Nonplus 035 passes the torch to Finnish producer Samuli Kemppi who’s built a solid back catalogue over the last 15 years and in that time has also become a pioneer of electronic music in Helsinki. His radio show Deep Space Helsinki (Alongside Juho) developed into one of the cities most popular club nights and also into his shared record label DSH. His debut on Nonplus brings us 3 slices of no nonsense deep space techno. More

SAMULI KEMPPI played live twice at Suicide Circus, and since his energetic sound really fit well with our club, we started talking to each other about a release on our DARK SERIES imprint. So here we go now, after releases on labels such as Prologue, Mote Evolver and Perc Trax, SAMULI KEMPPI now is ready to rock your boat with three tracks on our label, which define a very particular sound of their own. LAST DAY ON EARTH brings Samuli’s apocalyptic vision to the dancefloors. Dark hisses, well scaped spaces and a hookline with the pull of a spacecraft make up for a track that with no doubt will be one of the techno anthems of the next months. A killer of a track! On the B-side SPACING has similar sound aesthetics as Last Day On Earth, but comes along more playful whereas CALLING approaches the apocalyptic theme from a very different angle. Bleepy synths over a banging beat let you think of laser shots in the dark, haunting and scary.

Samuli Kemppi may have begun in warm house climes as the duo Sam & Gigi, but he has since found his niche and fame sound tracking the deep and icy black recesses of space. 2009's Komisch debut, 'Deep Space Helsinki EP', birthed the galactic signature that would come to define his solo techno output for labels like Prologue, Mote-Evolver and Perc Trax, meanwhile cementing his stylistic meanderings to a single, albeit flexible, narrative. 'Parallax Of One Second EP' is Samuli Kemppi's third outing on M_Rec Ltd, after the full 'Cyclic Model EP' and remix inclusion on Ben Gibson's 'More Than Milk', and sees the Fin plundering the astronomic theme once again with stellar sci-fi precision.
On the A-side: 'Extragalactic' opens with swirling technoid vistas, on a wonky robo-dance floor in a future imaged long ago. Warbling chimes and tweeting astro-creatures continue to plague 'Astrometric Precision', bleating at one another on our serene shuttle through the cosmos. The B-side then takes a decided plunge with tougher piston sounds and grittier textures on 'More Than Parsec' as our journey becomes more wild-eyed, concluding in the keyed radio-distress signals and itchy hats of 'Less Than Planck'. I guess we're never getting home wherever that may be, but this new universe isn't so bad after all. More

Ever since his classic 'Vangel' release on Ostgut Ton we have been huge fans of Samuli's sound. Needless to say we are very proud to have him on board. Early support from Yvan Smagghe, DVS1 More

With a techno career stretching nearly a decade, Finland’s Samuli Kemppi is a natural choice for the fourth edition of THEMA’s continuing Chronicle series. His intensely rhythmic, futuristic style has been making its mark across Europe since 2004, but it was really four years later, when he was picked up by Ostgut Ton, Prologue, and Kosmisch, that the world found out the true impact of his sound. Since then he’s enjoyed his strongest support from the last of these imprints and, even more importantly, from Luke Slater’s powerhouse Mote-Evolver, a go-to since its inception in 2006 for the freshest sounds techno has to offer. Following the summer launch of his own Deep Space Helsinki label, we are proud to announce Kemppi’s Chronicle debut with Voyager, an EP of deep, science fiction sounds backed by intense beats. Characteristically for the producer, there’s no waiting to unleash the barrage of elastic basslines and layered percussion we receive in Transmission. The steadily-thickening synthesizer textures grow throughout its length, but so does the density of the drum patterning; it makes for an unstoppable catapult launch into alien territory to start the EP. A2 Horizon is more grim and heads-down, an exploration of the cosmic void between galaxies which gradually falls into accelerating orbit around a distant body. B1’s Beacon may move similarly, but it starts with a clearer trajectory and a more hopeful end point in keeping with its title. His signature busy drum machines are at their most linear and smooth here, and rather than disorient the listener they provide propulsion for the mission. The unforgiving rhythmic jack of Echoes has strong gravity, and an optimistic melody gradually swells from uneasier beginnings to finish the voyage. To ease down listeners from the depths of this dense EP, we’ve included an ambient interlude as the closer; starting off with sci-fi themes, it disintegrates into a haze of woozy echoes and rhythmic bursts of static before simply fading into the ether. Taken together, these five pieces clearly chart the continuing outbound path of Chronicle and Kemppi to the interstellar regions of techno’s growing universe.

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

Children of Tomorrow back with new Techno EP by Antigone & Rodremix More

Its been a year now since we saw the last release from Children Of Tomorrow. Only three releases old, the French imprint adhere very much to, quality over quantity. With Terence Dixon, Mathias Kaden, Emmanuel Ternois, dOP and D'Julz having all featured on '001' and '002', last years third instalment was provided by Safari Electronique boss Arnaud Le Texier. The success of his "Ingredients" ep, with its accompanying Jonas Kopp remix, saw the label build upon its already glittering array of supporters with the likes of Marcel Dettmann, Mayaan Nidam, Cassy, Kenny Larkin, DVS1, Rolando, Troy Pierce and Ewan Pearson all lending their love over the first trio of releases. So to 004 and again we find Arnaud Le Texier stepping up and this time he's joined by fellow Safari artist Antonio De Angelis as the duo team up to present their "Hybrid" ep. Three choice cuts of devastating techno that range from the intergalactic groove and kick of lead cut "Switchover" to the beautifully deep, string-laden and yet mighty "Bandit", before rounding out with the powerful glitchy sounds of "Hybrid." Its "Hybrid" thats receives the remix treatment from Ryan Elliott. The Spectral Sound and Ostgut Ton man turns in a blistering rework, and whilst the 'Berghain' tag is often misused, the Detroit native's residency at the club makes him the perfect and practised craftsman of the sound.
