about

'EPM Selected Vol. 8' features twelve tracks from the EPMmusic archive, with this collection taking a remix narrative. The compilation includes tracks by Mark Broom, Oliver Way, Theiz, House of Black Lanterns, Esteban Adame, Paul Mac, Techmarine Bottom Feeders, Arno Vancolen and Francesco Terranova with remixes coming from Sonic Boom, Robert Hood, Makaton, Carl Finlow, Aux 88, Absent, Ben Long & Oliver Way, Mark Flash, Tresillo, The Advent & Industrialyzer, MGUN and The Fear Ratio.

Involved in the electronic music scene since 2001, EPMmusic's label will this year have over 100 releases to its name from a glittering spectrum of today's techno, house and electro pioneers. Nurturing a core set of artists has seen the label pick up numerous accolades, support and global recognition to become an established dance music force. As a snapshot into how we got here, the 8th instalment of our "Selected" series goes crate-digging in the remix vaults.

Pulling us into an ethereal electronic hinterland, the album launches with Sonic Boom's hypnotic remix of Arno Vancolen's 'Venus Loop Revisité', a perfect way to ease into the action before Robert Hood does what he does best and takes Oliver Way's 'Stained Glass Shadows' kicking and screaming into a techno/house vortex.

House of Black Lanterns' 'Drown' always had a gorgeous techno dub vibe and Birmingham's Makaton tweaks it even further into a smoke-filled echo chamber, haunted by the spirits of King Tubby and Maurizio before the multi-faceted Carl Finlow channels the soul of Kraftwerk into his rework of Theiz's 'Motor City Bliss'. LA's Esteban Adame has always had a funk and jazz edge to his techno but this time his track 'Descendants' is stripped back to its dancefloor bones via the mysterious Tresillo team before Detroit meets Detroit in the shape of Paris the Black Fu's Techmarine Bottom Feeders who get the electro-funk treatment from Keith Tucker's Aux 88.

Next, we head off to Southern Italy as Neapolitan techno producer Francesco Terranova gets dragged through a rusty corrugated steel tunnel courtesy of Oliver Way and Ben Long before Absent's take on Mark Broom's 'Myth' builds on translucent pads and chords into a driving technoid monster. Esteban Adame then hooks up with Underground Resistance cohort Mark Flash as Mr. Flash keeps that all important jazz-funk element of Adame's original, piecing it back together into a soulful tech-house rump shaker.

Taking it back a good few years we have Paul Mac's 'Drums & Breaks' being given that all essential techno uplift by The Advent's Cisco Ferreira and Industrialyzer, whilst MGUN gives Esteban Adame's 'Home Sick' a bit of extra jack bump 'n' grind before closing things out is the twisted, discordant electro sonics of The Fear Ratio's (aka Ruskin & Broom) take on Arno Vancolen's 'Saturn Studio'.
