Review: Following a strong series of releases on Warm Up and his own Senoid imprint, Kike Pravda debuts on MORD with High Voltage. As its title suggests, it's an energetic release. "Octane" sets the tone with an acid-soaked, rolling groove, while "Dark Flares" sees him deploy a pulsating, hard-edged rhythm.
Pravda's style is also informed by those in his orbit; on "Singularity", that takes the shape of Mike Parker-style low-frequency tones and Oscar Mulero's wall of percussive noise. That's not to suggest that High Voltage is in thrall to prevailing tropes or styles. "Noiser" is a hypnotic, undulating groove and the title track is an exhilarating white-knuckle ebm techno ride.

Review: Bas Mooy's label brings together an impressive cast of producers for its latest compilation. The ominous bass on Mascon's "Nenner" lends the track an ebm sensibility, while Exium's "Dark Voids" is more in keeping with convention, fuelled by powerful filters and a steely, slamming rhythm. While there are intense contributions - in particular, Antony Doria's "Uprite" is visceral hard techno at its finest - Herdersmat impresses most when contributing artists provide their own interpretations of sub-genres. Takaaki Itoh's "Implement" is a mesmerising piece of hypnotic, droning techno, while on "Hdmt" UVB delivers a compelling version of Downwards' broken beat sound, replete with swirling textures.

Review: The fourth instalment in MindTrip's Mutable Minds series gets off to a hypnotic start as cold tones unravel over a sleek metallic rhythm on Translate & Pulso's "Moriarty". Kike Pravda's "Heat" is much more visceral, with wave upon wave of noisy electronics paired up with a barrelling, murky groove. Changing tact and shifting tempo again is Norbak's "Avadhuta"; while spacey filters lend the arrangement a cavernous feeling, there is no mistaking the power of its driving, steely drums and percussion. Vohkinne's "Active Radio" is in many ways, the most conventional track, but its rolling, loopy groove benefits from the type of tripped out hypnotic layers that have become MindTrip's stock in trade.

Review: From the prolific Dutch label comes this high-quality compilation. It starts, somewhat inauspiciously, with the serene ambience of JaBBurg's "Summit", but soon after that plunges into the kind of streamlined techno that Paul Boex's imprint excels at. Deepbass & Ness' "Proximity" is a tough tribal track and Voidloss' "Moment Of Total Emptiness" follows in a similar vein, albeit with some hypnotic tones thrown into the dense rhythms. The Jeroen Search take on Tim Wolff's "Backstage Fridge" is reminiscent of late 90s Sterac mixed with Silent Servant as woozy chords are mixed with functional, loopy rhythms. Paul Boex himself also impresses with "Hate is Love" remixed here by Oscar Mulero, bringing the compilation to an urgent, acid-heavy climax.
