Review: In his highly anticipated third album, '93,' renowned US producer Maceo Plex pays homage to a remarkable three-decade journey into the electronic dance music. Blending house, hip hop, global bass, techno, breaks, and electronica - '93 showcases Plex's ability to seamlessly traverse genres while crafting an audio journey for the masses. Collaborating with a stellar lineup of artists including Perry Farrell, Desire, Cubicolor, and others, '93' is a cross-genre exploration that balances emotive musicality with hard-hitting beats. Departing from his early deeper house roots, Maceo Plex intentionally ventures into new territory, steering away from a melodic and techno direction, celebrating a pivotal juncture in his career, offering a diverse and dynamic musical affair that captures the spirit of his electrifying DJ sets for the now.

Review: RLGN serves up an idiosyncratic release for Maceo Plex's label. "Olonkho" sees the mysterious producer conjure up murmuring chants against tight break beats and dubbed out drums. It makes for a mystical, hypnotic track. On "Betrunkener Hund" ('drunk dog' in German) RLGN brings together warbling acid lines and crystalline synths over a low-slung ebm groove. Upping the tempo and the intensity levels, "Rain In Kyoto" is a bruising electro-techno workout that sounds like it was designed to sound track a cyber-punk thriller. The release also features some collaborations. "Mahaut" is a Middle Eastern-sampling electro roller, featuring Dummfound, while RLGN teams up with Stelmakh to drop the grainy techno of "Thriller".

Review: Joining pioneers like Carl Finlow and Freddy Fresh on Lone Romantic are CYRK. The duo, who have released on labels like Avoidant and Rawax, deliver four diverse electro cuts. The title track resounds to a rumbling bass and mysterious synth stabs, with these elements supported by robust bass drums. On "Holographic", the pair carve out a more mysterious sound, with eerie melodies underpinned by a gurgling, splurging bass, while "We Are Not" is a jarring track, as CYRK incorporate speak and spell tones and hushed vocals over a rough rhythm. Lastly, "Zeigarnik Effect" sees them delve into deep, sub-aquatic sound scapes and a rumbling bass.

Review: Following up releases on Blind Allies and Applied Research, Paul Villard this time resurfaces on Lone Romantic to showcase his strange and unusual superhuman powers - that supposedly came to him after a 'gamma accident'. The C.A.R.R.I.O.N EP unveils more of the enigmatic producer's cinematic electro sound, as best heard on the Dopplereffekt-ish "Submarine Limousine", or the underwater electro funk of "Fluid Dynamics" and the dystopian bass drama of "Neon Death" which also calls to mind the sounds of Motor City legends. With this majestic EP, Villard paints a vivid picture of some distant interplanetary world.

Review: Lending touches of dub techno, twinkling techno and pumping Italo-electro to a spread of stadium sized soul vocals, Maneater arrives on Maceo Plex's Lone Romantic with a single pushing harder drums, cosmic atmospheres and the subtle arpeggios of its arrangement. The exclusive remix comes from Alinka, an American-based artist getting some attention at the moment for her work with labels like Classic, Crosstown Rebels and her Twirl Recordings. Two super hits here for a for the full, packed and pumping dancefloor.

Review: Aussie electro wizard Mikey Melas is back as Jensen Interceptor and continuing to create a stir on the scene with his new wave electro antics, that have earned him releases on such esteemed labels like Central Processing Unit, E-Beamz and Boysnoize over the years. His debut full length EP comes courtesy of Maceo Plex's newly launched Lone Romantic imprint and titled Mother: a pulsating ode to the woman who brought him into the world. From the dynamic opener "Ultramax" which channels good old fashioned Detroit electro-funk of old, there are some terrific collaborations such as the darkly dystopian bounce of "Drip Freq" featuring British producer DeFeKT, while "Altered State" featuring fellow Sydneysider Assembler Code channels the very best of the Model 500/Metroplex aesthetic.

Review: UK artist Lord Of The Isles aka Neil McDonald joins the Lone Romantic crew in what is an unexpected turn for both him and the imprint; thus far, the Barcelona-based label has focused on dark and dreary sounds from the likes of Carl Finlow aka Vatican Shadow. LOTI comes through with a more mechanical approach compared to his usual blend of house flavours, with "Irafas" and "Alpha" both wrapped in a cold, industrial electro glaze - the latter being the dreamier of the two. "Q-bit" enters a darker realm, full of dubby nuances and a stripped-back beat structure, whereas "Three Times Eleven" scraps the kick drums in favour of rhythmic synth soundscapes. Brilliant stuff.

Review: Six years have passed since Maceo gave the world his debut album Life Index. In that time he's solidified his status as one of techno's most untouchable soul men who's unapologetically ungoverned by tempos or boxes or any type of formula. He's also become a father, which is what this (and last year's "Journey To Solar") are all about. Rich in sentiment, hope and fear, each cut reveals a deeper layer of Maceo: the star-gazing optimism of "Kepler's Journey", the Bristolesque industrial dub soul of "Indigo", the careful countering of vulnerable emotion and roboticism on "Was Away My Tears", the list goes on. This is Maceo at his most heartfelt and arresting.
