Canadian producer Fairmont combines bluesy vocals and tough, progressive techno with impressive results in Brothers Keeper, the opening track of his latest EP on Bedrock Records. By mixing these elements, he creates an immersive atmosphere that draws you in like a moth to flame.

H.O.S.H. & Groj - Jedi

Part 4 of fryhide´s Instant series brings us Jedi by HOSH and Groj, two names that are by now synonymous with well arranged, captivating music, pushing the boundaries of techno towards the richer, greater depths of melody and sentiment. Combining enigmatic vocals and enveloping sounds with a hard-edged beat works very well, creating a very distinctive and unique track.

Tone Depth - Errors

By incorporating texture and composition into his sound, Tone Depth looks to move forward unto the next step in the evolution of techno, setting aside traditional elements of the genre and introducing some unexpected changes and atmospheres. Like in his The Odyssey Pt. 2 EP, out on the great fryhide, where melody takes over the shuffling rhythms, creating evocative moments like the first track Centuries. On Errors, Tone Depth adopts a tougher stance to produce a gritty sound, with dive-bombing synths buzzing along the beat.

His Booya EP, released by Dantze under his Pan/Tone identity, is a meaty and solid two-tracker, with plenty of enveloping sounds and effects so as to keep your ears busy while your feet dance away. Booya Boy opens the record, a bouncy, driving, kind of progressive track perfect for starting a set.
