Review: Orlando Voorn is a true don: when he speaks, house dancefloors listen, and these three new cuts are merely the latest proof. 'Da Learning' itself is a dense, shuffly affair that takes quite an old-school approach in its use of cut-up vocal loops (and indeed loops generally). S'good, but the other two are even better: 'Fun' is big, bouncy and strutty, marrying two very familiar vocal samples to some seriously squelchy bottom end, while 'Hypnotized' proves that you can go a long way with a Belgian techno bassline and a Loose Joints vocal bite even if it IS now 2023, not 1991! Dancing will most definitely ensue.

Review: Dutch techno legend Orlando Voorn has opened up his archive, for the first of what will be an ongoing artist-focused series brought to you by Above Board Projects. Spread across two volumes, the compilation will feature tracks from many of Voorn's pseudonyms including Fix, Baruka, The Ghetto Brothers, Mute and many more. This initial release features the sensual Motor City inspired techno-soul of "Life Beyond The Clouds" featuring vocals by the one and only Blake Baxter (Tresor) and the utterly hypnotic "DX Me Silly" from 1992 which channels the same vibe as fellow legend Robert Hood id around the same period with its linear minimalism.

Review: Dam Swindle may be amongst the most storied Dutch dance producers of their generation, but they know that they owe a lot to trailblazers such as Orlando Voorn, who's near three-decade career has included forays into electro, Detroit style techno futurism, deep house and much more besides. The veteran producer's first EP for the duo's Heist Recordings label is, somewhat predictably, packed with timeless-sounding treats. We're particularly excited by the bumpin', organ-heavy house bounce of 'Tenderness', which sounds like his take on mid-'90s U.S house, but others may prefer the driving, bass-heavy deep house drums, disco string samples and soulful vocal snippets of 'Be With You'. To round off a fine package, Voorn delivers a brilliantly spacey, intergalactic-sounding and subtly dub house-influenced Dub mix of 'Tenderness'.

Review: Bass Agenda Recordings have struck gold with this latest mission as they welcome the explosive production skill sets of Orlando Voorn inside for three hard hitting breaksy originals, jam-packed with originality from start to finish. We begin with the slumberous rhythmic twists and packed out sub sections of 'Hunting Season', a technophone's nightmare, stuffed to the brim with bleeps and crashes. From here, 'Quick Thinking' then delivers something a little more industrial, focussing on pacey bass bumps and skippy drum sweeps, before the emotive melodies and tooting horn lines of 'The Point Of No Return' arrives for a hard hitting finale. Top stuff indeed!

Review: Dutch techno legend Orlando Voorn is back! The man behind such seminal aisses as Fix, Designer Loops and Basic Bastard presents a varied palette of grooves on this album, from the smack electro of opener "Turn Left Right Here" and the fierce "Predators Cave" to the high tech soul of "Lead Me The Right Way" or "Anti Political" (which could have been on Transmat it's so soulful). There's some straight up dancefloor gold too of course, such as on "Chicago By Night" and "In My World" but still carry on with some serious injections of futuristic blues! Highly recommended.

Review: Orlando Voorn has been putting out techno for almost 30 years, but the passage of time has not had an impact on the quality of his output. 2020 saw him release a slew of high-quality Eps and a great artist album; this year looks set to see a similar work rate, and Internal Destination opens his 2021 account in style. It starts with the woozy, deep tones and shuffling drums of "Stuck In My Ways", while on the title track, Voorn drops a melodic, wiry groove, an ode to the Detroit techno influence that looms large on his work. Changing tact again, the veteran producer drops the break beats and tripped out synths of "Ride The Wave".

Review: While Orlando Voorn has always been associated with Detroit-influenced techno, his recent In My World full-length on Rush Hour cast the net wider for musical inspiration. In particular, it contained a number of sparkling deep house cuts. It's this deep house influence that he explores further on this two-tracker for Piston Recordings. He begins with the hazy swing of "Lost In Heaven", where looped cellos and violins mingle with drowsy chords and soft-touch beats. The strings are even more prominent on virtual flipside "Driven", with Voorn's clipped guitars and orchestral motifs rising and falling over a positive, ear-pleasing deep house backdrop.

Review: Dutch techno veteran Orlando Voorn is back on Soul Stage Records, which Voorn has taken over from the late Morgan Anson at the blessing of his family. Yet more lush house, disco and soul infusions that the label describes as "pushing boundaries to make something uncompromising that we can be proud of". From the infectious machine funk of "Never Knew" in its original format, followed by another deep and sensual vocal house remix by the man himself. More reworks come from the late label boss Anson with Blackpool's Luke Neptune, and Paul Donton (of Bombis Records) with a sensual and hypnotic afterhours mix which reaches near tribal moments.

Review: It's been a while since Orlando Voorn dropped an electro EP, and he's chosen one of the most influential labels to release Outerworld on. Trust has been home to luminaries like Clatterbox, Stingray and The Exaltics over the years, so Voorn is in good company. Of course, this four-tracker can also stand on its own merits. It moves from the moody, acid-soaked "Shockwave", into the title track, where he melds dramatic stabs with robust 808s. In contrast, "Reverse Psychology" is more abstract, resounding to a stop-start rhythm, while he ventures to the outer limits on "Space Trap". Underpinned by spaced out tones and loose drums, it's an atmospheric, distinctive jam.
