Drops & Volts @ Radio Vilnius / 25 April 2024 [S02E08]

Twin Dive is a rock’n’roll band from Vilnius with charisma at their forefront, consisting of Eglė (drums), Robertas (vocals and bass), and Jonathan (guitar). Despite having formed just a year ago, they have already made a name in Lithuania's alternative scene. After debuting at the “Novus” festival, they have performed at “Loftas Fest”', supported BA. in Juoda Palanga, and wrapped up the winter season with a bang at “Rokodiskoteka”. In early October 2024, the trio is set to release their debut album, but the waiting must be justified, which is why...

… with an intention to bridge rock and club scenes, band’s two singles “Vorele” and “Materija” got a dancefloor friendly adaptation by Jaroška, 5ZYL and Dannie Fade - and just how well that worked out.

PREMIERE⚡️TWIN DIVE - Materija (Dannie Fade Remix) [Partyzanai Pop]

XTCLVR, the brainchild of Ukrainian sound artist and audio producer Artem Diachenko from Buchan near Kyiv, is set to release a new album titled 'INVERSE' on Standard Deviation. XTCLVR cinematic soundscapes have been featured in Standard Deviation’s audiovisual project 'Ridne' showcased at the CTM Festival in Berlin, ICA London and La Gaîté Lyrique in Paris. Known for his deep involvement in Kyiv's underground music scene, Artem is also a key member of the Pep Gaffe and Ejekt collectives, representing a fresh wave of Ukrainian independent artists dedicated to alternative and experimental sounds.

XTCLVR's music is characterized by deep, enveloping ambient passages and sharp synthesizer elements that often transform into hip-hop and dub bass lines. The name XTCLVR (ecstasy lover), created in 2019, humorously echoes with the techno culture.

'INVERSE' unveils a different facet of XTCLVR’s sound, with heavier and more aggressive tones. The traditional genres dissolve, and a grotesque tone draws the listener into a surreal, chimeric journeyThe album blends rich synthesizers and post-club polyrhythms with euphoric, upbeat elements, maintaining his distinctive style. Written throughout 2022-2023, the tracks on 'INVERSE' reflect a time of emotional instability and a dream-like state: is this all for real? The music features liquid sonic textures that escalate into distorted synths, fractured noisescapes, and eerie melodies. A standout track, 'FEEL ME', poses a bold inner dialogue, questioning reality itself.

'INVERSE' will be released on Standard Deviation on the 12th of July 2024.

More Rice is pleased to announce their first digital only release and a first from MiNcho, a collaborative project between Vietnam residents Mishouju and Sancho.

A stripped down EP, the mood and tone for the opening track Poeben is set by the vocals which also effortlessly glues all the other elements together. MiNcho are able to create depth through the clever use of their limited instruments, whereby the elements are complimenting each other well. For the second track, Some Sounds, as the title suggests, has a minimalistic and a dubby feel accompanied by a groovy key bassline made for the dancefloor.

This EP comes with a remix of Poeben by DOTT. A prime time punchy banger, that will sure make you want to shake your head and move your body as soon as you press play.

To transcend spatial boundaries. Thoughts and movements orchestrated from afar. Ideas transmitted into the beyond. "Televisions," a multifaceted release by Break Mode, conveys these concepts through five interconnected yet distinct tracks. Each piece embarks on its own unique journey while maintaining a cohesive bond with the others. From the uptempo title track to the trip hop vibes of “Ames Window” both held together by dubbed out delays and pulsating samples reaching into the unknown. Tune in as Break Mode broadcasts some of his most accomplished work to date with "Televisions."

PMG Tanz Digital presents a new split release of our notable producer 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐣𝐚 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐩𝐞 joining the upcoming creative force of 𝐋𝐣𝐮𝐛𝐞𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐤𝐚 𝐋.𝐎.𝐕.𝐃, welcomed with its first release on the label.

Andreja Salpe is known for his creativity and unique sound in making electronic music that echoes the modern dancefloor groove. His track ‘𝐈𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐝’ leads us to a realm of groovy techno bits electrified with guitar riffs and tribal motions.

L.O.V.D is the imminent producer who doesn’t hesitate to play live and when performing brings the best to the audience. Active for some time, he gradually builds his distinctive sound. His track ‘𝐇𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬’ is a proper downtempo techno tune with a generic voice overflowing the rhythm and filling the atmosphere.

We are happy this release has remixes by two young and talented producers. ‘Ice Cold’ remix by 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧 drives us to a hypnotic atmosphere of industrial underground techno. He is one of the producers modelling the emerging modern Mexican electronic music.

‘Human Conditions’ remix by the uprising Lithuanian producer 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐬𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 reveals the song in a more minimalistic way with an increased dynamic that creates a danceable ambience.

PREMIERE⚡️l.o.v.d - Human Condition (thelastsunday Remix) [PMG Tanz Digital]

When Aljoscha's father placed cassettes of jungle, ambient and drum'n'bass in the hands of his seven-year-old son, he had no idea that he had just passed on to him the soundtrack of his life.

This heritage of multiple textures has been transformed into multiple aliases, including AJO, a character who transcends the boundaries of genres and time.

Signed to labels such as Electric Shapes and Mana Abundance, AJO invokes tribal elements and inter-astral electronic sounds. A primitive, almost animal quest dances between the German producer's synthesizers.

His new album, ‘God Is A Single Infinite Painting That Has No Frame’, adds to his psychedelic ambient and EBM-tinged electrooid explorations. Four remixes by YADÜ, La Serpiente, HyperLili and Théo Muller add an even more contemplative dimension to this opus, released on Ethos Records.

Klex blobbing his first solo EP on Strictly Strictly, pushing forward with his virtually self-titled "Klextasy EP". Entangling techy trance strikers with dreamily warm temperament, Klex offers three strikingly quirky productions on side A, blending surprisingly seamlessly from bouncy to anthemic passages. Accompanied by a strong team of remixers, with Viikatory, Lakehead, and DJ Normal 4 pressing a psy-techy stamp on side B. Digital Bonus: Two extra Remixes from Urte and once again Normal 4. A release like a steamy open-air summer night by the lake.

Label founder, DJ and producer Birds has rallied up a battalion of her favourite music producers to create their own versions of some of the tracks from her debut album 'Home.' Flexing from Electro, to Bass, to Drum & Bass, to Techno, to Experimental, this remix extended EP is a release that knows no bounds in terms of genre, just as she likes it.

Borusiade is an experimental Berlin (via Bucharest) based producer known for their distinctive dark productions. For this remix of ‘Freedom Is A State Of Mind’ they've accelerated the pace to bring you an insane drum & bass inspired mixture of Amen breaks, sped up vocals and guitar. These are things you would not usually find together yet they somehow manage to work together perfectly.

All tracks were produced and mixed by the listed artists. Artwork by Johana Pejic and mastering by Sam Berdah.

PREMIERE⚡️Innerworld - Stellar Wanderers [Mana Abundance]

Michele Mininni's debut album 'Pop Archetypes' from back in May proved to be a left-of-centre favourite all summer long. Its effortless blend of jazz, broken beats and world music wooed both DJs and dancers alike, which is why Hell Yeah Recordings now exacts a first digital package from it. Standout single 'Urban Voodoo' features in original form next to two fresh reworks from Keita Sano, one of which is Bandcamp only.

'Urban Voodoo' lives up to its name with an intoxicating blend of mystic melodies, busy rhythms and exotic strings. It's dense yet loose and grows ever more wild as a patchwork of vocals, chants and cries emerges from the mix next to rousing chords.

Mister Saturday Night, Let’s Play House and 1080P associate Keita Sano hails from Okayama, Japan. He has a sound that defines easy categorisation as it blends club grooves, trippy experimentalism and global influences. His Good Luck remix strips things back to a deep techno rhythm and details it with delicate melodic refrains before rebuilding with the sound cracking whips, tribal percussion and lashings of black magic. The Urban Smell Remix is a wild nine-minute dance around the campfire with iconic synth samples, tons of reverb and percolating drum funk that will keep you guessing.

Trained as an academic psychologist and former lecturer at the University of Sydney, Andy Rantzen has been involved with the Sydney underground music scene since the early days of Pelican Daughters, recording and releasing industrial-ambient soundscapes and tape experiments. Rantzen’s work has gained further recognition in recent years thanks to labels like Kashual Plastik and Efficient Space. He is now teaming up with Paesaggi Records for a special Halloween release on a 7" record with two original tunes. It comes with a screen-printed cover art courtesy of Fieldink Studio.

Was the lesson intended?
It hangs like mist in the air
And now the throne is upended
And the lesson is the son and the heir

Was the lesson intended?
It resonates in the sky
A shockwave in the heavens
Visible to the naked eye

Was the lesson intended?

Was the lesson intended?
It has soaked into the ground
It is felt in every movement
And is audible in every sound

Was the lesson intended?
It cannot be denied
It rings loud like thunder
Leaving our poets tongue-tied

Was the lesson intended?

Following the introspective depths of Codonopsis and the provocative excursions of Rumex, we are proud to introduce Orbea - our third Various Artist release. This 15-track compilation continues our exploration of genre-melting sound. Once again, we’ve gathered a selection of artists from across the globe, weaving together their distinct styles into a sonic tapestry that defies easy categorisation.

Musically, Orbea is genre-fluid: from atmospheric ambient, classical, and textured noise to fractured breaks, raw electro and wave. This release carries a pulse between inertia and momentum, from the stillness of introspection to the kinetic energy that propels us outward. It’s an ode to contrast, a meditation on tension and release, and above all, a celebration of that which cannot be explained.

The creation of Orbea was as much about collaboration as it was about the music itself. Over the past year, we’ve been blessed to work with a multitude of artists and friends, each bringing their own unique perspectives and talents. Together, we’ve forged a collection that is deeply personal yet universal, reflecting the struggles and triumphs of another relentless year. To everyone involved—the producers, sound designers, mastering engineers, visual artists, and the community around us—we extend our gratitude in a testament to growth, resilience, and connection.

True to our vision, Orbea showcases sound from under the radar, giving space to the unconventional and experimental - showcasing the sonic landscapes less traveled. You can stream Orbea on Soundcloud, get your digital download on Bandcamp, and share the experience with those who appreciate music that challenges and inspires. Thank you for your support, we hope you dive into this compilation with the same curiosity and openness with which it was created.

PREMIERE⚡️Haxxa - Neurasthenia [Intersub]

Following up on the 2024 released remix album You Are Dreaming! Random Numbers continues its presentation of La Serpiente’s immersive output with Elaphe Dione: The first full-length album of the multifaceted producer and a matured imprint of his distinct sound. The record includes five tracks and a digital bonus exhibiting a sonorous marriage between post-industrial esotericism and club-ready psychedelia; A labyrinth of elaborate sound design coiling around sharp rhythms, adorned by fractured voices spawned in obscure worlds. With sensibility towards granular detailing amidst a powerful cascading flow, La Serpiente’s versatile sonic arrangements coalesce into music that always breathes – A drifting current of enchantment materializing as a release that is both ornamental and symbolic in its vision.

Step into the heart of the mysterious Black Forest. Anchored by the deep, primal hum of the didgeridoo, this release blurs the lines between ancient traditions and modern soundscapes.

Featuring transformative remixes by Khey Mysterio, alkemia, and AJO’s enigmatic alter ego Kalocain, each track offers a unique journey through shadowy groves and luminous clearings.

PREMIERE⚡️AJO - Yosshī No Hanashi [Electric Shapes]

We're happy to share a new "Gabben" remixes edition by Gil.Barte, including 3 drone-ambient-experimental - but very fuzzy - remixes from talented artists Catherine Danger (BE), Civilistjävel! (SW), and Warzou (FR).
Last year, we released the LP in a limited edition of 50 copies in compact disc format, featuring 8 original tracks by the French artist. Since, we've fallen a little behind our catalogue schedule but not for a long: we'll start 2025 with this nice gift, followe by much more.

This softly colored and rising frequencies trips are the result of a pleasant in non-club way of reading and highlighting Gil.Barte's percussive tracks and field recording work on Single EP .
The remixes will be available in a very limited edition, in a special pack including the original version (orange insert), the remixes version (blue insert) and a special A3 poster (greyscales).

PREMIERE⚡️AJO - Dream Catcher [Electric Shapes]

With this second EP ever released and his second offering to the Electric Shapes' catalogue, Smogo dove deeper into the areas of the subconscient. With a blend of hard rhythms and dangerous sound designs, gathering both his love for Science-Fiction and organic textures, this new EP reflects more than anything his attraction towards ultramodern mental music, well reflecting the ongoing european enthusiasm for fast paced techno, buzzing soundscapes, ethereal harshnes, citing A Strange Wedding, Raär, Solma, Trois-Quarts Taxi System or Sole Massif as his source of influence. Calling this wave as "psytech", it conjures on the dancefloor a bestial spirit made for dance, self-abandon, communion with the others.

PREMIERE⚡️Smogo - Future Wisdom [Electric Shapes]

The new R.i.O EP by Bocksrucker got it all: deep electronic suspense, detailed rhythmic explorations, and a darkish atmosphere, that elevates heedful listeners into imaginative skies, up there in crescendo heaven, where stars unlock, angels osculate, and light turns dark. It is - as the Berlin based producer puts it - “a balancing act between contemporary, experimental dance music and morphing, diffuse, and obscure sound worlds.” So be conscious, question your values of belief, and get unconscious whilst unlocking the sky with three Bocksrucker tunes, elevated with genuinely synthesized electronic vitality.

PREMIERE⚡️punktò - Aktyvus Pasyvumas

Martin Kuška, producer and former DJ from Czech Republic, writer, lover of vintage synthesizers and various positions of electronic music from direct club lines to heavy melancholic ambient and new age recordings, takes us on a journey into the depths of the ocean of own and shared intimacy, mutual experience, indescribable harmony and finding the balance of life, which can be so fragile.

"Thrills and Maybe Ecstasy" is a panorama of private experiences and everything that can be perceived during them, whether it is the closeness of a person, their breath, or even distant horizons, which can be looked at together and reflected on, that in the world there is always something beautiful that is worth letting enter our souls, so that we feel complete.

Five hard-to-categorize dreamy-progressive tracks are ready to take you to the dance floor at the same time into the depths of thinking about reflection on how deeply we are here for each other and that human kindness may know no bounds when we step out of the superficiality of the surrounding world.

Nešokiai w/Aleksandr L @ Baras Laiptinė / 21 February 2025

With the full album well on its way, ECHT! releases one final single to the world. The aptly titled ‘Boilerbeek’, a nod to both the upcoming album and the Brussels neighbourhoods of Schaarbeek and Molenbeek (the latter infamously labeled a "hellhole" by Trump), condenses everything the band’s music has to offer.

Thumping basslines drive the track from start to finish and act as its thriving heart, while variations keep the energy and dynamic, and the song’s structure shifts fluidly. Hard-hitting from the get-go, the tr ack works is way towards a more laid-back groove before surging back to full power after an atmospheric break. Just when it seems every layer of the band’s sound has been revealed, the song transforms once more, closing with an almost church-like resonance—an unexpected yet fitting conclusion.
