Kyle Geiger isn t your average DJ/producer. From his marathon sets at legendary clubs like Berghain to his powerfully pounding but yet sensationally melodic productions, there are plenty of notable musical accomplishments on his resume. When you scratch the surface though, what you find is a genuinely humble human with a true passion for techno and a love for DJing the kind of grateful joy you find in those who come from small Midwestern towns in the U.S., and find themselves relocated to an area where techno is so widely consumed: decades of experience collecting and programming music for some of the toughest crowds to be finally rewarded with chances to play in venues that have carried the music to where it is today. We are beyond happy to have this true legend and gentle giant on MATERIA with his awe-inspiring 4-tracker Thirty Seven EP More

Kyle Geiger returns to Droid Recordings for a three-track suite of techno and rhythmic experiments, Jupiter Storm. A1(Jupiter, Hydrogen Edit) builds from a rumbling kick, slowly constructing a space of delayed tones and filtered noisse pressure aimed at the dancefloor. B1(Mars) takes things for a truly unexpected turn, borrowing some of Jupiter’s sonic language and reformulating a triple-metered groove with waves of noise and distortion. The title track, Jupiter Storm(B2) brings the full kick back into the picture riding the Mars rhythms against the standard kick for a track that’s driving and infectious.

Following Cubera's 2011 debut with the Imperial EP, Kyle Geiger embraces a new era for 2012 with the Mimetic Desire EP--further establishing his fresh and uncompromising approach to techno, with his blend of traditional low-end strength and thoughtful melodies. The feature cut, "Mimetic Desire," uniquely intertwines thick, defined bass with Geiger's signature percussion, and most notably, a searing hook that will easily find its place in the rising, peak-time mindset of a twisted dancefloor--while simultaneously providing just enough delicacy to successfully march through the early sunrise hours.. The original edit gives a more full on interpretation with a greater emphasis on the melody side of the track, while the warehouse edit pulls the sounds to the front that are crucial for bouncing off the concrete during the mayhem which always ensues late into the night when big sound meets concrete rooms. In the event the dancefloor should need some room to breathe, Final Chapter gives a 8 minute journey weaving in and out of hypnotic synthesis and soundscapes alike, while never forgetting the low end that Geiger loves so dearly. Up last is an added synth tool that captures all the aspects of the original that DJ's have been raving about, while allowing flexibility to build off onto it, as well as working perfectly for winding things down at the end of the night.
