New Yorker electronic producer DJ Spider is back on Itay's Out-ER with a muggy, abstract techno release 'Human Erosion Field EP', similarly to its debut 'V EP', released in September 2017 and produced in featuring with his longtime friend Phil Moffa.
Italian label Out-ER presents its twenty-sixth release continuing to explore the diverse musical path between house, techno and experimental electronic - which appears in most cases on Out-ER's sub-label Pregnant Void. 'Human Erosion Field EP' otherworldly showcases both a radiant take on electronic as well as gloomy and wild-eyed pieces, an aesthetic approach for which DJ Spider has been most known in the scene. Overlooking to the style of the tracks, the release does contain a sinister mood and a dense, solid sense of groove overall, a typical recurring feature of the producer's previous outputs. More

We had a little pause on our release schedule, but without further delay we present with pleasure the next bomb by our good friend, DJ Spider! Thema 46 was hatched from someone so deeply ingrained in the underground that he barely needs an introduction. From his RA "label of the month" featured imprint Plan B Recordings, to his thoroughly played productions on labels such as Rekids, Killekill and The Trilogy Tapes, DJ Spider has been a mainstay on the murkiest, most disorderly dance floors for years. His sound is characterized by disjointed elements lurching around in a off-kilter yet magnetic way that forces you to move in ways you didn't know you could. From the hell scorched, pitch bent echoes of "The Final Revolution" to the lo-fi groove antics of "Distress Signal", DJ Spider proves once again that no one can do it as perfectly weird as he can.

New York’s DJ Spider returns to Rekids with four murky vinyl-only cuts this November. A highly respected label owner, DJ Spider is well known for helming esteemed imprints like Plan B, Sub Level Sounds and BTU music. As a producer he has made appearances on the likes of The Trilogy Tapes, BleeD, KilleKill and Vanguard Sound!, whilst last year saw him make his debut on Rekids. Returning to the imprint, the American artist follows DJ Deep, Jon Hester and FBK for the fourth outing in the Rekids Special Projects vinyl series. Opening with ‘Mobius Strip Revisited’, a squelching bass line and rolling percussive loops underpin ethereal pads and airy atmospheres before an extended keyboard solo plays over inspired chord progressions and a grooved low-end to give ‘Antikythera Mechanism Part 2’ an improvised feel. On the flip we have ‘Sub-Atomic Vibrations’, providing a series of irresistible lead synth melodies and crunchy drum compositions followed by ‘Struggles With Phantoms’, an unrelenting rhythm section lays the foundation for an evolving mid-range giving the release a stylish close.

After releases from the likes of Dakini9, Fox and Franklin Da Costa, it was only natural that Jersey City-based label Green Village would turn to DJ Spider for a new 12 inch. Well, it seems natural to us, in any case. The NYC artist is now a respected member of the Big Apple's contemporary house and techno wave, and it's an absolute must for him to be represented on the city's bubbling scene, especially when he's up for firing off tunes like "Space Jungle" and Satsang", two mean, club-minded house bangers with a prominent lower-end. "Divide & Conquer" turns things darker and more ominous thanks to its icy, minimal approach - a cold blend of stripped-back beats and circling bass tones - while "Urantia Of Nebadon" displaces the traditional house framework in favour of a dark, molecular selection of electronic sounds guided by a simple pattern of 4/4 beats. Classic Spider material...

DJ Spider makes his debut on Radio Slave’s Rekids imprint with four physical cuts this June. A key component in New York’s techno scene, over recent years the Plan B Recordings and Sublevel Sounds founder has graced the likes of The Trilogy Tapes, BleeD, KilleKill and Vanguard Sound! Releasing on Rekids as the label celebrates 10 years, Spider’s ‘Ninja Drive-By’ defines why so many hold the American stalwart in such high regard. ‘Dirt Nap’ leads the release with syncopated percussion and a thumping low-end that takes no prisoners. ‘TMC’ is a more subdued production in comparison, blending shadowy synths with an intricate drum workout. ‘Planetary DisFunkshun’ then introduces a penetrating melody amongst robust kicks, until ‘Montag’ concludes the package with moody pads and an inimitable rhythm More

Vanguard Sound follows up on Guerilla Soul’s self-titled EP with label co-head Chris Mitchell delivering Feng Shui Flow. Feng Shui Flow is an exploration into deep harmonic textures in the form of three distinct offerings. A1 Primordial Gravitational Waves- As the name suggests, inspired by the possible discovery of gravitational waves believed to be reverberations of the big bang. Staccato Bass and drums provide the heavy background for a pulsing bass wave, accented by synths and chords conjuring up visions of interplanetary manifestation. B1 Eurínome- Melancholic and intensely emotive chords and bass layered with intricate drums to paint this impression of the mysterious water goddess. B2 4th Density- A synth heavy offering with several layers of bass, string like patches, and a sprinkling of choral sounds driven by a pair of kick drums Into a plane of telepathy, harmony and ascension.

A project that began in late 2002 as a way in which the artist could wage a personal Guerrilla War on the wicked and dark forces that inhabit the music industry. Using Deep House as a cover in which to work thier abstract sonic alchemy, Guerrilla Soul! shall conduct a covert series of raids on dance floors world wide. Lurking in the shadows and dancing in dark corners, on the trains, in the planes, behind the wheel or in the streets...... Into The Woods - Inspired by the musical based on an adult version of Little Red Riding Hood and The Big Bad Wolf. Lilith of The Night - Chronicals the Story of Lilith. Adam's first wife who was also made from the earth at the same time. She would not make herself subservient to Adam so God banished her and created Eve. Fallen Angel - is a re-edit. Deep House Male vocal track about the remorse felt after hurting one's lover. Ray of Sunshine - an abtract start-stop tension and release melodic drum work out. *(Lyrics for Into The Woods written and Performed by Cecilia Bruun Hansen (Clara Stjärna) Co-written by Guerrilla Soul!* More

Following up on the success of Amir Alexander’s Idiot Savant Masterpieces, Vanguard Sound continues the struggle onward with Snakes, Heat and Concrete by Chris Mitchell. Raw, underground and forward continues to be the direction.

Idiot Savant Masterpieces is the 3rd release and the first full solo EP by Amir Alexander on the Vanguard Sound record label. On display is Amir's somewhat off kilter take on U.S. dance music. An approach so different that one critic described the work of Amir and his crew as Idiot Savant Masterpieces. All bases are covered, acid, deep, big room, and banging techno with a little hip house thrown in for good measure. Vanguard Sound is quickly establishing itself as a label to watch so serious collectors should buy this one on sight! The Realest of the Real! - An acid/ hip house hybrid banger that draws influence from the classic acid and hip house vibes. With vocals written and performed by Amir himself, this track combines 303 808 and 909 sounds with Amir's "street chants" to create a vibe that looks back to classic Chicago while pushing it forward and into the future. Sonic Weaponry! - An insidious techno groove that grabs you by the neck on the first note, and never lets go. Tough banging drums combine with a staccato analog synth passage that charges like an advancing army. The rubbery bass line joins the fray to incite utter madness as this deceptively minimalistic track whips the floor into a mad frenzy. Rebel Music (Version One)! - A big room Banger lead by a phrenetic sine wave bass line that never lets up. Deliberate, yet, stuttering percussion anchors the track. The accompanying synth ostinato continuously shifts as huge lush chords blow through like gale force winds. Black Panther's H. Rap Brown and Stokely Carmichael drop science about the nature of rebellion in the U.S. Who are You? - The "Deepest" track of the four opens with a beautiful ascending/ descending flute like synth passage that instantly sets the soul adrift. The hard and jumpy kicks interplay with a throbbing rhythmic bass that bubbles like a boiling cauldron. About halfway in a driving synth ostinato comes in to push the track forward. In the middle there is a dreamy break where Malcolm X comes through to ask "who are you"? More

Vanguard Sound is back with it's newest record. Chris Mitchell's Phrenetic EP! is Vanguard Sound's second release. Coming on the heels of the wildly popular Vanguard Sound vol. 3, this EP continues to uphold the aesthetic created with the first release, while simultaneously expanding it. The Phrenetic EP features four tracks from the mind and studio of a quickly rising North American talent that all walk the fine line between house and techno. All are very complex rhythmically, with both banging drums, and lush tones. A perfect 3 way marriage of classic Chicago, Detroit, and New York vibrations, the record contains set peaks, as well as transitional tracks that allow DJ's to traverse from house to techno and back. Already receiving massive amounts of positive feedback, this EP is proving to be a more than worthy follow up to VS001.

Vanguard Sound vol. 3is the maiden voyage of the Vanguard Sound Label. The "Mothership" is helmed by Dj./Producers Amir Alexander and Chris Mitchell of the "Vanguard Crew". Fellow crew members include Hakim Murphy, G. Marcell, Dakini9 (Lola) and Dj. Spider. The ep. series continues with four high intensity bangers that kick ass and take names. Stripped down to the core essence, these tracks will bring that left of center otherworldly flavor to your sonic atmosphere. Violence! - (Amir Alexander)- starts out with crunchy beats that hit like a baseball bat to the head. The bass line comes in with a thunderous roar. Rumbling frequencies incite urgent frenzy. The alarm tolls heralding the revolution! A vocal sample of Black Panther H. Rap Brown proclaims that "violence is as American as cherry pie", and all hell breaks loose. Limitations force everything! - (Chris Mitchell) - Deep kicks and jacking snare patterns shift as the vaporous sonic miasma fills the air. Low frequency sweeps pull you closer as the synth occilations intensify. The track breaks as the acidic bass line morphs. The track builds as an alien synth energizes the track. Banging percussion increases as the soaring strings lead the way. Tribal Mechanism! - (Dj. Spider) - Stuttering kicks lay the foundation as the percussion wastes no time in casting it's hypnotic spell. The throbing pulse feels like the antimatter propulsion unit of one of the ancient spacecraft the first human ancestors travelled to earth on many eons ago. Densely textured layers of sonic alchemy stoke the fires within the primal soul. The track grows and grows as the tech synth stabs enter the fray. Mystic rhythms coax you to reunite with your aboriginal self. Creeper! - (Hakim Murphy) - Disjointed bass kicks pound as an incideous synth groove spreads like a killer virus. Mutating and shapeshifting as the funk permiates your DNA. Soaring heights and sub level depths are attained as the "Creeper" spreads like cell division. Wreaking havok on dancefloors world wide!
