Italy's MiniCoolBoyz shuffled onto the mainstage of techno in April, with their explosive SCI+TEC Digital Audio debut EP ‘You’.

The duo’s first release on Dubfire’s label since the US techno DJ proclaimed them “future stars of electronic music” [in a Beatportal interview], captured the techno zeitgeist perfectly, and the sound of its label head.

It is no wonder then that the MiniCoolBoyz seek to relight the EP's huge percussive-driven groove 'Rimmer Man' once more, with a sparkling new remix (out today) from Venice newcomer Marka T.

"This remix is a great rework of one of our most popular tracks," said Angelo Manicone from MiniCoolBoyz. "Marka T managed to express the dancefloor hummer mood of our minimal techno style perfectly with this version."

His rework breathes new life into the original's rim-mad centerpiece - it’s fast, dirty, and pleasingly fuel-injected, the kind of insane fist-pumping techno rhythm that Dubfire might drop after a toe-curling build up come 4AM. A techno bulldozer, if ever there was one.

There is also a new bonus track called 'Bounce' on the same release. Unexpectedly sensible, the cut is a further refinement and counterpoint to the MiniCoolBoyz' tough, unfettered rhythms that have so far landed on the likes of Nic Fanciulli’s Saved Records and Italy’s Amazing Records.

"'Bounce' is a track dedicated to our fans," explained MiniCoolBoyz' Michele Colombo. "On the cut we used some dark vocal samples with massive snares and a powerful bassline, and we think it'll be perfect for the new parties of 2011."

The bassline on 'Bounce' is a sleazy, wheezy, pulsating monster. It pushes the track's analogue drum rolls and stripped back house beats down a straight path, before a cavernous reverb-laden breakdown lumbers onto the horizon pulling the rhythm out from under itself.

For a while the MiniCoolBoyz leave the dancefloor suspended, as if frozen in mid-air by a spell, immobilized, waiting for fireworks, as the groove is rebuilt out of individual drum hits and vocal mutterings before continuing along as though nothing had happened at all.

A purposeful anti-climax, it has a powerful hypnotizing effect, and proves that there could be more to MiniCoolBoyz than meets the bassbin.

Agile Recordings is proud to present the next Uto Karem release.

This time with have a great collaboration with one of our favourite artist Sebastien Leger.

The release is based on the main tune 'Utopolys' thats builds on a very infectious bass line, with funky rhythm elements and a fantastic break down, testing this tune in an early stage has had a massive impact on the dance floors worldwide, and shows off once again the ability of this man to treat the crowd.
