Roza Terenzi & D.Tiffany - Melting Ladies

Something felt off, she couldn't put her finger on exactly what but it were as though she were detached from herself - her body merely a vessel for her mind to exist. She floated through her house, drifted through her office, hovered over the streets like a ghostly spirit that had left this planet long ago. What could bring her back to solid ground and connect her with her body once more? Or would her spirit wander for eternity?

Bitterfeld returns! The Leipzig-based label, affiliated with R.A.N.D Muzik Recordings, is dropping back down to earth with a brand new sampler and a fresh line up in attendance. The first edition of FOR A BITTER TOMORROW came all the way back in 2019 before the world got turned on its head and featured sonic nourishment from Guy Contact, label boss Carmel, Consulate and Bitterfeld regular Interviews. It's the latter who returns for 'Band 2', joined by fresh faces Salomo, Qwerty and Jónbjörn who explore the expanses of techno, braindance and electro.

PREMIERE: Salomo - Body Talk [Bitterfeld]

Montreal-based producer https://soundcloud.com/priori-ties Priori has a new release on the horizon with Midgar's "Pareidolia." The title is inspired by the phenomenon of recognizing familiar patterns in random objects, which Priori artfully incorporates into his sound design. Imagine anthropomorphic water droplets ascending to a higher plane of existence. The release coincides with the label's 9th anniversary. 

Written and produced by Francis Latreille
Mastering by Anne Taegert at D&M Berlin

Capes & Adult Hits - Move Your Body

Astral VIP (and more) are here to remedy the monotony! by rehashing what you’ve already heard? but alas, no one is perfect. Outliers and outcasts have always created pockets in the mould of the city, smoke and wubs away from the lights and hammer. This collection of 14 tracks comes from such a dent, representative of different scenes all dedicated to this approach, coming from dank corners, away from big business.

Our offering is a tribute to the mix CDs of dance before (Global Underground et al), with AVIP’s very own Dugong on the 1s and 2s blending contributions from analogous crew into one continuous mix. Future-past made present, for potentially discontinued CD drives. For the sake of tangibility, in times that surge ahead regardless.

All profits from this compilation are being donated to 3EZWA Legal Fund, to help financially assist those facing draconian legal fees as part of the current protest movement in solidarity with Palestine & Lebanon.

Martin Kuška returns into the waters of melodic dreamy progressive and distinctive techno under the artist name Goodbye Mirage to release EP Thrills and Maybe Ecstasy. After experimenting with ambient and soundtrack soundscapes last year, he serves up a 5-track club EP in which, while ignoring many current trends, he explores how far we can push the intensity of our experiences and passions.

Czech producer, enthusiastic selector, freelance writer, lover of vintage synthesizers and various aspects of electronic music, he began his journey more than ten years ago on the local label Krmelec, later releasing a 12-inch record on Berlin based Massimiliano Pagliara's label Funnuvojere and a cassette albums on US Origin Peoples and Sacred Phrases. In recent years, Martin mainly released on the Lithuanian Electric Shapes, and last year's mini-LP full of oppressive ambient was released in Japan, on Umé Records, which is run by Canadian producer Precipitation, real name Zefan Sramek. Martin Kuška signed his latest production on the border of melancholic techno and progressive house to the established European techno label Diffuse Reality. The group of enthusiasts and promoters behind Diffuse Reality is constantly expanding, whether it is organizing international Theorema festivals or opening their own record store near the central Plaza España square in Barcelona.

"I prepared Thrills and Maybe Ecstasy with quite clear symbolism, but as time goes by, it has become a much broader collage of thoughts about our lives, how we deal with them, what we pay attention to, what makes sense, and maybe even how deeply we are here for each other. I want the songs to take you to the dance floor, but also force you to think. With all the rawness and subtlety at the same time. That's how I like it," says the producer, adding that the long-thought-out cover by Zuzana Průchová and the meanings of the track titles themselves should also contribute to enhancing the symbolism of the new release, giving ample room for reflection.

The EP Thrills and Maybe Ecstasy, featuring tracks like No Other Sentiment Can Match or Then The Sunset Was Surreal, was created mainly on the Nord Lead 3, Studio Electronics SE-3X, Korg MS2000 and Modal 001 synths in combination with the DAW Reason 10 and its many Rack Extensions. Releases March 3, 2025.

At the crossroads of genres, Last Chance gives birth to Past Forward. On this second project, the producer plays with the codes of trancy house, blending them with a genuine love for dark disco! This year, Last Chance has refined their musical identity—shaped by frequent trips to Berlin—infusing their tracks with a strong new wave influence. Still enamored with nights spent lost in synths, Last Chance takes us on a retro-futuristic journey deep into the 80s, into a no-tomorrow cyberpunk dystopia where only the dancefloor matters.

440 Hz is a producer and relentless digger based in Nantes. With a background in sound engineering, he explores the fringes of bass music through hybrid textures and sharp sound design, with a strong focus on detail and impact. His new EP, Transient, reflects this approach — a project that’s both introspective and physical, shaped by influences from the Australian and UK scenes (Iota, Ok EG, Sam Brickell…).

Blending ambient and bass, Transient brings together airy melodies and dense low-end, driven by tight, organic rhythms. A sense of nostalgia runs throughout, echoing childhood memories and raw sonic tension. Two remixes by Neida and Portway extend this dynamic with their own distinct textures.

Spotted on labels like Krakzh (Théo Muller) and Jerry Horny, 440 Hz has performed on stages such as Astropolis and UBU. His live sets showcase a precise and ever-evolving musical vision.
