Anthea - Distraction( Subb-an 5am Remix)

Pre order here: http://www.delsinrecords.com/release.php?idxRelease=3634

Thirteen years ago the Nurture label released upekah, the one and only single to come under the son.sine alias. It’s an alias of a New Zealander who released only a select few EPs under different monikers, and one that sounds as good today as it did back then given all its dub infused techno glory. It’s always been hard to come buy but now Delsin are remastering and rereleasing it into the world once more.

First up is the title track, a double deep track of spacious, gently pulsing dub that initially revels in blissfully ambient swirls before growing a touch more edgy and metallic in the latter half thanks to some panning steel stabs.

On the flip, 'karuna' is just as deep and cavernous. Filling the huge chambers of echo and reverb are more ambient patterns, subtle beams of light and an ever churning, grainy dub undercurrent. Lastly, 'Mudita' is more propulsive and up right, with hunched drums rotating below and rueful ambient drones up top. Classy business indeed from the New Zealander.

Always a welcome face back at Octopus Headquarters, one of the most pioneering studio wizards we know and an integral part of modern European Techno knife edge, Ambivalent returns with a surgically crafted two tracker.  Engineered to crunch the most forgiving sound systems around. Christian Smith needs no fancy intros, he's broken genre moulds for decades and is well know for some of the most danceable smashes each year. Another major figure in dance music joins the catalogue and rounds off this impeccably engineered and super high tech funk ep, crafted by the hands of two serious heads.

Octopus Recordings unveils Clouds, the latest release from left-field electronic visionaries Sian & Waltervelt, featuring the evocative and soul-stirring vocals of David Lesal. This standout track is a masterclass in peak-time production, surging with raw rave energy and an innovative blend of T echno and Indie sensibilities. Fusing intricate synth layers with driving basslines and immersive atmospheric vocals, Clouds delivers unrelenting intensity and emotional depth, showcasing the duos ability to push boundaries in contemporary electronic music. Taking the release even further, Mala Ika delivers a stunning remix, injecting the track with dramatic synth arpeggios, bold builds, and a sonic architecture that demands attention on the dancefloor. This reimagining amplifies the tracks emotive core, cementing its place as a peak-time anthem.

The first single from Sian’s upcoming album, Chaos, sees Sian and Bobby Nourmand release their collaboration, "The Language" - a bold plunge into the visceral edges of indie dance. Anchored by a quaking bassline and crystalline synth stabs, the track pulses with raw, almost primal energy, tailor-made for sweat-soaked basement club dancefloors. Its ferocious rhythm and subtle textural shifts create an immersive narrative, while the lethal vocal evokes voodoo-like incantations. A standout track that demands attention from selectors aiming to bridge gritty techno with dancefloor hypnosis.

The third single from Sian’s album Chaos, Sian & Dark Heart’s “Blacklight” is a relentless plunge into the void, where Sian’s raw, industrial techno edge collides with Dark Heart’s pristine, cinematic soundscapes. David LeSal’s spectral vocals—equal parts ethereal and visceral—pierce the track’s churning, subterranean basslines like a solitary flare in a dystopian rave. The result is a primal, almost feral energy, precision-engineered for the nocturnal pulse of sweat-drenched dancefloors.

Blacklight

Sian, Oysher, and Hiroko Yamamura’s “Champagne”, the fourth single from Sian’s Chaos album, is a formidable techno excursion that channels the genre’s raw intensity with surgical precision.
This collaboration fuses Sian’s industrial-leaning production with Oysher’s intricate sonic layering and Yamamura’s deep-rooted Chicago house influence, resulting in a track that is both cerebral and commanding.
“Champagne” drives forward with a pulverizing bassline and stark, distorted synths, evoking the atmosphere of late-’90s rave culture. A subtle infusion of acid house elements adds a layer of historical depth, grounding the track’s futuristic edge.
The trio’s embrace of controlled disorder—marked by glitchy textures and rhythmic unpredictability—gives the track a haunting, immersive vibe.
