Há gajos com sorte, ponto. Gajos como eu e outros mais que já tiveram a oportunidade e o privilégio de poder desfrutar deste "A Descent into the Maelström" ( Shhpuma , 2013), novíssimo disco dos Albatre , um projecto sediado em Roterdão, na Holanda, e dinamizado por Hugo Costa (saxofone alto e loops), Gonçalo Almeida (baixo eléctrico e electrónicas) e Philipp Ernsting (bateria e electrónicas). E não é exagero, há mesmo gajos com sorte; mesmo. "A Descent into the Maelström" é um disco cheio de complexidades, um disco cheio [...]
A pseudo-countdown of top picks and underrated favourites, this year's crate of tracks have never been so contradictory. With dance music shedding its latest claim to fame, the base has gone to the drawing board to define, create, and take the road less traveled by. Things got a little weird, but regardless of the differences in tempo and groove, it all sort of made sense as it represented a common approach of making it for the work and not the pay check. There's no set formula, no sample pack, no plugin with a preset to land you a spot and that [...]

Maelstrom , le talentueux producteur français qui ne cesse de monter est sur le point de sortir un nouvel EP sur le prestigieux label de Boys Noize, BNR Trax ! Catharsis est le deuxième EP du français sur ce label, qui avait précédemment sorti Tanger EP il y a près d'un an. Cette fois ci il nous revient donc avec trois nouveaux morceaux, annonciateurs d'une suite puisque « Part 13. Catharsis reste dans la ligne de conduite de Maelstrom, entre brutalité et subtilités mélodieuses. Voici donc les premiers extraits de cet EP [...]
Maelstrom happens to be one of our favorite rising techno artists. It's no coincidence that he has releases on Sound Pellegrino , ZONE , and BNR , some of techno's most prestigious labels - the dude's got talent and he doesn't hide it. His uSSR EP on Sound Pellegrino is one of our techno releases of the year thus far, and we're excited to see what he's up to in the future. Today BNR released his remix of Boys Noize and Erol Alkan 's Brain Storm for free. It's a brain [...]

Before his string of Australian shows the big bad French techno warrior Maelstrom , who has seen releases on BoysNoize Records and Sound Pellegrino was kind enough to give us a buzz on a few burning questions we had to ask. A bit of banter later we ended up hearing about his favourite Australian sounds, not giving a shit about the negativity currently surrounding dance music and scaring women away with his music! Dates and a stream of his most recent EP 'Generation' below. SR - Which artists have influenced your music [...]

French bred techno-boar Maelstrom will return to Australia this July for the 'Generation' tour!

Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne will be the recipients of a true French sound with dates scattered throughout mid to late July. Local techno droogs Motorik [...]

Maelstrom hails from Nantes and should be considered one of the most interesting names in the French music scene at the moment, today he follows up last years Sound Pellegrino release "USSR" with new EP "Generation" (released on Zone). Discobelle got the exclusive premiere of this mixtape from Maelstrom to celebrate the release. A mixtape that showcases his ability to seamlessly blend together UK bass, dark and deep beats, techno with the sounds of the French and American scenes. Tracklist after the jump. [...]

Maelstrom 's USSR EP is out now via Sound Pellegrino minimal, old school, groovy

The previous month has seen some hyped releases on the "Big-H" labels with the likes of Scuba's album naturally on Hotflush, Burial's Ep unspurpringly on Hyperdub and Objekt's 2-side single deservingly on Hessle. We've also seen a delayed return from Untold's Hemlock label with a very interesting Randomer EP. Coincidences? Almost certainly. Tracks from the aforementioned feature alongside my other picks of the month in a bpm twiddling mix. Although strictly speaking there are a couple in there from January which I missed but had to put in due to their magnificence (two tracks from Todd Terje's "Its The Arps" [...]
Revenge of the Synth: V from SoundLogik on 8tracks . We are music fiends. We breathe it. We live it. We sit listening hours on end - analyzing, re-analyzing, nitpicking, downloading, creating - all in all gaining knowledge about the thing that makes us click. But what is it all worth? In a societal sense it's worth whatever someone will pay. But in a more intrinsic sense, it's much more. It's healing, happiness, exercise, hope, satisfaction.. And it's a shame that there are those who don't understand what good music is and what it [...]

Oh yeah, Paris does it again. The Maelstrom "USSR" EP is out now on premier dance music label Sound Pellegrino , Boston Bun flips this one on its head. These synths will melt your brain.

Sound Pellegrino hit back with another doozy in the form of French producer Maelstrom and his house infused, Miami bass laden, exotic techno record USSR . Neither hailing from nor ever visited (I assume) the Soviet Union, Maelstrom finds the menace inside, channelling the historic, hideous regime and delivers the title track with merciless relent. The remixes from South African starlet Aero Manyelo and dark electronic pop wizard The Hacker are the pick of the bunch. Continuing what is a rather large release, the originally titled 'House Music' backs up from the darker [...]
