Italian-born, London-based DJ and producer David Agrella’s reputation as one of the city’s must-check selectors continues to blossom as he explores the many shades of electronic music through his Bloop radio show and Agrellomatica Records imprint. Fresh from the label’s second release ‘Robot Romance’, supported by the likes of Laurent Garnier, Fred P, Jane Fitz, Jennifer Cardini and Rossko, Agrella returns to close March via his spaced-out house EP ‘Freedom Unfolding’. Remixes are delivered by London favourite N-Gynn (Pleasure Club) known for drawing on left-field, ravey sounds and esteemed German live techno act and Muller Records/Acid Orange boss Beroshima.

Elastic basslines and tumbling percussion unfasten the A-Side with ‘Walking Loud’ as sinister synths convulse around the beat before N-Gynn provides a frisky reshape with sharp snares, golden keys and subtle, loopy vocal samples on a chuggier tip. The eclectic experience continues on the B-Side with title track ‘Freedom Unfolding’ as swinging basslines carry dream-like pads and fluttering samples, while Beroshima’s acid-infused, broken beat rework provides an anthemic finale to the release.

PACK SHOT Robotek Reagan - Taste My Lick - Void Space Institute™

Robotek Reagan ‘Taste My Lick’

Artist: Robotek Reagan
Title: Taste My Lick
Label: Void Space Institute™
Cat. #: VSI-00001
Release Date: 25th March 2022
Format: Digital
Tracklist:
1. Taste My Lick
2. Taste My Lick (Four the Floor Patch)
3. Taste My Lick (Access the Soul Upgrade)

Robotek Reagan’s second release on his own label features the title track from his forthcoming (Can You) Taste My Lick EP with two remixes for different dance floor moods.

VSITM is Reagan’s own new multimedia outlet. It comes after establishing himself as one half of the now-disbanded Superfreq duo Dance Spirit and years of headlining the likes of fabric London, clubs in NYC and festivals like Coachella, Desert Hearts and Piknic Electronik. ‘Taste My Lick’ was the first in a series of new studio experimentations back in summer 2021. They are the first productions from the artist’s new creative space back in Los Angeles away from the peaceful and secluded forest settings of Lake Tahoe.

Says the artist, “The change of scenery and pace was a massive shock to my system, trying to navigate a cacophony of clashing moods, energies, and sounds while trying to make sense of how to reintegrate into my new surroundings, unsure of my future, while working towards peace with a life past lived. As such, venturing out on this brave adventure into the unknown led to creative chaos and viscous lumps of thoughts combining and splitting like the liquid in a lava lamp. The energy of these life experiences found themselves transmuted into the moment in the studio, as reality decrees, Taste My Lick.”

The original version is a shimmering world of sci-fi sonics, with mystic voices obscured by fizzing pads. It’s driven by a flurry of drums and has glassy melodies reflecting light to make for something brilliantly experimental and atmospheric. ‘Taste My Lick’ (Four the Floor Patch) is a dance floor patch for a more urgent and energetic vibe, bristling with trippy vocals, synths, and moody chords. A quirky bassline halfway through lends a punk rock vibe while the intricate percussive grooves keep the body engaged and energized.

Sitting between minimal and deep house, ‘Taste My Lick’ (Access the Soul Upgrade) brings the song into a deeper, transcendent realm. The mood is hopeful and beautiful, opening a portal to the heart so dancers can access their soul and enjoy a smoother, more enjoyable ride. This is one that will make an emotional impact on the crowd.

This is a super fresh new single that builds great anticipation for the full EP to come.

 

PACK SHOT - Mark Broom - 100% Juice Album Sampler - Rekids

Mark Broom ‘100% Juice Album Sampler’

Artist: Mark Broom
Title: 100% Juice Album Sampler
Label: Rekids
Cat. #: REKIDS198
Format: Vinyl / Digital
Release Date: 11th March 2022

UK techno legend Mark Broom returns to Rekids ahead of new album with ‘100% Juice Album Sampler’.

Following the acclaimed ‘Funfzig LP’ on Rekids in 2021 as well as his ‘Mutated Battle Breaks’ series on the techno focussed sub-label Rekids Special Projects, UK stalwart Mark Broom returns to Radio Slave’s Rekids with ‘100% Juice Album Sampler’, a four-track taster for his next album titled ‘100% Juice’, scheduled to be released in April.

Leading the A-side is ‘100% Juice (Sampler Mix)’, a jacked-up take on the album’s title track, with chunky kicks, off-kilter stabs, and crunching claps kickstarting the record. ‘Contigo’ follows, with trippy synths providing a dose of silliness alongside razor-sharp drums. On the flip, ‘Nod To The D’ pays homage to classic Detroit sounds, as light arpeggios and bright synths weave their way through silky pads before closer ‘Spiked’ sees a funk-laden groove take charge as unruly leads flutter atop the jacking groove.

Releasing on labels such as Rekids, M-Plant, and Blueprint, the wildly prolific Broom has consistently been at the forefront of the techno scene for decades with his gritty, groove-based output while, away from the dancefloor, his The Fear Ratio project with James Ruskin continues to win critical acclaim.

Mark Broom ‘100% Juice Album Sampler’ drops via Rekids on 11th March 2020.
