Review: Pushmann & Fixon's collaboration on RSPX merges the vibrant musical cultures of Spain and Mexico, resulting in a Rekids Special Projects release. Drawing from their collective experiences on labels like ANAOH and Pushmann's N&N, the duo delivers The Tribalism - four tracks of undeniable tribal techno - no joke. For fans of 2000s James Ruskin, Mark Broom and of course Robert Hood, there's touches inspirations from label like NON Series and the funkier side Token too. With some gospel inspirations making their way into 04, 01 runs the gauntlet with its looped vocal cut and tonal percussion next to the tripped out and druggy haze of 02, with 03 going big room, dubby and looped up. Detroit in house. UK in the building. Spain & Mexico to the world.

Review: It's a case of Abstract by name but not by nature as Uncertain returns to Rekids. Spread across four tracks, his return to the label is a deadly effective club EP. "Alert" fuses slamming claps with vocal snippets, a combination that unravels over a slamming, primal rhythm. On the title track, he follows a similar trajectory - the key difference being the use of repetitive tones and noisy analogue riffs. "Faze" sees Uncertain take influence from the tribal techno sound of the late 90s but adds his own colourful twist, with upbeat vocal samples and insistent stabs to the fore. In contrast, "Access" is a peak-time, stripped back number centred on a firing percussive rhythm.

Review: Hybrasil is a regular contributor to the RSPX series, and Greystone serves as a reminder that he releases some of the best material on the Rekids spin-off. The title track is powered by grainy drums and insistent hi hats, making for a great heads-down, no-nonsense workout. On "Cernunnos", he introduces a musical element, albeit with a dark edge as brooding synth stabs envelop the driving rhythm. "Konkrete" also deploys synths - this time, it's a jittery, one-note stab that unfolds over relentless drums. But Hybrasil leaves the best until last. "Eriu" swings to the sound of titanium kicks, insistent chord stabs and bristling hi hats, like a modern version of Sean Deason's classic, "Psykofuk".

Review: Mark Broom has been making and playing techno for 30 years, but he retains an unerring ability to always hit the target. The fourth volume of Mutated Battle Breaks is no exception to this rule, and over the course of eight tracks he drops a variety of crafty club tracks. There's the wiry, angular minimalism of "Tube", where Broom sounds inspired by vintage Rob Hood. In contrast, "Whisper" is a chord-heavy roller that is aligned with late 90s loop techno, while changing tact again, the explanatory "909 Workout" is a furious, pared back rhythm track. The common theme throughout is Broom's talent for making highly effective club techno.

Review: Next up on Rekids offshoot RSPX is Klint with a fine, hard-hitting release. The title track resounds to tough kicks and driving percussion, which provide the basis for dramatic chord sweeps. "Klapper" follows a similar path, with Klint focused on combining dramatic chord stabs with a looped vocal sample. The ensuing fusion plays out over a jacking, steely rhythm. "Record the Discord" revolves around a jittery rhythm and rolling tribal drums, with these elements providing the backdrop for jazzy keys. "Tulipa" sees Klint opt for a deeper approach. Haunting vocal samples are combined with soulful synths for a hypnotic track that still never loses sight of the dance floor.

Review: The second RSPX compilation picks up where the first volume left off, with a focus on crafty house and techno jams. This aesthetic is at the heart of the raw, jacking groove of Radio Slave's "F__k Em" and "This Is Our Groove" a hypnotic, minimal house workout from Rekids regular Confidential Recipe and Lady Tazz. It's also audible on the compilation's techno contributions: Slam's "Beat Control" sees the Soma duo infuse a looped groove with insistent, pitch-bent vocal samples and V111's "East Sex Rave" is a rousing, chord heavy affair. Meanwhile, Markus Suckut's "Flux" takes inspiration from Octave One's primal funk to bring the compilation to a mesmerising climax.

Review: In a short space of time, the RSPX series has become a key part of the Rekids imprint. More broadly, the releases are essential for discerning techno DJs. This compilation shines a light on why RSPX enjoys this status. Mark Broom's "Late Night Rave Muncher" is a diva vocal-led, high energy club banger, while Klint's "Mustang" achieves the same impact by different means. Focused on a rolling groove, filtered vocals weave in and out of the arrangement. That's not to suggest that the series is all about banging techno. Gene Richards Jr's "Take Control" is a superb, Chicago influenced jacker, powered by a primal groove and piledriving claps, while Philippe Petit's "Form & Function" resounds to eerie organs and a shuffling rhythm.

Review: Confidential Recipe returns to Rekids, which has provided a platform for him under the banner of the RSPX series. In keeping with his previous releases for the label, Fank is a jacking, sample-heavy EP that'll appeal to house and techno DJs alike. "Right Now" is led by repetitive vocals and a gritty Chicago rhythm, while on "Fank Groove", the Colombian DJ ups the pace. While vocal samples still abound, tonal bleeps and rattling hi hats lend it a techno sensibility. "In Da Club" follows a similar approach; this time, the vocals are pitch-bent and less distinct, unfolding over a driving rhythm and insistent organ riffs, while "Sharp" is a dramatic, chord-heavy big room track. In a sign that his music is attracting a growing audience, the release also features "Melody 89", an eerie NY-style house collaboration with DJ Haus.

Review: Following a string of great EPs for Rekids last year, Confidential Recipe bounces back with more raw techno. The title track sets the tone for the release, with a vocal sample intoning 'one two, one two' unfolding over a bleepy, analogue rhythm, while on "BLP1", he ups the pace to deliver a jacking, minimal techno track that draws on the legacy of DBX and Relief in equal measures. "BLP2" is similarly inclined, with a repetitive vocal loop set to a tough groove, while on "La Danza", the Colombian does his own take on ghetto, dropping a slamming rhythm peppered with a call and response vocal sample.

Review: Following his Exit Fragments album on Axis, Arjun Vagale now debuts on Rekids sublabel RSPX with this storming release. Both "Flash" and the title track are driving techno affairs, lean in construct and relentless in nature, as he follows the path created by Jeff Mills to peak time abandon. "Unusual Sentiment" is more understated, with the Indian producer dropping wave upon wave of insistent tones and jarring, insistent percussion, while on "Cryophytes", he changes tact again; underpinned by an angular rhythm, it features layer upon layer of yelping analogue tones, making for a mesmerising arrangement. The looped "Yuzu" closes out the release in relentless fashion.

Review: Following on from 2020's Worldwide Ravers release on Rekids, Theo Nasa drops a dance floor-friendly three-tracker for sub-label RSPX. "Nina's Trippin" is a lithe, angular workout, full of acid lines and reverberating vocal samples, while on "She's A Manoeuvre", Nasa draws from a different set of influences. Featuring vocal samples again, this time these soulful utterances are deployed against the backdrop of dense, rolling drums and a spiky rhythm. Changing direction, the UK producer embarks on a darker direction for "Dance Like Your Dodging Bullets". Led by a steely rhythm and machine gun percussive volleys, it's a sleek, functional slice of dance floor techno.

Review: Will Kinsella aka Hybrasil continues his fine run of releases on Rekids with this impactful EP. Issued on the label's Special Projects offshoot, it starts with the title track's steely drums and intense thunder claps. "Abhean" also sees Kinsella deploy relentless percussion but in this instance, it provides the basis for a looped chord stab and eerie background noises. "Erimon" is less intense, but still packs a powerful punch thanks to its murky bass and relentless waves of percussion. Meanwhile, closing track "Oenach" offers a somewhat different perspective on club techno thanks to its Rob Hood style organ riffs and firing minimal groove.

Review: With releases on Tronic and his own RX imprint to his credit, Gokce Ozer aka Procombo now surfaces on Rekids sub-label RSPX with a storming EP. "Glow" is a frenetic track, powered by an insistent rhythm, razor sharp percussion and features a cavernous chord riff throughout. On "Chi Town", Ozer takes influence from the city that the title references, specifically its ghetto techno heritage. Featuring a high octane, jacking rhythm and a spliced up vocal sample, it's a fitting tribute to classic Dance Mania. In contrast is the title track: it's a slower affair where Procombo delivers a repetitive, steel-plated rhythm, while Steve Rachmad dons his Sterac guise for the finale, a high-paced, relentless remix of the title track.
