Review: Ben Sims's label delivers a diverse but hard-hitting three-tracker. The label boss is first up and "Bite This" sees him sever the links with his loopy past. It's still a repetitive track, but as its basis Sims deploys a pulsing electronic groove and firing percussion, while a malevolent riff makes the transition from jarring and abrasive to atmospheric and eerie. Ritzi Lee travels a similar path on "Reverse Processed", where snappy percussion and a nagging bassline underpin metallic stabs and jarring riffs that reach out into the darkness. By contrast, Paul Mac's "Dry Run" is a more soulful experience. Despite the proliferation of spiky, metallic drums, it's the screeching, slightly deranged male vocal that stands out.

Review: Marking their one hundredth release, ePM pull out the stops with this unmissable remix package. Shed reworks Regis' "Beyond the Reach of Time", turning the Downwards founder's droning techno into a dreamy affair. CYRK is tasked with remixing Freddie Fresh's "ProMars", with the interpretation centred on warbling acid and crisp 808s, while in contrast, the Inigo Kennedy version of Bryan Chapman's "Io" is a dense affair, powered by heavy kicks and populated with sludge-like textures. It's followed by the Works of Intent take of UK veteran Paul Mac's "Nothing Remains". Led by a grinding bass and warbling melodies, it makes for a hypnotic end to an exemplary release.

Review: With 20 years spent releasing, distributing and representing techno and electro's finest producers, it's fair to say that ePM is a true champion of the underground. That commitment comes into sharp focus on EPM20, which brings together music from all of the Eps that the label released over the past year. The listener is really spoilt for choice: Regis delivers the beautifully ghostly techno of "Beyond The Reach Of Time Pt 1", while Robert Hood keeps the mood mysterious on the aptly named "Shadows". While the compilation spotlights prominent producers, it also showcases artists who sometimes fly under the radar - on this occasion, it's Paul Mac with the drum-heavy "Nothing Remains" and Carl Finlow's nocturnal electro on "Optogenetic". The fact that it's dedicated to the sadly departed Tim Baker is also a lovely touch.

Review: Unlike many of his peers, veteran UK producer Paul Mac excels at the album format. Previous long-players Old School Former Pupil and Push Came to Shove have afforded him the opportunity to showcase his versatile approach, and Insomnia is no different. The rolling, loopy groove of "Disc Elecronique" and the stripped back rhythms of "Driven Points" prove that he's still got an intuitive dance floor feeling, while the dramatic string stabs of the title track and the evocative chords on "Old" see him bring the Detroit narrative to clubby techno. But Mac is not just about copying existing narratives and the chord-heavy, filtered groove of "More Disco" represents a new mutant strain - dubby, disco techno.

Review: It's a positive thing that a veteran producer like Paul Mac can re-appear, seemingly at random and receive acclaim for his work. Then again, as Simple demonstrates, not every producer is as talented. The title track is a heavy, rolling groove, powered by a dark, booming bass and made all the more effective thanks to its churning filter. It sounds like Mac has made an attempt to fuse loopy techno with Saunderson-style bassy grooves and has succeeded. Liverpool producer John Heckle opts for a radically different approach with his remix. Heckle's remix is based on a jacking rhythm and acidic licks that insinuate themselves in and out of the arrangement.

Review: UK producer Paul Mac is one of the most prolific techno artists and has been putting out music since the mid-90s. This goes some way to explaining why his new release for Kirk Degiorgio's ART label alternates between such extremes. On "Odd Things Amount To Nothing", Mac delivers a slab of hard, jacking techno; its jarring, droning riffs and heavy filters building up to a roof-raising finale. By contrast, on "Here Comes The Swing", Mac drops a deep house gem, its bleeding acid bassline and wonderfully eerie synth riffs inspired by Adonis and Larry Heard. Only a producer of Mac's experience and talents could manage mood swings with such aplomb.

Review: For its 50th release, UK-based Osiris Music has rightly thought of landing with a fully-packed compilation from all corners of its vast and explorative catalogue. As a side note, it's important to say that this imprint, along with a few other key stables, has been responsible for the successful merging of the techno and dubstep worlds over the last 5 years. Ipman's broken, techno-leaning tool "Persistent Dread" is a great example of this early on, with peeps like Pessimist or MAnnic also providing some new and exciting flavours in the field. The one like Killawatt is also on duty here, bringing through some delightfully eerie industrial vibes, while Paul Mac, Sleeper, and Juno favourite Manni Dee deliver amuch needed 4/4 swing to liven the dance up. Fully-packed and loaded.

Review: Paul Mac is one of the UK's real techno veterans, a producer with a sizeable back catalogue spanning a variety of sounds. For this EP, a taster for an album of the same name, he focuses on deep, Detroit techno, but with a twist. The title track is a driving affair, but Mac lends it a musical sound with evocative, breezy chords combined with dramatic string stabs. "Undoubted" sees him go down a more tracky route and its heads-down groove veers close to militaristic, but he keeps it on the right side thank to the clanging drums and crashing percussion. Marcel Fengler also contributes an excellent, wobbly bass-led version of "Insomnia".

Review: Mac often draws on the influence of Detroit, but on DAT Archive, he focuses on the low-slung swing of Chicago house. "Binary Cycle" is a grainy, jacking affair, featuring little more than heavy 909 kicks and scratchy riffs. "Cherry Picker" sees Mac up the intensity and tempo levels as splurging 303s lines and an insistent ghetto rhythm prevail, while "Evidence" invokes the spirit of Robert Armani with its relentless, analogue rhythms. But Mac excels when he adds some of his own flourishes to this sound: "Funk Ignition" is a stop-start affair laced with grimy acid, while "F10 Filter" is led by spiky snares and tough, metallic drums.
