BCCO Premiere: Fran LF - Amore Tossico [SMILED004]

NECH031 marks the debut EP from Fran LF on NECHTO, presenting five tracks that trace a personal and stylistic journey. Built around raw, percussive momentum, the record moves between minimalistic rhythms, faster grooves, and brighter, more melodic moods—reflecting the artist’s range and growth.

Crafted with guidance from label head Nastia, the release pushed Fran LF to explore new directions and refine his sound. The result is a versatile and dynamic EP that captures both evolution and energy in equal measure.

Originally from Sicily and now based in Amsterdam, Fran LF is a name emerging steadily across Europe’s techno circuit. Known for layered, high-intensity sets and sharp studio output, he brings a decade of experience and a forward-leaning edge to his NECHTO release.

Title: Counting Sheep EP
Label: Märked
Catalog number: MRKD050
Genre: Techno
Format: digital
Release date: 10-10-2025
Art direction: Future Tragedy
Audio mastering: Joe Farr


Tracklist:
01. citóg - Counting Sheep
02. citóg - Feel
03. citóg - Deacair
04. citóg - When The Time Comes

citóg steps into Märked with a razor-edged four-tracker built for low light and locked hips - sleek, physical, and with effortless charm.
Counting Sheep — A fine, charming yet pounding bassline anchors crisp, tough highs while organic drums keep it breathing; the French vocal slips in like heat, tipping the whole thing into a sexy, late-night sway.
Feel — A cleverly morphing bass synth turns the cones inside out, and after the break a contagious three-note motif snaps into the groove, suddenly catchy without losing weight.
Deacair — Pounding low-end meets punchy, energizing hip-hop vocals; glitch-warp details flicker but stay nailed to the grid as percussion drives the pace with relentless intent.
When The Time Comes — Pin-machine grit and arcade-hall bells tangle into a dangerously catchy roll; dynamically composed and tightly balanced, it’s a peak-time surprise weapon with groove to spare.

This four-track VA brings together Lacchesi, HUJUS, SOTO and Comrade Winston for a deepdive into grooves that perfectly blur the lines between pleasure and pressure. 

Kicking off on the A-side, ‘Us and Them’ by Lacchesi, sets the tone with an organic and sexy rhythm, weaving erotic vocals with tension and release into a fast-burning dancefloor experience. Followed by HUJUS ‘Taboo’; lives up to its name. A playful, tribalictic track with a bubbly techno atmosphere and a cheeky vocal that keeps things curious and charged.

Flipping the record to the B-side, ‘Kingdom of Flow’ by SOTO also flips the vibes to a rather dark, pounding and underground approach; yet drawing on minimal and hypnotic influences to lock the dancefloor and your mind in. Last but not least, Comrade Winston’s ‘Interception’ closes things out with abstract break-driven energy. A refreshing take on drops and tempo play that suggest being intercepted mid-movement. 

A seductive blend of pulse, tension and release. Sexyrecs challenges you again to feel your best sexy self, on and off the dancefloor.
