Never Going To Know

Hard to believe how time flies – it's been exactly 6 years, 4 months, and 19 days since we released our very first compilation. Back then, everything was new and we had no idea where the journey would take us. Over the years, downtempo has evolved significantly and continuously reinvented itself.

Today, we're releasing our tenth and - for now - final compilation. From the beginning, it was important to us to provide a platform for new and emerging artists – and up until this tenth compilation, we’re proud to say that no artist appeared more than once. For this special occasion, we're breaking with that tradition and have invited several long-time companions to join us in shaping this moment.

A big thank you to all the artists for their contributions, and to all our listeners for your continued support. Special thanks also go to Kilian Van de Water, whose unique style has always played a key role in creating the overall identity of our label.

Matija and Richard Elcox are back in full monadic flow, presenting the Ant Farm EP - a playful yet thought-provoking dive into perception and possibility.

This release is a reminder: what we see isn’t all there is. Like an ant farm with its intricate inner universe, Ant Farm invites us to think beyond the obvious, to explore the hidden, the magical, the layered realities beneath the surface. Don’t think in limits. Think in wonders. Life itself is one.

Musically, Matija & Richard deliver as always: clean, deep, and beautifully surprising. The vibe flows with melodic atmosphere, organic textures, and hypnotic breaks - instruments emerge, rhythms evolve, and a story unfolds.

On remix duty, K2WO brings his signature bounce and clarity - a tight, grooving reinterpretation that hits home. Dario Klein turns up the energy with driving beats, acid touches, and that late-night lift-off vibe.

A colorful, bouncing ant farm of sound --- full of individuality, depth, and motion.

➟ All platforms: https://go.protonrad.io/rleGXiSRo8-1U

Listening to Tolga Maktay's new EP "Core" is like not wearing a T-shirt that says "Antihero" even though you've put it on. Wearing the T-shirt that says
"Antihero" is like not being able to get Tolga Maktay's EP "Core" out of your head, even though the weekend is still to come. But if you've really found the
"core", you won't tell me where it is.

You want to tell me? Then you'd better swap the T-shirt for a book by Rumi. Let Rumi dress you up entirely so that you finally realize who you are not. The true
antihero must be against everything. The absolute antihero is against absolutely everything. He is against your will, against your concepts, against all the hate
and all the self-obsession. The antihero is specifically against you. Does that trigger you? Do you prefer to play the hero? Then throw away Rumi's book and
write a new one that tells everyone how everything should be. Start an "Urban Cult" that shows everyone how everything should be. But the book of the antihero tells us how everything is not. The book of the antihero is even against the antihero.

There are already many versions of this book. This version here is sound and dance. This version is high culture with depth and subculture on a high. This
version is by Tolga Maktay, Kunterweiß, Judith Ahrends and Onur Diner and you can find it on Meeronauten Musik. But just when you think you've finally
found the "core", you should listen to the music again and again. Maybe then it will reveal what is not meant by it. Savvy?

PREMIERE: Last Gentleman On Playa - Juzu (MiRET Remix) [ It’s good to be a tree ]

Kolja & Bepo - Schwarm

💭 A swarm is a formation of many birds flying as one. They move together in perfect coordination, gaining incredible strength through unity. As a group, they can cover hundreds of kilometers, almost like a single organism, following its own rules, rhythm and instincts. It is a beautiful metaphor for connection, movement and collective energy just like in music and at those events where different elements come together to create something greater than the sum of their parts.

🎵 This brand new EP features two top tier downtempo bangers. For the title track, Kolja & Bepo joined forces with Caspimo and Firewrks to create a true anthem about swarm. Just like birds in flight, the track captures a feeling of freedom and elevation. The drops hit hard and deliver pure, high class energy.
The second track, “Ibiza”, leans more into a progressive vibe. It features well arranged synth lines and carefully designed SFX, giving the track a rich and dynamic texture. Overall, this EP is a joyful ride full of organic vibes, emotional drive and deep groove. Thank you for listening.
