Indira Paganotto’s ARTCORE Imprint Welcomes French Artist La Kajofol With Her ‘Darkly Yours’ EP.

Released on 7th September, the second release on Indira’s newly launched label project welcomes listeners to one of techno’s most exciting new talents...

Montagne Noire’s La Kajofol has impacted the underground techno scene with her intriguingly unique sonics since 2019. The NŸX Records label boss, known for her enchanting “Mystical Techno” sound predominantly featuring her vocals, continues to garner attention from the masses as she prepares for her most significant release to date -courtesy of renowned Spanish psy-trance queen Indira Paganotto and her ARTCORE label. 

‘Darkly Yours’ encapsulates La Kajofol’s musical identity in its purest form, beginning with ‘The Afterlife’, which builds around celestial vocals with a firm psytrance-influenced agenda of gritty musicality and racy, driving grooves to carve out an energetic peak-time stomper. 

‘Virgin Poison’ rounds off the release with increased weight compared to its predecessor. Harder and darker grooves steer the track as it careers into a bank of raucous harmonics. Blistering bass notes, rippling synth riffs, offbeat siren shots and sketchy fills -the track has everything at pace, resulting in a charmingly different result, destined to turn heads and steal ears on the dancefloor.

Released on 26th October, ‘Dissociaxion’ fuses Interactive Noise’s signature progressive and psy-trance vibe with ARCTORE’s gritty, sinister sonics across two huge peak-time cuts…

Hugo Venegas, also known as Interactive Noise, has been pushing the boundaries of electronic music since 2007, significantly impacting the global progressive trance scene through several influential studio albums and continuous performances at renowned festivals and club spaces. Bringing his seamless blend of electronic sounds, including progressive house, techno, and minimal elements, Interactive Noise is primed to debut on Indira Paganotto’s increasingly popular ARTCORE imprint this October with an impressive two-track release titled ‘Dissociaxion’.

‘The Punisher’ feat. Lil Jorck quickly dives into the release’s flow of driving grooves and riveting musicality. A combination of thick kicks, potent bass notes and fizzing percussive energy lead the way through a series of climatic peaks and atmospheric troughs, all characterised by an ominous vocal topliner.

The second of two tracks with a cinematic entrance, is ‘Where Is My Mind’. It’s an impressive scene-setting record with a vast array of attention-grabbing elements. Its onslaught of highoctane minimalist psytrance beats provides the perfect platform for a continually warping arrangement of rave-inspired instruments and broken robotic vocals to carve out a special mainstage weapon.

Pepticides mixes the core elements of Peaktime Techno with the psychedelic elements of Psytrance. This track is my take on psytechno, distinct from the approach Zenon Records typically explores. With "Pepticide", I aim to carve out a niche within the genre by integrating the high energy and dynamic rhythms of techno with the psychedelic twists and immersive soundscapes characteristic of psytrance.
