Release: 28th February 2025

EXHALE Records proudly welcomes AIROD for his first full EP on the label, delivering an electrifying three-track release that captures the essence of his raw, high-voltage sound. With the Amnesia EP, AIROD cements his status as a relentless force in the techno universe, blending industrial grit, pounding beats and immersive storytelling.

The title track 'Amnesia' immediately sets the tone with an unrelenting groove and hypnotic ethereal layers that build tension to near-breaking point. Pulsating with seismic bass and razor-sharp percussion, it's a peak-time weapon engineered to ignite the dancefloor with its trancy melody that leaves no one standing still. The single 'No Lover' gets straight to the point, starting with haunting female vocals and an eerie melody combined with a driving, full-throttle rhythm. Its menacing atmosphere, paired with pounding kicks and relentless progression, evokes the energy of a dark, intense warehouse at full tilt — "I'm afraid he's not enough", the voice keeps repeating. Closing the release with its epic choirs, 'Revival' offers a cathartic finale with its cinematic builds and euphoric drops. Merging catchy melodic elements with AIROD’s signature high-energy aesthetic, the track drives forward with a commanding urgency, delivering the perfect balance of aggression and emotion.

From the underground depths of Paris to the global techno stage, AIROD has become a mainstay at EXHALE events, and with the 'Amnesia EP' he takes his partnership with Amelie Lens' label to its next explosive chapter. This raw, epic, high-energy EP is a big statement in modern Techno, made for those who live for the intensity of the night.

AIROD - Revival

Dieser etwas härterer Groove Track, ist ein Werk welches euch das Gefühl von Berlin Neukölln vermitteln soll. 
Als stilistisches Mittel wurde zur Verdeutlichung der Laage in diesem Stadtteil Cj aus GTA San Andreas gesampelt. 
Durch die Herkunft des Künstlers und dem Ursprung seiner Musik, enthält der Beat ebenfalls Klänge sowie Sampels, die an Industrial Techno oder Dark Groove erinnern. 
Falls den Hörer*innen diese Melancholische Reise durch Klang und Zeit zusagt, würde der Künstler sich über Rezensionen-Kommentare-Reposts und likes Freuen:)

One of the many attributes which add to the ongoing success of ARTCORE Records is the exceptional talents of the label’s roster. Since Indira Paganotto launched her boundary pushing imprint in 2022, a host of DJs/producers from different backgrounds have lined up aside each other at ARTCORE shows around the globe whilst also representing via myriad singles, EPs and VA releases. Whilst they may hail from a contrast of cultures, all of those that feature share the same intense drive and burning passion as Paganotto herself.
 
Indira is cuing up the second ARTCORE DUO release of 2025. Remaining true to the fresh format of featuring two separate artists on one EP, Indira has re-enlisted the services of two label favourites for its next dual release. Welcoming back Belgium’s Marhu, whose wonderfully eclectic debut ‘Bhajan’ EP landed last September, as well as Italy’s Valentinø, who returns following his ‘Space Travel’ contribution on ARTCORE OffSonar VA Vol.2.
 
Valentinø’s ‘Time To Change The Moment’, opens the release with a cinematic vocal monologue, it rumbles with an ominous urgency made all the more tense by its array of moody melodics, volatile drums rolls and piercing synth components which merge to form a surging beat that gallops relentlessly to until its close.
 
‘Vida Loka’ from Belgian producer Marhu, delivers blistering energy from the outset, its momentum swinging back and forth jolting between a fantastically peculiar lead melody and the more assertive percussive components which underpin it. Outlandish in its execution, the surreal mix of overtones on offer are then bound together by the tracks duelling vocals.
 
Valentinø’s ‘Hiss’ is next to emerge and does so somewhat grandiosely. Rising amidst a gaseous haze of hissing effects, the core of the rhythm combines descending and ascending synth notes that chime aside an eccentric whistling chorus, revving bassline and a sultry vocal arrangement.
 
‘Feeling Golden’ tears through a sequence of sound textures before arriving at the chorus - a delightful duet of contrasting vocal tones. Following this climactic rush of hardstyle influences. Marhu employs a dynamic series of fleeting rave stabs, surging pad effects, and a distortion of chiming harmonics before closing out a killer new release.

The undisputed queen of Psy-Trance, Indira Paganotto unveils her first music of 2025, shortly after she announced ARTCORE’S substantial world tour, kicking off with 6 dates, 3 of those mark the labels debut hosting their own stage at Tomorrowland, Mysteryland and Dreambeach, with each line up carefully curated by Indira.
 
ARTCORE has become a worldwide name when it comes to Psy-Trance, giving a home for artists both established and new, for the first time creating a label and sound that really deserves its own genre – Psy-Techno. A sound that Indira has remained loyal to, pushing to create awareness, and inviting fans to step into a world designed by her creative imagination.
 
Just announced as one of the first ever females to have her own residency at Hi Ibiza, as well as playing Coachella for the first time this April, there is a lot more to be unveiled this year, but first is the promise of brand-new music this March, with a killer 2 track release showcasing some tougher, darker sounds of her recent studio sessions.
 
The distinctly atmospheric, ‘Kalima’ is a thrilling symphony of dark-psy and techno melodies. Exhilarating from start to finish, the rhythm is driven by emotive synth shots, dynamic percussive fills, and a transcendent vocal component that fortifies an already powerful composition by ARTCORE’s inspiring founder. ‘Dune’ follows and features dramatic trance stabs atop rumbling bass notes alongside a bewitching vocal arrangement. Centred around a captivating, chanting chorus its melody unfurls gradually to incorporate a fierce distortion of harmonics. Two staples in her recent sets.

Release: 28th March 2025

Serving as a launchpad for exceptional emerging talent, EXHALE brings together rising artists with heavyweight international names, each bringing their uniqueness whilst collectively sharing a vision of boundary-pushing, future-facing electronic music. Now on its sixth iteration EXHALE’s landmark compilation series is a beautifully executed case in point for everything the imprint stands for.

Featuring fifteen tracks, VA006 is a blistering tour de force of razor-sharp talent and cutting-edge techno. Argentine producer SAILØ’s ‘Nobody’ kicks us oﬀ in fine style with icy vox over typically pummeling rhythms, followed by French artist and Reborn Events co-founder Uphoria who takes us to rave euphoria with the aptly titled ‘Rave Dance Drink’. Fresh talent is delivered in spades from 19 year old Dutch hard techno producer STORM, who serves up thunderous bass, haunting
synths and electrifying drops on ‘Hypnotise’, followed by Polish-born DJ and producer Noemi Black, whose track ‘Lost In Sound’ combines transcendent rave energy with obliterating bass. One of the most popular newcomers in recent years, and for good reason, German producer AKKI gives us behemoth peak-time techno shot through with chill-inducing choirs and a stirring string section on ‘Lost In Time’.

Rotterdam’s IOSIO steps up for track six with his uniquely bouncy sound: full of groove and pump, ‘Echoes Of Heaven’ is a bouncy sonic delight. 2HOT2PLAY team up with Poland-based artist Linds for a meaty spot of trance-infused techno on the infectious ‘Type Of Beat’, followed by emerging Italian producer Flour, whose signature brand of trancey hard techno goes full throttle on ‘Galattica’. It’s merciless beats, ravey acid and clear instruction to ‘dance all night’ on Brazilian artist Molothav’s lethal ‘Acid All Night Long’, followed by Até & Salin’s irresistibly energetic call to arms ‘Mess’, where cheeky vox and metallic synth stabs pounce over driving rhythms. 

Heading up the final third is Neapolitan producer Lowerzone with ‘I’ll Take You Higher’, with driving rave stabs from the oﬀ, transporting listeners to the heart of the rave. Two UK artists are next up – coming in strong with his own signature brand of hi-octane beats against a deliciously stark soundscape is returning Liverpool artist Alex Farell with ‘Move Your Body’, while Scotland’s GALLØ brings balance to proceedings with the atmospheric cut ‘Mantra’. Oiz Records label boss Onelas makes his debut with the pulsating ‘Summer Walker’, and closing out VA006 is multi-hyphenate duo Amstra & Sosya with the transcendent peak time chugger ‘Take Me Down’.

Et Cetera - Savy [FREE DL]

ARTCORE Records continues to carve a niche sound, their own trademark genre of Psy-Techno, with a string of chart topping releases whether in VA format, solo EP’s, singles or the creative new DUO release format. Two of the label strong female artists return this April, for a 4 track EP from Giorgia Angiuli and BEC.

Giorgia Angiuli’s has been an evergreen presence on the global live circuit for over a decade. With a style that’s shaped by her history as a professional composer and multi-instrumentalist, Angiuli’s perception of the ARTCORE template brings her back for her third outing and to follow up on her 2024 VA contribution ‘Rising’.

BEC’s remarkable rise within the electronic dance world is the result of tenacity and talent. She was head hunted early in her career and has since featured her music on labels including Nina Kraviz’s Trip, SPFDJ’s Intrepid Skin and BPitch, plus her own label EMBARGO, a label she launched with a debut collaboration with KiNK. The Berlin based DJ returns to ARTCORE for the first time since her single in 2024 was featured on one of the labels VA’s.

The EP opens with Giorgia Angiuli’s ‘We Dream in the Same Language’ which employs warm vocals across frenetic dance stabs and mechanicalized break downs. As unrestrained drums beat ceaselessly, zipping effects and metallic flowing synths flicker to see out the EP with a sound that perfectly blends a mix of hard, European dance styles.

Bouncing bass and starry melodics broaden the EP’s sonic appeal on BEC’s ‘Cherry Dagger’. A gliding melody that punches and swirls in unison with wavey overtones helps to define this rave imbued track that ebbs and flows amidst skittering cymbals and volatile, tremolo effects.

BEC and Giorgia Angiuli unite on ‘Seeker’, combining their faultless studio chops together for the first time. Unsettling and stirring, the pair work in tandem to unleash a dancefloor monster cast from an orchestra of apocalyptic low-end elements - such as a ponderous baritone bass and low-pitched ceremonial drumming. The track’s end-of-days-like narrative is accentuated further by swerving vehicle effects and drones that ominously hover atop the beat.

Giorgia Angiuli’s ‘Warriors of Light’ delivers a celestial mix of trance-like ambiences that are underpinned by a linear techno pattern. Sliced, monastic vocals chant as slews of menacing riffs rain down across a reverberating soundscape of shuddering bass, thunderous claps, and intoxicating grooves.

A rumbling euphony of pace-setting melodies triggers the beginning of BEC’s ‘Loca Mania’ in unapologetic style. Choppy percussion, howling sirens and liquidised synths add a dystopian texture to a composition which barrels through jittery rhythm sections with no remorse aside a pair of sporadically dotted vocal components.

In 2022, Indira Paganotto established ARTCORE with a clear vision in mind. The primary aim behind creating this label was to acknowledge and elevate the unique sound associated with Indira, which, until then, had not found a suitable representation in any existing label. It's widely recognized that this distinctive sound has been gaining rapid popularity and is finally receiving the recognition it rightfully deserves.

However, it's essential to note that ARTCORE will not be confined to a single genre. Instead, the emphasis will be on preserving authenticity and ensuring high-quality musical output. The label will serve as a platform that celebrates artistic expression, relevance, and musical heritage. Also, ARTCORE enables the opportunity for artists to be mentored directly by Indira is at the core of ARTCORE.
