Review: Techno duo Cassegrain launched their Arcing Seas label - it's an anagram of their own artist name - back in 2016 but is only now making their ownership of it public. The pair's approach to music-making is similarly mysterious and enchanting and this three-tracker fuses detailed sound design with an understanding of dance floor requirements. On "Shahmaran" this takes shape through electronic pulses underpinning tranced out, hypnotic chords. "Caracal" is harder and more pared back and sees the pair drop grainy kicks and a coruscating rhythm, but the sense of mystery that pervades the label and their productions soon returns. "Vulpine" resounds to lithe, clicking percussion, a dense rolling groove and the occasional blast of white noise.

Review: The Greek-Lebanese power duo of hypnotic techno return for the third installment for their new Arcing Seas series and doing what they do best. However they've drafted some killer crew to remix tracks from their first release. First up Marc Trauner aka The Mover should need no introduction: his remix of "The Trappist" is a depth-charged/darkwave-electro nightmare if we've ever heard: it'd make The Hacker or The Horrorist up their game. The inimitable Peder Mannerfelt steps up to the challenge and delivers the goods as always on his pummelling modern industrial music workout on "Skullgun", while Avian head honcho Shifted does tunnelling minimalist techno aimed squarely at Berghain on "Vultures".

Review: Having previously showcased their off-kilter brand of dancefloor techno on a wide variety of imprints - M_Rec LTD, Prologue and Infrastructure New York included - Cassegrain recently decided to take hold of their destiny. This is their second single on the Arcing Seas label they founded earlier this year, and contains three full-body workouts in their usual style. "Stax Scarlett" sets the tone, peppering a thumping broken techno groove with dystopian guitar lines and creepy chords. "Vultures" sees them add rolling, dub techno style riffs to a shaker-driven peak-time groove, while "Local God" is pleasingly metallic in its ethos and construction.

Review: Greek-Anglo-Turk hypnotic techno kings Cassegrain inaugurate their new imprint Arcing Seas; an anagram of their name: get it? It's business as usual from Alex Tsiridis and Huseyin Evirgren and the inauguration of the label follows several acclaimed releases on the likes of Prologue and Infrastructure NYC. The title track powers away with relentless low-tom drums giving it most of the groove beneath a ringing melody. "Skull Gun" is stripped but effective DJ tool with its loopy repetition just begging to blended with another trance inducing track while "Trappist" is the peak time weapon on offer; with its tape delayed melody spitting about the place in hysterical fashion.
