On the smoother side of techno
Selection by Lau H

Smooth Techno

The third chapter in discjockeymatt’s saga, vol.3 is a seismic leap forward—both in ambition and execution. Building on the raw energy of the previous volumes, this release dives deeper into elemental techno, where sound becomes substance and rhythm becomes ritual.

Compared to its predecessors, vol.3 is a masterclass in techno evolution. The mix is tighter, the transitions sharper, and the sound design more immersive. It’s not just another installment—it’s a statement. Discjockeymatt has leveled up, and the results are undeniable.

Whether you're deep in the underground or just discovering the pulse of techno, vol.3 is a journey worth taking—raw, refined, and relentlessly forward-moving.

Belgian warrior Sieg Motmans, aka Siege, brings four complete weapons to Alan Fitzpatrick’s
trailblazing label We Are The Brave. No excuses not to move to this one, with each track having
its own distinct dance floor appeal!
Straight out of the barrel with ‘Play It’, Siege brings you a fierce stomper, comprised of chunky,
grooving drums, subtle vocal flickers, building synths and some mental synths after the drop.
‘Galaxy’ is a perfectly formed progressive roller with all the traits of a classic terrace weapon.
Steering from being a cheeky groover into a huge drop with a soulful vocal chop that will switch
up your set in seconds. ‘That’s It’ is built from its fat chord structure with accompanying drums
and some synths from outer space. The record closes with ‘The Riff’, a bluesy roller with an
earworm of a riff over the top and some trippy vocal slices.

Mistrix - City Nights

Waiting is sort of an interim state that exists because of a future occurrence. But what kind of feelings are triggered if you realize that the anticipated event fails to occur? “I’m waiting for nothing.” Do you feel frustrated? Does the waiting period become a farce? Was it all for nothing?
“Waiting”, the latest track by melodic techno artist R.EK, addresses this ambiguous, hard to define emotional state. The staggering, driving bass line represents frustration; the catchy chord progression depicts despair. And every now and then, hope still shimmers through. 
In this instance, all the waiting wasn’t in vain. It was the seed for an infectious track that will resonate in your ears for a while.

About KNOTEN
Under the umbrella of KNOTEN, R.EK is currently developing a new live performance concept that attempts to reinvent the communication between the artist and the audience by adding innovative visuals to the show. The new track will be released under KnotenMusic, which was launched as part of the KNOTEN project.

Premiere: Frankyeffe, A.S.H - Jealousy [Riot]

Markantonios label AnalyticTrail presents a stunning new techno EP from Omis (Italy) whose music has been supported on Radio 1 by the iconic Charlotte de Witte.

Omis (Italy) recently dropped a track on one of AnalyticTrails mixed artist LPs, but this time he is back with three original tracks, and a solo EP of his own.

Royal Techno opens the release with a hypnotic blend of looped vocals and hard-hitting percussion that pays homage to the in your face '90s style.

Lifting the intensity even further, Acid Dream has punishing rhythms fulled by a frantic acid-line.

Last on the EP is For The Beat which has a stripped back dystopian style that's got mechanical rhythms and a pounding low end.

What does techno look like in its purest form? Clear in its structure. Credible in its message. With an insistent beat in the background. With its heart in the right place. And its melody in the tips of the never-ending goosebumps.Those who know, are aware of that. Those who can, do it. At Complexed Records they've only been doing just that since 2014. But they do it with a sound that embodies such determination that it could just as well come from the good old days in the beginning. That's primarily down to label boss Drumcomplex, who in this short period and with very few artists has established a reputation that has projected virtually every new release into the playlists of the major players. And in the process he and his label have themselves grown to become a major force.It's as if Complexed Records hit the nerve of an age which was not openly calling out for a powerful breath of techno past, yet still seems relieved to hear it. Or rather, to absorb it. Who would have thought a few years ago that once again a new techno label would be established and experience such a meteoric rise. But let's leave the past in peace. Let's look to the future. A glittering future with packed dance floors, on which visionaries once again celebrate music as a unifying element as they dance together into the early hours, with gratified smiles on their faces. And the sound they're dancing to? Complexed Records. Modern Future Techno.
