locked club unleash atom hell, electro-punk style.

the punks are back on private persons!

techno punk 2021 repress!!!

2019 repress on black vinyl with insert.

punks are back! after a stunning debut in 2017 these guys are returning with new material. this record was influenced by the latest events connected with governmental issues with russian club culture - raids, shutdowns of clubs and major festivals. damage was inflicted on our beloved clubs and festivals such as outline, arma17, rabitza. we admire our neighbors who fought for their houses and managed to protect them: ukrainian closer, british fabric and georgian bassiani.
this is a message about a sincere wish to save equality and independence. there’s no place for political games in our cultural life. only freedom matters.

new years deal - dresden s lockertmatik starts his engines for the first time on shtum and delivers a string of tracks that seem to come from a not so far away dystopian future. here are four tracks that are unpretentious but elaborate, effective but not overambitious. -break the chains- sets the bars in terms of dark techno bliss for both basements and bigger dancefloors. on -message from the underdog- lockertmatik shows off his knack for acidic perfection while -jaku- gets the jazz treatment. finally, -313 - 0351- is all about building tension without losing one bit of impact on the dancefloor. the artwork comes courtesy of carl-johannes schulze.

fully loaded rompers, drawing from influences both far and unexpected corners of the globe that have been proven to be tools for the floor. the russian duo made their debut last year on private persons with their forever punk ep, leaving a heavy mark on lovers of tape-hissed electro, ebm madness, and acid-tinged worship. with their next release, lomay ep, we see a continuation of that same energy, but with an even more broader approach, pushing the boundaries of what ebm, acid, and techno mean today. tram planet is excited to announce the release of the lomay ep, making it the first vinyl release of the label.

advanced and fresh takes on techno by milton bradley and lockertmatik. both opening with a droning soundscape followed by essential techno cuts. open your mind!

locked club is the new russian electronic punk music. a wild combination of the legacy of classic house music, new-wave acid and techno sounds and the immersion of post-soviet dance experimentation. born out of scruffy techno beginnings at drum-heavy basement parties, this is a serious, acid inflicted view of modern electronic music from the other side - away from the surrealism of the big room. locked club and rlgn recorded this project together in a basement for the basement.

christian nielsen is a musician you would not immediately expect to see behind the speicher / kompakt extra crest. we love to surprise your ears and have enjoyed for some time his outsider approach to any genre he chooses to tackle. in particular with “hard times” – a prime-time melodic monster that bridges the right transitions. right when you need them to. berlin via belgium techno juggernaut locked groove has been on our radar for ages thanks to releases on hotflush and afterlife. “dawn” is one of those magical tunes that loop along but evolves with every listen. you hold us to it that we think it could be the best set opener 2017 will have to offer. intricate drums balance well with lush minimalistic melodies. our speicher series rapidly heads towards 100. where it goes, only we know - so savour the flavour while it lasts.

the ghost am i
of winds that die
alike on land or sea,
in silence deep
to shroud and keep
their mournful memory.

great compilation with alex.do, locked groove, scuba & sei a

these signature lockertmatik sound sculptures defiber in their own space and time until their structure is most fragile only to collapse immediately in an uniform endeavor to push, abound in energy forward looking only. for these inexorable dark techno tracks stagnation is not an option.

hotflush unveils its second release of 2015 in the form of a collaborative single between label mainstay locked groove and ascendant italian duo mind against. with both acts coming off the back of triumphant finishes to 2014 the success of locked groove s huge enigma ep and mind against s surge into #33 position in resident advisor s 2014 dj poll - elysium / pulsar marks the first time the producers have collaborated. the end result combines locked grooves punchy, dancefloor-ready aesthestic and the emotionally resonant melodics that mind against have made their signature since breaking through with life and death in 2013

locked groove marks his return to hotflush with the grandiose, puzzlingly-titled >enigma<. its a colossal record whose bass-centric melody looms large. large enough, even, to inspire what is nowadays a rare scuba remix. a counterpoint to these theatrics comes in the way of wandering in a cage, a broken-beat creeper flaunting the belgians ear for subtlety, and two beatdown versions of the title track that fit neatly into your dj toolbox.

it was a little bit quite around the wirrwarr label in the last few years, as the boys focused on other projects like building up an bookingagency, a 2nd recordshop, new labels and for sure producing new music. now they are back with some fresh and crazy minimal techno tracks. on a1 we have mr. wigbert with his first appeareance on wirrwarr, a2 comes from labelhead locke in cooperation with mc shaver. b1 is a freaky brain damaging minimal monster by matt star. and last but not least b2 called *piano*, a old but still fresh sounding work of locke. freak out!

nach seinem gelungenen beitrag auf der letzten -if this is house i want my money back drei--compilation, folgt nun der erste 12- release des belgischen produzenten locked groove auf permanent vacation. die beiden stücke -thesseus- und -meditations in an emergency- überzeugen erneut durch locked grooves elegant reduzierten wie düsteren ansatz, house und techno auf gekonnte weise zu vereinen. zu -meditations in an emergency- gibt es noch einen remix des italienischen produzenten clockwork, der das original in eine vertrackte techno-version aus den frühen 90igern verwandelt.

following last years anthemic double-header, waves / shirts off, locked groove records is back with our eponymous helmsman tipping a conspicuous cap to his belgian heritage. rave alerts does exactly what it says on the tin, a thumping nod to the ghent glory days of yore, while dialogues favours the trance-fuelled introspection of the early hours. limited edition, vinyl only by the best belgian since hercule poirot.

dresdens lockertmatik label with their 4th releases. classy detroit influenced techno tracks. dark warehouses, decaying factory areas are almost gone in this citys landscape but the dark underground sound connected to it, is still vibrant here. lockertmatiks mission is to embrace the best techno traditions and to move it forward into the twenty-first century! limited to 250 copies, silkscreened jackets!

following on from februarys critically acclaimed heritage ep for hotflush, locked groove aka tim van de meutter returns with two jams to inaugurate his own eponymous imprint - a limited-run, vinyl-only vehicle to channel his relentless work ethic.
over the two sides of locked groove records #1, unabashed 90s piano-house nostalgia meets gritty 303 bass festooned with de meutters signature melodic style.

young belgian producer locked groove (aka tim van de meutter) cements an increasingly central role in the hotflush family fold with the release of the two part heritage ep. since his debut on the label, tim has propagated what he himself has termed 100% house and techno, combining elements of the big room, the deep and moody and straight up four-to-the-floor both into the space of a single track, and across the length of an ep. taking a marked step on from last years rooted and keep it simple eps, heritage pursues a joining of musical dots between and beyond classic house and techno, from the kerri chandler-esque house of *wear it well* through the epic landscaping of *lost* to *dream within a dream* blade runner beach party. in this collection, the young producer delivers two sets of three outstanding, genre-straddling tracks that further help to bolster hotflushs legacy as one of the most forward-thinking labels operating in 2013.

geopark 05 & 06 as limited double-pack!

belgian producer, tim van de meutter, aka locked groove, returns to hotflush for a second ep following the success of januarys pivotal rooted release. keep it simple comprises three weighty examples of why the young producers unique fusion of big-room techno and moodier, deep-house elements has been resonating so loudly of late. central to the ep is simplicity itself, how simple structures create something larger than the sum of their parts as >keep running<, with its rattling percussion, acidic bass stabs and euphoric builds, flaunts to the full. >aller simple< adds swing to a similar palette that is as stripped-back as it is heavy-duty. force is replaced by introspection on vinyl-closer, >even< – an inebriated voice reverberates over whispered organs and an understated groove.

turbo presents the latest in its stable of new techno artists with a powerful ep from belgiums locked groove, hot off a much-hyped release for scubas hotflush imprint!

hotflush presents the debut 12 inch from belgian newcomer locked groove aka tim van de meutter. the young producer delivers three hypnotizing and genre bending tracks that expertly weave the sounds of berghain, soulful house and uk garage into a single crushing package. the >rooted< ep draws you in with the title track, bouncing along to an acid baseline, then moves onto >drowning<, a moody techno track that was included on scubas dj-kicks mix compilation, filled with drum and ambient samples taken from field recordings. lastly, >change<, a production that smartly melds classic house grooves with industrial techno, demonstrates locked grooves rhythmic finesse and long-term promise as an artist.

limited to 160 stamped and handnumbered one sided 12 inch whitelabels. no repress.
