Review: Cook is a relative newcomer in the techno community, yet on Brood Remixes 2 he attracts an impressive list of remixers to re-interpret his work. The best know of them is Singapore's Xhin, who delivers a suitably warped take on "Professor", his trademark splintered beats supporting blasts of black sound as the arrangement lurches between glitchy IDM and straight techno. Subjected of Vault Series fame follows with a straight big room techno take on "Murk", the concrete beats underpinning razor-sharp percussion and a wild rave horn riff. For those seeking a more conventional approach, Measure Divide's remix of "Knot" and Tom Laws's take on "Rage" are all white noise whooshing and massive breakdowns.

Review: The Amsterdam On And On party promoters celebrate six years with a compilation that varies from the full on to the stripped back and spaced out. Residing in the functional, DJ-friendly corner is Moerbeck, whose "Weapon's In Your Head" is a tough, banging workout led by slamming beats and a receptive tonal riff. Yan Cook's "Freefall" is more subtle but just as effective as its filtered and reverberated claps unfold over a dense groove, and Jeff Rushin "Tusk" is a classic slice of freaked out minimalism, its pointillist hook pushed over a pummeling, tribal drum track. At the other end of the spectrum Aiken's "Reductive" marries spaced out synths with a stepping arrangement, while Terence Fixmer's "Moments" is spacey Detroit techno at its very finest.

Review: Like his other release this week, Deformer, Ukraine producer Yan Cook offers tough techno as a starting point on Berg before delving into more experimental directions. In its original form, "Mill" sees Cook drop stomping beats and a churning filter before the arrangement veers into cavernous claps and resonating bleeps, while the Unbalance version is more subtle, using phased percussive licks and grungy filters. From there on in, Berg moves increasingly towards the abstract. The title track is led by a stepping rhythm and swirling chords, while "Dot" is an off the wall jam, anchored by wild bassy splurges and dense filters. Completing the release is Jeff Rushin & Nicole Rosie's take on "Mill", an understated, stripped back techno groove.

Review: The label arm of Dutch techno distributor Triple Vision delivers a fine compilation. It starts off in understated, sombre mode, with the rolling drums and woozy synths of tracks from Amotik and Refracted, before Codex Empire delves deeper with an atmospheric, break beat-led take on KAS:ST's "Raving Alone". That's not to say that Volume 8 is shy of dance floor tracks; from the rolling tribal groove of Setaoc Mass' "Light Falls" and the rave-infused "Generation X" from Deep Dimension to Remco Beekwilder's banging, chord-heavy "90's Mayhem", this is an expertly weighted and executed collection of modern techno.

Review: Cooked has become renowned as a techno label, and the tenth instalment is no exception. Like all the previous releases, Memories is produced by Yan Cook, and the focus remains on tough but crafty sounds. "Sweat" is a frenetic club track. Centred on a rolling groove, its cavernous chords lend it a dramatic dimension. "Reason" sees Cook opt for a more hypnotic approach. Powered by tough kicks, it resounds to swirling chords. There's a similar sound on the title track, where dubby textures unravel over a rolling groove. Never staying in one place for too long, on "Crab", Cook drops an acid-tinged broken beat workout.

Review: On his latest EP, Yan Cook channels the energy and intensity of late 90s techno. The sweeping chords and pounding kicks of "Nocturnal" sound like an update of the Magnetic North / Dave Clarke style, while on "Empty Dancefloors", Cook weaves in the kind of searing, wiggling acid lines that Emmanuel Top specialises in over booming drums. The title track sees Cook do what he excels at, namely delivering killer peak-time material with just a few elements - in this case, he uses concrete-weight kicks and relentless hi-hats in combination with a looped stab - while "Exomoon" is a deeper but still effective rolling club track.

Review: For the eighth installment on his Cooked imprint, Yan Cook heads down a high-paced route to deliver four distinctive but functional tracks. "Proximity" resounds to dense but bleep-heavy bass tones and doubled up drums and claps, while the title track sees Cook integrate tripped out vocal snippets into a frenetic, angular rhythm. On "Quicksand", he deploys a muddy bass to underpin the eerie synths that swirl up through the arrangement, while "Mara" is the most linear track on the release. It sees the Ukrainian artist drop a hammering tribal drum track that sounds like an update on Music Man releases from the 90s.

Review: Following remixes on Suara, Obscuur and Noir Music, Ukranian techno hero Yan Cook is back on his Cooked label with some pounding grooves on the Blades EP. The mentalist tunnel vision of the title track is exactly the kind of tackle you could imagine Boris hammering out during one of his legendary closing sets at Berghain, while the full throttle hypnotiser "Whistleblower" perfectly soundtracks the prelude to a blackout under the strobe lights at an illegal warehouse party. The Kiev-based producer hammers the message home - all guns blazing - on the emotive dub techno thriller "Skyhigh" complete with Aril Brikha style chord progressions.

Review: Yan Cook follows his Somatic album on Cooked with this raw, banging release. Inspired by the gated rhythms of Luke Slater's X-Tront Series, the title track's visceral percussion and distorted kicks provide a menacing soundtrack. "Abstract" is less frenetic, and sees Cook deploy pitched down vocal snippets over a steely, pulsating rhythm and concrete-weight drums. "Tidal Disruption" resounds to spaced out filters and a pulsating acid rhythm that's not dissimilar to the kind of tough 303 tracks that Synewave used to specialise in. "Noiser" meanwhile, see him change tact again, with a textured, atmospheric piece that has a hypnotic, Mike Parker-style groove at its heart.

Review: Yan Cook emerged from nowhere a few years back and has since released a series of EPs on established techno labels like Soma, Delsin and Planet Rhythm. Now it seems, the Ukrainian producer wants to become the master of his own destiny and has set up his own label. Perfect Mess, the third release on Cooked, is a perfect example of Cook's talents. "Hexa" is a pumping, linear groove that resounds to a looped bleep sequence. Simple in its construction but devastating in its effect, it is one of the best example of his work. The title track operates to similar principles, but this time features echoing, tripped out filters. "Reef" is deeper and wouldn't sound out of place on a Delsin record, but its dense groove provides the necessary support for Cook's melodic approach.

Review: The second release on Yan Cook's label sees him in formidable form. "Roadblock" starts the release with a bang: based on massive kicks drums and a filtered, metallic riff that sounds like it was borrowed from Luke Slater's Planetary Assault Systems catalogue, it's a massive peak time track. "Razor Sharp" makes nods to Mike Parker's pulsing, tonal playbook to create a hypnotic techno groove, while on "Hypnorum", the Ukrainian producer opts for a more stripped back take on electronic music. Calling to mind vintage release on the Torema label and even Joey Beltram, it's an impressive minimal workout - despite its angular framework, it's still a reflective prelude to the grainy, murky closing track, "Split".

Review: The debut release on Yan Cook's new label sees the Ukraine hotshot in flying form. The title track is a relentless, tunneling workout, hypnotic and banging at the same time. On "Grey Layers", he uses a similar approach, but drops the tempo. Bringing rasping percussion to the fore, the track resounds to insistent stabs. Then Cook delivers two unexpected tracks; "Falcon" is tough and banging, thanks to its razor-sharp percussio, but it appears to sample an old rave track. A further surprise is audible on "Twisted"; favouring a stepping rhythm, he fuses it with a clanging, grainy bass and reversed filters to create a highly distinctive track.

Review: This is the first in a three-part compilation series on Bpitch, named after Ellen Allien's party. This volume is an uncompromising collection that takes influence from 90s styles: Allien herself drops the buzzsaw, Heckmann-style "XTC", while Lady Starlight's mesmerising, acid-soaked "Re-15" occupies similar territory. On "Force Majeure" Introversion channels the energy of early Drumcode for a bombastic, drum-heavy workout and Nocow's "Let Em Fall" sounds like man update on DBX's minimalism, with a pared back, jacking rhythm paired with time-stretched vocal samples. Bpitch also deserves kudos for showcasing original techno innovators, and the he compilation includes DJ T-1000's pile-driving "Frequency Kill".

Review: Last year's fourth volume of the From the Vault series was largely an in-house affair, but for the fifth edition, Dynamic Reflection opts for a wider approach, bringing newcomers into the fold. It means that there are deep techno contributions from Cocoon producer Kevin De Vries' "Samarev" sitting beside spaced out dub tracks from Italy's Tozzy. Despite this proliferation of newer artists, Part V also plays host to familiar names. These include Stefan Vincent in reflective mode on "Torch" and label founders Abstract Division, whose "Metropolis" is turned into a solemn but beautiful slice of underground techno by former Sandwell District founder Function.

Review: With a booming release on Ann Aimee earlier this year, Yan Cook has proved he knows how to make sleek but industrial-strength techno. Here for Dynamic Reflection he pulls out more of the same with three cavernous club tracks of no-nonsense 4/4 energy. No prizes for guessing why the title-track is called "Melter", a production which Knotweed founder Phillipe Petit strips back in his remix, while on the flipside "Bell" is only drums and metallic percussion (or bells), leaving a hi-energy "Chaser" to suitably finish things off.

Review: For almost a quarter century, Delsin has been putting out some of the world's best electronic music. That situation didn't change in 2023. As this compilation demonstrates, the label still has an unerring knack of releasing music from the more esoteric end of the spectrum. Reedale Rise and VC-118A both deliver atmospheric strains of electro. On "Late Night Kyiv", Yan Cook pushes towards the dance floor to deliver an emotive tribute to his hometown. The compilation also consolidates Delsin's connection to Dutch artists. Steffan Robbers' Terrace project yields the emotive "Model A", while Eevo Lute co-founder Wladimir M drops the understated pulses and mysterious vocals of "Zie Het Onder Ogen / Y Faire Face". And Steve Rachmad shines as always, with the seductive Detroit techno of "Teknitron".

Review: Yan Cook was responsible for the tenth edition of the Inertia series in 2022, and he follows it with this eleventh instalment. In keeping with his signature sound, Collateral Damage is a hard-edged four-tracker. "Balance Point" resounds to insistent, steely percussion and a galloping groove. Meanwhile on the title track, Cook ups the pace. Led by a pulsating, clanging rhythm, a succession of drops and builds ensure that it will have maximum impact. "Pulsar" sees the prolific producer go down a hypnotic rabbit hole. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel - and "Late Night Kyiv" is a deep, Detroit-style workout, replete with dreamy pads.

Review: While some techno producers use the album format to explore ideas beyond the dance floor, Yan Cook does not share this thinking. The producer's latest album is designed explicitly for club play, an approach that is audible on the bleep and string-heavy "8 Bars". "Grooveyard" sees him opt for a different approach, with a frazzled bass and atmospheric synths riding a pulsating groove, while "S4" is a firing, visceral banger. That said, Cook also displays deeper sensibilities on XXX: "Exhale" resounds to dramatic synth lines, while the combination of rolling, steely drums and shimmering melodies show that when it comes to crafting dance floor techno, Cook is one of the very best in the business.

Review: Yan Cook is one of modern techno's most consistent producers, hitting the target with tough, impactful tracks. This release on ARTS is no exception, and gets under way to the sound of the title track's hypnotic pulses and atmospheric synths. "Infrared" is tougher, resounding to rolling tribal drums, insistent filtering and understated vocal samples. "Olympus Mons" sees Cook go deeper, with warm synths, outer space bleeps and crisp claps to the fore, but it's only a temporary divergence: "Shapeshifter" places the Ukranian artist at the very heart of the dance floor, with menacing, Mike Parker-style tones unravelling over heavy kicks.
