//ENG// 
The third release of the year is a collection of tracks that are linked to a party. The line-up includes Artefakt, an artist on the prestigious Amsterdam label Delsin. DJ MARIA who is now a techno icon in Japan. Tasoko who has had a huge musical influence on LDG. And a debut track by YUTA's new project with the outstandingly talented O-MA.

Break techno with ambient elements by Artefakt. A masterpiece with floating synths, elegant kick and bass, and a remarkable sense of balance between each part.

A energetic groove dropped into mid-tempo, DJ MARIA. opens new doors and updates the track.

Using effects on the main riff to create the structure of the track, this downtempo track shows Tasoko's playfulness and craftsmanship.

YUTA/O-MA's track, an accidental product of their sessions, is structured in two parts, the first half being break techno and the second half changing to four beats, making it one of the most innovative pieces of listening tunes in LDG's catalogue.

Offered mastering to Tobias for listening comfort and absolute sound quality. BETA 06, released 29 October.

今年のリリース第三弾は、パーティと連動した作品集。アムステルダムの名門レーベルDelsinのアーティストArtefaktを筆頭に、今や日本のテクノアイコンとなったDJ MARIA.、音楽面でLDGに多大な影響をもたらしたTasokoと、LDG主宰のYUTAとO-MAによるデビュートラックがラインナップ！

Artefaktによるアンビエント要素が散りばめられたブレイクテクノ。フローティングな上音と、上品なキックとベース、各パーツの抜き差しのバランス感など、匠技が際立った名曲。

DJ MARIA.の代名詞であるフロアライクでエネルギッシュなグルーブをミッドテンポに落とし込む、新たな扉を開いた彼女のアップデートが著しい楽曲。

メインリフの質感とエフェクトで楽曲の構成を創る、Tasokoの遊び心が存分に発揮された職人芸と言えようダウンテンポトラック。

二人のセッションから偶発的に生み出されるYUTA/O-MAの楽曲は、前半がブレイクテクノ、後半から四つ打ちに変わる二部構成、LDG作品の中でも斬新なリスニングチューン。

サウンドテクスチャーに合わせて、マスタリングはTobias.にオファー、聴き心地とクオリティを追求したBETA 06。

OW10 Floid & W92 - Dookuzot

How can the unfamiliar feel so close? Dookuzot, the debut EP by Floid and W92 (aka Woody92), invites listeners to venture into the echo chambers of the psyche on their Omen Wapta imprint. Like a salvaged coat of arms, this 8-track release weaves the cryptic motifs of the blood brothers into its sonic fabric, blending unease with ease through stealthy rhythms and dissonant harmonies. One a sonic visionary, the other a sound artist—together, they transform decades of shared family history into an imaginary realm of the mind.

Pensive yet commanding, Dookuzot unfolds like a labyrinth, where shadowy corridors give rise to textures, shapes, and fragments of memories that never existed. Are you the hunter, or are you being hunted? Neither tempo nor zeitgeist grounds the EP; instead, it conjures a citadel of sound—an intricate fortification of motion and stillness. Like a medieval quest, Dookuzot sends you into the wilderness, armed with arcane energy, urging you to explore the blurred lines between the familiar and the strange. Yet, as one absorbs the full story, a central motif emerges among the obscure artefacts: brotherhood—evoking a shared yet deeply personal ancestral resonance.

Cryptic, unnerving, and undeniably strange, Dookuzot doesn’t ask you to move—it compels you. With this debut, Floid and W92 draw you into their world, setting the stage for a vision that is both enthralling and forward-thinking.

Neodruidic Transmissions VA – A sonic relic of mystical messages transmitted through time and space by futuristic druids.

In a distant future, druidic rituals have evolved into intricate sonic algorithms, unlocking portals of consciousness. This compilation is a collection of lost transmissions—resonances emerging from digital forests and the echoes of ancient incantations. Each track serves as a key to an altered state, where shamanic past and cybernetic destiny intertwine in an eternal spell. Psychedelic textures drift through half-tempo and accelerate rhythms , weaving an auditory tapestry that dissolves the boundaries between the organic and the synthetic, the archaic and the futuristic.

We begin by welcoming back our master shaman, KOP 32, who unveils an opening ritual woven with minimalist incantations expanding across the stereo field, accompanied by melodies that echo the very first spells. Next, Organic Signs’ label manager Jan Swam guides us through a landscape of shifting textures, sliced open by psychedelic synths and softened by a ceaseless whisper, keeping us suspended in a hypnotic trance. As we journey deeper into the portal, we encounter our beloved Solma, whose unmistakable neodruidic sound—so beautifully captured in his recent debut album—unfolds like an ancient prophecy.

We welcome Autogenesis, an Australian artist whose sonic alchemy has graced various esteemed labels. For this occasion, he conjures a track that rises in intensity, showcasing masterful craftsmanship in the art of space and expansion. We extend a warm welcome to the enigmatic French producer Sòn du Maquis. A shadowy architect of sound, he gifts us a track brimming with untamed energy, battle-hardened and triumphant on the dancefloor. Sirens wail through the air, summoned by the voice of a sorcerer from the abyss, weaving a spell that lingers long after the last echo fades.And finally, closing the neofuturistic portal, we present WAPAQ—the visionary duo of xci and blechh—making also their Organic Signs debut. They leave us with a spectral transmission, a hypnotic blend of celestial pulses and subterranean echoes, a spellbinding finale to this sonic odyssey.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Sindh - Interstate [SINDH004]

Across four tracks, it looks to merge minimalism with rhythmic invention, starting with the rugged 'Psi' with its thudding kicks and moody synths. 'Fluid' then brings more lithe, urgent rhythms with deft sound designs adding a futuristic edge and 'Interstate' then brings more raw texture and tension with heavy drones and paranoid spoken words that pan about the mix. 'Resin' shuts down with a nice tight blend of kicks and hits that is easy to latch onto and get lost in.
