Each December we release a compilation that reflects the current year and looks ahead to the next. It’s a mix of tracks where artists complement each other and where we feature some of their strongest work. It can be seen as a proud collection of tracks that defines the Atomnation sound.
2K19 features new work from Applescal, Milio, Mordisco and Sam Goku. Tunnelvisions, boys be kko, Coloray, Sky Civilian and Polynation complete the selection with songs that got released earlier this year on their respective albums / EP’s.
On behalf of our artists and team, we wish you all the best for the new year. A couple of great projects are in the planning which we can’t wait to share with you. Thanks for your support!

Lamont Kohner once again graces our catalog with NIGHTLY, another two-track single of oil-slicked techno chug and abandoned factory-floor bass. Backed with CHROMATOSE, these two cuts once again assert that Kohner has the hands of an old master, dominating a dancefloor while remaining just elusive enough to continually reveal hidden peaks and valleys inside the wash of low end and nightlife neon. NIGHTLY recalls a bit of Rhythm & Sound / Main Street classic dub thump before getting impatient and riding some cymbal over a slo-mo house kick and clap. CHROMATOSE spaces out the space even more, with a distant woodblock that could just as easily be heard through a wet drain coming up from a standpipe, and chords doubling the claps that remind us a little of classic Kompakt schaffel and Speicher barnburners. Just a drop on the tongue, you wouldn’t dare take any more of this into your system!

It’s with great pleasure that after one year of silence Ekar records is now presenting a truly eclectic music collection. A compilation that consolidates old collaborations and open the doors to the new ones. A mix of talented artists but above all, beautiful people who do what they do out of love and not out of duty, feeling the freedom to express themselves as they see fit.With this free download compilation Ekar records also renews the goal of spreading creativity and passion without limiting the enjoyment to specific audiences, especially based on monetary reasons. Not a product, but music. Music by individuals for individuals and not for the masses, leaving to the user the freedom and the power to support the label and the artists as they like, based on what the music was worth to them.
If you like what you are listening show us some love!

it’s been nine years since the two sternenspringer made quite a splash with their last release on tonAtom. with no less than ten tracks and a running time of over an hour, they now deliver “exoplanet”, a continuation of their space odyssey through everything that has a spacecraft engine or can be found on foreign planets.
the style of “exoplanet” is consistently continued between clear, danceable beats and pleasant crisp clicks, creating wonderful room for space travel: somewhere in between giving a proper push and gazing fascinated out of the window into the vastness of space. hence, musically, this is not just a whirling head cinema. each piece retains a clarity and presence that covers a very own facet of the spectrum and is completely focused on it.
Natale entra Sbilenco in casa EPHEDRINA,
il Laboratorio stappa gli alambicchi per il 2020, ed inizia con un calcio d’inizio incorniciato da una entrata a gamba tesa nella mischia:
ANDREA GALLI, alle manopole con la sua “Subterranean Voices”, oscura al punto giusto, un turbine senza noia, seconda collaborazione di Andrea Galli ed i medici del Laboratorio EPHEDRINA!!!!!.
Fin qui tutto bene, adesso cambiamo reparto…..
Con FABER ONE e la sua “Walking Up” Il cosmo si muove a velocità Acida, vira a sinistra, vira a destra ma la traiettoria rimane unica, centrale a spazzar via tutta l’immondizia astrale.
Dopo il cosmo Acido arriva L’Acido Cosmico di GABRIELE RIZZO, con la sua “Elex05”, uno svarione svarionato che barcolla e non tracolla, sciabolade di oscuri presagi, un Dub ipnotico che ci scaraventa di nuovo da…….
MAURO DONATI e la sua acida “Hardacid crash” con i suoi trilli frizzi acidi, aciduli, corrosivi suoni che imboccano per il buco nero, hardblip su acidscreek.
Il buco nero sta per finire, in aiuto arriva di nuovo FABER ONE con la sua “Ckeck it out”, che piano piano ci porta alla fine, verso la luce, dove tutto si fa chiaro e i suoni sono lucidi, pronti per esplodere!!!!!!
Consiglio ascolto con Cuffia e dosi massicce di viaggi intorno, supporto totale con la diffusione senza limiti di espressione e libertà individuale.
