Two of Techno’s undisputed titans, [B]UMEK & Beltek[/B] return to [B]Toolroom Records[/B] with undoubtedly one of the most eagerly anticipated artist albums of 2011, ‘[B]Out Of Play[/B]’.

This dynamic duo has quite literally devastated dancefloors this year with their pounding productions cleaning up the download charts on countless occasions. [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=52"]Umek[/url] has cemented his status as a Toolroom favourite, with his acclaimed ‘Toolroom Knights’ compilation and a forward thinking DJ set at TK5, two huge highlights in this hero’s illustrious career. Meanwhile, Beltek has continued his rise to stardom with twisting, floor charging productions weaving their way through hurricane paced sets that have earned him number 1 selling releases and accolades from DJ’s, peers and fans alike. With this prestigious production partnership locking themselves away in the studio, the creation of 10 essential dancefloor masterpieces was the obvious outcome.

The album showcases [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=52"]Umek[/url] & Beltek’s versatility, taking you through all dance music dimensions, with the pure tech house groover ‘Rasta Voice’ setting the scene for the madness that ensues. Driving, heads down action comes from title track ‘Out Of Play’ and the techno juggernaut ‘Charley Chopper’. The pace refuses to relent with progressive melodies courtesy of ‘Firewalk’ and ‘Pitchcraft’, whilst ‘Keep The Frequency’ is a nod towards their experimental side with a dubstep inspired breakdown, combining big beats and even bigger basslines. ‘Out Of Play’ is a superb debut album from two of this years hottest DJs & producers; [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=52"]Umek[/url] & Beltek, and comes complete with a full length DJ mix from the duo.

^^

Full support on that! I can´t stand the guy either.

And would he please stop calling himself techno? If what he plays is techno, then I play pakistani banjo music, ffs.

In fact, this summer he was asked to play an "old school techno" set at a party here in Portugal, first he confirmed the gig, but only after confirming, did he realise through his manager that he had to play techno at that party. He came up wih a lame excuse about losing his luggage, but the promoter told me that in fact, he got scared because he was just carrying his crappy (my word here) collection of Beatport Tech-House and Electro-House.

Absolute farce.

I won´t dispute that, I remember some amazing sets from him back in the day, but sadly those days are long gone. IMO, of course.
