Review: Throne of Blood continue their sixteenth anniversary celebrations with this fine compilation. Feted UK producer Daniel Avery gets the ball rolling with the deep, textured techno of "Ricochet", while on "Nylon Future", Heidi Sabertooth pushes in a different direction. Powered by a bruising sub-bass and chopped up percussion, these combined elements make for a rousing workout. Que Sakamoto & NT pursue a different electro path; while the rhythm is stripped back, their use of vocal samples and jittery chords sets "Kakegae" apart from typical electro sounds. Shifting gear again, Hoshina Anniversary lower the tempo on "Eiroku", a chugging slice of disco noir.

Review: Throne of Blood continues its 16th anniversary celebrations with this tripped out four-tracker. Pleasure Planet's "Sisters" revolves around a resonating bass and tight percussion, with the production duo adding in some spaced out tones and bleeps for good measure. Danse Alice's "Shivers (extended AdLib version)" favours a different approach; led by fuzzy guitars and a doomy groove, it sounds like a paean to Factory Records. Man Power ups the tempo and intensity levels on "We're Not Computers, Sebastian" to deliver an acid-soaked club banger, while Teleseen's "Sacambu" explores a deep house sound while maintaining a scuffled groove and half-heard vocal samples.

Review: Seminal New York label Throne Of Blood celebrates its 16th anniversary with this fine split release. Veteran French producer Chloe Thevenin of Kill the DJ and Lumi?re Noire fame gets the ball rolling with the dubbed-out disco of "The Foss", while on "Tropical", Liona opts for a more left of centre approach: led by stepping, shuffling drums and muffled vocals, it's a hypnotic, alluring affair. In contrast, Justin Cudmore's "Sunday Lemonade" is a bugged-out acid track, and exactly the kind of material you'd expect the storied DJ to play out. Changing gear once again, label owner Max Pask hooks up with Joakim to deliver the dreamy breakbeats of "Blue Sun".

Review: Sven years ago, Throne of Blood released the debut single from Geordie Geoff Kirkwood under the now familiar Man Power pseudonym. Here he returns to the American imprint for the first time since, keen to show how his production style has developed since then. There's plenty to set the pulse racing throughout, from the trippy, early morning throb of 'Severin', which sounds like a percussion loving techno head's take on Rinder and Lewis' deliciously druggy electro-disco cover of 'Willie and the Hand Jive' (minus the camp vocals), and the acid-fired, synth-laden psychedelic jack of 'Devil's Island', to the rushing, techno-tempo beats, trance style sequenced bass and star-fall synth sounds of closing cut 'Carino'.

Review: Roe Deers' relatively sparse discography to date is quietly impressive, with the pair flitting between mind-altering slow house, psychedelic electronic chuggers, and feverish fare rich in dense, tribal-influenced drums. The three original cuts showcased on the Lithuanian act's first Throne of Blood outing are similarly eccentric. Check first the weirdo guitars, dub disco bass, jumpy electronics and organic house drums of 'Lost Again', before examining the dark and driving creepiness of trippy throb-job 'Young Cats' and the filthy, arpeggio-driven intensity of brain-melting highlight 'Machine'. Remixes are provided of all three cuts, with Jonathan Kusuma's proto-house-goes-dark-disco rub of 'Machine', and Club Tularosa's Acid Arab-esque tweak of 'Young Cats' standing out.

Review: Greek duo Lagasta are up next on James Fucking Friedman's ever reliable Throne Of Blood label, following up that terrific 'Late Summer Compilation Vol.10' (Part II) they self-released just last month. The hazy downbeat balearica of "Steve" is exactly the kind of glassy-eyed and bittersweet music that the late Jose Padilla could have played at Cafe del Mar. It receives some brilliant remixes as part of the package. Mexican duo Zombies In Miami deliver a typically neon-lit rendition, while the mighty Philip Lauer delivers not one but two reworks: the first 'Sanguisuga' version was well on the money, and another fine example of the prolific German producer's idiosyncratic sound.

Review: Hardway Bros is Sean Johnston - DJ, producer and one half of A Love from Outer Space with Andrew Weatherall. He's fast become a staple of James 'Fucking' Friedman's Throne Of Blood imprint with his modern take on classic house music formulas. If it 'aint broke, dont fix it we say - Johnston's winning formula is on show once again with the heads-down acid wiggle of "Friedman Deeback Loop Revision" followed by the metal dance of "The Laser". Then, Maxime Pasquier (Sheik 'N' Beik/Kill The DJ) delivers a bleep nu-disco rendition of "Friedman Feedback Loop Revision" and final offering while "Afro Sirene" goes for a trippy and lo-slung Afro vibe.

Review: German ambient musician Niklas Rehme-Schlueter began releasing music under the name Cass in 2012, creating loop-based compositions with pianos, strings, and other acoustic instruments, as well as field recordings. His new EP for James 'Fucking' Friedman's Throne Of Blood follows up a tremendous album with Dusseldorf's Wolf Muller and you can be sure that "Red Atlantic" is a blissful nu-gaze excursion following in the German tradition of Tangerine Dream, Ulrich Schnauss and Thorsten Quaeschning. The remix up next by man of the moment: Tel Tel Aviv's Autarkic takes it into exotic indie-dance territory and will appeal to fans of Multi Culti and I'm A Cliche. Speaking of which, the label boss of the latter Cosmo Vitelli delivers an absolutely electric remix of "The Voynich Manuscript" up next, which channels a gutsy EBM type of vibe which is in stark contrast to the dreamy and chilled-out balearica of the original.

Review: Kasper Bjorke and Colder's Black Magic EP is what James 'Fucking' Friedman's label describes as 'both brand new and like a return to something powerful, rooted in what came before'. Marc Nguyen Tan's post punk attitude and 'no wave skronk' was honed a long time ago, with a couple of genre-defying releases on Trevor Jackson's short lived Output imprint. Danish producer Kasper Bjorke has long been a fixture on Hamburg's HFN/Hafendisko imprints, in addition to his collaboration with homeboy and Whomadewho frontman Tomas Barfod in the Filur project. Their Black Magic EP now gets some great remixes by the Optimo Music affiliated Golden Filter - who turn in something much more introverted and texturised with their raw rendition of the track. Frenchman Pilooski (Dirty/RVNG Intl) gives it and woozy, spaced-out, Correspondant styled rendition for the afterhour. A gnarly techno version awaits your courtesy of Mutado Pintado of Paranoid London fame too: beware!

Review: Former Output man Marc Nguyen Tan has been pretty active since returning to production after a 10-year absence back in 2015. Here, his revival continues via a collaborative EP alongside similarly experienced Dane Kasper Bjorke. The headline attraction is undoubtedly "Black Magic", a sleazy and occasionally intense workout that wraps ragged acid lines, mind-altering electronics and hushed, new wave style vocals around a blistering post-punk drum pattern. The post-punk influences come to the fore on the decidedly fuzzy "101" and "Real Slow", which is thrillingly unusual and full of all manner of bizarre electronic flourishes and wayward saxophone solos. A couple of raw, stripped-back demo versions complete an impressive EP.

Review: This fine EP marks Luca "Curses" Venezia's return to Throne of Blood after a near three-year absence. Title track "Tutto Nudo" is something of a stylish, late night treat, with Venezia wrapping exotic, post-punk electric guitar melodies around a dark and sweaty nu-disco groove. The warped, late night haziness continues on the raw, sharp and throbbing "Canini", before Venezia drags us further into a rabbit warren of his own creation on the weird and wonderful thrust of "This is All a Dream". Those wanting something a little more bouncy and up-tempo should check Timothy 'Heretic' Clerkin's indie-disco style rub of "Tutto Nudo", while Dreems' deliciously low-slung, analogue-rich version of "Canini" is probably the EP's standout moment.

Review: James 'Fucking' Friedman reckons that in the three years since Moon Rock Volume 1 came out on his New York City based Throne Of Blood imprint, interest and attention in ambient and cosmic music has broadened and deepened. Well, hey that's a fair call and with Moon Rock Volume 4, the label is once again rounding up a shitload of weird-ass kosmische sounds. According to the label, the compilation was conceived in sides; six distinct sets of music that move through a range of styles and sounds, from chill ambient excursions to darker droning noise. Danny Passarella's imaginary soundtrack "Carousel Rising"is guided by a clever use of arpeggio, Tel Aviv indie dance hero Moscoman impresses as always with more cosmic weirdness on The Edge Of The Earth" while Versatile Records legend Gilb'r presents "Arpeggio Island"which doesn't need much explanation. London duo Vactrol Park impress as always with another deep vintage synth exploration on "Islands Of The Delta".
