Dekmantel 2016: Essential Guide

As we still can’t enjoy the power of ubiquity, and if you’re a bit lost when looking at all the wonders on display, here’s our essential guide to Dekmantel 2016, from the most obvious picks to the perhaps lesser known greats who’ll get to mess with your body and mind for four days of sheer chill and ecstatic dancing.

Terraforma: A World For The Senses

The mystical bond between nature and sound has proven once again that music is not only something you hear but a physical vibration that shakes both the earth and skies in one go. Terraforma gave birth to an idyllic world free of the bourns that would impede its expansion to weave the sound and universe as one.

Scott Young: Homeless

With just one EP for Sling & Samo’s Born Free imprint under his belt, Scott Young emerged as an intriguing new figure in the house and techno landscape. His two-faced new outing on Berlin-based Discos Capablanca follows the same volatile vein.

Video Premiere: Mor Elian – Drum Vortex

Israeli producer Mor Elian is now back with her second instalment ‘Drum Vortex’, an alluring four-tracker featuring two original mixes and another pair of reworks courtesy of Dekmantel mainstay Joey Anderson and Exile co-founder Markus Suckut. Watch the video for the lead-track now.

Premiere: D. Futers – Never Givin’ Up

Inaugurating a new branch to Natural Sciences ever expanding family tree – the yet again cetacean-emblazoned Dolphin Traxx subdivision, UK-based producer D. Futers takes over with a catchy two-tracker fusing the best of garage-bass, breakbeat and house. Stream ‘Never Givin’ Up’ within.

Bell Towers: I’m Coming Up

Since the drop of his ‘Lightrail’ EP on Public Possession three years ago, Melbourne-born producer Rohan Bruce aka Bell Towers became a vital player in the Munich family. ‘I’m Coming Up’ makes for his sixth instalment on the label and without a doubt, stands as one of his most accomplished slices to date.
