Sunday Post

Nothing but hard and fast techno for you this Sunday Post as the Drop The Lime hangover from last night has yet to be cured. The native New Yorker dropped heavy straightforward Trouble and Bass style technical electro for the entire set. The crowd for the show was a quarter of the size of his original trip to Winnipeg but that did not stop his steamroller track selection that brought the bassline fever to a peak by 1:30 AM. He used a mic two or three times in the night with impromptu indie lyrics during a buildup of some of his new material. I got a couple of sweet stock photos of Luca so look out for those in the future DTL and Curses! posts. (Images Sas Christian)

Coming out at the end of June will be the new full length album from London's autoKratz. Kitsune will once again back the British duo and after seeing the body of work collected in the 'Down In Out In London And Paris' singles comp I was stoked to see a promo copy of the new album. Sticking to the formula that has fomented their success they have a steely abrasive electro style that pumps like an industrial machine and gets humanized by the soft punk vocals.

DL : autoKratz - Past Your Heart


Bart B More is back to club that tech sound to death with the Holland rave breakdowns and Sinden style bassline reverberations. He killed it on the Curses! track 'Deep End' and here he brings me back to my youth with warehouse melodies and drum and bass notes.

DL : Bart B More - So It Goes (A Day In The Life)(original dub)


Our favorite Italian producers Blatta & Inesha never miss a beat and for me they leave the Bloody Beetroots in their electro fidget wake. Always big and minimal at the same time thay never make tracks for the fairweather fans, only the strong need apply. Patience and prudence reign supreme in their sterling efforts. Hip hop mixed with breaks is a formula that can't be beat in my opinion and I knew as soon as I heard his one on the Playboy mix they made for us that they were gonna own 2009/2010.

DL : Blatta & Inesha - Punching (original mix)


More of the same for your next track with the 'Beef Jerky' EP from Germany's Boys Noize artist Housemeister. Always cold and clashy and without that warmth you get from a house inspired track. Stern drums placed over top of minimalistic tribal bass stabs. Introspective listening party track that would only suit a dancefloor that is ready for evil electro.

DL : Housemeister - Who Is That Boys .


Keeping to the theme of dark and dirty its U&A Recordings artist Zodiac Cartel and Pablo Decoder working towards that 'house music with a techno soul'. Underground complexity and fresh crisp arena sized beats are a perfect match for the horror house movie score. Feelings of being chased by Zombies or escaped mental patients arise upon further inspection.

DL : Zodiac Cartel - We Don't Play That (Pablo Decoder remix) (rbr)


Argentina's Douster is a French expat who created this aptly titled EP for Sound Pellegrino which is a little brother label to Institubes. They got Das Glow to add even more weirdness to the already strange EP. Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico seem to be leading the South American revolution.

DL : Douster - For Weirdos Only (Das Glow's Doustin Hoffman remix)

Bonus Material:

DL : Kid Sister - Get Fresh (Alex Gopher remix) .
DL : SebastiAn - Motor (Broke One remix)
DL : Tittsworth - Drunk As Fuck ft The Federation (Meterheads Dark Disco mix) . Buy The EP HERE
