Review: A thrilling ride through energetic and innovative techno. Opening with 'Funken', the track delivers hi-tech funk with stomping melodic work, driven by vibrant chords and an uptempo, atmospheric vibe that sets the tone for the release. 'Groove Constructor' follows, offering a playful, creative take on techno with infectious grooves and clever sound design that keep the energy flowing. On Side-2, 'Quartz' brings high-energy tech house, perfectly suited for peak-time moments, with a relentless beat and captivating rhythms that propel the track forward. Closing with 'Liebherr', the track incorporates fast tribal beats and melodic breaks, expertly building tension before releasing in powerful, dynamic moments. This release showcases Baugruppe90's ability to blend energy, creativity and rhythm into a cohesive, exciting listening experience.

Review: Ascendant Berlin duo Blame The Mono return with their latest outing on French label Molekul titled 'Riot Toys'. There's no holds barred on this hard techno onslaught: the adrenalised energy of opening cut 'Gazellehorden' (feat HerrClem) fires up the engine in style, followed by the hyperaware energy of 'Switch The Pilot' and its jacked-up big-beat influence which also lunges straight for the jugular. Over on the flip, 'Funk Herald' will keep you tripping out under the strobelight, plus one more peak time banger to hammer the message home in the form of 'Bad Disco' which will keep the heads down on the dancefloor.

Review: Four percussive techno workouts drive this EP, each pushing rhythms and atmosphere alike into forward-thinking territory. Side-1 starts with 'The Cult', a relentless, bass-heavy force built for peak-time energy. The low-end hits hard, while futuristic elements keep it fresh. 'Charm' follows with a rhythmically adventurous approach, weaving breaks and deep bass into the techno frameworkiperfect for DJs looking to push boundaries. On the flip, 'Jungle Curse' layers pounding drums, looping percussion and crisp production into a hypnotic groove. Its weighty bass and driving structure make it an essential tool for deep, rolling sets. Closing out the record, 'Wild Nights' goes full tribal, locking into a hedonistic pulse that feels primal yet otherworldly. If you're looking for different rhythms in techno while still keeping the energy high - plus a heavy dose of futurism - these are well worth checking out.

Review: Molekul's 11th outing is a various artists' affair with each of them exploring high-impact techno with a retro bent. JKS's 'Express Yourself' is a video game soundtrack for a post-apocalyptic shoot-em up. "Bad Boy" Pete brings dark and driving breakbeats infused with fierce stabs on 'Champion Sound' and Jacidorex brings some warped acid lines to the ever ascending and tightly stacked 'Extinctor.' Vikkei shut down with 'E Fallo Uno', which is an update of a manic hardstyle sound with caustic synths running a mock. Pure dance floor carnage, this.

Review: The Furious Beats EP is a compilation of five high-energy techno tracks from various artists. The EP opens with Seigg's 'Furious Loop', a driving house track with a relentless beat and soaring energy. Zisko's 'Amnesia' is a more percussive affair, with a hard-hitting kick drum and wicked fast groove. Vromo's 'Burn Up' is a galloping burner with a catchy vocal hook with no let up. The EP closes with DJ Swisherman's 'Best Shot', a bass-heavy banger with a catchy diva vocal and a driving beat.
