Time To Express’ SP-X joins Rekids Special Projects with four punishing techno cuts this September. Little is known about mysterious producer SP-X. After a string of quality releases on Komisch, Time To Express, and PROJEKTS, the Brussels-based artist has garnered a strong following for his rolling techno sound. The enigmatic producer now joins Matt Edwards’ Rekids Special Projects roster, following on from releases by DJ Spider, Jon Hester, DJ Deep, FBKand Dustin Zahn among others. An amalgamation of metallic hits, powerful drums and plucky arpeggios commence the package in ‘Dystopian Lotus’ before the fast paced ‘Breaths Of Separation’ offers a rumbling low-end, frenzied atmospherics and cosmic chords. ‘The Orbiter’ delivers distorted top lines and a thundering kick on the flip, backed by mysterious sirens and resonant synth blips until the package rounds off with ‘Desire Of Invisibility’, a high-octane finish with sharp, organic percussion and a vacillating sub alongside stereo delayed stabs.

Komisch goes back in time for the story behind its fifteenth release. Alpha Code is the project of a Milanese producer who was inspired by the emerging techno scene in Italy during the early 90s. Seeking to translate the mind-bending sounds of Lory D, ACV and Sandro Galli, he bought some basic equipment and started to experiment. But just as he was about to start releasing techno records in 1996, he was offered the chance to script a small film in Hollywood. That job saw him moving to LA, where he now works full-time as a soundtrack writer and producer. By chance, on a recent visit back to Milan to see his parents, he was going through some belongings and found some dust-covered demos from early 1996.
Inspired by the raw techno sounds on the demo, he returned to his studio and created 'Brave New World' and 'Kazohinia', two driving tracks that resonate with insistent analogue bleeps, firing percussion, swirling synths and brooding bass pulses. This is the first time that Alpha Code's music has been available on vinyl and Komisch is proud to put out tracks by one of Italy's past masters.

Finnish techno producer Samuli Kemppi returns to Komisch for his third release. Leading the charge against malfunctioning computer systems and faceless corporations on this killer three-track EP is ‘Escape’. A surging, rippling bassline and heavy claps provide the basis for insistent bleeps and a surging, enveloping chord sequence that dispells even the most malevolent enemy. Next up is ‘Hostile’, which follows a similar approach. Clipped drums and hissing percussion are mixed with an acid-spiked bassline and a sinister synth riff. It’s a more sinister take on Samuli’s big room techno and is sure to appeal to those who like it darker and deeper. The EP ends with ‘System’. Kemppi’s razor sharp percussion and tough beats are audible once again as he juggles bubbling acid bass licks with frequency-shifting tones and eerie synth riffs. Let ‘Quadrant’ help you escape the mundane realities of every day life! More

With releases on labels like Ostgut, Time 2 Express and
Prologue, the Finnish producer is one of the leading lights
in the new wave of European techno. Samuli gets straight
down to business on ‘Orbiter’. Based on chugging,
insistent drums, the listener is led to a place where
repetitive droning sounds, pitched up percussion and
robotic bleeps dominate. If ever there was a soundtrack
lose your mind to in a dark room, then ‘Orbiter’ is it. ‘Metal
Space’ is more considered, but it’s no less effective. More

Komisch is a new underground label covering the broad
areas of techno and house music, run by the elusive DJ
Komisch. Primarily aimed at the dance floor, the label,
whose name in German means ‘strange’, ‘unusual’, ‘odd’
or even ‘unconventional’, will nonetheless aim to showcase

established names, Komisch will focus on teasing new
sounds and ideas from techno and house that’s rooted in
Chicago, Detroit and Berlin. The label will put an emphasis
on high-quality design, mastering/production and vinyl,

revolution. More
