For our star-studded Essentials we've done our best to narrow down the more...
We liked TJ Kong & Modular K's recent single 'End-game' a lot, and the duo continues in this vein on their 'Dream Cargoes' full-length released on Poker Flat: Ten tracks blend dubby house vibes with Detroit-style funkiness and the expansive, melodic and cinematic sound-scapes of Eindhoven techno. Recommended.
Picked!
Poker Flat Recordings drop this sweet new single by TJ Kong & Modular K: 'End-Game' is deep and epic Detroit-style techno, complete with great chords and an unusual 'electro-sax' part. Nice remixes as well from Planet E's Reference and UK house crew Deep Space Orchestra. Recommended.

Donnacha Costello's 'Before We Say Goodbye' was one of our favourite techno albums this year, and its first track, 'Leaving Berlin', proved particularly infectious. Perfectly representing Costello's unique sense of melody, emotion, and drama, these piano chords just wouldn't let go of us anymore.

Three cuts of stylish techno house from Germany's Roland Appel. 'Fleurs Du Mal' has a sombre haughtiness, interjected with gripping bells, 'Black Leather' strays a little deeper still maintaining a dark edge and 'Rosario' sees dark chord stabs emerging from a sturdy piano motif. Smooth moves.
