Review: Stockholm Ltd was one of the first labels to release the work of Juan Pablo Pfirter - and after a long absence, he returns to Par Grindvik's imprint. As befits an artist whose own platform is called MindTrip, "Defiance" is a psychedelic affair. Based on a stepping rhythm and clattering percussion, it features rainy day filters, growling vocals and a subtle sense of menace throughout. On "Coherence", the Argentinean producer heads down a more linear route; the kicks are straight, steely hi hats maintain the streamlined approach and snares roll beneath the surface, reminding us all of Pfirter's ability to go for the dance floor jugular.

Review: Laval follow up last year's Cold Hearts album on P?r Grindvik's Stockholm Ltd label with this killer EP. Despite being named after a desert, "Sahara" is an ice cold stepper, its frosty synths and spiky rhythms ushering in a gurgling acid line that accompanies the track's soaring builds and drops. "Antechrist" follows a straighter approach, with tough drums underpinning the atmospheric hooks at the track's centre. It demonstrates that the French pair is adept at managing the feat of balancing depth with force. The title track goes down a similar route, with rolling beats underpinning wave upon wave of gentle, undulating melody lines - again a near perfect fusion of strength and musicality.

Review: This is Grindvik's sole release this year, but it has been worth the wait. Supposedly inspired by 'current events, politics, and people in his surroundings', it isn't a typical techno record. "Trails" is an expansive affair, with woozy melodies unravelling over clicking percussion and broken beats. It's far less direct than is normal for the Swedish artist's music, but it also shows that his sound is evolving, not staying in the same place. "The Right To Be Forgotten" is just as left of centre. It too features broken beats - albeit accompanied by sharper, leaner percussion - as well as a sonorous, moody bass that works its way gradually through the arrangement. It's an evocative record from an artist whose development is a joy to witness.

Review: Laval is a collaboration between French veteran Electric Rescue and Kmyle, which earlier this year yielded an EP for Stockholm Ltd. Now the pair comes with a more developed release. "Nebula" and "Veil of Mist" are deep, reflective pieces of mood music, while on "Dina Goldschack", they delve into atmospheric dub techno. Despite these flirtations with other sounds, they also deliver with a direct approach and "Our Turn" and "Forest Murder" resound to chilling textures as well as club-primed linear rhythms. On "TT 107", the pair diversify again with a menacing, stepping rhythm, but as "No Hypocrisy" shows, rolling, tripped out grooves are really their forte.

Review: After a release earlier this year for Weekend Circuit, it looks like Par Grindvik has settled again at Stockholm Ltd, his own label. Following on from the Aged EP comes The Game. It's an intriguing release that, like much of the material on the label, doesn't fall into a distinct category. "Wall to Wall" is pared back and mysterious sounding, like a close cousin of Bodycode, while on "Private Life", the Swedish producer delivers a deep, dense chord-heavy affair, its synths murmuring their way over a rolling groove. "Demand" sees a similar approach applied to a more peak-time approach, while on "Front Row (The Game)" Grindvik surprises again, with a mid-tempo groove that features evocative soundscapes.

Review: Since the 90s, Par Grindvik's label has been following an unpredictable path and this is audible on its latest split compilation. Patch Two starts with Z.I.P.P.O's dreamy "Fabula", which features the wispy vocals of Gabriella Vergilov. By contrast, Laval's "Spitshine" sees the release veer towards the dance floor, resulting in a thundering tribal affair that revolves around heavy kicks and a dark, tranced out riff. Z.I.P.P.O changes gear on the firing rhythm and relentless, dense hi hats of the Rob Hood-style minimalism of "Cycle", while on "Incoming Goods", Jeff Rushin takes down the tempo but maintains the moody atmosphere thanks to some menacing bass stabs and eerie tonal bleeps. Rounding off this brilliantly off centre release is the thundering, Polygon Window-sounding techno of Oliver Rosemann's "Then We Will Fight In The Shade".

Review: Par Grindvik's label is one of the few to successfully fuse techno with experimentation - and the latest release on Stockholm Ltd, by Peder Mannerfelt, showcases this approach.The Scandinavian artist expertly manages to juggle both approaches. On "Obey" he manifests itself through rolling percussive drums and muffled drones, like the call to war of a medieval army. "Stream of Time" is more dance floor friendly; focused on a jacking, stepping rhythm and crashing cymbals it sees Mannerfelt unleash recycled rave stabs and wave upon wave of malevolent, noisy riffs. For those who like techno with an off centre approach, Obey is a vital release.

Review: It turns out that the latest release on Stockholm Ltd is auto-biographical. The label's owner, Par Grindvik, has written and recorded an EP about growing older within a scene that stays forever young. It explains why "London Marble" and "One Day" are so evocative, alternating between spaced out, slow-burning acidic pulses, glitch percussion and beautiful textures, sampled from nature. That said, the Swedish producer still knows how to knock out dance floor tracks; there's the glitchy minimalism of "Fair View House" and the dubby, hypnotic "Magnolia", while on "Hold You", he unleashes his own version of Valhalla, with an abrasive, jarring 909 workout.

Review: Following the release of his debut album last year on Black Sun, Robin De Wolf aka Phara returns with a four-tracker for Par Grindvik's label. Paramount One is a real mixed bag. At one end of the spectrum, there's the shimmering, glitchy sound scapes on the title track, while at the opposing end, "Mordecai" sounds like a modern update of Dave Clarke's "Red" techno menace. De Wolf continues to surprise with "Shee", where tough break beats support spaced-out synth stabs. Finally, on "LSK-500", he strips away all musical elements to deliver a masterclass in tough, drum-heavy techno that has echoes of DJ Shufflemaster.

Review: The latest release on Par Grindvik's long-running label is a diverse techno record. First up is
Tor Lowkrantz aka Mighty Thor with "All The Shadows", a pumping, bleep-heavy track that fuses the hypnotic Sandwell sound with a groovy undercurrent. DJ Redo's "Barrel of Fish" is a more abstract affair, with clattering percussion driving a dense, stop-start groove. The long-serving German producer Savas Pascalidis steers the release back to the dance floor with the building chords and rolling rhythm of "Synergy", but unpredictably, the release ends with the stripped back, understated minimal house of Border One's "Operate".

Review: Listen to some tracks from Exu with the blinds down and you'd be forgiven for forgetting that we're in the middle of the summer. "The Random Eye (Introspective)" starts this mini-album with hypnotic drones; "Off (Futurespective)" is full of creepy textures and "1,000 Exuspective" sees Kronert makes the kind of dark ambient Haxan Cloak is lauded for. Kronert also knows his way around a dance floor groove and "Into the Zone" is a killer DBX-style minimal house track, while "Code 2" sees him opt for a more up to date sound, its stepping rhythm haunted by the dark textures that lurk in the shadows throughout Exu.
