The scene changed. Life got heavy. The momentum paused — but the community never left.
Techno Connects is returning with a renewed purpose:
to rebuild the sense of family that techno was always meant to have.

We’re relaunching not just a label, but a community hub.
A place where artists support each other.
A place where ravers feel at home.
A place where the culture matters again.

The break made us stronger.
The comeback brings us closer.

Welcome to the next chapter — a chapter shaped by you, the people who keep this culture alive.

Techno Connects is back.
Let’s build the future together.

In to our 6th release and we have the pleasure to announce another artists Debut!
Introducing CRU-909!

Her First experience with techno was ‘Boiler Room Edinburgh’ in 2015. There she was introduced to Speedy j, Planetary Assault Systems, Rolando and the one and only Gary beck who inspired Cru-909 into this EP!
(we have been told is fan of this EP btw)

This maybe Cru-909’s debut EP but she is no stranger to the music scene in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Being a patron of the arches and Subclub growing up she has stuck with it working for blue audio, king tuts and Couloursfest, in her own words she “just fucking loves sound!!!”
Now onto the actual music. 
We were blown away to hear these first two tracks from this rising star. Clean driving groovy and soulful. I know we haven’t had much in the way of peak time sounds until now so what a way to bring them to the label! 
Title track initiate is deep dark driving roller that will get anyone dancing! Wicked use of vocal to create groove and atmosphere throughout. 
This is backed up with rework from label boss Hamaton3 only taking the vocal samples and inspiration of CRU-909’s energy he has delivered a peak time/minimal roller focusing on percussion and of course his signature kick. 
Finally, we have, a bhean choir (Gaelic for beautiful women). this is one for the Glasgow underground scene! She has picked up the sounds of la cheetah on a Wednesday night with some great sampling to give a great nostalgic tough to this hard roller. 
CRU-909 welcome to the techno world!

 

JAW GRINDER

Syrus the Virus wins top brass for his demo submission! He knows what we mean ?
Two brutal tracks (in keeping with our speed limits) taking no prisoners and delivering clean clear and heavy underground sounds just how we like to hear it!
This release is backed up with a superb hard groove vibe remix from our close friend Coutts! You can expect to be seeing more from him in the future.

Next up on TCR we have one of our label residents. Cinquedea!
She has been working hard bringing all elements of her experience as a Techno performer and participant together. This has resulted in producing relentless hard tracks with a fun and playful edge. Her first release on the very respectable ‘Refined Format’ is a case of start as you mean to go on.
This was quickly followed up with some stomping remixes for Keep on techno records and now this belter of an original! She has truly captured her 90s influence with a hold on for dear life drop! No nonsense techno just the way we like it!

This release is backed up with a remix from label boss Hamaton3. A twisted and alien take on the original using sampling to really twist Cinquedea's sound.

It is a huge honour, as a new label, to be able to bring to the world the birth of a new project!
When Juan the beautiful mind behind fractal disorder approached us with his Dissociative Mind project we jumped at the chance.
This is a fine example of the brilliant sound we aspire to bring the world!!
trappy crisp tops, buzzing sharp synths that slap and surprise. a feeling of electric shock from the sound designs clarity and let's not forget, all held together by a mind melting rolling low end.
Take a bow Dissociative Mind and welcome to the family!
