Review: 'OHM Series #11' presents a vibrant mix of techno with contributions from four talented producers, adding depth to the ongoing series. On Side-1, Christine Benz's 'Sunset' opens with warm, enveloping chords, creating a serene atmosphere that feels like a sunset on a tropical island. Following that, Brizman's 'As We Should', featuring Linn, shifts the tone with a lighter, dub-infused house sound, perfect for a more relaxed vibe. Side-2 kicks off with Hidden Sequence's 'Dub Cycle', a darker, more ominous track, weaving catchy dub techno rhythms that pull you in. Finally, Martin Jarl's '02_37 AM' brings a smooth, ambient dub feel with a traditional techno edge. This airy composition evokes the timeless sounds and reminds us of Model 500's Starlight. This edition of OHM Series showcases diverse approaches to dub techno, balancing the atmospheric with the rhythmic - and all delivered with precision.

Review: Romania's Floog is already well known for his impactful presence in the micro house scene with releases on Visionquest, Enfasi, and Atipic. Here he teams up with Brizman, the minimal alias of techno veteran Gel Abril, on Adam's Bite. The EP kicks off with the title track 'Lose Connection' featuring a bouncy sub-bass line, saturated drums, twitchy synths, and glitchy vocals. 'That Hook' takes a more dynamic approach with layered synths, modulating flutters, and whispered vocals and the 12" then closes with 'True Believer' featuring Linn Stern and blending cinematic atmospheres, robotic voices, fluttering arpeggios with skippy, raw drums for an anthemic finish.

Review: Evasive Records proudly returns to vinyl with a dynamic new release featuring two standout tracks from David Gtronic and Brizman. Colombian-born, Berlin-based David Gtronic is known for his bass-driven, percussive style, with releases on labels like Suara and Monique Musique. Teaming up with Tel Aviv's underground sensation Brizman, now also based in Berlin, the pair deliver an exhilarating EP recorded in the heart of the city. Still So Far Away offers deep sub basslines, acid synths, and hypnotic chords, while Your Imagination brings a funky guitar bassline and an infectious groove. Evasive's Rob Pearson takes on remix duties, infusing his South London retro Tech House style into 'Still So Far Away', while transforming 'Your Imagination' into a tech breaks workout primed for the dancefloor. A must-have for vinyl collectors and fans of cutting-edge electronic music.
