#2 Feat. Staff Picks in Hard Techno

Sci-fi techno pioneer Scalameriya returns to Perc Trax for his first release on the label in over three years. Since then hes been busy growing his Void+1 empire whilst building up his hardware only live set which will be rolling out around Europe soon.Aurifex Rex is Scalameriya at his most intense and forward thinking, twisting sound into new forms and combining these timbres with the heavily processed vocals that made his Perc Trax hits such as Let My Flesh By Your Sacrament so unforgettable.Opener Aurifex Rex is the vocal centrepiece of the EP, glitching and stuttering it constantly builds from start to finish unlike anything you will hear outside of Scalameriyas own music. Next up Psybernetix is a classic Scalameriya percussive roller, the kind that perfectly fits into a DJs set and refuses to leave for months to come.The second half of the EP is comprised of two versions of It Stared Back. Scalameriyas original mix is built on a huge synth riff that also contains just a hint of orchestral drama. Have real work instruments finally broken into Scalameriyas alien sound universe? Youll have to ask him yourself. Closing things off Perc Trax boss man Perc remixes It Stared Back, serving up a club ready mix as rolling percussion is interrupted by the sudden drops that Percs best productions are known for.

Perc returns to Perc Trax for his first full EP since the release of his Resident Advisor recommended album The Cut Off in March 2024. Across the three tracks of Soft Launch Perc sets out his current sound, a groove led take on classic techno with the depth of production and unexpected twists that Percs tracks are famous for.Title track Soft Launch is based around the interplay between the three main elements of the track, the driving kick & bass, cut up percussion loops and the ever building string chords, creating something unique that has been a key track in Percs sets since it was completed.Tonight sits somewhere between pulsing electro and gritty lo-fi techno, constantly pushing forward as a female vocal breaks through the wall of percussion demanding to hear something fresh.Finally Gravity Drop pushes the sound design further, mixing a crisp industrial kick drum groove with cut up atmospheric melodic and vocal elements creating a psychedelic dreamlike atmosphere to close the EP.

Australias You Know Seth arrives on Perc Trax with the driving grooves of Permanent, the latest in the labels one track series. First coming to Percs attention in early 2025 with CCamp, one of Percs most played tracks this year, it only seemed fair to invite You Know Seth onto Perc Trax.Permanent is everything you would want from a modern club techno track, driving drums, deep breakdowns and just a touch of 00s tribal techno drama.
