Storm Queen, It Goes On

Beyond taking his time on the release front, Morgan Geist is also a master of measured tension in his production, and this restraint is palpable on It Goes On.

Storm Queen, Look Right Through

Morgan Geist’s debut as Storm Queen, Look Right Through, showcases the producer’s house angle at its best.

Hydronaut/Aquarhythms, Deep In The Feeling/Warm Seqs

Jay Ahern’s name has crept up a lot recently, often in the same sentence as his Hauntologists project with Stefan Schneider or his Cheap and Deep moniker/label born in 2009. Seasoned techno watchers, however, will recognize Ahern as the scene stalwart behind Aquarhythms (who recorded for Astralwerks), Add Noise, and a handful of other monikers dating as far back as 1992. With a new crop of listeners awaiting his next transmission, Ahern offered a personal history lesson that was remarkably germane for 2009’s sonic climate. The “Deep In the Feeling/Warm Seqs” 12,” which features mid-90’s era remixes from Morgan Geist and Carl Craig, feels more than 10 years ahead of its time.
