Technetium – Holzig

Technetium HolzigBeijing based artist Elvis T. aka Technetium returns to Japanese label Torque with a futuristic techno tune called “Holzig”. It comes with 4 remixes by Jonas Kopp, Ben Sims, Q’Hey and JAK.

On the Original Mix, Technetium (Mothership/Acupuncture) combines chunky drums, dark bass and futuristic sounds, with powerful results. Next is the remix by Argentina’s Jonas Kopp (Curle/Stroboscopic Artefacts) who provides a bumpy ride through analog grooves, lo-fi drums and clever swing. The legendary Englishman Ben Sims (Theory/Drumcode) goes straight for the big room funk with his remix, chock-full of jackin’ groove and mechanical overtones. In a remix by Q’Hey (MB Elektronics), the Tokyo legendary dj/producer holds true to key elements of the original, but adds his signature deep bass, big drive and tantalizing buildups. Exclusive to the digital release is a rework by West Coast U.S. artist and Torque resident JAK (SubSensory Recordings/Torque), who delivers an absolute stomper of a remix. Big room elements are in full effect as JAK rounds out the pack with his unstoppable groove.

Saso Recyd – Il Postino EP

With over a decade of music production under his belt, Saso Recyd is no newcomer the the underground music scene. The Macedonian has been hard at work the last few years establishing a name for himself and it shows. With releases on Rawthentic, Inmotion, Minus12, Plus8 and many more, there is truly no stopping him. We’re extremely happy to present his latest EP, Il Postino and to finally have him join the Local family.

On remix duties we have label bosses The Junkies along side good friend and fellow Torontonian, Chris Larsen. The Junkies remix of “Nothing Nowhere” includes their signature big beefy drums and choppy vocals while Chris’ baseline driven grooves and touch weird are evident in his remix of “Il Postino”.
