Sportmann – Opening Set live from Tohhnzimmer (May 17th)

Recorded live at Tohhnzimmer on May 17th, this opening set comes from Sportmann – resident DJ at Pan Club Hannover and co-founder of Hamburg’s Snag event series. Known for his dynamic and emotionally driven sound, he sets the tone for the night right from the first beat.

With 4x CDJ 3000s and a Pioneer V10 at the core, the journey begins at 138 BPM and gradually builds to 142 BPM. 

Driven by percussive rhythms and jungle-inspired textures, the set moves through warm, forceful grooves before unfolding into deeper, more emotional territory.

A set that doesn’t just open the night – it shapes it.

INFO:
With his first EP on Token, Phara conjures up four tracks detailing dancefloor impact with robust personality. In ‘Second Skin’, the Belgian artist is eager for resolution, keeping tension high with the bold analog sound he’s known for. Coming eye to eye with the label’s sound, Phara pays homage to Token while fiercely defending years of artistic direction - layering the label’s astral ambiance with his unstoppable movement.

‘Second Skin’ sets Phara’s intentions clear. The titletrack rolls forward like heavy machinery with what seems like shifting vocals breathing life into the stereo image. This first cut is a gold standard of peaktime production, creating a sense of purpose at the core of urgency. Claps and rides boom and whip around the track that lumbers on with chord stabs to add soul to flare. ‘The Ring’, however, takes the listener into another direction. Heavily centered on the drum sequence with a sharp slap-back delay, Phara plays with resonance, sparking psychosis amongst movement. Playful in the short term, ‘The Ring’ proves to be an ultra-hypnotic track reserved for a set’s high intensity stretches on an already surrendered dancefloor. Taking this energy and pulling it in, ‘Neon’ comes to establish a bit more intimacy at first. Here, the producer diffuses his elements into themselves and, in turn, creates a thick ambiance that drives the record forward in space and dissonance. ‘Neon’ is inquisitive and almost spiritual in its effect, playing with the line between a unified dancefloor and an introspective journey. The conclusion to the EP is ‘Blood’, a return to dryer production - at least in the beginning. Ambient, almost psychedelic synth work sucks in the listener over unwavering energy to create a closing track worthy of its name. Rolling through to the end, ‘Blood’ delivers the final blow to an insatiable record on Token by Phara.

Introducing 45'MIN – VA001

Marking the beginning of our journey, VA001 delivers a no-frills dose of dancefloor pressure: 10 forward-pushing cuts built for smoke-filled rooms and late-night systems.

This first compilation sets the tone for what we’re about — deep, groove-driven music shaped for the club, made by artists who live and breathe the craft. From lean percussive rollers to warped, high-pressure stompers, the release balances functional energy with character, detail, and depth.

Featuring a mix of close collaborators and new faces, VA001 is our statement of intent: a raw, high-intensity snapshot of what’s moving dancefloors right now.
