Next up on The Vulged Series are founders @flitstechno & @lassetechno. This duo, performing together on a regular base in the Amsterdam scene, teamed up once more for The Vulged Series. A subtle and steadily building approach, yet driving and energetic, would be the best description of the sound of this duo. The full set is available on our YouTube with footage: https://youtu.be/ED9sJNpDy20?si=3qxfhHGCcBEYRP5m

The Vulged Series #002 - Flits b2b Lasse

@ellicame

For our 20th episode of materiacast series, we're delighted to have Parisian DJ Ellicam.

She's part of a new generation of French artists who draw their inspiration from stripped-down, definitively hypnotic techno.
Ellicam shapes her mixes through an architectural vision by seeing tracks as textures. Her palette combines percussive and atmospheric tracks in order to take her listener on a mental journey. 

This mix draws the landscape for a trip through hypnotic techno by exploring sharp and immersive tracks.

Enjoy!

Materiacast #020 - Ellicam

From the frenetic rhythms and industrial beats was born the project @iamzxzx, which now in a new symbiosis of hypnotic motifs and minimalist movements has given rise to what he himself considers to be the perfect combination of his skills and detailed taste for electronic music.

Raul, hailing from Porto, began creating around 2012 with direct influence from projects like Burial, Aphex Twin, and Boards of Canada. Through experimentation and the endeavor to incorporate everyday technology into his productions, he encountered one of his greatest influences to this day, Richie Hawtin. Since then, several projects emerged leading to the creation of zxzx at the end of 2019, already becoming one of the most recognized names in the Portuguese underground movement.

With a sound that results from meticulous study across the foundations of past, present, and future within the spectrum of electronic music, having released on various labels worldwide and performed at the most renowned Portuguese clubs, it's hard for anyone to remain indifferent to what he brings to the dance floors or in his releases.

The opportunity to showcase his art at events alongside Dax J, Rodhad, Mark Broom among others, has demonstrated his dedication whether as an opening or closing act, always receiving excellent reviews and strong recommendations. Furthermore, his recent affiliation with the Porto collective Analytical Convenience, where he has already released the track "Berlin (I Miss You)", shows his immense commitment to fostering the development of other young artists and a cooperative spirit for the evolution of the local scene.

A1. Computed Love
A2. Determinated
B1. Enter The State
B2. Enlighten
Digital only - Find Yourself


INFO:

Promising label newcomer IGLO returns to Figure with his second EP this year, building on a distinct sonic identity shaped by a background in classical music and live performance. Across five tracks, he further refines his mix of atmospheric depth, precise rhythms, and melodic nuance.
This time, his own voice takes on a more central role, adding a personal and expressive layer to the productions. On opener Computed Love, restrained, longing vocals blend into squelchy synths and minimal grooves — hauntingly beautiful, yet gritty with rumbling machine funk. Determined follows with a more menacing tone, its sharp percussion cutting through a bleak, shadowy atmosphere — perfect for building tension on the floor.
On the flip, IGLO switches up the mood: Enter the State runs on hypnotic loops and chopped-up piano riffs, peppered with cheeky, spoken-word style vocals that nod to ghetto house traditions. It breaks into an irresistible, swinging groove that hits with full force.
Offering a smooth counterpoint, Enlighten drifts into dubby terrain. Soft, ricocheting vocal snippets and warm chords conjure a hopeful, human glow — a bouncy balm for the soul, without losing its forward momentum.
Digital bonus track Find Yourself closes the EP on a spacious, almost sci-fi note — twinkling synths and airy melodies float above crisp textures, like a breath of fresh air at the end of a long night.With X49, IGLO deepens his connection with Figure and sharpens his unique voice — equally grounded in introspection and dancefloor impact, continuing to shape a sound that’s thoughtful, bold, and marks him as one to watch.
