Sound of Neo-Saitama City Vol.1

R-9 - We Are The Arcade Wanderers

One of our peak time artists had some serious accident and could not perform at our third party. So I was flexing my brain and options to find someone who could take that time and blow people's brains out. One of my friends came up to me on the night and she said, "What the fuck man?" that's how good he was. Thanks @sciamamusic you delivered perfectly.

Another Barker masterclass.

Sam Barker asks more from techno. The artist known simply as Barker is one of electronic music's most consistently conscientious and curious producers, challenging listeners to question the norms we accept about our shared culture—whether it's the music that fills the room, the process behind it, or the purpose of the space itself.

British-born yet based in Berlin since 2007, Barker forged a connection to many of the city's leading institutions, including Ostgut Ton, and over the course of a long and fruitful relationship, he carved out one of the more singular paths on the club and label's roster.

Not one for orthodoxy, Barker challenged four-to-the-floor techno framework in favor of melodic experimentation. By decentering or completely stripping away the typical trappings of kick drums and claps, his productions are both light and immersive, buoyant in low-end presence and shimmering in weightless space.

Six years after Utility, his sophomore album Stochastic Drift arrives this month. Shaped by pandemic-driven reinvention, it burrows deeper into harmonic twists and freeform drift. "At some point I became conscious of the process," he wrote of his latest album. "The only thing you can do is embrace the uncertainty and see every change as a potential positive.”

Consider his RA Podcast another sequel. Like his much-beloved 2019 mix for FACT, it's a collage of live recordings and a fitting expression of the artist's own internal spring. RA.982 radiates wide-eyed optimism: percussion cloaked in foggy, swirling pads and trance-like chords, neatly synched in synthetic glimmers. 

All in all, it's an hour of music crafted for contemplation, collective euphoria, or heads-down epiphany—or for that matter, any moment, really, its emotive depth seemingly endless.

RA.982 Barker

Damos la bienvenida a @torn170 a nuestra serie de podcast con una sesión de una hora repleta de ritmos sincopados meticulosamente construidos a BPMs frenéticos. Desde grooves mentales profundos hasta patrones agresivos y cargados de energía, este mix nos lleva lejos de nuestro sonido habitual y precisamente por eso nos encanta.

Torn es ampliamente reconocido como uno de los mejores productores de la escena halftime y una figura clave en la evolución de sellos como samuraimusic y Horo en los últimos años. Más allá de estos sellos icónicos, sigue ampliando sus límites sonoros a través de su propio sello o en otros  como 47.

LASTER MIX #023 · BEN KLOCK

Continuing the trajectory set by last year’s EPs and experimental long-player, Reeko returns to Samurai Music to deliver an expansive album that goes further into his experimental practice at the intersection of deep techno, drum & bass and electronica.

On Cryptophony, Rico continues this thread of exploration and uses the concept of inaudible or encrypted sounds as an inspirational jump-oﬀ point for an incredibly detailed, nuanced body of work. When meditative minimalism and insistent repetition are key compositional tools, the sound ﬁeld is opened up for subtlety in the spaces between notes, and that's precisely the experience Rico has crafted across seven extended pieces.

"Crytophony explores how sound can conceal, suggest or reveal information in a symbolic, sensory or ritualistic way," Rico explains. "I found it interesting as a first step to investigate further. There are no hidden messages in the music, but there are strange voices that, after the final process, sound transformed."

Cryptophony is released on 2xLP and Digital on 31.10.2025
Black, Marbled or Collector's Special Edition (of 50) Vinyl options
