The seventh volume of Drumcode’s annual A-Sides compilation hits with no less than 10 debuts for the label, with Charlotte de Witte, ANNA, B.Traits and Scuba’s SCB project, among the collection of topline artists to release their maiden productions on the imprint. Over two decades into its lifespan, Drumcode keeps evolving and excelling, pushing techno forward while remaining wholly respectful of its roots. This reputation for progression was further fueled this summer with its inaugural festival at the NDSM Docklands in Amsterdam, featuring a long list of heavyweights including Nicole Moudaber, Joseph Capriati, Amelie Lens and Ida Engberg, among others. As ever, the A-Sides compilation provides a timely opportunity to showcase the full range of its sonic repertoire, with Adam Beyer scrupulously selecting unreleased tracks that have taken prime position in his sets over recent months. Who better to step up to the stage to open part 3 then Bart Skils, who offers a work of consummate skill in the form of ‘West Of The Moon.’ Next up on the A side Secret Cinema team up Reinier Zonneveld to present 'Pain Thing' an electric techno workout featuring their trademark analogue bass & synth lines. The B side see's Drumcode regulars Pig&Dan supply their powerful composition 'Pushing On' & in true Pig&Dan fashion it takes no prisoners from the get go. Last but not least & rounding off part 3 Berlin-based producer & emerging talent Juliet Fox is brought into the fold with the infectiously engaging 'Wanted Me'.
