Rafael Marín, best known as Rapha Mundi is back on Buenobueno Discos with a solid 6 track EP titled Bonanza EP. The super prolific, hard working hero from the small town of Murchante, in Spain, keeps pushing boundaries on his personal journey through music.

Munich based musician, sound collector and artist Schegg (aka “Scaled Chord Harmony & Electronic Groove Grounds”) crawls through the wormhole for his third outing on clipp.art. A minute between stints, (his last extended player release on clipp.art came out in 2019) but where “Dream Emulator” drifted into corners of detroit electro, groove-heavy house, full frontal breakbeat, aquatic acid and UK rave, “Sonic Ritual” is a trio of tracks that finds the Munich based musician delving into new 4D angles inside the tesseract. It’s a space where he builds on his enthusiasm for vintage-sound tracks, tribal rhythms, and silky chords, albeit all wrapped up in a raw housey music kinda way. Oh, and he adds some borderline Baltimore breakbeat and early morning ambience into the mix.

It’s interesting to think about the concept of a “Sonic Ritual” and not get trapped in the boring utilitarian idea of a customary practice or soul-sucking routine of everyday existence. There can also be pleasure in repetition. The 4/4 hypnotic loop of club music is a good place to start. And I think most people reading this would have surrendered to the habits of a regular dancefloor visit at some point in their life.

But let’s talk about the music: If I had to imagine a scenario where you would be correct in throwing on “Memory Loop” then it wouldn’t be while drinking coffee at 7a.m, or on the treadmill at the gym. I’d opt instead to blaze a fat one and watch spider web shadows through my window on a spring afternoon.

“Shamanic Dance” won’t summon an ancient curse, although it sounds really good if you watch the jungle scenes in Raiders of the Lost Arc at half speed with the sound muted and play this over the top instead.

Finally, title track “Sonic Ritual” evokes less of a literal ritual and more like an everyday ceremony where you listen to heaps of Orbital and then remember it’s the year 2025. Its good stuff, man.

On his first release with us back in May 2019, Schegg said ”The most important thing is to make human-like music for the heart and soul. There should be some healing sound at the dancefloor, something to dream about and to forget all your troubles.” Many moons later, in a world where everything has changed, it’s comforting to find some habits stay the same.

Grab your the first single NEON from JOIA's upcoming EP "Fragments" today! Full release coming soon on 25th April.

JOIA’s new EP is raw, instinctive, and stripped to its core. Moving between dark club grooves, broken beats, and flashes of rave energy, each track is direct yet unpredictable. There’s no excess—just rhythm, mood, and movement. Beats hit where they need to, melodies drift in and out, and everything serves the moment. It’s music that feels personal but built for the floor.
Argentine producer and Rummel label founder Djolee's remix of Urutau rounds off the EP with a bang.

PREMIERE : Matija - Echoes of Cool (MiRET Remix) [MuMa]

💭 A Master of Witches is both dangerous and useful. With one at your side, you gain access to immense power, dark knowledge and unpredictable forces. They can shift the outcome of any battle with a single spell. But their strength comes at a price. If a Master of Witches stands against you, only those with strong defenses and skilled magicians have a chance of survival. Handle with care, as their loyalty brings great strength but their fury can bring your absolute ruin.

🎵 With Master of Witches, Kuako delivers a deep diving downtempo project, full of epic harmonies, laid back basslines, and a perfectly fitting vocal mantra. Somehow, the track feels familiar, as if it had just been waiting to be brought to life by Kuako. This is exactly how we like it magical, mystical and full of atmosphere. Enjoy the ride!

Magician On Duty, the globally revered electronic label, proudly presents the latest EP from cinematic electronic artist Ha:arp (@haarplife): Goodbye My Love. A deeply personal and elegantly crafted journey, this four-track release marks a significant evolution in Ha:arp’s sonic storytelling — a project that blurs the line between music and memory.

A Cinematic Farewell — Music for the Mind and Heart

With a background in film scoring and a decade of refining his sound from Bogotá to Brooklyn to Mexico City, Ha:arp brings an unmistakable emotional depth to every track he touches. On Goodbye My Love, he delivers an EP rooted in the label’s signature downtempo and organic house aesthetic — but elevated through lush arrangements, raw vulnerability, and minimalist precision.

In “Goodbye My Love”, Ha.arp delivers a melancholic yet warm narrative through deep, melodic electronica — a signature ethos of the Magician On Duty label. Clocking in at just over seven minutes, the piece unfolds with grace and emotional restraint, capturing a moment of parting, not with melodrama, but with mature introspection.

The opening sets the mood: airy textures float above a gently pulsing low-end, creating a sense of suspension — like the final breath before a goodbye. The production is rich but never overdone. Spacious pads and delicate arpeggios carry the listener into an immersive ambient groove, where every detail feels intentional.

A standout quality is its subtle harmonic tension: minor-chord progressions paired with shimmering melodic layers evoke longing, but never despair. There's a cinematic quality to the phrasing — like scenes playing out in slow motion. This isn’t a track aimed at peak-time dance floors, but rather a soundtrack for reflective moments, sunrise sets, or long solo drives.

The mix is pristine. Every frequency is given its own space to breathe — from the crisp highs of the arps to the rounded, emotive basslines. The stereo imaging is lush, giving a wide, panoramic sense of depth that invites headphones or high-fidelity systems.

What stands out most, though, is the emotional intelligence of the track. Ha.arp doesn’t force the sentiment; instead, the farewell is whispered. There’s beauty in its restraint — and power in its vulnerability.

Ha.arp (@haarplife) returns with “Love is Broken,” a deep and emotionally intricate track that feels both meditative and cinematic — the kind of piece that doesn’t just play in the background but quietly insists on being felt. From the first moments, the atmosphere is rich with sonic intention: soft ambient textures set a moody foundation, while minimal percussion pulses like a distant heartbeat.

The composition unfolds with patience. Rather than chasing a traditional drop or hook, Ha.arp crafts a story in slow motion. Synths swell and decay like flickers of memory, while melancholic chord progressions evoke a sense of longing — fitting given the track’s title. The production is spacious, letting every element breathe. This isn’t a track designed to ignite a dance floor, but to linger in the early hours or in moments of introspection.

Where the track truly excels is in its subtlety. Tiny melodic inflections , and delicate percussive accents are placed with care, suggesting a producer with a cinematic sensibility. There’s a strong modular or analog character to the synth tones — warm, tactile, and a bit ghostly — adding a human imperfection that balances the track’s digital polish.

In the context of the Magician On Duty aesthetic, “Love is Broken” is a perfect fit — a piece of emotionally intelligent downtempo music that resonates well beyond its runtime. It’s understated but memorable, the kind of track that finds its home not just in mixes but in the hearts of those attuned to subtle storytelling through sound.

Out exclusively on Beatport & Spotify August 15th 2025
