an alias of the talented JIMMY EDGAR & the 2nd remix is signed by LOK44 aka DANIEL POLIG (who runs Pomelo Records). Each tune of this ep makes sense dropping some hybrid vibes with a singular kind of groove and about CLATTERBOX, he seems to be in his best creative ability. Therefore the “Semi-Automatic” vinyl is simply another outstanding release coming from this label. Recommended!

The dark electrohead DVS NME has just self-released his 2nd album entitled “Metastasis” via Bandcamp website. This new project is clearly more introspective and therefore more sentimental than his last EP. DVS NME designs a kind of robotic spleen with great shades of grey. His productions keep a minimalist & purist vision of electro in the legacy of KRAFTWERK along with this cold & dark ambient reminding the JOHN CARPENTER’s touch. The “Metastasis” album contains 11 tracks with a constant relevance (a special mention for 2 mind blowing tracks : ‘Solitary’ & ‘Disappeared ‘). This mysterious project is actually the best DVS NME album. Recommended!

CULTIVATED ELECTRONICS is one of the most respectable underground electronic imprint producing slowly but surely some solid projects, released every times in vinyl. On their catalog, you can find some timeless masterpieces like the tracks “From Below” by JUNQ, the remix of SIGNAL TYPE “In Abyss” by GOD OF TECHNOLOGY, and the recent remix of SCAPE ONE “Time Falls” by DYNAREC,… The 10th release is out now, it’s an EP signed by an old timer from Holland : SONAR BASE. His project entitled ‘We Attack at Dawn‘ contains 4 spellbinding tracks (including a remix by SYNC 24). The SONAR BASE‘s production are dark & still connected to the mid 90′s electro-techno sounds also along with that specific acid bassline (dear to this label). Like a good horror movie soundtrack, this EP will send you shivers up and down your spine. Recommended!

One more time MR PAUL BLACKFORD drops an other solid project! Following his latest killer album on Binalog Records, PAUL BLACKFORD has just released a new EP on the TUDOR ACID’s imprint : Tudor Beats‘. This ep entitled “Dream Sequence” is a great invitation to float into the galaxy, into this special mood very representative of this producer. PAUL BLACKFORD’s music is a sweet blend of spacey Electro, melodic (UK) Drum’n'Bass and (Detroit) accelerated Techno. This EP features 2 original tracks and 2 remixes of the title track by SCREWTEC (BlackRed) and TUDOR ACID which are both not bad but a level behind the powerful original. It’ a real pleasure to see PAUL BLACKFORD keeps saving the underground music in its original form : groundbreaking, abstract, timeless, not too cleaned, truthful, fascinating… Recommended!

The epic Drum’n'Bass METALHEADZ catalogue is for many different music lovers arranged in a specific place on the vinyl shelf & in a brain cell.
It’s easy to me to remember the 1st time i had the chance to discover this label. I was painting a wall, and the sound was totally appropriated for the vaporous mood coming from the colored aerosols particles. (Only after i understood the producer & co-runner of METALHEADZ named GOLDIE is also the GOLDIE from the early UK graffiti scene…). I guess each fan of this imprint are able to remember what was he doing when he was listening and how it changes his vision on the music.

The futuristic Duo LAZER SWORD has just released their second album entitled “Memory” on MonkeyTown Records, the sub-label of 50 Weapons. In this one, LAZER SWORD switches again their kind of production exploring the music style by style in a free continuous way. Indeed, they started with a debut album mixing Hip-Hop, Dubstep & Electro and then LOW LIMIT & LANDO KAL released a couple of EP oriented Glitch, Post-Dubsteb, Bass music, Jack House,…to finally released the “Memory” album mixing Electronic, Post-Dubstep & Jit (Ghetto bass). This new amazing project is actually an U.F.O floating between Hype & Undergound and should talk to open minds. The title “Memory” isn’t an accident. Actually is pretty honest because if you put this album under a microscope you will find many appreciated references to the Post-Future music …from the past & the present.

First of all, the cover reminds CYBOTRON : ‘Clear’ the one with the guy crossing the wall of time. About the music here’s some influences : the great Hi-Tek & sophisticated sounds featuring along the album remind the Detroit vibes related to URBAN TRIBE; the mix of sweet vocals with the cold & accelerated sounds was already developed by producers like DJ RASHAD, MACHINEDRUM (and URBAN TRIBE too); the production control on bass & on the echo near to the post-dubstep sounds are a bit similar to INSTRA:MENTAL. However at the end it isn’t a copy, LAZER SWORD really success to create his own specific signature during this new experience.
Their vibes are fresh, mental, sexy, hybrid and very well produced (as their usual). About the featurings, it isn’t be a surprise to to see JIMMY EDGAR & MACHINEDRUM who are musically close to LAZER SWORD and producing also in the legacy of early Electro. The entire album is very solid & smartly thought to be enjoyed on the dancefloor and also at home. As so far, it’s easily the best electronic album of 2012 . Hotly Recommended!

For those who don’t know already, ADDISON GROOVE is the side project of the Bristol based dubstep producer HEADHUNTER acclaimed by many different type of music lovers for his excellent 2nd E.P ‘Work it / Sexual’ after disturbed the scene with his tune ‘Footcrab’ in 2010 & 2011. Now, ADDISON GROOVE is back with a debut album on the rising label Fifty Weapons. Featuring 13 new cuts very well produced, this anticipated album entitled ‘TRANSISTOR RYTHM‘ is not really oriented to be listened in one shot but more to be understand as a candy box with some good tunes to pick up and to drop into your player (or Into your dj set). The groove, the bass and the great 808 sounds along with some vocals are still the main ingredients of the catchy AG’s production. As most european producers involved in ghetto bass music, it isn’t wrong to say he’s pretty stranger to the Chicago way of life. However ADDISON GROOVE clearly makes a real difference on this album by sucessfully applying the knowledge he has gained from his personal researches about the original rythms of drums produced in the old african tribes. Those ones remain the basement of what people call currently the “Juke music”.

The Spain based label MARS FREQUENCY (run by ROBERT COSMIC) has just released their 2nd compilation entitled «Mars Defenders» featuring 27 underground electro producers around the galaxy. This type of independant & annual project is always welcome to understand where the original electronica (in the legacy of KRAFTWERK) is going to go, especially during a symbolic year like 2012. Obviously, the dynamic seems more robotic than ever with some syncopated beats, some galactic melodies, and a lot of menacing sequences along with some robot bleeps… Therefore the «Mars Defenders» compilation will speak well to the cardiogram of electro purists

Here’s the entire list of electro producers involved on this compilation:
KOOVA – FLECK ESC – PIP WILLIAMS – MEKA – DOWNROCKS – DJ HASH – PROTOTYPE – DEEMPHASIS – CODY COMMANDO – 808 SQUAD – MIKE ASH – DVS NME – R21 – REPLICANTE NORMAN – MICRO.CONTROL.UNIT – MIDI K84 – ROBERT COSMIC – MAGIK.BITUM – MR HASELBAIN – INHUMAN DESIGNED – THE OUTSIDER – SHANN-X – NEGOCIUS MAN – DATACRASHROBOT – JUNO LAZERMACHINE – VAGON BREI

After an excellent debut E.P (‘Wrowreck’) released in 2010 on ∆ICASEA label, the producer CYGNUS is back on the same imprint with a fresh album entitled «Cybercity Z-ro». This project features 12 spacey electro tracks along with some lovely dub sounds. To have access to the final level of «Cybercity Z-ro», CYGNUS invites you at a virtual journey into an oniric world. In this one, you will meet some dwellers named the ‘Icaseans’ who are also the spiritual neighbours of an old submerged civilisation named the ‘Drexciyans’… Just kidding, to seduce the music don’t really need to be translate by some images or some words and the CYGNUS production speaks itself but everyone could imagine his own (abstract) scenario according to this stimulating project. All that to say, the amazing atmospheric vibe of «Cybercity Z-ro» album would remind you the spirit of the DREXCIYA’s «7 Storms series» that is always an appreciated reference when a producer succeed to maintain also his own signature and that’s the case for CYGNUS. So if like us you love to swim in your thoughts from morning till evening, this solid album should be the host of your electronic daydreaming. Recommended!
