Premiere: Maksim Dark and Diatonik Collab For Latest Jannowitz Records EP, Complete With Transcodes and The Reason Y Remixes

/in , , /by

With its newest release, Jannowitz Records is sticking to the tried and true. Dub Space is an EP compiled of four weapons, and the original creators of these weapons are no others than Maksim Dark and Diatonik.

Both have been part of the label for quite some time, with Maksim making his first appearance in 2016 (remixing Joseph Disco’s “Bodymoves”) and Diatonik in 2017 (remixing Touchtalk’s “Rescue”). Since then, both have become regulars on the labels, working closely together with Jannowitz label head BOHO and being two of the main players ensuring the imprint’s success.

Now they’ve joined forces to create what can easily be the heaviest release this year. Because if you’ve followed both artists you may know that they’re known for proper techno, driving beats, strong kicks, progressive sound, and a futuristic vibe.

Premiere: Raul Facio Lands on Jannowitz Records With Remixes by Mr. Bizz and George Adi

/in , , /by

It’s unusual for Jannowitz Records to release an EP with only one original mix, but when it happens, of course, it means that there’s one hell of a track that can stand by itself.

This is exactly what happened when Raul Facio sent “Cid Cid” to the label. At only 19 years he has already released on Dubfire’s Sci-Tec, Stefano Noferini’s Deeperfect and Sian’s Octopus Records. All quite impressive, considering that he’s also touring regularly and playing the clubs in his home state Texas as well as some of the most renowned clubs in the U.S. such as Output in Brooklyn.

Premiere: Three of India’s Best Producers Combine for “India Calling” EP on Jannowitz Records

/in /by

India is calling this time of the year at Jannowitz Records, and for this release they have gathered three of India’s finest producers to serve you what they call the India Calling EP.

Let’s start in the east of the billion people country. You should remember Ash Roy. The Calcutta based artist was the one mixing this year’s Circle Compilation just a few weeks ago. For Jannowitz’s May release he contributed a track that will remind you of the old rave days with driving synth lines and forward stomping kicks. His remixer, Ben Champell, gave it a much darker touch. Ben is debuting on Jannowitz Records with his remix after releasing on labels like Ballroom Music and Blufin Records and mixing a Jannowitz podcast some weeks ago in the past.

Premiere: Listen to Maksim Dark’s “Industrial Strength” on Jannowitz Records

/in /by

Maksim Dark is conquering the techno world rapidly, and it’s not hard to see why

Previously Maksim had worked for Sci-Tec, Octopus and Senso, but now he is already back on Jannowitz. Radium War is his first solo EP in Cologne. If you have been following his releases you will not be surprised by the flair that “Radium War”, the name-giving track, and “Industrial Strength” convey: Dark, evil, slowly pushing forward with a pounding and menacing bass, tight percussions and his signature male vocals.

The shifting frequencies in the synth-melody of both tracks round them off and make them two of Maksim’s most intense and interesting tracks yet, with “Industrial Strength” being slightly more floor sweeping and “Radium War” being the groovier one.

Premiere: Eric Louis Contributes “Doorway To The Sun” Single to Jannowitz’ Circle Compilation

/in /by

A circle is endless. There is no beginning and no defined end. And whilst there has been a beginning for Jannowitz Records, there is no foreseeable end whatsoever. That is why the Circle compilation could not fit better to the current situation of the Cologne based label. For this particular Compilation. Jannowitz main freaks BOHO selected artists and some banger tracks to celebrate the staircase to heaven that we are climbing at this very moment.

US underground DJ Eric Louis from New York contributes two tracks to the compilation — “West Side Highway” and “Doorway To The Days” — that contain exciting build ups, distorted patterns and hi-hats that give both tracks a dark and evil touch.
