ATNL005 - A.J. Matos - Studio Mix from Toronto, Canada

Artist: Marteka Fair
Title: 'Frisson'
Label: VAST Recordings
Cat. #: VAST004
Format: Digital
Release: 15th August,​ ​2025
Pre order: https://weareallvast.bandcamp.com/music

Sounds From NoWhere is pleased to premiere a new Marteka Fair' track remixed by JAK on 'Vast Recordings'.

As rich sonically as it is in social commentary, Marteka Fair’s latest techno EP is a perfect fit for the budding discography of VAST.

Marteka Fair is from North Carolina, and the American DJ and producer is a key part of the local scene co-creating Liminal Space, a live concert series with visual artist Fluxxss that merges sound and image into a shared, sensory environment. 
She has not only appeared on club and festival line-ups alongside Rrose, Rødhåd, DVS1, and Bloody Mary, but also lists releases on Berlin’s W133, Infra, and Maison Fauna, while being behind the A&R for VAST’s releases.

The Life After Internet EP consists of four tracks along with remixes by Bekkler and JAK. 
It draws inspiration from a time when the information revolution lay at our fingertips, promising what seemed at the time like a utopian frontier of human connection.


Rounding out the original singles appearing on the tracklist of the EP is “Frisson.” 
While markedly more melodic than the music preceding it, its arrangement meanders in a way that might sound random to the untrained ear. 
JAK expanded upon this complex emotional palette in his remix, spinning it into the lore of an exhilarating story.

Tracklist:	
1. Glaskin - Reverb (feat. Malwina)
2. IGLO - Recruiter
3. Sicion - In Their Name
4. Yanamaste - Broken Woods
5. Sept - Down From The Summit

They're well established, yet fresh in their approach to sound and dancefloor spark. From aquatic, bleepy grooves delivered by the Munich duo Glaskin, through perfectly deep, enigmatic cut by the talented IGLO, playful minimalism of our French brother Sicion, then rich and pacey firecracker from the Georgian temper Yanamaste, to the label regular, our own Sept, with an epic finale full of tension and poignant chords.

This is our statement of quality and timelessness - a material that we are more than proud to press onto vinyl to prolong its resonance. Vital and elegant techno expressing the dance-like power of maximalism through minimalism.

KYSH-001

Reverb (feat. Malwina)

Premiere: Glaskin — Reverb (feat. Malwina) [KYSH-001]

Release Date: 24.10.2025

SHDW presents ‘Federation Of Rytm IV’: a bumper 30-track collection spanning the past, present, and future of techno. 

Offering powerful standalone club cuts and a cohesive deep-dive, the expansive VA lands on 24th October 2025. 
The fourth edition of SHDW’s flagship ‘Federation Of Rytm’ VA series has been carefully curated by the DJ/ producer and head honcho over more than a year, with close attention to detail given to sequencing. It is a balance of label regulars and debutants that represents the past, present, and future, both sonically and through the generational diversity of the artists involved. There are plenty of surprises along the way while always remaining true to the Mutual Rytm ethos and reflecting the journey of the night from start to finish, whether that's in intimate, sweaty clubs or on big festival stages. 

"I’ve lived with most of these tracks for over a year, testing them on the dancefloor and fine-tuning the selection. Each comes from artists I deeply admire, making this compilation a snapshot of the label’s evolution and a glimpse of what’s next. ‘Federation Of Rytm IV’ celebrates connection across generations, while capturing the sounds that inspire me most — telling a story from start to finish.” – SHDW. 

Across 30 tracks in the digital collection and 24 on four sides of wax, the release explores the full breadth of the Mutual Rytm sound. Driving grooves and relentless percussion set the pace, gradually unfolding into hypnotic and atmospheric passages that invite deeper immersion. Pulsating low-end power alternates with eerie minimalism, while bursts of futuristic energy and cavernous kick drums keep the tension high. Elsewhere, dub textures and moments of introspection provide balance, creating a narrative arc that moves fluidly between intensity and release, atmosphere and tension, darkness and light. 

‘Federation Of Rytm IV’ lands as a 4x12” vinyl package and digitally via Mutual Rytm on 24th October 2025.

PERYL - Vacuum [SOMA SELECTS Premiere]

For Liberta’s 65th release, I return with a 4-track EP that continues to blend personal roots with club-focused energy. Samba Part II picks up where its predecessor left off, channelling the vibrant rhythms and carnival spirit of Rio de Janeiro into a fresh new form. Mosquitoes brings hypnotic tension with sharp percussion and rolling grooves, while Silk Road dives into a trippy atmosphere driven by acid-infused synth lines. Closing the EP, Thirsty Trap works as a relentless roller, built around classic loopy stabs that keep the energy locked in motion.

Together, the four tracks showcase different shades of my productions, tied by a focus on movement, intensity, and dancefloor connection.
