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!

No Bullshit, Hard Underground sounds only.
We're a big fan of what syrus the virus is doing and the sound he is realy nailing home with labels like Hydraulix and Stay Up Forever. Now he joins the ranks of Techno Connects Records!
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.
Syrus the Virus is a DJ/Producer of hard techno and acid techno. He was interested in Hard Dance music and vinyl very young and started playing the decks at 13yrs old.
He progressed through many genres starting with Hard House/NRG/DnB/Tekno playing sets using Vinyl and Cdjs many club nights.
His main love and passion is the Underground Techno and Free Party scene. Producing his own music started around 2019 when he built his own studio and started studio sessions with legend Dave the Drummer from there his music progressed and he had his first release on Stay Up Forever Records & Hydraulix in 2022.

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.
