Lakej Returns to Soma Records with Static Future

Swedish techno innovator Lakej is back on Soma Records with a brand new release that delves even deeper into the introspective, hypnotic soundscapes that have defined his sonic identity. Known for his stripped-back, yet emotionally charged productions, Lakej’s latest offering continues his evolution within the genre while staying true to the atmospheric minimalism that first captured attention on earlier Soma releases.

The new EP, titled 'Static Future', showcases Lakej's mastery of tension and release, blending polyrhythmic percussion, evolving textures, and subterranean basslines. Each track unfolds like a ritual; tight, immersive, and meticulously crafted for the dancefloor.

Following a string of acclaimed releases on Soma, Lakej cements his role as one of the label’s most distinctive voices in contemporary techno. 'Static Future' marks not just a continuation but a refinement of the hypnotic minimalism he has become known for—pushing the boundaries while keeping the essence intact.

GRÜVCAST10 • JXXXO & West Code

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.

BCCO Premiere: Red Rooms - Debris [MR039]

Next up in our series, we drift into the deep with Yazmin, a Maltese DJ and producer whose sound fuses hypnotic energy with a steady pulse of groove and drive.

Her story starts early, inspired by the surge of electronic music that swept through Malta and never really left her. What began as curiosity grew into a craft  defined by rolling rhythms, shadowy textures, and a subtle tension that keeps the dancefloor locked in.

As a resident at Glitch Festival, Yazmin has built her name on carefully sculpted sets that balance intensity and flow, while her releases on Skryptöm, Children Of Tomorrow, Liberta Records and GRÜV showcase the same refined touch in production.

Thank you for your work.
