Death In Vegas' album Death Mask is one of 2025's highlights round this way, a techno tour de force spread over four sides of vinyl, imperious machine music with a human, emotional soul. Earlier this month Richard Fearless released an EP to close the year, two tracks recorded live at EartH in Dalston, London. COUM is a 2011 Trans- Love Energies era track reworked into the 2025 DIV set, huge sounding squeaky reversed synths and a big old Linn drum battling through a tense techno storm.
On Lightning Bolt Fearless is in dubbier/ ambient territory, slow moving sounds, spacious and celestial. Both tracks can be bought digitally at Bandcamp and a two track 12" follows in January
Back in 2011 when Trans- Love Energies was being released Death In Vegas turned up at Lauren Laverne's BBC 6 radio show and played two tracks, Your Loft My Acid and Medication.

Sorry, got overexcited and pressed 'publish' before I had finished. Just planned to say that Earth is one of a number of fine venues in and near Dalston (Cafe Oto, Shacklewell Arms, The Victoria etc) all of which are a short bus ride from me. I'm a lucky man.
You're well placed for good entertainment Ernie. I'd not heard of Earth before this EP.
