D-Node 207: Pinion | Perc Trax

Bobby Dowell has a sound that's both dark and human. With releases on Droid, Soma, Slap Jaxx, and elsewhere he's developed an approach that keeps thing moody and moving at the same time. His recent work as Pinion, including a release for Per Trax, adopts an industrial edge, taking the classic feel of screeching materials in heavy friction and driving it with the rhythms of contemporary techno. His mix for D-Node as Pinion takes a walk down that industrial plank, mixing the raw, moving tec...

D-Node 206: Energun | Belarus

This week we present Energun, an interesting live act from Belarus (Eastern Block). Their promos caught the attention of Droid members due to their unique take on hard groove techno and their prolific output (the Concentration EP can be heard on Raíz's latest Blankcode Podcast). The bulk of Energun's releases can be found on their own Energun Records, but this recording for D-Node is made up of mostly unreleased, unnamed track arrangements. It was only natural we share their sounds with our...

D-Node 202: Myk Derill | RE(FORM)

Myk Derill's approach fuses dub zones and experimental noise-scapes into a mix that is both hard and spaced-out; a hypnotic, repetitive field that melts from one track into another. As a producer he's proven himself on RE(FORM), Fluxus, Knotweed, Steadfast, and more labels, and this week he shares a set for the 202nd episode of D-Node. Enjoy.
