Elektrax Music – 2010’s Harbingers Of The Sound Of Now

For me, over the past 18 months, one of the more inspiring label bosses and foresighted individuals working within the techno/tech-house realm of things has been Simon Nielsen, aka DJ Hi-Shock, who’s based in Sydney, Australia.

He runs several labels including two I’ve worked with myself (Elektrax Recordings and Hypnotic Room) and two I haven’t but which I really dig (Android Muziq, Elektrax Progressive and the newly-established Gynoid Audio imprint) – as do a lot of other people, if you check out their comments pages and the responses they’re getting to their new releases.

D.A.V.E. the Drummer: To The Beat of the Drum

We recently got the chance to interview D.A.V.E. the Drummer again on the back of a superb new mix compilation he’s just done for Elektrax Recordings, titled Seriously Techno – done, as he reports, “Using Traktor and a CD player in the studio” – and he has simple hopes for the release, a limited edition affair of 300 copies only, all individually numbered: “I hope people like it – and I hope they get into the tracks,” he says.

Of the tracks inserted into this scintillating mix, the man has a few personal favorites. “Well, mine of course, but from the others I liked Flag 75’s ‘Over Again’ track a lot – it’s very old school, kind of Fine Audio sounding.”

1 on 1 with V1NZ

V1NZ got his start in New York City. Outlaw parties held in warehouses and parks along with events at Roseland Ballroom quickly turned his interest from bands such as Sonic Youth and Nine Inch Nails, to Jeff Mills, Surgeon, and other pioneers in the techno scene.

He comes highly recommended by none other than Proper NYC label manager and one of the best proper-minimal techno producers around, Steve Stoll.

When we first heard his music it became clear that Vin shares the same vision as our labels and loves techno music as much as we do.

Interview with Paul Mac

British DJ/producer Paul Mac has been one of the most consistent and more innovative people we’ve had our eyes on (and ears out for) well nigh on almost two decades now.

Both for his individual work and his cuts with Ben Sims, Mac has scintillated most people’s senses, kept abreast of the changing times, and set his own musical standards, on superlative labels like Bush, Axis, Kanzleramt, Wetmusik, Primevil, and Sims’ Ingoma and Theory Recordings.

Now add Elektrax Recordings to that indomitable list.

Patrick Pulsinger gets priceless

“I’ve always tried to escape from the style question – for a good reason. I’ve never found an answer that would satisfy me, nor would one appropriately fit the music I make. It’s not because I want to be different or weird or anything, but I just don’t believe in categories so much,” says Patrick Pulsinger in gloriously evasive mode. When I infer that he has to answer the question – for instance if he were pressed into a corner and forced to confess under great duress – Pulsinger does relent.

“Before someone threatened to kill me to make talk, I guess I would say it’s techno!” he laughs.
