Review: Claudio PRC follows 2022's Challenger Deep on Delsin with another psychedelic take on techno. "Celotex" starts the EP in hypnotic mode as tripped out acid lines are fused with atmospheric, sweeping synths. "Opaque" sees him explore similar territory. The gurgling 303s are audible again - this time they unfold over nickel-plated percussion and a throbbing groove. "Monotex" is more pared back. It sees the Italian producer lay down a linear rhythm that acts as the basis for steely hi hats and a tranced-out melody line. Shifting tempos, "Latent" is a dubbed out, chugging groove that resounds to angelic synths.

Review: For almost a quarter century, Delsin has been putting out some of the world's best electronic music. That situation didn't change in 2023. As this compilation demonstrates, the label still has an unerring knack of releasing music from the more esoteric end of the spectrum. Reedale Rise and VC-118A both deliver atmospheric strains of electro. On "Late Night Kyiv", Yan Cook pushes towards the dance floor to deliver an emotive tribute to his hometown. The compilation also consolidates Delsin's connection to Dutch artists. Steffan Robbers' Terrace project yields the emotive "Model A", while Eevo Lute co-founder Wladimir M drops the understated pulses and mysterious vocals of "Zie Het Onder Ogen / Y Faire Face". And Steve Rachmad shines as always, with the seductive Detroit techno of "Teknitron".

Review: Atomic Moog, the French production duo and live act, makes an impressive debut on the Delsin Cameron series with their Programm EP. Having navigated the deep techno landscape since about 2015, they have consistently delivered affective dancefloor techno for labels like Lowless, Subosc, and Monument. In their latest venture with Delsin, Atomic Moog unveils the next chapter of their modular exploration, with tracks on this EP showcasing a masterful blend of sub-heavy beats, pulsating rhythms and spaced-out atmospheres. Classic deep techno like it should be.

Review: Working together as RVSHES, Dylan Brownsword and James Parker land on Delsin to deliver the twelfth instalment in the Mantis series. On the first "Mts Rhs", the duo conjures up a dreamy, abstract arrangement, while a darker exploration of this approach is audible on number three. A similar sensibility prevails on the second instalment, but this time the focus is on the dance floor thanks to a lithe groove and slinky drums. The fourth "Mts Rhs" manages to strike a seamless balance between club use and more abstract tendencies. At its heart are grinding, rolling drum patterns. After that intense sound, the fifth and sixth volumes provide some relief courtesy of tweaked acid and shuffling beats.

Review: Liverpool-based Reedale Rise has launched a four-track EP, presenting an innovative and emotionally rich approach to electro music. Following previous releases on respected labels such as Frustrated Funk and 20:20 Vision, the EP solidifies Simon Keat's position as a leader in the contemporary electro scene. The tracks range from the ethereal melodies of "Littoral Zone" to the introspective atmospheres of "Artemia", with intricate layers and skillful production evident throughout. Keat's ability to evoke powerful emotions in listeners sets him apart, creating tracks that resonate deeply.

Review: Following on from last year's collaborative long player with R?dh?d, Vril flies solo on this return visit to Delsin. United by deep sound design throughout, the long player shifts effortlessly between styles. From the cavernous dub techno of "Love Rollout" and the shimmering chords of "Boom To The Moon", to the gritty electro swagger of "Terraformink" and "Zukunftsstrasse", Animist is a flawlessly executed work. That's not to suggest that Vril has produced a work that is too glossy or stylised; "Unwelt" resounds to gritty percussion and drums, while the sub-bass tones of "Anomal Beta" bristles with a sense of menace that would be hard to find in a dub techno record.

Review: More than a quarter century after it was first released, Steve Rachmad's Q under his Parallel 9 alias get reissued. Back in the mid-90s, dub techno sound was still an emerging form, with only the Basic Channel-Chain Reaction axis and a few other outliers like Iceland's Thule focused on this style. Across three tracks, Rachmad demonstrates how, during this early period, he weas able to translate this sound to the dance floor. The extended "Quanah" resounds to dubbed out chords and an insistent organ, while on "Quantico", the Dutch producer fuses enveloping dub textures with a rolling, looped groove. "Quadrus" is the most understated track, with Rachmad fusing ghostly chords with an insistent electronic bass and nagging hi hats.

Review: Over the past few years, Stefan Robbers has enjoyed a productive partnership with Delsin, with the Dutch label releasing a retrospective of his work as Florence as well as a series of Eps under his Terrace name. As is always the case with Robbers's work, there is a strong focus on the future, and Cocoonings is no different. "Janeiro Joy" is a sparse, robotic workout, powered by stop-start rhythms and warbling bass, while on "Bass Star", the seminal Dutch producer takes a trip to a similar star system as Lost Trax to deliver an acid-soaked electro roller. Best of all though is "Cocoons", where he drops the kind of breathy but forceful techno funk that the Terrace project has always been synonymous with.

Review: Brendon Moeller has released before on the Ann Aimee offshoot, but this time he lands on the Delsin mothership with an EP that spans a range of styles. "Poly Mod" is a lively, abstract affair, with Moeller layering dubby chords over a tingling rhythm and a cavernous bass, while on "Route", he teases out a more understated version of this sound. The title track sees Moeller pivot towards the dance floor, with a groove that's powered by steely drums and swirling filters, while on "Refrigeration", he goes deeper, deploying a muddy bass to guide the listener through a nocturnal soundscape. The ticking percussion and repetitive tones of "Motor" and "Invocation For Station Q" round off this fine release.

Review: When Sterac's Secret Life of Machines was reissued in 2012, it did not contain some of the key tracks from the pioneering 90s long player. Now Delsin has stepped into the breach to put out what are arguably the album highlights on one EP. In contrast to much of Secrets, "Hydroxy" is an understated electro workout - but its common bond with the rest of the album is its sense of melancholia. This sensibility also shines through on the reflective, string-soaked "Draghixia", while Sterac takes melody and depth to spellbinding new heights on the soaring electronic soul of "Satyricon" - one of the greatest tracks of its generation.

Review: Delsin re-ignites its Inertia club series with a fine EP from Lennart Wiehe. Unlike many dance floor techno releases, Amb-Kombat is a sophisticated affair that covers a range of styles. It moves from the breathy, sound scapes and understated back beats of "30C Weisse Waesche" to "Golf", where Wiehe drops a dense tribal workout powered by dense kicks and loose percussive patterns. "N-Kombat" sees him go deeper again, but this time in a more dance floor direction, as chiming chords are combined with powerful, steely drums. Rounding off the release, the German producer heads back towards a percussive techno approach on "Rauchen", where he combines layered drum patterns with repetitive bass tones to create a killer club track.

Review: What a year it's been for Delsin. Apart from reissuing classics like the peerless techno of Sterac's "X-Tracks", the label has also cast its gaze far and wide when it comes to releasing new music. This approach has yielded the icy ambience of Vril's "Alte Seele", Artefakt's bubbling, downtempo techno groove "Iridescence" and the hypnotic, mid-tempo drums of Dino Sabatini's "Lewa". On a different tip is Jason Wynters' frenetic electro workout, "The Hunted", while Claudio PRC's "Orakle" pushes Delsin into a somewhat darker direction than usual, courtesy of its murky rhythms. Of course, it wouldn't be a Delsin compilation without some deeper sounds, which are in abundance here courtesy of two other fine reissues - the chiming chords of Parallel 9's "Helix" and Connective Zone's dreamy "Seed".

Review: The mysterious Lost Trax collective follow up 2019's Surface Treated on Delsin with this dance floor-focused release. "Bring You Back" is a full-on acid track, led by bleeding 303 lines and crashing snares. Meanwhile, on "In Pursuit", they explore a similar approach, this time with 303s accompanied by mysterious synths and cavernous effects. "Under A Spell" represents the other side of Lost Trax and sees them focus on a pared back rhythm, with steely hi hats underpinning bleary synths, and "Mind Over Matter" is similarly esoteric, with frequency shifting tones unravelling over a wiry Detroit groove. It's another exemplary release from one of techno's most inspired acts

Review: Originally issued on revered UK label Emoticon back in 2002, Qwerty finally gets a much-needed reissue on Delsin. Straddling deep techno, electro and abstract influences, it's not hard to understand why this four-tracker has remained a deep electronic classic for the past two decades. "Dude" is based on a gentle back beat and warm bass tones, providing the basis for floating synths, while "Seed" sees Connective Zone combine warbling acid lines with ghostly pads and skipping drums. The title track leans more towards electro thanks to its broken beats, while "Sea Breeza" rounds off the release with a pulsating bass and steely kicks, delivering a masterclass in deep techno.

Review: Originally released back in 1995, Parallel 9 is a side project from techno innovator Steve Rachmad, and this two-tracker is the first material that he released under this pseudonym. Re-issued on Delsin, both tracks have really stood the test of time: "Helix" is a rolling track with a hypnotic, dubby rhythm at its heart and swathed in swirling synths. Meanwhile on "Gnosis", Rachmad opts for a tougher approach: led by barrelling beats and doubled up claps, it makes for a more clubby version of the dub techno that Basic Channel were pioneering around the same time. Hopefully this re-release will ensure that Rachmad enjoys the same type of adulation that the output on Moritz Van Oswald's label commands.

Review: With releases on Ornate and Don't Be Afraid already in his catalogue, Jayson Wynters opens his account for Delsin. At times favouring a darker approach on the release than the label's deep style, this is nonetheless an expertly crafted EP. Wynters drops the high-paced, steely rhythm of "The Hunted" and opts for a more linear sound on the moody, tribal "Crypto". Peppered with moody blips and tones, it's a real heads-down, peak-time affair. On "Trace Minerals", the UK producer invokes the spirit of Delsin's in-house style, with a pulsating bass underpinning atmospheric strings and eerie synths, while "Tehutis Law" charts a similar trajectory, powered by a wiry, Motor City bass.

Review: Simon Walley aka CiM was instrumental in introducing a new, left field slant to techno during the 90s. This compilation, which is culled from his archives, shows why he continues to be an influential force in electronic music. Unselected oscillates between home-listening tracks like "Metric" and "Throughput" into more dance-floor focused compositions like the Detroit nuances of "Accent One" and the early Black Dog hues of "Example". Even when Walley operates in more abstract spaces, as he does on the dissected drums and tonal blips of "Jex Fill" and the frenetic "Crash", his work maintains a soulful, machine-led undercurrent, marking him out as a truly pioneering producer.

Review: Through aliases like Mohalo and Multicast Dynamics circulating the realms of dub techno and ambient, Samuel van Dijk's VC-118a alias has always been the producer's safe harbour for electro. Keeping his beats dubby and atmospheres deep in Spiritual Machines, VC-118a's fourth album for Delsin (and first following Inside from 2019), presents a distinct connection with glitch, crackle and pop, with transmogrified vocals peppered throughout the LP. By creating his own complement of sample banks, software racks and devices in making the LP, van Dijk was able to work with a hybridised analogue-digital system purely of his own making and the results are abstract, downtempo and hugely atmospheric. Dubbed-out ambient electro with a newfound glitch. Quality.

Review: Despite being released a quarter of a century ago, Steve Rachmad's Asphyx release has not grown old. Rachmad was one of the first European producers to make the Detroit template of soulful melodies and dynamic rhythms his own. "Pacifica" and the title track see Rachmad tweak that blueprint to add bubbling, tranced out textures, while on "Darkness In My Life", he articulates a near-perfect fusion of dreamy introspection and rolling drums. But Rachmad reaches nirvana on "X-Tracks" (which for years was mis-titled "Asphyx"), where those unmistakable, swirling melodies will melt even the coldest heart. If you don't already own Asphyx, now is the time to make that change that.
