Review: Ola Bergman has been releasing electronic music for almost twenty years, with his work gracing respected labels like Abstract Forms, Brokntoys and Stilleben. Now he debuts on Solar One with an excellent electro four-tracker. "Aerobahn" resounds to stripped back, acid-soaked drums, while Bergman brings his melodic sensibilities to bear on the floating, atmospheric "Jacobian Determinant". On "Dirac Spinor", Bergman venture down a darker path: accompanied by malevolent bass and eerie synth lines, it sees the Swedish producer reach a paranoid, Rother-esque destination. "Julius Mosca" is also of a darker disposition, but its low-slung rhythm is more redolent of Gerald Donald's spooky Zwischenwelt project.

Review: Activated is Jensen Interceptor aka Mikey Melas' fifth EP of 2019 and sees the fast-rising producer drop more electro heat. Focusing on 4/4s, the title track and "Contact" resound to menacing bass-lines and spooky synth stabs, which unfold over steely drums. On "Dirrekt Lift", a collaboration with German producer Das Muster, the balance shifts back towards a more typical electro shuffle, albeit with the same dark tones as the first two tracks. "Inverse Light" sees Melas move towards the kind of layered, abstract territories that Drexciya used to inhabit, while closing track "Last Night" is a high-paced electro funk workout, shrouded in an air of mystery.

Review: Artwork of the week goes to this Solar One 12", with the label enlisting Lowlands don Mehdi Rouchiche to work his Godspill magic on the collective talents of Helena Hauff, Perseus Traxx, The Exaltics, Drvg Cvltre and Ekman. Perseus Traxx's moustache is quite something! These artists join forces for the Signs Of Decay 12", a powerful collective statement on the desiccation some "hard and dirty acid tracks" can do to a dancefloor. Don't come here looking for any lofty concepts, this is just five of the best banging their boxes in the name of all that is grotty and lysergic. Fans of Hauff's Panzerkreuz material will be delighted with the demonic, red lining sounds of her contribution "Culmination Of Frustration."

Review: The hotly tipped Golden Pudel resident Helena Hauff joins forces with Andreas Gehm for a release on The Exaltics label. Unlike much of the output on Solar One, this four-tracker ignores electro in favour of a more malevolent sound. "Rupture" sets the tone for what is to come, its grainy beats and heavy claps marking out the relentless rhythm track approach that both artists have decided on. However, by the next track, "The Purely Painful Confrontation Of Opposites" it becomes clear that the duo want to fry their audience's brains with the most aggressive 303s since DJ Skull. "HKX" is just as punishing and "Solar Two" ends the split release with malevolent, pounding acid-fuelled beats.

Review: Elec Pt1 becomes the latest collaborator in The Exaltics Meets series following prior introductions to Morphology and Gosub. For the uninitiated, Elec Pt1 was part of Bunker Records' second coming, originally '90s acid house label based out of the Hauge, said to have funded their earlier releases with "money made from selling LSD (silver surfers!)". German speakers will be able to decipher Elec Pt1's "Drei Chinesen Mit Dem Acidbass", a potential retrospective nod to Bunker's (now legendary) "acid planet" squat parties. A flabby kick, crushed hats and white noise sounding more like a baby robot tantrum than synthesis opens "The Party", before unexpected doo-doo-doo vocals become the tracks centrepiece. The Exaltics opens his side of the 12" with throbbing drums and hardedge acid in "The Midnight Connexion", which later gives way to uplifting chords. Acid and breakneck drum loops make up "Nichts Aber Auch Nichts" which also receives some euphoric synth treatment.
