Juheun - Exhale (Original Mix) Tronic

Loose Records present Gabrielle’s latest hypnotic techno release, where analogue grooves meet immersive, otherworldly atmospherics.

Berlin-based DJ and live performer Gabrielle has rapidly made her mark on the city’s scene, commanding stages at venues such as Tresor and HÖR. Her machine-driven approach harnesses modular hardware, producing tracks that balance propulsive energy with dub-infused melodies.

At the heart of her sound lie rippling tones and stripped-back rhythms, marrying raw intensity with refined elegance. Gabrielle’s intricate synth work weaves seamlessly with dynamic percussion, crafting tracks that are both hypnotic and exhilarating.

The release opens with the atmospheric “Flourish,” flowing into the swirling tension of “Silent Hill.” “Consequence” unfolds as a slow burner centered on a deceptively simple melody, while “Running Late” elevates the energy with industrial textures and ominous pads. “Acceptance” layers bleeping synths over commanding drums for a spacious groove, and the release concludes with “A Blurred Fragment,” a dystopian soundscape punctuated by fractured percussion.

Tokyo-based techno DJ and producer Nobuharu Morimoto makes his debut on Unrilis with a hypnotic EP defined by flowing rhythms and immersive soundscapes. A fixture of the city’s underground scene, he holds residencies at two of Tokyo’s premier techno events, plug and OUTSIDER, delivering sets that span Detroit-inspired deep techno to high-energy, driving tracks.

Following releases on respected labels, Morimoto now joins Unrilis with a refined and emotionally charged sonic approach. The EP opens with “Soramakase,” built around a rolling groove, pulsating bass, and muffled vocals, layered with dystopian pads that heighten tension, while the breakdown introduces rising jazzy chords.

Rising Manchester-based artist AYDN has a new EP in the works. The 4-track digital project, titled Warped Dimensions, will be released via NLI’s ADHESIVE on 18th December.

Whilst discovering his passion for the underground, AYDN would regularly attend shows in his adopted Northwestern city hosted by leading UK techno collectives like HOL and the Blasha and Allat-fronted Meat Free. It was at these parties a young AYDN would develop a love for hypnotising synth, intense atmospheres, and euphoric melodies - promising to himself that he would one day become more than just a face in the crowd.

Warped Dimensions from the EP marks a bold statement from AYDN, diving deep into the darker, more cerebral corners of techno. The EP explores the tension between structure and chaos, using pulsating low-end frequencies, evolving textures, and hypnotic rhythms to craft an immersive, cinematic experience.

JXJ is shaping a hard techno profile built on precision, force and unfiltered impact.
Born in Merseyside, JXJ has constructed a sonic identity through exacting sound design, heavy kicks and dominant basslines that cut through club systems with intent. His tracks operate at the meeting point of industrial aggression and hypnotic propulsion, a combination that has drawn support from Fatima Hajji, Juliet Fox, Nineted, Novah, Lex Ledu and Gallo. That momentum runs parallel to a large vault of unreleased work planned for 2026, signalling a producer preparing for a wider push onto global stages.
