Recorded during the creative harvest of 2020, cultivated in the midst of the haze where the dance seemed a distant memory. The debut 4-track EP ‘Lock Box’ available online and in stores now. @ben-fester

“After featuring on compilations from Butter Sessions and Moonshoe Records, ‘Lock Box’ offers a warm welcome into the mind of one of our favourites.

‘Parachutes’ immediately sets the senses adrift, enticing us in with multiple layers of dreamlike melodic haze, sparse broken drums and deep dubwise lows made for full body hypnosis, while the wicked bass bin rumbler ‘103 Alarm’ deals in mysterious swirling rhythms, with alien-like synth stabs and immersive drones turning up the suspense before a wash of melancholy and a whispering voice calls from beyond.

The choppy groove of ‘Juts’ makes for a deep jungle inspired house melter, the soundtrack to a surprise encounter with a friendly being from a distant planet. The final offering ups the stakes with the tech savvy ‘Play-Doh’ whipping us into an acidic frenzy full of heavy bass wobble and moments of sublime dancefloor euphoria.”

Akasha System - Midnight Tide

Philip Sherburne once described the Oregon's producer as follows: the closer you peer, the more Akasha System’s seemingly uncomplicated music turns out to be something like an interdependent system, a dynamic landscape of give and take.
This sense of interdependence is deep and alive. Still relevant today of Thompson's sound signature. 
Blooming interconnected soundscascapes that channel house, IDM, ambient and timeless dreamy synths. 

Tape Hiss - Scirocco

A soft wind blows from sea to sea, carrying with it siren songs of gentle piano and a hope for a brighter future. 
Emotional dance music from the Brooklyn producer. 

Manuel Darquart - Low Tide

Going back to what makes us happiest. 'Low Tide' is the sister track to our Italo-inspired 'High Tide' tune from our Infinite Pleasure EP. 606 Hats, 808 snares and of course the Lately Bass punching through some wavy Juno pads. Name us a better combo, we'll wait.

Cosmic Cherry - Malibu 

After making it through yet another lengthy and grey Berlin winter, DJ and producer Cosmic Cherry put together “Malibu” to have you dream of warmer, friendlier places. A summery, mellow house track with airy vocals and a punchy bass line that takes you to your favorite destinations. Using her own voice in German, she longs for those times where you can smell the salt water in the air and dance through mild summer nights. 

Nicodemo - Esmeralda 

Nicodemo gets back to his own imprint with his italo touch, balearic infused; hypnotic and effective track that jacks your body with plenty of hands-in-the-air synths, a pumping bassline and rhythmic elements rising to a harmonic crescendo.

Rambal Cochet - Dolphin's Dance - ALZ05

A1 - Dolphin's Dance
A2 - Dolphin's Dance (Volantis & Nicodemo 6AM Mix)
B1 - Twisted Reality
B2 - Virtual Nightmare

Rambal Cochet debuts on Alzaya with a Vinyl-Only EP. Celebrating the interconnected strands of head-tripping hypnotic sounds, new age electronica and early/late 90s progressive house/trance, Rambal Cochet arrives on this only vinyl EP, built to elevate the dance floors. 

Since emerging in the scene, Rambal Cochet has ably demonstrated his instinct for different approaches, whether exploring expansive sonic palettes or holding down stages where he has performed. This DJ, producer and versatile music curator, throughout his career, turned his capable hand into a truly immersive listening experience. 

Dolphin's Dance is an uplifting music journey with a flavour of the good old prog sound and a dreamy atmosphere. Volantis & Nicodemo elaborated on the title track stylishly and thoughtfully. The narrative flow in Twisted Reality and Virtual Nightmare uses contrasting ecosystems to glide through distinctive spaces, unfolding with darker vibes infused with style sounds, as in Yello's 90's album "Pocket Universe". The effect is sometimes nostalgic, calling to mind pulsating rhythms, bass lines, and hypnotic melodies. 

Rambal Cochet shows again an exceptional talent for producing high-level dance music. An exquisite 4 rhythmic and stimulating club jams to be savoured and absorbed in ALZ05.

Josh Caffé - Square Wave

Hailing from the northern part of Europe, and member of the collective Free Shelter, DJ Margerita has slowly been making a name for himself in the local Helsinki scene. Working through moods and genres based on the occasion, he can be seen spinning records at hifi wine bars, infamous clubs such as Kaiku or even below the surface joints not known to many. Even though he's comfortable in almost any setting, he enjoys the sweaty intimate clubs the most. A setting he might be seen at often, but flourishes when done so.

The mix in question was recorded on a windy November evening at home when he was the only one awake and filled with inspiration. From a sentimental beginning to a high-energy ending, via some bits and pieces. From Helsinki with Love.

Volantis feat. Hiroko - Yokai Parade EP - ALZ07

A1. Yokai Parade
A2. Yokai Parade (Eden Burns Remix)

B1. La Kappa
B2. La Kappa (Fabrizio Mammarella Italorama Version)

Release date: 14th March 

Ancient Japanese spirits meet contemporary electronic music in Yokai Parade EP,
a mystical collaboration between Italian producer Volantis and Japanese artist
Hiroko. Inspired by a psychedelic experience in Kobe where train sounds
summoned supernatural visitors, this four-track journey merges folklore with
modern dance music through a unique blend of hardware synthesis and haunting
vocals.
The title track "Yokai Parade" leads listeners into a shadowy realm where Hiroko's
Italian narration intertwines with Japanese train announcements, calling forth
ancient spirits. Eden Burns transforms this nocturnal tale into a hypnotic,
percussion-driven remix that deepens its ceremonial essence.
On "La Kappa," Hiroko embodies a playful water spirit, her accented Italian
dancing over dreamlike sequences. Fabrizio Mammarella's
Italorama Version injects classic Italo disco energy, creating a perfect bridge
between Japanese mythology and Mediterranean dance floors.
Co-produced with Niccolò Barozzi, this vinyl and digital release captures a unique
moment where East meets West, and traditional folklore dissolves into electronic
rhythms.

c3-p8_-masia

is a hypnotic dance between moonlight and rhythm – a dreamy, latin-infused techno odyssey. Pulsating with tribal percussion and sun-kissed grooves, the track drifts like a barefoot wanderer between tropical shadows and cosmic clarity. It’s both lucid and wild – a sonic paradox that invites you to surrender logic and move with instinct.

With every beat, “Lunatic” spins a tale of nocturnal freedom: sensual, untamed, yet deeply grounded in its earthy cadence. A track for late-night rituals and barefoot dances under imagined stars.

Hark!

Hark! Lunatic (432 Hz)

Hark! Lunatic

⛧ FRΞQUΞNCY DΞSCΞNT V3 ⛧
The next transmission emerges.
A new sequence of raw analog rhythms, modular pressure, and hypnotic collapse.
This is Ritual Techno built for low light, high volume, and full dissociation.

V3 dives deeper — tighter minimalism, broken acid, and distorted groove mechanics.
The third ritual arrives.

Unconscious by Human Space Machine is a great exercise in the subtle art of tension and release.  The track is very deliberate at slowly building up various sonic elements and letting the synth lines open and blossom.  Did I mention slowly? The track does stay true to its name and provides one with the feeling of slowly coming back to life from some sort of metaphoric slumber; starting muted and muffled and then gently "awaking" the senses one by one.  Did I mention slowly?

"Unconscious" by Human Space Machine is a part of the new "The Meaning of Time - Part II" compilation that is coming out on September 25th via On Board Music.
