Axel Karakasis - Modest Fear

Voltaic. Relentless. Precision-cut.
Crossfire is dark, high-tension techno built as a duel in sound — two lead motifs colliding over a steel-framed low-end, trading blows between impact and release. The groove is locked, the transients are razor-clean, and the bass tail is sculpted for clarity rather than mud or hype.

The track moves like a controlled detonation: tightly wound build-ups, pressure-point drops, and surgical automation across the stereo field. Metallic perc, gated atmospheres, and morphing synth lines weave in and out of each other like opposing forces locked in a stand-off — aggressive, but never sloppy; cinematic, but never overdecorated.

Intent: a focused burst of energy for peak moments — a weapon for darker floors that still carries the premium, minimal, and intelligent DNA of the MIGU universe.

Chapter I — Fracture & Form
Within the first MIGU chapter, Crossfire is the trial by impact — the moment where everything forged so far is tested under pressure. Instinct (Basic Instinct), shadow (Nightmare), and light (Afterlight) have already shaped the core; Hexforge has given it form. Crossfire asks a simple question at full volume: can that form hold when opposing forces collide? The answer — and the final choice — lives in Never Look Back.

Specs for DJs:
• BPM: 128
• Key: F# minor (update if different)
• Length: 5:00

The Drum Leader (JvD Edit) - Cosmic Gate x Lisa Lashes (1)

Soma favourite SLV marks a return to the label with a brand new single, Reflected Light EP. With a special concept album in the works, the Berlin based producer drops three uniquely crafted tracks that show a maturation of his already well sculpted sound. 

Title track Reflected Light is an energetic, rave infused track set to SLV's signature rolling, powerful drum workouts. Dreamscapes take has SLV on an acid tip reminiscent of early Plastikman. A subtle yet eerily deep acid line drifts across well crafted percussive elements that are drenched in just enough reverb to deliver that atmospheric tension. Keeping things fresh, SLV rounds of the EP with a tougher broken beat affair. Twisted, modulating leads snarl throughout as rock hard drums set the pace.

Gynoid Audio is an established outfit based in Australia, which is a member of the Elektrax Music collective of labels headed up by DJ Hi-Shock.

Trunkline are a collaborative French duo made up of good friends Madben and Yann Lean who have merged their sounds and showcase their talents in live sets. Production wise the pair have featured on a variety of labels ranging from Suara, Ellum, Bedrock, OFF Recordings, KMS and many more.

For this DT:Premiere we selected “Afterworld” as it’s full of angst and quick out the gate with a blasting beat. The abrasive build up of analogue tones set the scene for the almighty bleeping hook that lets you know it’s beginning to power up. The gothic tone and intense, rolling pulses will turn clubs and crowds upside down under its spell.

Slam - Desolate Spaces EP ( @Soma 578d)

1. Desolate Spaces
2. The Purge 
3. Infiltration
4. The Rush

Label heads Slam return to Soma Records with the Desolate Spaces EP. Despite current circumstances, the Glaswegian duo demonstrate true techno mastery with their expertly produced latest EP. All 4 tracks clearly show the pair’s dynamic and inventive creative streak continues amid the current lockdown situation. 
 
Title track ‘Desolate Spaces’ leads the way with a huge rave-infected synth and an intense and overpowering drum track. The Purge leans more on distorted elements, using them to create dynamic movement throughout the track whilst remaining full of that typical Slam groove. Infiltration has clever, inventive FX use to create a warped environment as straight up percussive elements build the drive. Closing out the EP is The Rush a full on and explosive Techno tirade that hit full blast from the start and delivers consistent momentum
