Release Date: April 15, 2025 Format: Double 12'' & Digital

Beyond the Bridge proudly presents the latest EP from Dutch sonic architect Spekki Webu, titled "Neural Network," set to release on April 15, 2025. As the founder of Mirror Zone, Webu masterfully conjures a spectral world where time collapses and frequencies bend, inviting listeners on a mind-expanding journey through sound. His ritualistic compositions transcend conventional boundaries, merging past, present, and future into a singular, fluid moment.
The eight-track EP delves into an abstract landscape of high-intensity frequencies and textural flux. Webu’s sonic manipulations challenge linearity, evoking cyclical movements that oscillate between chaos and order. Each track serves as a kinetic force, pulsating with raw energy and enveloping the listener in immersive sonic architecture. The release also features two transformative remixes from Beyond the Bridge label head K.O.P. 32 and acclaimed producer Feral, each expanding the boundaries of interpretation into new dimensions.

Tracklist:
A1. Polymer Sensor Screening
A2. Biocell Implant
B1. Replicant Harvester

OW11 Raär - Incentive

The air shifts. Drawn from a live composition and distilled into eleven personal mantras, Raär's Incentive unfolds as a long-player sonic rite, tracing a path through a wind chamber. A narrative pulled into motion by a propulsive undercurrent.

The eleventh opus in Omen Wapta's lineage begins with flickers at the edge of vision. No clear path, just shapes that rise and vanish in the periphery. The air carries tension. Low hums lean into pressure. The ground rolls forward.

Trees bend inward. A summons breathes from below, hovering between clarity and wandering dust. The pace fractures. A space opens. Long enough to feel it pass: a shadow, a pulse, a question. Something inside has turned.

The chase tightens. Each element presses against the next. Inside the rhythm. Inside the self. Overtones shiver. The wind doesn't stop. It carries what remains. Sound, now memory. Movement, now shadow. Incentive carves deeper into Raär's terrain. Untethered, inward, and elemental. He sculpts in weight and pressure, low-end as bedrock. FX opens the ground between weight and light. Tape compression binds the vessel. Beneath, a drone exhales. Charged with trace.

Every track, a step. Each pause, a turn. Guided to feel, not to grasp.

OW11 Raär - Incentive [preview]

Artist: @gandpsyche 

Evolve was conceptualised out of a love for psychedelic electronic music. Genre-fluid and ever-shifting, EVVA002 presents a deeper, slower sonic palette that defines the label’s evolving identity. From goa-laced club tracks to warped breaks, leftfield IDM and dubbed-out prog and techno, each track adds its own twist to the psychedelic thread that runs through the heart of the label.

@mruda-bg x @archypness on @core-bluegold

BUY: https://bluegold1.bandcamp.com/album/theom

Bluegold steps into the world as a ground for trance-inducing rhythm and collective movement. Rooted in techno but never bound to it, the sound leans toward the psychedelic and the hallucinatory: loops, atmospheres, and ritual percussion that blur perception and guide the floor into altered states.

The A side is produced by Mruda, created during a phase of mental conflict on a day of madness that translated directly into sonic expression. The intention was to reflect instability and chaos by letting the machine generate random pulses powered by chance.

Considering the volatile character of the A side, Archypness is the perfect artist to flip the coin and bring something more meditative and grounded, balancing this split EP. His tracks lead the listener into a powerful journey of mindfulness, painted with rich textures and rhythms that carry the dance into shadows and timeless dimensions.

We will celebrate the release of this EP outdoors in berlin with a custom-built sound system and a lineup that embodies its vision, supported by light installations and a sun rays dissolving into fog. 6.9 day time - more details soon
