Italian DJ and producer VALENTINØ makes his debut on ARTCORE this February, with a killer 2 track original release showcasing his trademark hypnotic melodies and frenetic rhythms. With past releases on Second State, Suara and Materia, he also is the co-founder of Mantra Club
in Genoa and runs his own label Overtime Records. You’ll find him playing some of the ARTCORE Showcases that Indira Paganotto announced last month, alongside Indira herself, Chris Liebing, Ben Klock...

From the brooding beginnings of ‘Baba Baby’ it becomes clear that whilst VALENTINØ has sought to embody the ARTCORE aesthetic within the EP title track, he is just as earnest in his commitment to producing fast and unsparing techno. Following a cocktail of deftly layered drums comes the crackling of fireworks to signal take-off for a mercurial rush through a dark lunar journey dispersed by unearthly vocals, frazzling synths, and pummelling bass.

Up next, ‘My Mind’ wastes no time in thundering into gear with bruising intensity and little sympathy for those unprepared. VALENTINØ’s cerebral understanding of his craft allows for a distinct take on quintessential techno as off-kilter drum-breaks and eyebrow raising effects – such as the “surprise” – add oodles of character and dashes of colour to an otherwise shadowy soundscape.

It's clear why VALENTINØ’ has been selected for the boundary pushing imprint’s next release as looks to further establish her already compelling reputation through ARTCORE’s artist roster.

VALENTINØ’S ‘Baba Baby’ is available from 22nd February via ARTCORE.

Federico Guerrero debuts on Gomboc Records with an intriguing and deep trance groove.

TEUTON - Bonkers [ARTCORE]

A total of 10 tracks and 11 artists with the one collaboration on the release, ARTCORE Miami Music Week 2025 will be released on Thursday the 3rd April. Whilst welcoming back artists on the VA who have already released on the label including Joel Bird and AD7USTMENT. This release focuses on a lot of new names to both the industry and label.

Ida Engberg needs no introduction, the Swedish producer and DJ began her career, at the age of 13 spinning vinyls. With a residency In Ibiza under her belt, and countless plays for Tomorrowland, Awakenings, Ultra Music Festival and more, she makes her debut on ARTCORE with opening track 'Free Your Mind'. Richly cinematic, meticulously designed and filled with frenetic urgency, the pacy melody soon succumbs to a chilling ambience which settles atop its low-end elements. 

Rising Italian DJ/producer, Giacomo Dianz and his track 'Feel The Sound Around.' A nervous inception that begins with a chattering, panning vocal becomes fraught with brittle snares, jittering cymbals as well as tripped out a chord progression that creeps alongside. 

Andrea Marino -also a member of Germany metal band Emigrate, which no doubt has influenced the use of his stings inspired industrial aggression on his track 'The Plug Pt 2'. Delivering a choice of hard-style flavours, he merges a twisted groove with a distorted vocal presence to add a tough groove to proceedings.

The mysterious and brand-new duo, Sinnerstraxx pay homage to ARTCORE's fanbase with their track 'Warriors'. A sample taken from the cult movie of the same name features heavily within a fervent psy-charged soundscape of twinkling, morphing melodics, and drilling LFO fills to produce an undoubtable club-ready weapon.

A career of 20 years, North Italian producer KAT3X, works with a hybrid DJ set of missing samples, loops and effects with Traktor and Ableton Live or CDJs, permitting him to create different sounds for every set. He has played alongside Chris Liebing, The Advent, Oscar Mulero, Speedy J and many more, plus runs his own label KATEXIS. His track 'Number' is an intriguingly strung-out rhythm that catches your attention from the off thanks to a jack-hammer bass that pummels aside an array of giddy rave motifs. 

AD7USTMENT is on hand with ‘Doberman’. The German producer who has released on labels including Planet Rhythm, Kneaded Pains, Suara and Odd Recordings. This new track brings the heat, and high-octane energy ARTCORE is known for. A frighteningly fierce composition, it features a rhythmic drive aside complex percussive elements to cause eyeball spinning velocity from beginning to end.

French DJ and head of OIZ Records, Onelas takes no prisoners with his menacing VA effort, 'Vicious Circle.' Following a piercing, drawn-out hoover synth that contorts and coerces itself into the beat comes at hunderous percussion, a disconcerting bleeping and a wave of abstract melodics to cause a state of continuing flux. His latest releases have been featured on NineTimesNine, Reckless, NowNow and Blackworks.

UK duo, Exceed from Manchester and Liverpool have coined their name for their ability to 'go beyond what is allowed or stipulated'. Signing tracks to NineTimesNine, doof, Barbed and Innergate, they make their debut on ARTCORE with 'Revelation'. Delivering a tightly pieced together number which incorporates a stirring synth and bass lead with breaks style percussive fills that rattle, roll and explode sporadically.

Welcoming back Joel Bird to the label, as his last release was on the last Miami VA in 2024, the London based young producer, is also training to be a commercial pilot! His track 'All I See Is Ochre' is a complex piece in which the narrative is told through smart measures of static pulses and blasts of phasers to present a cosmic rush of analogue wonder. With his music supported by KI/KI and Theo Nasa, we couldn't think of a better way to close out this release.

Lola Cerise was always destined for a career in music. Growing up in France, a young Cerise would spend her formative years learning the piano before the lure of hard beats and illegal parties introduced her to a culture that would change her life forever. 

Renowned for her ability to seamlessly merge only the toughest of dance codes during her boundary pushing live sets, Lola Cerise’s music embodies her storied personal history comprehensively. It’s this impassioned energy that courses through her DNA that’s fuelled her music making earning her releases on Gomboc Records, Comme des les films, Khazad Records and Record Union as well as appearances on important channels such as, HÖR Berlin and BCCO. 

After performing on numerous line-ups together, Lola Cerise is now set to debut on Indira Paganotto’s formidable ARTCORE Records imprint with ‘I Don’t Speak German’ EP which will land on 15th May. 

Opening track, ‘Stop Stealing My Socks’ begins somewhat outlandishly with Lola Cerise packing a fantastically diverse palette of effects into an otherwise tense soundscape of charging drum fills and spaced-out pads that provide the foundations to this hallucinatory, shapeshifting melody. On ‘Less Cheese In My Raclette’, the wonderfully cartoonish energy continues as fierce breakdowns meet a mix of ‘downer’ synth lines that frivolously dance and skip whilst a whirring siren bass relentless churns beneath fierce, snappy and gnarling percussion. 

It’s clear that Lola Cerise’s has channelled her playful side into her debut ARTCORE EP as she forges on with the peculiar (but still incredibly fitting) track titles. When ‘Is That What You Wanted Mummy’ begins it brings with it an ‘edge of chaos’ suspense as unrestrained measures of high-octane, psy-infused techno rumble ominously whilst the arrival of a manic vocal sample busts opens the door to a cacophony of far out, low-end elements. As the EP tips into the second act, ‘EROTOMANIA’ emerges to a chorus of war-ready chanting whilst a fierce medley of thick kicks, pulsing bass and droning chord notes interrupt proceedings to form the track’s core before even more of the guttural vocal components that opened the track are reintroduced. A metallic, clunking opens ‘Humans Smell Rain Better Than Sharks’ before the track breaks and unfurls into a speedy but creeping composition defined by its spidery synth arrangements, coarse cymbals and ruggedly chopped vocal components. 

Closing out this ingenious off-centre EP is ‘You Look Ugly When You Drink Whiskey’ which urgently sets off using a combination of eccentric overtones, breathless vocal components and effervescent percussive drive that perilously thunders through a dramatic series of energy shifts to see out the release in a vibrant, off the wall style.

Les Voltages 8
Les Voltages 8 was a collective born in the 1970s around the Guadeloupean musician Erick Cosaque, one of the key figures in preserving and modernizing gwoka, the traditional music of Guadeloupe. Their work fused ancestral percussion, call-and-response chants, and Caribbean rhythms with touches of jazz, funk, and reggae. The group’s music carried the pulse of resistance and cultural pride, keeping alive the voice of the Afro-Caribbean identity within a changing modern world.

Pan en tchou a pan (La Palabra)
Appearing on the 1973 album Special Groska, “Pan en tchou a pan (La Palabra)” embodies the spirit of gwoka while pushing it into new spaces. The track is at once raw and hypnotic, drawing strength from drum patterns rooted in African heritage and lyrics that act as both story and statement. It is music that goes beyond entertainment, a declaration that rhythm and word are inseparable forces of memory and freedom. Listening to it is to hear how tradition can be both preserved and transformed, echoing across generations.

DarkStar - Darksong #2 (UNRELEASED)

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.
