For Fuse’s fifth release, Brussels’ Altinbas returns for a whirlwind of meditative and harmonious techno. Solidifying his identity of focused yet vibrant club music, the Fuse resident and label co-curator offers his second contribution ‘Sustain’ as a dancefloor-enveloping take on modern techno. Known for rich chords, whipping pads, and dry percussion, Altinbas proves once again that his touch as a producer revolves around balance and calculated effect.

‘Trail of’ kick starts the EP with flourishing synthwork and a taste of dub as has become the Belgian artist’s signature. Dotting toms as rhythmic accents and a low to the ground shaker make for a swaying introduction with an infectious groove. Breaking things up in the second track, ‘Life Force’ presents Detroit style chord stabs and playful rhythmic work. With a mental synth at the foundation, the track presents 909 drums to reinvigorate atmospheric synths that make ‘Life Force’ a subtle hybrid of classic club genres. With a wink at Fuse’s heritage and a peak into its future, Altinbas’ focus on enduring music can be felt throughout ‘Sustain’ and truly understood in the Brussels club. As a fitting follow up, ‘Purpose’ opens the B-side with illuminating chords and rounded sound design and a pulsating low-end. With almost a lighthearted tone, the record fits across genres and rooms, claiming movement instead of mood as its sole medium. The title track ‘Sustain’ proves just that - a melodic sequence and progressive arrangement make for an intensely euphoric closing. Evolving melodies, opening filters, and big but calculated buildups sum up Altinbas’s work for Fuse’s fifth release on the new label. The record brims with warmth and yet it finds its way on darker dance floors with ease, providing a refined style of music that belongs only to him across the international scene.

Continuing the year strong, we’re lining up the second release of Dutch newcomer Jancen. Leaving us wanting more after his impressive label debut on FigureX45, the second part of his Inner Labyrinth EP draws from a variety of influences to display his refined image of modern techno.

First off, Dub Dissonance sets the tone right with an immersive and heads-down track, determined synths stabbing away those layers of the mind. F-Track in contrast stands out with its deep swaying chords and beautiful dubby atmosphere, making for one stellar groove. On the flipside things get more intense as Maze Chase comes swirling all in colourful peak time arps. Straightforward and unrelenting, Sassafras closes the labyrinth with an unrelenting synth motiv and captivating thump, turning the dial up to 10. Buyers of the digital package will also find bonus track Augusto Fiero, a gradually building affair that plays perfectly with the tension of sustain and release.

Portuguese techno mainstay Dextro drops cultured EP ‘Covil Dos Abutres’ for his label debut on Mutual Rytm.

Dextro has been immersed in electronic music and DJing since the early 90s. In the decades since, he has become synonymous with a sound deeply rooted in simplicity and authenticity. Fuelled by a passion for his craft, his production process is guided by intuition and spans a diverse range of styles, from tunnelling grooves to more potent techno with deep and hypnotic layers. He has held several key residencies and released on top labels like CLR and Missile Records, and he adds to those with a first outing on SHDW’s Mutual Rytm with ‘Covil Dos Abutres’.

The five-track 12” and eight-track digital EP has a sleek, stripped-back style, with wide-spanning corners of the techno realm explored. ‘Covil Dos Abutres’ is a deep space transmission with journeying, frictionless beats and deft sci-fi motifs that recall classic touches synonymous with the genre’s pioneers. ‘Correct Incorrect’ keeps the pressure on with more rubbery, dubbed-out groves beautifully decorated with delicate melodies. ‘Vida E Morte’ is another sublime and hypotonic minimal techno sound with funk in the kicks and a freaky late-night spirit. ‘Element One’ again combines perfectly reduced drum groves with atmospheric pads and curious samples that keep you intrigued, and 'Beautiful Day' closes out with sonar-like synth pulses over the most skeletal but captivating rhythms.

Digital cuts 'Time Line’, ‘Savana Urbana’, and ‘Diferenças’ further explore the intersection of minimalism with cosmic synth designs that take you off into distant astral worlds.

Dextro ‘Covil Dos Abutres’ lands on Mutual Rytm on 4th April 2025.

Slam - Dark Channel [SOMADA128]

Limited Dark Channel vinyls available on the Soma Shop - purchase direct from the Soma Shop and we will give you the full digital download version of the album for free

As electronic music pioneers and co-founders of Soma Records, Slam have continually shaped the landscape of underground techno. With their forthcoming album, Dark Channel, they present a raw, club-focused record that stands as both a reflection of our turbulent times and a celebration of the dance floor’s enduring power.

In 2025, the world feels fractured, dominated by division and extremism. Amidst this chaos, the dance floor remains a rare sanctuary—one of unity, self-expression, and collective escape. Dark Channel is an unapologetic tribute to this sacred space, where rhythm dissolves barriers and music serves as a universal language. Through relentless energy, deep textures, and hypnotic grooves, the album embodies the essence of club culture: a place where we reconnect with ourselves and each other.

Slam make no mistake when it comes to the sonic tone of the album as it opens with the tribalistic 'Use It, Lose It' before the discordant sounds of title track 'Dark Channel' hints at the relentless nature of things to come. The intensity continues with 'Parametric Factor' & 'Glide' - both pushing a pulsating, synth driven trip; the later leading on a more traditional Slam percussive workout. The dance floor warping 'Morganatic' pursues dark territory while 'Infinit Spaces' adds trippy FX to an already animated synth hook. The beautifully crafted 'Kuture Version' delves into a more immersive sound as more direct, chord driven elements take the lead. The pace quickens yet again with 'Ghost Dancer' highlighting sub tones whilst still crafting ominous intonations with its modulating FX. Approaching the conclusion, the ferocious 'Beat On The Drum' delivers a lesson in rhythm and energy before the contorted 'Irregular Object' completes proceedings in a suitably hypnotic fashion.

From the outset, 'Magallanes' asserts itself with rolling drum patterns and pulsating synths, locking listeners into its hypnotic rhythm. Hypnotic synth pulses weave through the track, building tension gradually until it breaks into a dense, rhythmic crescendo.

Next up, 'Turn the Tables' lives up to its name, amplifying the energy with snapping hi-hats, deep bass momentum, and restrained synth modulations. A functional yet immersive trip through layered percussive textures.

The B-side offers a deeper, more atmospheric twist.
'Cycle Break' channels a groove-heavy, tribal-infused flow, using intricate rhythmic interplay and distant, metallic textures to create a track that breathes and expands across the mix.

Rounding out the release, 'Set A Dot' leans into pure forward motion, with skittering percussion, sharp synths, and a rolling low-end pulse, making it a go-to tool for seamless DJ layering and extended club sets.

With 'Set A Dot', Chontane refines his signature style, delivering tracks that are meticulously detailed and irresistibly powerful.
A journey through rhythm, texture, and raw energy.

Ride This D EP

Ride This D

Premiere: Gene Richards Jr — Ride This D [FRNZYREC009]

"Ganbaru" (頑張る) is a Japanese word that encapsulates the concept of steadfast determination and perseverance in the face of challenges. It implies not just doing one's best, but pushing beyond that, enduring hardship, and seeing a task through to completion. It's often translated as "to try hard," "to hang in there," or "to stick with it".

Finally releasing a track that's been getting a lot of love every time I've played it! I'm calling this one loopy, tribal, mental hypnotic techno – it subtly bridges the gap between the deep and hard sides of techno today.

You can support my sound by checking it out on Bandcamp, or simply give it a listen right here.

We welcome back Michelle Sparks for another EP on Tronic. This time Michelle delivered two hypnotic, minimal groovers that are made for dark warehouse raves! We recruited Chicago Loop for remix duties. His version of Mindweave adds an immersive synth sequence and a groove that reminds us of the late 90s. Great Package!
