Michael Mayer became obsessed with Erik Luebs, an American producer based in Osaka, after stumbling upon his independently released music on Bandcamp. Luebs’ talent for creating high-energy, minimalist acid techno with impeccable, futuristic sound design swiftly earned him a regular place in Mayer’s sets. It was only a matter of time before Luebs made his debut on Kompakt’s Speicher series with this highly versatile EP. ‘Riding the Blade’ opens the four-track EP, showcasing Luebs’ signature punchy psychedelia. ‘Scarlet Viscera’ features a sleek, minimal groove that is reminiscent of the genre’s heyday in the 2000s. ‘Transform Into Glass’ emanates blissful Detroit vibes, and the EP closes with a real bang: ‘Sucked Through Tube’ creates a frenzy on the dance floor without the need for a single kick drum. If you like your techno sexy and forward-thinking, there’s no way around the man from Osaka. Play it loud!

Berlin’s Tal Fussman returns to Rekids with the ‘Walking on Mars’ EP, releasing 7th November 2025. It follows the Survival Tactics boss’ recent album on Binh’s Time Passages, as well as his ‘Definition’ (2024) and ‘I Feel’ (2025) EPs on Rekids, with Fussman’s fresh spin on classic House and Techno winning support from the likes of Raresh, Cromby, DVS1, Saoirse, Carista, Honey Dijon, and many more.

The ‘Walking on Mars’ EP opens with ‘Crystallized’, a cavernous cut exclusive to 12”, where Tal Fussman pares back his signature percussive style in favor of a rolling groove set against a deep, atmospheric backdrop. ‘Who’s Who?’ follows, its wild sequences and skewed drumlines colliding in restless motion, before giving way to ‘Sea of Blue’, a pure rhythmic trip infused with dub textures and a hypnotic, evocative vocal sample.

The title track, ‘Walking on Mars’, drives forward on hard-hitting drums that gradually unfold into a soulful house melody, setting the stage for ‘Knowledge_Machine’, a razor-sharp electro finale of snaking synths and an apt robotic vocal. Fussman’s versatility shines throughout, with the EP already winning support from Antal, Rene Wise, Marcel Dettmann, and Fred P.

Founded in 2006, Radio Slave’s Rekids has since launched the Techno-focused Rekids Special Projects in 2017 and its latest sublabel, REK’D, in 2024. With Matt Edwards as the sole A&R, Rekids has been instrumental in developing emerging artists and remains a trusted home for House and adjacent sounds, recently featuring names such as Hilit Kolet, Frankey & Sandrino, Mathias Kaden, Huxley, and many more.

Second edition of "Chutes" series with a more electro touch this time. Those demos were very early work of me from like 7 years ago, trying to match a certain sound from my inspirations regarding sound design. No need to give them as much light as my main releases, hope some people will find their way in a selection of demos used as my sound laboratory I don't plan to play that much. But it's out !

03. Jules Wells - Loser - preview

Taken from Sonson’s debut EP on Lossless, "What I Need" showcases the Munich-based producer’s more experimental and rhythmically fractured approach to contemporary club music. Built on broken drum structures and syncopated swing, the track drifts between patterns with an off-kilter momentum that feels vibrant and unpredictable. A sparse palette, sharpened by a driving, repetitive vocal sample, creates a hypnotic tension that pushes beyond standard 4/4 frameworks while still locking dancers firmly into its pulse .

While "Remnant" leans into functional, reductionist house, "What I Need" emerges as the EP’s bold counterpoint; a precise yet adventurous cut that highlights Sonson’s instinctive feel for groove, space and rhythmic exploration, marking a strong first appearance on the Lossless roster.

All music written, produced, arranged and performed by Sonson (Michael Heumann).
Mastered by Mathias Schober.
Design by David Kochs. 

EP Supported by Frankey & Sandrino

Release date: December 5, 2025

PREMIERE: Sonson - What I Need (Original Mix) [Lossless]

The journey of past years trying to figure out what it actually is to be in the place in which I am.

The album is a story of the peaks and valleys of the past two years, and the common theme that we have to let go of something along the way, even if I think it is *almost* perfect.

In a way too - it's about being able to move on. Finding that closure which isn't an end, but just part of where I go when I stop thinking so hard.

Hope you enjoy it, or at least get some motivation out of it.
