Do You Still Think About It?
Super Position - (4:59) 72 BPM
Do You Still Think About It? - (4:45) 73 BPM
Gary Rave - (5:49) 73 BPM Hot
Changement - (4:23) 83 BPM
Review: Leisure System rolls out the red carpet for Ned Becket aka Dream Sequence in the event of the label's first transmission for 2021. It teleports back to the golden age of rave, hardcore and the free party scene, with Dream Sequence's "Gary Rave" the quintessential, effervescent classic! Made in conjunction with Planet Mu and Shipwrec associate Chevron, the EP's direction goes a little more retro-futuristic in tracks like "Super Position" as it graces genres like house, Italo-disco and electro, while more complex numbers can be found in the oddball arrangements of "Do You Still Think About It?". "Changement" dials up that experimental bleep sound furthermore in an EP that no doubt comes directly from the source.

Thin Shell, Inner Void - (7:59) 130 BPM Hot
The Galaxy Collapsed Into A Point - (6:09) 156 BPM
Review: Rob Cloth finally returns to Berlin's party-turned-label, Leisure System, with a fine blend of his very own bass house amalgamations. "The Smallest Measurable Space" kicks the EP of with a heavy dose of bass and boken drum patterns - a guaranteed monster on the Funktion One's - followed by the more IDM-fuelled "Cracks In The Fermament", a lovely bit of sci-fi breaks action. "Thin Shell, Inner Void" is the oddest and most distorted groove yet thanks to its complex drum patterns and folding arrangement, while "The Galaxy Collapsed Into A Point" takes care of the ambience with its masterful strokes of pads and lonesome synths. Tip!

Dopplereffekt - "Delta Wave" - (5:43) 139 BPM
Objekt - "Ganzfeld" - (5:56) 147 BPM Hot
Review: In something of a dream pairing for Leisure System, this split disc spans the old guard of electro and those well versed in pushing it into new contortions. Dopplereffekt is of course one of the most lauded of all post-Drexciya projects, and new material comes few and far between. "Delta Wave" is a lavish, sweeping wonder of celestial voices and sci-fi mystery that satisfies all your desires without sounding like a re-hash of old material. On the flipside Objekt has risen to the occasion and delivered one of his most outright electro-infused belters to date, keeping the beat rigid but funky, and working similar amounts of drawn out pads into the mix while keeping the crafty edits and playful sounds as limber as ever.

Clockwork Atom
Clockwork Atom - (7:37)
Islands Of Glass - (5:10) Hot
The Descent - (5:08)
Review: From the peerless Detroit electro of Dopplereffekt to Rob Clouth's glitch techno, Leisure System is fast becoming one of the most diverse labels operating in the electronic music space. It's hard to say if Atom will find favour with those who hang on Gerald Donald's every note, but there is no doubt that Clouth does a fine job of interpreting decidedly Germanic influences. This is especially audible on the title track, a compelling mish-mash of glistening trance melodies and subtle, micro-house rhythms. "Islands of Glass" is a more abstract, stripped back affair, but melodies are never far from a Clouth release, and "The Descent" teems with melancholic piano playing before unexpectedly breaking down into a cacophony of warped noise.

Kronos
Kronos - (7:00) Hot
Mesonoxian - (6:07)
Ls6 - (6:32)
Played by: Shadow Dancer, Klient
Review: From the label that released Dopplereffekt's first EP in seven years comes this radically different record. "Kronos" sounds like a particularly racuous take on vintage Underworld; its rhythm hurtles recklessly like an out of control juggernaut, the vocal is as deranged as Karl Hyde, while the hoover bass could be borrowed from an old hardcore record. "Mesonoxian" has echoes of early 90s dance music as well, largely because of the way that a raging sub-bass is combined with a soulful diva vocal. Finally, "Ls6" marks a radical departure: instead of high octane techno it's a deeper, broken beat affair, led by rich chords.

Tetrahymena - (5:13) 141 BPM
Gene Silencing - (4:07) 114 BPM Hot
Zygote - (4:11) 151 BPM
Review: The somewhat mysterious Dopplereffekt project founded by Drexciya's Gerald Donald ends their six year production hiatus with this Tetrahymena EP for Berlin label Leisure System. Established by Donald in the mid '90s, Dopplereffekt remain one of techno's most enigmatic propositions with their brand of cold, stark electro complemented by a bold, Cold War-indebted aesthetic and a general disregard for performing live or giving interviews. Though Donald has remained active production wise, developing the NRSB-11 project with DJ Stingray which recently saw the release of the politically loaded Commodified album, the Tetrahymena EP is a welcome return for Dopplereffekt and undoubtedly the most high profile release yet from Leisure System.
