release date (vinyl / cd / digital): 21st of October

“I've intended to do an album for a long while. The tracks draw upon ideas going back to various points over the last 12 years or so - some of the hooks I wrote years ago other bits are brand new. In some ways I wanted it to reflect a personal arc and the way I tend to do things  - never rushed”

‘Frames of Reference’ is the some 12 years in the making debut album from UK based techno producer Ø [Phase].

Best known by his work on the Belgium based Token Records his style ranges from gritty minimal techno to Detroit influenced material. His debut ‘Module Overload’ was released on London’s Lost/Cosmic records in 2000 and was followed by a string of productions for London's Surface/Inceptive Records and Ben Sims Ingoma imprint.

The move to Token came in 2007, he shortly after began DJing professionally and has since performed at parties across the globe whilst becoming a regular guest at Berlin’s techno Mecca, Berghain performing alongside esteemed peers and supporters such as Marcel Dettmann, Len Faki and Ben Klock. His continued works have seen constant support throughout the techno world and have featured in CD mixes by Robert Hood, Dave Clarke, François Kevorkian and Fumiya Tanaka amongst others. Alongside his production work Ø [Phase] is also a mastering engineer and on/off artwork designer. Starting out at London’s prestigious Sony Music/Whitfield Street Studios, he has cut records for numerous underground dance acts as well as working on projects for mainstream artists.

Now after a string of acclaimed releases on Token and a selection of remixes for the likes of Robert Hood, Mark Broom and Peter Van Hoesen comes Ø [Phase]’s debut long-player ‘Frames of Reference’. Opening with the brooding and building swirl of ‘Binary Opposition (Process 3)’ Ø [Phase] sets out his template of evolving, richly textured atmospheres underpinned by shards of dark and light. ‘The Bwiti Initiate’ revolves around a bouncing techno rhythm that could most certainly traverse the house/techno divide whilst ‘Distracted’ and ‘Misaligned’ are the kind of unadulterated, pummeling, cavernous techno tracks that have made Lost such a party institution.
Then we have tracks like the soft beating ‘Just Another Dance’ providing a lighter edge, embellished with warmth and strings and the thick, densely woven tapestry of ‘Shadow Caster’ which goes from experimental to dancefloor and back again with consummate ease. The off-kilter lilt of ‘Perplexed’ drags us further into the dark before keys and a hint of a melody draw us back upwards for air whilst the fat driving bass of ‘Dirtro II’ and funkier edged menace of ‘On The Edge’ show a virtuoso producer at the top of his game. The closing introspection of ‘Self Deceit’ wallows in subtle nuances before a mid section synth and string intervention pulls us back from the brink before finally descending into the void.

India has one of the faster growing and most exiting scenes in electronic music and DJ/Producer Arjun Vagale is at the very forefront, championing the country's wealth of talent and leading the way with his own music. Today he makes his SCI+TEC debut and joins forces with one of Spain's hottest young artists Ramiro Lopez on the One Shot EP.

Lopez is a star in the making and fresh from a first release for John Digweed's Bedrock also makes his SCI+TEC debut. Combining their groove-crafting talents and knowledge of moving the dancefloor the pair have built two tech house bullets. Both the title track and Je Ne Sais Quoi on the flip are driven by fearsome pulsing basslines, snapping snares and crisp percussion. A sprinkle of vocals round things off and guarantee that this will not be the only SCI+TEC shot this duo get.

Arjun Vagale & Ramiro Lopez - One Shot EP [SCI+TEC]

Sweden&#8217;s influence on modern Techno can never be overrated. Over the past twenty years the ever growing band of dedicated artists emerging from the country have each played a huge part in the global growth and development of the sound. Stockholm&#8217;s Joel Mull is one of the key and original members of the country&#8217;s musical militia. Known for his dynamic and often marathon DJ sets and his impressive releases for the likes of Music Man, Cocoon, Kanzleramt and Drumcode, the DJ/Producer is steeped in Techno history. Today though he again proves his eyes, and ears, are looking firmly to future with his latest work and debut release for Nicole Moudaber&#8217;s MOOD imprint. 

The Three track Wind It Up EP again highlights Joel&#8217;s love and skill for crafting atmospheric and harmonic techno. The Waiting&#8217;s powerful kick drum is governed by its beautifully intergalactic breakdown, before Wind It Up&#8217;s marching groove is bathed in swirling synths. The EP is closed by the industrial roller Geodesi, with its ethereal guitar riff.

XAKK Records presents: John Keding & Bjorn Fogelberg – Stellar EP
Release Date: 8 Aug 2025
Format: Digital
Label: XAKK Records
Catalogue: XAKK111

XAKK is back with its first collaborative release of the year, courtesy of Swedish producers Bjorn Fogelberg and John Keding. Both artists have been active in the progressive house and electronic music scenes for decades, with recent solo and joint releases on labels such as Dissident, RKP, ICONYC, Freegrant, Krafted, Hexagonal, and more.

Their new EP, Stellar, delivers three versions of the title track, each offering a slightly different take on the deeper side of progressive house.

The Original Mix features a steady, driving groove, rumbling low-end, and spacious pads. Airy stabs and restrained melodic elements help create a hypnotic atmosphere throughout the track.

The Sunset Remix moves into darker territory, adding more weight with deeper pads, dissonant stabs, and menacing yet warm synth swells.

Finally, the Sunrise Remix brings more energy and melodic variation while maintaining the depth and drive of both the original and the Sunset mix.

All tracks mastered by Cid Inc.

Whebba - Fake (Cristian FIocchini Mix)

The remixes of Frankyeffe&#8217;s rendition of this classic are in, and are ready to be unleashed. After the original, Loco &amp; Jam step up with their looped-out version that boasts a spacious arrangement and epic overtones. Tom Hades adds a grinding rhythm section to keep things moving alongside tasty stabs and passes the torch to Thomas Evans, who reinvents the affair in his trademarked, inimitable style.

The new Intec release comes from Tomy DeClerque who is a Slovenian DJ at the forefront of his home country's electronic music scene, and along with his own solo music, he has collaborated on tracks with the likes of UMEK and Cristian Varela.

With a number of previous releases on Intec, Tomy DeClerque's first releases on Carl Cox label was in 2010, and has also released on other imprints such as Toolroom, Phobiq, 1605, Blu Fin and Mauro Picottos label Alchemy.

First on the EP is Accident and its monstrous kick drum which sets the tone for the rest of the track that builds with heavy claps and morphing acid pulses. Stabbing vocal phrases add some uplifting energy to this high octane slice of techno, which takes no prisoners with its dancefloor focused style.

Track two XoX takes things up a gear with its menacing lead synth and rattling hi-hats that form a part of its mechanical groove, and that moves with the force of a freight train. Dark and mischievous, there is no doubt this track is perfect for peak time club sets, and will be a vital addition to the arsenal of any Techno DJs sure fire crowd pleasers.

The waiting has finally come to an end. We're proud to present DJ Lion's long-awaited album 'Le Temps De L'Amour'.
The Balkan-born and now Berlin-based exceptional artist spoils us with twelve versatile and nifty tracks.
After a short intro DJ Lion sets the tone with the opening track 'Only High' that leads the way into the album, followed by 'Light Shooter' which has already caused quite some noise as the second teaser for the album after 'Reticulation'.
In the following DJ Lion raises the bar. Always Techno, but by using tons of different ingredients from acid ('Chunky Space') to a splash of steroids ('Jewroll') to a pinch of love ('Le Temps De L'Amour') he manages to keep the album diverse and always gripping.
With 'Epiphonema' and its kinky synth lines DJ Lion shows us a more freaky side of him before he perfectly finishes off the journey. DJ Lion demonstrates the capability of a techno album to tell a story from start to finish without ever losing its primary focus: to inspire and thrill the listeners
