Altrove EP

“Dark and Dreamy” are the perfect words for our Christmas ep!
This time is Italian Gabriele Negro aka Richter time to strike on The-Zone Records.
Percussion, voices and rhythms with dark pads of infleunza synth-pop reverberated are the elements that make up “Altrove EP”
where an original and 3 remixes are able to create a ‘setting totally tied to fantasy worlds and distant
Nishimura emphasizes the fantastic side-ritual through the interlocking percussion and spatial sounds reverberated, Johan Aftregrow instead proposes the Dark side most stirring rhythmic groove and synth industrial, while the hypnotic mind is left to his fellow-partner Frank Vitta.

An EP that fully expresses the concept of “Trip and Groove.”
Merry Christmas

The-Zone’s back! New season full of surprises!
One objective: Quality & Groove
and the first season’s release was a perfect example.
From Stevie Wilson (already on Naked Lunch, Italo Business and many more)

A perfect “body/mind” product, a perfect “Pure Techno” ep

Massive Kicks, reverberate snares, echoed hypnotic synths, industrial loops and dark vocals are the elements of the Gymmy J‘s second release on The-Zone Records, and this time in duo with Angy Kore, established Italian-techno exponent in the world.
The remixes tasks are covered by the experienced hands of Dandy & Ugo, Monocraft and Deh-Noizer.
Wayfare EP, 29th label release, bring out the true techno spirit through his two main peculiarities:
hypnotism and rhythmic groove.
An impressive journey into different styles:
The Original mix and the Monocraft’s mix sharpen more the mental side of the release through hypnotic and deep sounds, with dark voice samples capable to create rarefied atmospheres and industrial backgrounds.
While the Dandy & Ugo and Deh Noizer remixes bring out all the dance rhythmic side of the release creating an explosive mix that can warm up the more demanding dance floors.
An excellent release, for an incoming summer!
Wear your seatbelts, let’s go!

Dark, surreal, spatial, mental, futuristic, hypnotic and much more to describe the new real double project of The-Zone Records signed by German artist Patrick Krieger.
A work characterized from a completely ambient sound belonging to parallel worlds very far away from the hearth.
Scenes full of mystery and spirituality alternate to futuristic and industrial environments.
Aliens signs seems to drive the pass of the old shamans rites.
Environments sound dark and surreal that only the technology of the Electronic music can creates.
Patrick Krieger’s style full of love for analogic instrumentation, seems to listen at the production of the first half of the 90’s of the Reload Ambient Records.
Far away from the dynamics of a market which aim to commercial dance floors but prepared for an audience that want to escape from classic and formal schemes.
An invitation to appreciate the esotericism of a world of mystery that darkness and night have always led with them!

The 27th release of The-Zone Rec see as protagonists many artists and styles that represent the European
New School of Techno.
Starting with the major exponents of the ukraine techno scene, Woo York with 2 original tracks plus a Tool version coming with the remixes of Spiros Kaloumenos, Simon Hi-Shock, Vegim, Knobs, Jull’ & Plankton, Scout In Bondage (alternative project of Mattias Fridell) and another powerfull Tool signed by Deh Noizer.
All undisputed protagonist of the world Techno market together for a unique project called ‘Gradient/Dub Mode EP.
An experiment that compare the different techincs the remixers with the unmistakable style of the ukraine duo very much appreciate by artist such as Ben Sims , Dave Clark , Peter Van Hoesen , Norman Nodge, Perc , Vince Watson and Shifted characterized from the experimentation of puting together powerfull rhythmic and hypnotic and mental environments.
The two original tracks “ Dub Mode “ and Gradient “ hard kicks, reverberate hithat hypnotic loops and spacial pads create an atmosphere totally dark similar to the environments sound of Jeff Mills.
The remixes of Spiros Kaloumenos, Jull’ & Plankton and Vegim through powerfull kicks, sharp hithat mixed with their style full of energy underline the powerfull rhytmic of the ukraine duo.
The Hypnotic side instead is left to Simon Hi -Shock , Knobs and Scout In Bondage that mix the spacial elements of the original with their style totally mental, they have manage to extrapolate the most experimental part of the Woo York. Closing this double title EP, two Tool, both of the track DubMode, one signed always by Woo York and the second, that close the record, signed by the Italian Deh Noizer.
A real 360° techno –elisir.

3 tracks for an all Techno EP with the 90’s taste.
TR 909, Industrial noises, metallic anvils and distorted pads are the elements that create the sound of George Lanham.
His English style underline the 90’s concept, the musical power of industrial machines sound and mechanical gears within a total atmosphere of darkness.
A sound of a world genetically modified. A perfect sound track for a science movie, ‘Tetsuo’ for instance.
”Choke Price” make us think at one of the most cult techno production of London entitled ”We have arrived” made by Mescalinum United and then remixed by Aphex Twin, where industrial pads and metallic anvils give the imagine of working robots.
In ”Breakaway Church” and ” This Sceptical Isle” distortion kicks, mechanical gear samples and hypnotics snares sound like car’s pistons make us think at the industrial production of The Mover and to Robert Armani’s techno.
An Ep that relieve the emotions of the big techno revolution of the 90’s.

Unmistakable Alejandro Trebor’ style. Although his young age he’s on top of the European techno Music.
Three adjectives to describe his EP on The-Zone rec: MENTAL, HYPNOTICS, DEEP.
Six tracks where technique and groove are mix perfectly. A sound that make feel the mystery darkness sorrounding of the techno Detroit World.
In ” Get Money” ” Punk” and ”After many years” deep basses, echo voices, spatial pads and compressed kicks create a worrying atmosphere thanks also to the sharp snares that remember the Minus rec’s production of R.H.
Listening to these tracks it seems to see the planet from very far away.
The hypnotic side characterizes most the tracks”Don’t you know” and ” Soul Hunter” with deep kicks, alien voices and dark synth that let us think to the minimal techno production of Ruskin and Basic Channel.
Track ‘‘13130” that give the name to the EP is a masterwork, anexpression of the night’s feelings.
Deep and dark voices, deep basses and kicks make us imagine the moves of industrial machines at work where echo hihat creates the night’sound for a truly deep song.
A celebral-techno Ep.
The best way to begin 2012.
