10/14/02 - Lotek #7 Audio Samples Available

Lotek Records has signed up Defective Audio for our seventh release. Codex is a full throttle NRG pumping monster with screaming synths and tweaked out bass stabs that make this tune perfect for those peak time sets. Scooby & Booster has a flowing filtered melody combined with an electro style vocoded vocal that takes the listener on journey as it sonicly enters your mind.

You can check out both "Codex" and "Scooby & Booster" on the Releases page.



10/07/02 - Lotek #6 gets official release

After a very long wait, Lotek #6 is finally going to press.  This record was delayed for a number of reasons, but due to the high demand by DJ's everywhere, it is finally going to press and will hit store shelves in August.

1/21/02 - Lotek #5 by the Pranksterz

Lotek Records is proud to announce Lotek #5 will be by the Pranksterz. Since their first track written together in 1999 the Pranksterz (Acid Ted & Steve Kyte) have established themselves as leaders in the HardNRG field by always staying true to their unique sound, and avoiding the cliches of most modern hard house/hardnrg. This release on Lotek (called "A Typical Number") shows amazing versatility in their production. Both sides are complete and utter madness! Between the hoover basslines, filthy acid builds, driving synth lines, breakbeats and many a wicked vocal cuts, there is not much more one could ask of a record.
