Addictive EP
Here is the second Acid release for The Zone Records.
The first coming from Holland concentrated on the power of the TB303, the second coming from France and signed by a poliartist such as Franck De Villeneuve.
An entire EP where everything blends in a simple and functional way. TB303, kicks, basses, vocals and melodies build a winning sound on dancefloors as well as in your mind.
“Additive” the track that names the EP melts a classical Acid-house Chicago style with a more German’s Kraftwerk type sound.
“Wake up my mind” is based on a hypnotic bass groove with some echoed basslines as well, it reminds the ears of Franky Knuckles’s classic rmxs.
With “Ballade Champetre” you enter the dancefloor and are immediately captured by the warm bass and groove that seize your soul.
Also very interesting work on “My back without stage” a blend between Dub, Acid, Techno and Pop. TB303, piano, vocals and dark rhythms inside this timeless production.
After a long friendship with “The-Zone” crew here is a shows of 4 truly monstrous tracks.
Perfect style of dark creepy techno. Slow, heavy and hypnotic!
Minimal blends with Techno in all 4 tracks of this EP.
Industrial pads melt with hypontic ones, deep basses with powerful rhythmics that all together form something he himself called “Ride Groove” emphasising this with the name of the ep itself “Geometric” also highlighting the historical connection between music and mathematics.
Listening to “Triangular” and “Cubic” on side A you are pulled into a spatial and hypnotic sensation while the powerful rhythms of “Circular” and “Prismic” of side B are powerful dancefloor killers.
Another big techno release for The Zone Records!
The tenth release of the label “The-Zone Records”, it could not be a celebration as it should During the 5 years of the Amazone Records, “The-Zone” called the label’s owner, one of the most active exponents of techno “last generation”.
Straight from France, Mr. Marco Asoleda closes 2010 with a big bomb!
The Ep is structured in two original tracks plus 2 Remix. The Original tracks “Darky” and “Tool” have the unmistakable stamp of Marco Asoleda’s music, usually heard in the production of Amazone Records.
A style where deep bass and hypnotic synth create an atmosphere of darkness and underground, where the subwoofers are the masters. Perfect tracks to start a big party.
While the two remixes outsource what is the basis Asoleda Music.
Techno version of “Darky” where Logotech enhances the hypnotic element, the depth of the original drum, transforming it into a war machine for the subwoofers.
Peja has a version of “Tool” more tech-house, very elegant, with a mix of drums, bass and synth,perfect for the dancefloor… keeping the hypnotism.
New school techno Made in Italy, KNOBS aka Diego Simonetti from Rome.

His music is cosmopolitan as his life.
Techno is his expression of a sound that comes to America from Asia via Europe. Spirituality asian , american groove and the power of european rhythm… these are the characteristics of the tracks “Beauty”, “Big Fat Ass” and “Supra”.
While the track “Oldschool” is a real gem for this Ep, where past and present blend in perfectly. A track that combines Robert Hood’s techno style to Chris Liebing’s style in a special “TechnoKnobs” style. Listen carefully!
A Techno artist who has indicated his intention to continue testing instrument creating the new school techno!!
First production only “ACEEEEEEED” for The Zone Records.
Night Orchestra, a young dutch artist, is the protagonist of “The Challenge acid”.
After the second release in which the protagonist was the “old school electro” signed by Aux 88 and Debonaire, this release is still the ghetto music that breaks through the wall separating the market from analog to digital… without compromise.
One release focuses on the power of TB 303, the magic box that can transform a bass line in a sound without borders.
A european acid production that reminds us the old settings of Hardfloor and 90s Acid Party atmosphere.
Vocals hypnotism and altered consciousness are the themes on the tracks “Abandoned Factory” and “MDMA”.
While on the B-side “Few Seconds”… Night Orchestra hits the full heart of the dancefloor, mixing perfectly electric bass and drum machines.
Ends the EP with the track “State Of Mind” where the bass, drums and synths… creates an effect lysergic acid, without side effects.

Hironori Takahashi comes straight from Japan with its sound “Dark and Deep”… these are two key words with which the Japanese signed the fifth release of The Zone Records.
