As electronic music pioneers and co-founders of Soma Records, Slam have continually shaped the landscape of underground techno. With their forthcoming album, Dark Channel, they present a raw, club-focused record that stands as both a reflection of our turbulent times and a celebration of the dance floor’s enduring power.

In 2025, the world feels fractured, dominated by division and extremism. Amidst this chaos, the dance floor remains a rare sanctuary—one of unity, self-expression, and collective escape. Dark Channel is an unapologetic tribute to this sacred space, where rhythm dissolves barriers and music serves as a universal language. Through relentless energy, deep textures, and hypnotic grooves, the album embodies the essence of club culture: a place where we reconnect with ourselves and each other.

Slam make no mistake when it comes to the sonic tone of the album as it opens with the tribalistic Use It, Lose It before the discordant sounds of title track Dark Channel hints at the relentless nature of things to come. The intensity continues with Parametric Factor & Glide - both pushing a pulsating, synth driven trip; the later leading on a more traditional Slam percussive workout. The dance floor warping Morganatic pursues dark territory while Infinit Spaces adds trippy FX to an already animated synth hook. The beautifully crafted Kuture Version delves into a more immersive sound as more direct, chord driven elements take the lead. The pace quickens yet again with Ghost Dancer highlighting sub tones whilst still crafting ominous intonations with its modulating FX. Approaching the conclusion, the ferocious Beat On The Drum delivers a lesson in rhythm and energy before the contorted Irregular Object completes proceedings in a suitably hypnotic fashion.

Our number 103 release comes by no other than Metro Skim, an analog technology specialist and true underground hero. He has worked for legendary labels such as Fat Cat or Steve Bicknell’s 6 dimension.
 
His personal vision on techno has attracted Jeff Mills or Dimi Angelis to name but a few, usually playing his works and now it’s time for us to have him in the house with a whole album.
 
Inside this collection you won’t find any intro or interlude, just raw and crude dancefloor exercises, provided at high tempos, rugged and merciless but mental and abstract at the same time.
 
You can smell the crudeness of hardware in every second of this workout from beginning to end. Tools that drill your mind and add organic spice to your mixes, carefully arranged and sound designed for optimal performance in the club.
 
Hypnotic and martian but also punchy and dynamic all this tunes definitely standout from the invasion of clones out there. This is timeless underground dance music at its best.
 
From the genesis of the project Metro Skim keeps things personal and unique, putting computers aside, maintaining the human versus machine interaction pure and direct.
 
For sure one of our most promising artists so far. We hope you feel the same. Welcome to another sound universe.

Tracklist:

A2. Silence
A3. Arboria
B1. Orlok
B2. Blurred Line
B3. Nobody
C1. Zepsute Zęby

The release is set to premiere on May 16th 2025 in both vinyl and digital format. Blurred Line is the result of ISNT’s sonic explorations at the intersection of ambient, techno, and film music. It is hypnotic, spacious, and infused with an undertone of unease. Rhythmically, it draws inspiration from industrial and electro, yet it is not entirely designed for the dance floor. The album was created during different phases of the artist’s life. Some of the tracks stem from her work on the soundtrack for the 1924 silent film The Hands of Orlac, others were developed during jam sessions in Gorzów, while some are variations on live material performed before the pandemic. Despite its varied origins, the album is unified by the artist’s distinct modus operandi.

This is an example of musical storytelling—ISNT has conjured up a captivating and immersive soundscape, blending industrial influences with intricate, cinematic textures and pulsating rhythms.

The album’s cinematic quality and attention to atmosphere are not just a result of specific commissions but an integral part of ISNT’s creative process. While producing music, she often watches horror, science-fiction, and surrealist films on mute, looping selected scenes and allowing visual stimuli to guide her artistic decisions. This contributes to the experimental nature of her approach to techno— spatial, layered, and defined by a distinctive sense of coldness. However, the primary image accompanying her throughout the album’s creation was the reality unfolding around her.

The closing track, Zepsute Zęby (Decayed Teeth), is the most personal piece in her discography, born from a need to purge painful emotions. This cathartic dark ambient outro is filled with piercing, unsettling sounds.

ISNT is the alias of Katarzyna Kwiatkowska, a Polish DJ, producer, and activist based in the French part of the Basque Country. She is a co-founder of the Oramics collective, which advocates for the visibility of women and non-binary artists from Eastern Europe on the global electronic music scene. Active for 20 years, she has performed at major festivals and clubs both in Poland and abroad. She is also the founder of the Behind the Stage event series and label. Her mixes have been featured by platforms across Europe.

Premiere of "Paradigma" by Natvie Default, taken from "Paradigma" EP, forthcoming on Meet Recordings 

Pre - Order: 
https://meetrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/paradigma-ep

Label: Meet Recordings 
Artist: Native Default
Title: Paradigma EP 
Track: Paradigma
Format: Digital
Catalogue Number: MEET038
Release Date: May 16, 2025

Meet Recordings is proud to present its latest release: Paradigma, the debut EP by the exciting new artist Native Default. Bursting onto the scene with undeniable energy and a clear vision, Native Default brings something truly special to the table with this five track techno journey. At its core, Paradigma is a love letter to techno in all its forms but it doesn't stop there. Drawing heavily from the golden age of acid, this EP is packed with punchy, hypnotic, and deeply driving tracks that feel equally at home on late night dancefloors or in underground warehouses. Every beat pushes forward with purpose, evoking the energy and freedom that make club nights unforgettable. The title track Paradigma sets the tone deep, rolling, and entrancing while the Tom Active Remix gives it a fresh, club-ready twist. Tracks like Age of Immortality and Faith on the Dancefloor deliver serious momentum, while Acid Dublin taps directly into that old-school acid spirit with a modern edge. It’s clear: this is techno that doesn’t hold back. With influences ranging from hypnotic minimalism to raw acid power, Native Default’s debut makes a strong statement. Paradigma isn’t just a release it’s a call to the floor.
