Ellen Allien has just marked the launch of her brand new UFO Inc. label with a hard hitting, two track EP.  Featuring the tracks UFO, which has been on heavy rotation in her DJ sets throughout the second half of 2018, and hard-hitting acid belter Körpermaschine on the B-Side, it’s a solid introduction to the raw and contemporary techno releases we might expect from the imprint. ‘UFO serves a mediator between earth and heaven, i.e. the concrete dancefloor and a feeling of transcendental rapture – the kind of track that lifts you up from where you dance and takes you away to new spheres’ – Ellen ..read more

EP REVIEW: LONYA – QUICKSAND (JEAHMON!)
The Techno Kittens
by Leigh Tomlinson
4y ago
The thrill of searching for music and the discovery of new artists and labels is what I love about blogging. That moment when you come across a label that you’ve never heard of before and the following hours spent listening to the back catalogue wondering where they’ve been all your life is what it’s all about. That’s exactly what happened when I recently came across Marc DePulse’s imprint JEAHMON! Records and Lonya’s debut release on the label. Released as a three track EP, Quicksand is a progressive and emotive piece with twinkling synth tones that reverberate into the ether, supported by a ..read more

REVIEW: JUNCTION 2 LAUNCH PARTY
The Techno Kittens
by Daniel Hammond
4y ago
The venue was a Victorian-era warehouse built for tobacco from the New World and last week a new, electronic import had arrived to mark the 2019 launch of Junction 2 Festival. Thousands had descended into London’s East End to rave to the sounds of Dixon, Amelie Lens and Drumcode boss Adam Beyer. More than 200 years after its conception, Wapping’s Tobacco Dock saw an international crew of electronic music artists spin webs of sound – ranging from vocal-heavy house to the hardest techno. With its boast of ‘hidden depths’ – the venue was almost instantly jammed from 2pm with black-clad ravers – i ..read more

EP REVIEW: ALEX MINE – DAWN MATTER (FILTH ON ACID)
The Techno Kittens
by Leigh Tomlinson
4y ago
Looking at the tracks that have found their way into my record collection throughout 2018 and particularly those that have featured in our monthly radio shows on Music Box Radio, Filth on Acid stands out as our label of the year. It’s really not that surprising given the slew of incredible releases they’ve had this year from artists that include OC & Verde, Ilija Djokovic, label boss Reinier Zonneveld and now this four piece monster release from Alex Mine. It’s rare to find an EP release where each track is as solid as the next but that’s exactly the case for Dawn Matter which delivers fo ..read more

BICEP LIVE x PRINTWORKS – REVIEW
The Techno Kittens
by Leigh Tomlinson
4y ago
If, like us, you’ve been hammering Bicep’s debut album since its release last year then it’s highly likely that you’ve been dying to catch them perform live.  That’s not even taking into consideration their hefty back catalogue that spans almost a decade with monster releases such as Just, Vision of Love and collaborations with the likes of Simian Mobile Disco and Midland.  All taken into consideration,  we quickly snapped up tickets when it was announced that Bicep would be playing at London’s Printworks in November. Bicep’s self-titled debut album was released in September 2017 A Wednesda ..read more
