As much as an inheritor of braindance, Alako is an interpreter of the style. Nothing is overdone on this debut, instead, an equilibrium is found between frenetic noodling and subtle shifts.

Digitizer :: Future Technology (Pulse Drift)
This is electro that knows the past but isn’t restricted by it, a release that tells of a cold future that might lack warmth but doesn’t lack bite.
Robyrt Hecht :: Type EF (Clear Memory)
Modern electro can often be a stony-faced affair. This 12” is anything but. Energy-filled and diverse, Type EF is a celebration of a sound rather than a strict and stoical following of a style.
WE FORFEIT :: Radio Relativa #18 mayo
Diggin’ into some past favorites. Gems, care of Martin Haringer of Das M and Gimmik fame alongside the cracking Toytronic, are unearthed with Gimmik now back releasing on n5MD/Hidden Reality.
Humanoid :: sT8818r Humanoid (De:tuned)
A record that once again proves the dynamism of early techno and never die attitude of the TB303.
WE FORFEIT :: Radio Relativa #17 LIVE @ Femur & Friends w/ Arch & Juanpablo (Frigio)
With their first gig since January 2020, WE FORFEIT were delighted and more than ready when asked to share the hallowed Specka stage (with a brand new Funktion 1 sound system) with Arch and Juanpablo.
Atonal :: Bridge (Cold Blow)
Cerebral and comforting with a certain degree of distance and even sadness washing over some compositions. Machine music where emotion and feeling are the focus.
WE FORFEIT :: Radio Relativa #16 marzo
After skulling flagons down the park and staying up ’till eleven, the lads got back to the records.
Skuggministeriet :: Caged (Femur)
Although Caged may be the title of this 12”, the sounds are anything but. Karlsson has harnessed the rawness of Celldöd and allowed himself to explore something different through more mellow and rounded tones with just a touch of sting in the percussive tail.
