Intelliance [ar_001]

"Unkind Beats" is a masterfully executed fusion of characterful, intricate chords and classic 909 drum sequences. The pounding beat serves as an undeniable club tool, transmitting the energy of simplicity from past times to the present. A continuously evolving synthesizer line embodies the distinctive Ben Ritz sound. The symbiosis of these two dimensions appears as a merging of the past three decades, communicating with the experiencing individual's body and mind.

Ben Ritz - Unkind Beats

The progressive, broken rhythm guides the arrangement of several laser and synth sounds, gradually modulating over time.
Subsequently, a frenetic interplay between high-pitched drums and fleeting, peculiar sounds creates a digital amusement park-like atmosphere.
"Ride With Us" grants the listener glimpses into a unique and visionary sound landscape, instantly captivating its senses.

Xen Chron - Ride With Us

The track starts with a focus on the stumbling beat and gradually evolves into a supersonic vibe, supported by a flangey dub melody and the aesthetic of fluttering forward and backward-played hi-hat sequences. A repetitive humanoid voice subliminally communicates through confusing number sequences.
"Vertigo" is an outstanding composition that merges the stylistic elements of different genres.

Scoped - Vertigo

The analog production "A Small Piece From April 26" takes listeners on an acoustic flight through playful ambient sonic landscapes—a captivating sound story. 
Guided by synapse-stimulating, consciously employed crunchy percs and drums, its driving rhythms have the power to transport the individual into a trance-like state. Despite its 9-minute length, the composition's development remains fascinating, consistently energized by its organic characteristics.

Cerrot - A Small Piece From April 26

‘Metal Form Suite’ is a culmination of the sounds that inspire the label in its endeavour to create scaled events with underground and DIY tendencies. Through this compilation and curation, General Merchant is showcasing the range of sounds that you may expect to hear at one of their warehouse parties.

General Merchant acknowledges that it operates on stolen land, belonging to the Gadigal and Wangal people of the Eora Nation, and we pay our respects to Aboriginal elders past, present and emerging.

DH010 – Notte Infinita
Manila Killer Float / Slippery Ruff

Two ultra-wet, slippery dancehall mutations, completed during the hottest summer days in a few sweaty sessions at Studio Distante.

Manila Killer Float is an uplifting bubbly dancehall thing with a Vybz Kartel acapella chopped up and sprinkled on top. Tried to fight gravity and catch the last summer breeze with the beat floating on those airy pads – and of course celebrating the release from prison of the World Boss.

Slippery Ruff is the chugger-town cousin of Slippery Tuff, from INDEX:records EP I Lost All My Data. I took the bpm down from 120 to 90 and ruff‘d it up with some extra dust and bass weight for good measure.

Decoys explore the ways that internal perception distorts and develops as it navigates the fluid boundaries of the self. The EP’s title invokes the distracting and alluring elements of an incomplete double—an illusion that, upon closer inspection, uncovers something perhaps even deeper than its originating source. The title track pairs driving rhythms with dark, rustling atmospheres and layers of competing bass punctured by the screech of unidentifiable machines to create a relentless forward momentum with no clear destination. “Imitation Body” layers found sound to assemble a beat that pushes and pulls with a distinct swing, anchored by ghost-like ambiance and an insistent low end. On “Fear Of Others,” paranoia and uncertainty channel into a chest-rattling dubstep excursion. As the track shifts between two distinct moods, the elements anchoring it mutate and shift. The EP closes with “Respite,” a breathy half-time closer accented by bursts of frenetic sound and warbling bass, as though the music itself is resisting disintegration.

Four years since her last dancefloor 12", @upsammy returns to Dekmantel with a four-track exploration of gleaming, sprightly drum and bass with a restorative centre. Thessa Torsing's moves in upper tempo zones have been defined by her light touch, finding power and presence in finely chiseled sounds and sculpting space between intricate, interwoven rhythms.

The dynamic movement of her pristinely moulded percussion is absolutely geared up for the club, but it's also matched with an uplifting, meditative sound palette which tempers the busy energy of the drums. Pushing and pulling on her arrangements with ever-increasing expressiveness and revelling in the subtlest of modulations to her kinetic beat systems, upsammy proves once again that moving in time to fast music can be an incredibly restorative experience.

Priori’s hit EP Pareidolia gets a well deserved remix treatment. The relation between Priori and Midgar started early 2023 with the release of his Pareidolia EP, where a remix for Keplrr followed quickly the year after. Now, early 2025, a group of close friends and admired artists were invited to rework the Pareidolia’s originals.

We're anticipating the release of the full EP with sound experimentalist Notte Infinita, who takes his turn on Pareidolia’s title track and creates some magnificent eyes-closed drum & bass hypnotism.

Presenting a portfolio of twitchy techno tectonics with a sharp line in corporate acumen, LDS returns to the market with a double-dose of limber futurism for PM+.
 
Stuttgart shock broker Luca Daniel Schwarz has been firing and perspiring on all cylinders since he went public around 2016. Past form for the likes of Subwax BCN and Blue Hour have all shown a deadly instinct for modern variations on the techno tradition, and he keeps pushing at the form with a fine balance between playful disruption and poker-face propulsion.
 
'Business Influencer Theme' is a jagged bolt of hi-tech soul littered with crafty edits, luminescent synth strokes and a mid-section pep talk to get you match fit for the midnight power lunch. 'Portal Merge (Peak Mix)' leans towards the growling, subtly emotive brand of electro pioneered by the Weatherall-Tenniswood dream team, bolstered with modernist sound design flex and another canny helping of sliced-up word salad.
 
Forecasting at the intersection of social commentary and cutting-edge club clout with devastating clarity, LDS packs a lot into his wry, laser-focused motivational workouts. The outlook is weightier than a hedge fund manager's bloated bar tab.
