Moving on to some modern techno but still with that old school vibe! such A beautiful track this took me by surprise when I heard it on a Drumcomplex mix. Melodies and hard drums combine to make something unique.
Robert Hood - Nothing Stops Detroit
Classic Detroit vibes from one of the originators of the modern techno sound! stripped back and simple but with maximum impact. Building to those Detroit chord stabs. Sometimes all you need is drums, bass, chords and a handful of SFX!
Reverbs Of The Motor City 3 (Casual Mix) · Obsidiaan
Some more heavily Detroit inspired vibes here! Deep and draws you right in!
Mathias Kaden - Conviction
First heard this on a Carl Cox mix for LNADJ, once again an exercise in simplicity only a few elements but the groove is superb and just works so well!
Rifts, Dajusch – Dubiety - Spandau20
Classic techno sound on this one! wicked melody with the chords that just roll into each other. Absolutely love this sound!
Marcal - Cyclic Voltammetry
Minimal bleepy techno! love it!
Drumcomplex & Frank Sonic - Beatamines - KD RAW 060
Drumcomplex is one of my favourite DJs and his weekly Drumcomplexed show is amazing I tune in every week. It's just my kind of techno and he is also an amazing producer. Frank Sonic is also great. I loved his and Drumcomplex’s mix for Off Recordings so much I listened to it 3 times in a row flying back from Luxembourg then again in my studio when I got back! Actually, a lot of tracks here were discovered on Drumcomplex’s show! This track is great because it takes a vocal and shapes it over the whole track and it morphs and twists into something else. Lovely!
Boo & SPRK - Dynamix
Finishing with a bang! I would describe this track as cheeky the main riff has so much movement and is treated with all kinds of FX to keep it changing!
