Marcal is back for round two on Dustin Zahn’s Enemy Records with “Cyber Dystopia.” Marcal’s trademark grooves and clever vocal processing make this one of his most exciting and hypnotic records yet. It’s pure class…there isn’t much else to say!

BUT we have to try anyway…
“Cyber Dystopia” starts off with Bionic Jungle, a trippy peak time roller sprinkled with uh, lifeforms or something? We haven’t been able to identify them, which is just proof that Marcal is living on another planet we haven’t been to yet. We’re standing by for the invite.

Moravex’s Paradox picks up where Bionic Jungle left off…chugging along in his signature style. It’s loopy. It’s tooly…but still heavy on the grooves, making it a perfect fit in deep and peak time sets alike.

Nothing About the United States hits a little harder and darker. Dissonant drones and catchy sound design take over, flipping the switch from “party” to “punish.” For fans of his recent track on Enemy, “Never Wrote This.”

Don’t Fear the Three is a classic Marcal percussive workout in heads-down mode. It’s as equally powerful as every other track on the record.

“Cyber Dystopia” is all about the world we are living in right now: artificial intelligence, smart houses, smartphones, self-driving cars, deepfakes, fake news, cybernetic warfare, metaverse, social networks, the internet of things, machine learning, virtual reality...
We are definitely entering a new stage of civilization, the post-modern era.
But,
Are we living an 'apocalypse of self-abdication' already? Or we are, as humans, simply evolving as technology evolves? There will ever be a limit to technology? Will it help as much it can also destruct?

We will find out soon.

For the second chapter of our Elementa Obscura series, the compilation moves with even greater force toward the dancefloor crossing the jagged territories of industrial, electro, and wave, sculpting six tracks where raw mechanics and shadowed atmospheres entwine.

Opening the record, FIUME (the side project of Croatia’s Le Chocolat Noir (Bunker Records, L.I.E.S.)) sets the tone on ‘Factory Wall’: a slab of cold industrial hypnosis where relentless drum patterns march across frozen synth landscapes. Pure machinery in motion.

On A2, Canadian producer Memorex channels a more measured energy. A steady, rolling bassline anchors intricate analog textures, while carefully layered pads expand into widescreen atmospheres. A track that feels both cleanly architected and deeply immersive.

Closing the first side, Uruguay’s Nyxloid: an EBM torchbearer with an unmistakable turntable craft presents ‘Utopicx’: hypnotic patterns, futuristic atmospheres, and metallic soundscapes loaded with tension. A cut built for those who thrive in the darker corners of the floor.

The flip side dives further. Ole Mic Odd, veteran of the US electro (KRI Records, Zement, Source Material, Kraftjerkz), contributes a heavyweight statement: razor-sharp pads, low-end menace, and grooves carved with mechanical precision. Electro at its most uncompromising.

On B2, Spanish artist Thai Lady Boy delivers a fierce industrial techno cut that feels like electricity itself in revolt: distorted acid sparks, convulsive rhythms, and scorched fragments of noise reassembled into a driving, chaotic whole. It’s unstable, dangerous, and wired for intensity.

Finally, RNXRX closes the circle with Altered States: a plunge into body music mutations where rhythm becomes rite. Oscillating between experimentation and sheer physicality, the track reveals the artist’s darkest impulses and his will to transgress.

Six cuts aimed at adventurous DJs and fearless dancers. As always, this is a one-time pressing of 250 copies only.

The artwork seals the vision: a planetary heptagram, historically used as a tool for cosmic contemplation. Representing the seven classical celestial forces, its geometry encodes order, proportion, and spiritual resonance mirroring the record’s sonic invocation.

Stay tuned, soon we’ll announce the official release party of Elementa Obscura Vol. 02, where one of the artists from our first edition will take the stage.
