Review: Ben Mill steps from the shadows of his A&R job for Gynoid to deliver this killer techno release. "Citizen One" is an eerie, pulsing groove that veers into deep, dubbed out textures without losing its dance floor focus. "Citizen Two" meanwhile sees him maintain this atmospheric feeling, but applies it to a tougher backing track of spiky beats and sharp percussive bursts. Given his day job, it's not a surprise that Mill has selected two excellent remixers; Giorgio Gigli's version of "Citizen One" is powered by a dense bass that brings the listener to a tranced out, bleep-heavy place, while Fanon Flowers' take on the same track is more subtle. Starting with ticking percussion and subtle off-beats, the US producer puts a focus on Mill's textured sound scapes to make a mysterious, reflective track.

Review: Melbourne-based Ben Mill steps from Gynoid's A&R shadows to deliver this three-tracker. "Dark Side of the Spoon" will appeal to fans of Truncate and SP-X, its boulder-heavy beats and firing percussion underpinning incessant filtering and resonating bleeps. "And Your Horse" is more intense, as the Australian artist lays down a resonating, pulsating bass that envelopes the rhythm in wave upon wave of fuzzy filters. It makes for a hugely effective peak time track. Finally, there's the title track, where Mill explores a world of dark, ambient textures. It's an impressive parting shot from an artist who deserves much more recognition.

Review: Gynoid dig deep for volume three of their Reprise series, and first up is Mattias Fridell with "Temporal Axis" - a track that has enough techno funk and mechanical groove to make its way on to a Fachwerk record. New CLR stalwart Rebekah delivers a typically rigid remix to the smooth dub of Dark Chambers' "Flow", while label boss Advanced Human delivers "Deep Earth" a progressive track full of wood block percussion which starts techy, but morphs into something big room. Emerging Melbourne talent Ground Loop is then remixed by Full Panda boss Dasha Rush for "Hour 25", the most subdued track on the EP.

Review: Gynoid reveals a murkier side with the Reprise series. Ground Loop's "Begin" sounds like a relatively normal techno groove until ravey riffs kick in over the massive claps. Likewise on Mattias Fridell's take on Jin Hiyama's "Carp", percussive elements take hold. Hats crackle and hiss, snares roll in menacingly and an electronic bassline hums menacingly. The Advanced Human remix of Dacido and Meta's "Knockin On A Dark Room" up the ante further with dramatic chord sweeps and a pulsing acid line creating the drama, while Velovr's "We Are Straight" brings the release to a crushing close, its heavy beats and murky, stepping rhythm stomping all over the listener.

Review: DJ Hi-Shock compiles the second instalment of his remixes and in so doing shows just how many killer reshapes he has carried out recently. Most of the interpretations follow a roughly similar path, with heavy, dubby beats combined with fathomic chords and rickety percussion. There are of course some smart diversions; his take on Mark Broom's "M28" deploys a stepping rhythm and infectious filtering; the remix he provides of Ad.lib & Silvision's 'Collide' sees acidic lines roll in menacingly over metallic rhythms and the take on MADA and Plankton's "Zath" is an eerie, stripped back groove fuelled by a throbbing bass.

Review: Like SP-X and Developer, Ground Loop provides a contemporary take on club techno. "Pine Gap" shows how techno has progressed in the area of sound design as concrete beats provide the basis for a growling bass and churning filters but also eerie textures. "South Signal" is a different proposition as Ground Loop escapes the rigours of the peak time to focus on stop-start beats and a low slung rhythm. Despite this, there is no doubt about where this EP's focus is; Advanced Human's take on the title track feature abrasive percussion and a big room filter, while Mattias Fridell's take on "South Signal" is more understated, but its tight claps and linear rhythm mean that it is a consummate functional techno track.
