Here's the set I played for the closing of the Italo stage at Oxi, Berlin, for the Toy Tonics Italomania event of the 19th of July 2025 🪩

Invited by Bordello a Parigi, I serve you a twist in the italo style by brining it uptempo and with 90's trance vibes ⚡️

The Agharo Mix Series

Agharo is a language, book, philosophy and tarot deck created by collective member Jaco Perroud. We invite a guest to pick a card at random and create a mix inspired by its meaning.

Our 16th submission comes from a Dj, Producer, Vocalist from Mexico - @nvongold

About
Skillfully blending indie dance, house, tech house and electro with a chic, underground allure, Vongold is one of Guadalajara’s most distinctive sounds on the rise. A resident at Polifonic club and a staple behind the decks of Bar Américas, she’s earned a cult following as one of the city’s most beloved selectors.

Her sets are a study in contrasts: elegant yet rebellious, hypnotic yet playful—crafted for late nights where music, fashion, and emotion merge on the dance floor. With appearances across Mexico, Vancouver, the U.S., and Madrid, Vongold’s global presence continues to expand, bringing a uniquely stylish, magnetic energy to every crowd she touches. 

The Card
Exilar ur ata Ios - Guardian of Water 

The Fifth was the Guardian of Water, Naen Koll was Novelty, presage, new instruction, emotion, superfluity. Flow, time, passing, movement, changing, past, present is future, washing of the soul, easiness, lightness. Letting things go. Becoming one with the essence and simplicity of the flow of water. 

Reality approaches and pass as the current of a river. Cleanses the soul with divine water. Change is needed. Brings health. Protects against the nature of fire. Against impurities of the soul and body. The first of the elements, born from Time –and a shape of it–, was water, followed by fire, that stirs the senses. Naen Koll, the fifth, is the Guardian of Water. Controller of the seas, lakes, rivers, streams and rains that fall over the earth.

How did the meaning of the tarot card inspire the journey of this mix?

I drew a lot of inspiration from the meaning of water and also try to mix Naen Koll  it with an important deity in Mexican mythology "TLALOC"  which is the Mexican god of rain, water, lightning, and fertility  - so, I thought about the storms we pray to happen, the omens that sometimes dwell within them—and I wanted to weave together tracks that carried these “organic” elements. 

There’s also a trippier side to it, a sonic exploration of that altered state you can reach when you truly observe and experience extraordinary ritual moments in water.  It’s a kind of meditation, almost a hallucination, and I wanted to capture that feeling and share it, hoping in some way it connects with listeners ...

Agharo 16 - Vongold (Exilar ur ata Ios - Guardian of Water)

Buckle up for a ride through neon-lit streets with 'Neon Drift'. Stahler delivers a powerful slice of retrofuturistic magic, driven by a pulsating bassline that keeps your heartbeat in sync with the groove. The shimmering, retro-inspired keyboards weave hypnotic melodies, painting a cinematic atmosphere that feels straight out of an 80s night drive.

The release also features a remix by Italo Brutalo, who stays true to his signature style, infusing the track with the warm romanticism of his beloved analog gear. His version brings out the nostalgic heart of a classic synth-driven sound, turning Neon Drift into a tender yet powerful homage to vintage synth culture.

INCOMING : Jennifer Touch - Ceiling #FabrikaRecords

Release date : 01/09/2025
BUY : https://jennifertouch.bandcamp.com/album/aging-at-airports-2

The idea for the record title came before the music even existed as Touch was spending an increasing amount of time in airports while touring. In her own words: ""It felt like I waste a large part of my life waiting for the next show to come, to entertain and perform my music and build timeless moments with others. This waiting, the slowly ticking time at the gate, was in complete contrast to what I want to do as an artist: to be in flux, to create things that will last forever. The airport, as a busy hub, was like a symbol of this ambivalence. And a reminder: every second, whether waiting or on the move, I have to accept that I am fading, that my creative power, my face, and my body are fading. As a (performing) artist, everything feels like a strange contrast. While you want to stay true to yourself and speak authentically from the soul, you are also expected to appear forever young, and powerful. Artists are often wanted to distract people, but creating this art forces me to confront my own transience. I feel the struggle to fit into this powerful artificial framework that the world has set and the desire to break free from it.

‘Aging at Airports’ plays with the ambiguity and ambivalence of being true to ourselves. Those true andhonest emotions are the theme of the record. The vocals and lyrics channel those emotions within theartificial surroundings of synths, digital sounds, and clean mixing. This theme is quite dramatic but Touch maintains a sense of playfulness. The record doesn’t attempt to be too serious and super dark but still comes from that deep place of Touch’s soul that has to handle this stretch.
From the opening track the album is a synth showcase that fully embraces Jennifer’s range as a vocalist and composer. ‘Aging at Airports’ takes listeners through a drifting emotional journey through EBM EBMinspired tracks (Behavior and Ceiling), drone pop (Walls of Patience and Anthem) and minimal beats (Dripping and Wars & Blood Red Roses) to close out with a track made for the darkest dance floors (Rumble (Defiance)).

As we have always said at Sprechen, one of the best things about running a label is being able to work with people that have played a significant role in soundtracking your journey through music. It’s with this latest release that we can tick that box again and welcome Jon Pleased Wimmin to the label for a stomping collaboration with Bristol based self-confessed ‘House Music Fanatic’, Dave K.

Higher is the result of these 2 musical minds getting together in the studio and is a no holds barred, peak time pumper that thunders out of the traps and cranks the endorphin machine up to 11. With nods to Fantazia rave tapes of your youth and dashes of secret hidden parties in Ibiza, this has all that and more.

Both chaps deliver their own remixes with Dave K dropping a darker Italo take that is full of ample pumping elements with a suitable roof raising piano breakdown, a biggie!
Jon Pleased Wimmin takes things more subterranean and cranks the tempo to full force tops off territory on his ‘Poppers’ mix which does indeed hit you like a blast of amyl nitrate!

A hefty package for hefty dance floors & late night shenanigans…hold tight!

Dave K & Jon Pleased Wimmin - Higher (JPW Poppers Mix) [Sprechen]


With his track “Time Is Not Real,” Dutch producer Doctr resurrects the break fever of the 1980s. Driven by syncopated beats and an irresistible slapped bassline, the track clearly draws inspiration from “Street Dance,” while injecting a modern dynamic and a vocal by Belle Doron. 

Percussive breaks, subtle vocoders, and an uptempo groove give the piece an energy crafted for the dancefloor. A retro-futuristic gem that belongs on every nu-funk and electro-boogie playlist.
With "Echoes," Doctr delivers a delicate Italo disco ballad. The catchy, melodic, and luminous leads rise like memories that refuse to fade away. In the background, airy pads weave a sensitive, almost cinematic atmosphere. The refined and nuanced production plays on contrasts between danceable pulse and introspection. A track that touches both the heart and the body, standing at the crossroads of the club and pure emotion.

To close the release, “The Calling” is an irresistible groove set to ignite dancefloors. At the heart of the track, a powerful and hypnotic 30-second percussive break grabs attention before giving way to a perfectly crafted Italo disco melody. This contrast between raw rhythmic energy and melodic finesse makes the track an essential club anthem, embodying the perfect fusion of power and sonic elegance.

Amount - Story [Darkroom Dubs]

Sometimes imperfection is perfection. Distressed chrysalis exist with this concept. They have earthy textures, holes, cracks and blurry shades. The result is a chrysalis that looks older than it actually is, and sometimes just worn out. No two unhappy chrysalis are ever the same. Each of them is uniquely beautiful.
Decay is a necessary and decisive process for the health of the human psyche.
Let what you once feared run through you. Take a new form; benefit from your primitive instinct. Fuck off what you think is unnecessary for your rebirth.
"Unnecessary" is the title of the second release on A Flooded Need. Previously tangled in the most slippery meanders of electronic music with strong punk and wave reminiscences, 1/2 of Hyperlacrimae alongside 11xxx27, Nocturnerror approaches this work in a totally different way. The six tracks of the EP, in fact, represent a melting pot of hybrid influences between audacious bass music, cinematic and cacophonic IDM, totally deconstructed techno - stripped of its dance component - and dirty rave jungle.

4. OVER BEFORE YOU NOTICED

Traffic means action,
absence is satisfaction.
All shine on. A star in orbit.
Are we still on time? 
Time is our failure.

We've been up all night,
pleasure is relative
(but it's all we've got).

It might not be enough,


just not enough.

Irrational Dramas is androgynous thinking, mutant paranoia, instinct dominated by thought. It is bloody past, wild grace, certain consequences of an action never committed. A compilation of 11 artists, each of whom tried to explore the psychological and therapeutic role of the tragedy. The reference music scene is that of electronics with the most futuristic sound, rather than the most disturbing ambient, or the most ruthless and cathartic bass music. In fact, catharsis is the central theme on which this V.A. is focused, understood both from a physical point of view - and fifths of catharsis full of dynamism, body, movement - and from an emotional point of view (like the liberating detachment from passions through strong events, taking up the Aristotelian concept).
From purification we can regenerate ourselves, our perennial dissatisfaction is our engine of action.
