Back in stock: Techno (All)

Review: Portuguese producer Trikk returns with a five-track suite that blurs the boundaries between emotional depth and dancefloor precision. It's a new release built for impact and flow, threading through tempo shifts, genre collisions and global voices while holding fast to a focused, tactile sound. 'Rigor' kicks things off with peak-time weight and carefully sculpted drama i chest-rattling bass and stabs of unexpected piano beauty. 'Raiva (feat MEUTE)' brings brassy propulsion into the fold, fusing live energy with Trikk's slick production touch. 'Fortuna', with Kenyan vocalist Sofiya Nzau, hits a lighter, warmer stride, evoking open-air euphoria. On the flip, 'Luxo' plays with friction i industrial textures balanced with bursts of melody i before closing track 'Sagrado' delivers a radiant, sunrise moment. It's the clearest summation of the release's intent: to move, to build, to glow. Rooted in club energy but alive with personality, this one shows Trikk at his most expansive and assured.

Review: Walker And Royce and Dirtybird are perfect bedfellows - they both have a penchant for bright, colourful sounds, big-hearted beats and playful energies when it comes to club music. No Big Deal, the duo's new album, doesn't disappoint on that front. It is an album that goes big on collars and features the likes of comedian and musician Reggie Watts, Grammy-nominated and multi-platinum-selling artist James Patterson peak-time producer VNSSA, another Grammy-nominee in the shape of vocalist Barney Bones and more besides. Plenty of weird and wacky beats are run through with some great lyrics to make this as functional as it is fun.
