Intriguing electronic duo Pola Women land on Rework’s Exlove label with a fantastic new six track EP.
This duo is made up of Desiree Lune alongside Michel Kuebler, a pair who are split between Berlin and Stuttgart and are inspired by the aesthetics of 80s disco and cinema. Desiree is a singer and writer working on various different projects while studying art at the Kunstakademie Stuttgart. She is used to performing on stage and links here with Michel Kuebler, who is part of electronic bands Rework and She Lies and is adept at crafting synth-based songs and innovative drum machine loops. As Pola Women, the pair create manic rhythms and explore pulsing, immersive sound worlds that combine new wave synthscapes with a signature krautrock beat.
Desiree surprises throughout with haunting and icy vocal lines, they're melancholic and super cold and come in both German and English. That is the case from the off with excellent opener 'Disco Disco.' Her vocals glide over the chattery percussion and tight synth rhythms that are made to make you move. 'Walking Home' is a brooding and downbeat gem, with sombre chords and dejected vocals over more stark drum loops that hark back to the sound of bands like Joy Division and Depeche Mode.
There is a dystopian but absorbing atmosphere to 'Toxic Women' with its frazzled chords and tinny hits, then 'Express' gets a little more playful. There is a hint of disco dazzle to the melodies, while big piano chords lift the mood as synths fire across the mix like shooting stars. The chilly retro chords of 'Never Ever' get you in a trance as rugged arpeggiators make for a tough groove that is softened by more great vocal work from Desiree. An instrumental version of 'Disco Disco' closes down this EP in chugging Kosmische style.

PREMIERE : Pola Women - Disco Disco

We start a new year by welcoming for the first time Mexican duo Damo Mementto teaming up with Anna Forest on Darlyn Vlys' Polaris.

Combining indie dance and electronic rock, ‘Futturo Desconocido’ is nostalgic and, as the name suggests, ‘futuristic’, taking the audience on a deep and cosmic adventure.
The original is a collaboration with producer Anna Forest and has been remixed with two of the monster names in indie dance, Damon Jee and Rigopolar.
Get ready to dance


The track gets off to a strong start with a psychedelic base intertwined with hypnotic synths and distorted guitar riffs merging perfectly with Anna Forest’s poetic and evocative Vocals. Blending romanticism, cosmic imagery, and spiritual empowerment, leading the audience to a mesmerizing drop.

Damon Jee raises the tempo with his version of Futturo Desconocido, keeping the vocals but bringing in the drums and reworking the original into a dark, dancefloor-oriented work, with convoluted arpeggios and echoing vocals in a unique remake of the original.

Born in Mexico but based in New York, Rigopolar's mental remix of Futturo Desconocido will take you on a magical journey through time and space with its shimmering, arpeggiated synths, while the deeper cowbells will have you tapping your feet.

FEINSTOFF PREMIERE: Flight Status - Yocantar (TDWS Remix) [BURNING SYNTHS]

The history of electronic music has been defined by a handful of key synth manufacturers. Iconic brands, like Roland, Yamaha, Sequential Circuits and others, have pushed boundaries and blazed trails. But what gives each synthesizer its own unique sound? What makes one synthesizer sound distinctly different from another? And, what would happen if you only used one synthesizer to create a track? The major players of electronics are the building blocks for this music machine homage. Rack Sessions takes one synth and gives it the spotlight, the instrument is the star. The style pursued corresponds to the unique sound of the chosen piece of equipment. Looming silver screen grandeur for “The D (Roland D-550)”, stargazing elegance with “Bell Hope (Yamaha TX81Z) or gentle rolling nostalgia for “MiR (Korg M1R)”, each work is the product of the tool selected. Beats take a backseat on the flip. Open highways and burgeoning dawns are conjured in “802 Nights (Yamaha TX802)” as the listener is transported to the expertly crafted tones of the 1980s. Koolhaas chooses his elements with subtlety, adding colour to his palette to create deeply evocative works. Attack ships cruise in the spatial “SOB (Oberheim Matrix-6)” before the stalker hunts the sodden streets of “MC202’s Act Like They Don’t Know (Roland MC-202)”. The result is an album that is utterly distinctive. An immersive audio journey that guides the listener deep into the sounds of these very special synthsizers and the broad influences of this new talent.

FEINSTOFF PREMIERE: Jesse Koolhaas - 802 Nights (Yamaha TX802) [BORDELLO A PARIGI]

Originally composed by FK Club featuring Eva Peel for the lyrics, this track is Badknife's reinterpretation- with his betwitching mustache, his short hair and his pimpish look -Badknife is an unusual electronic music producer. He started his career in Paris training musicians on Logic Pro and now on Live Ableton, getting his firts tracks published on HMS records . He now reveals his musical DNA between italo-disco synthetizers & analog house drum machines. We're happy to release this remix on Deviant Disco.

FEINSTOFF PREMIERE: La Notte Di Parigi - Isola (Badknife Remix)

Dina Summer launch into 2025 with the final single, ‘Promise Me’ from their forthcoming album, Girls Gang. Featuring Curses and Joshua Murphy, the captivating new single is released on January 7th via Iptamenos Discos.

‘Promise Me’ is an intense and passionate track that encapsulates the all-encompassing feeling of love. Together, they create a romanticism that deepens the core themes of obsessive love that echoes throughout the Girls Gang album. Beginning as a sorrowful and emotive lament, the track builds emotional intensity, the multi-layers reflecting the complexities of romantic turmoil and desperation, finally erupting in an emotional crescendo.

Dina Summer's new album, Girls Gang, out on January 24th, is the highly anticipated follow-up to 2022’s acclaimed 10-track LP Rimini. Ahead of its release, the group has unveiled seven singles, including the title track, ‘Girls Gang’—an uncompromising, seductive track dedicated to goth icons like Morticia Addams and Elvira; the intense, euphoric-yet-melancholic ‘Schall & Rauch’; the dramatic and theatrical ‘Zombie’; the bold anthem ‘Nothing To Hide’; and the laid-back, pop-infused ‘Hypnotized.’

‘Promise Me’ collaborator, the Berlin-based Curses, fuses New Wave, Post-Punk, and 80s EBM into a genre-defying sonic experience. Known for his haunting vocals and electrifying guitar riffs, Curses channels the dark energy of the 80s with a modern edge.

With releases on labels like Dischi Autunno, Innervisions, Hoga Nord, Throne of Blood, and his own Ombra International label, Curses has become a leading figure in the darkwave scene. His new album Another Heaven (2024) on Italians Do it Better and his genre-defining Next Wave Acid Punx compilations on Eskimo Records cement his reputation as a pioneer of boundary-pushing, cinematic soundscapes.

Joshua Murphy was born and raised in rural Australia, before eventually moving to Berlin and becoming involved in the local scene as a member of various bands (Crime & The City Solution), local promoter and music venue curator released his debut solo EP Lowlands (2022) on aufnahme + wiedergabe.

‘Promise Me’, the epic final single from Dina Summer’s upcoming album Girls Gang, featuring the Curses and Joshua Murphy, is out on January 7th ahead of the album release on January 24th.


FEINSTOFF PREMIERE: Dina Summer - Promise Me feat. Curses (Club Version)

Zillas continue their slow-motion death disco and ACID across the galaxy with a little help from Anatolian Weapons

The Zillas on Acid, with tentacles green, Performed the Should Must in a manner unseen,
With Anatolian Weapons they danced through the night, In Stages of Late Pacifism, a curious sight!

The honorary Zilladelphian’s Remix was grand, As acid-soaked sluggers took over the land,
The Dude of Stratosphear played tunes with such flair,  While glitched-out vibrations hummed through the air!

“The Magic of the State!” they chortled with glee, In their dubby Zone of Its Own, wild and free,
“Drones Go Home!” they bellowed in bass, As new beat bumpers shook the whole place!

Old Sam Berdah mastered the Wall with great care, While Mars Hum signals came from everywhere,
The ultradimensional super-stack grew, As Neu Bau presented this madness anew!


 
Mars Hum Remixes by Zillas on Acid drops March 21, 2025, featuring three reimaginings from their 2024 NEUBAU EP. Honorary Zilladelphian ANATOLIAN WEAPONS transforms “Should/Must” into an acid-soaked slugger that defies gravity,

Slow-motion death disco, dubbed-out drum machine rhythms, and ACID across the galaxy.

‚Sztuka Znikania’ is yet another invitation to join TAMTEN on his journey through time & space. The second single could serve as a portal to the quirky world of ‘Wschodnia Fala: Reimagined Vision of Eastern-European Wave Music’.  The form of the album meant to resemble the structure of a movie, like a soundtrack to a film that you play in the theatre of your mind, with a little bendings of tape affects your perception of the spectacle, altering it and making it feel a bit different with each time. It’s a coming-of-age like story with the protagonist getting more emotionally mature, while going back in time to learn more about mistakes that could have been made to make them feel something.


The title is a reference to the polish documentary movie called ‚The Art Of Disappearing’. The way that its director described his work practice during the shooting of that film and some general theoretical approach seemed relatable to TAMTEN while he was working on ‚Wschodnia Fala’.

The release contains the special radio edit version of the title track. This time around TAMTEN also brought the ALL-STAR producer team proudly representing the broad spectrum of contemporary polish wave music, that we tried to define with this whole album concept. It took the involvement of the true pearls of the Baltic sea - Jazxing, Breslau-based, Superkasety head honcho, with PhD in hauntology - Dj Duch and Warsaw-based veteran Polotronic to work-out the most danceable versions of the track. 

Pick your favourite, take all of them. Embrace the eastern-wave.

Viper Patrol - Stickem

Polaris is proud to present an exciting new release. This time we welcome Cabizbajo, the talented Mexican musician delivers us a stunning two-track ep of black aesthetics.

We start with ‘Driving South’, an angry, cerebral composition that transports us with its 'Mad' vocals and dirty synths. Its darkness will immerse listeners in Mexico City's darkest clubs.

We continue with ‘Bad Omen’, a Techno track full of tension, to play peaktime. With its industrial edge, its dangerous bass line escalates in intensity with loud, gurgling synths. While its devastating break will surprise more than one.

Enjoy!!

Cabizbajo - Bad Omen [Polaris]

Chapping on the door to wake me, YOU CUNT. 
I have been waiting here all night. 
You could've picked me up. 
Oh, she had more "strings" to her did she? She can fuck off, am telling you.
I don't wanna hear about her ways. 
You know you love it this way, get a grip and hold my neck. 
Make it dirty baby. Make me throb. 
Like when we first met.

PREMIERE: Cabaret Nocturne - Blind Trust

Label: AEON | Release Date: 8th November 2019 | Cat no: AEON042 | Distribution: Kompakt

Tracklist:
1. Darlyn Vlys - Traca Y Pólvora
2. Darlyn Vlys - Traca Y Pólvora (Cooper Saver remix)
3. Darlyn Vlys - Serpentine
4. Darlyn Vlys - Serpentine (Speaking Minds & Amarcord's Club Tool)

AEON is a label that’s really in a rich vein of form. Following on from the success of Jenia Tarsol’s recent ‘Strom’ EP, which found it’s way into a myriad of tastemakers boxes, they welcome French man of the moment, Darlyn Vlys for a stunning EP.
The title track Traca y Pólvora is a powerful, melodic masterpiece. A driving, dynamic groove underpins an irresistible bass line anointed with, vocodered vocal snippets and huge emotional pads for an almost trancelike euphoric journey. Serpentine is similarly exciting, but darker in it’s approach. A relentless bass line is main feature here, with a broken beat just adding to the drama and sinister vocals complete the vibe with devastating effect.
Remix duties are fulfilled by Cooper Saver, with his first outing on the label, and label stalwarts Speaking Minds and Amarcord. Cooper Saver has been in fine form of late. His recent release, 'The Search' on Permanent Vacation was huge and is still being hammered in the clubs. Here he takes on Traca y Pólvora with a stunning remix. A slightly lighter take on the original with an easy groove and a moving bass line that makes this the perfect end of the night track.  Meanwhile, Speaking Minds and Amarcord take on Serpentine for their ‘Club Tool Mix’. Their approach is a dark affair, with linear moody elements throughout which takes the track into peak time ‘strobe and smoke’ territory.
A powerful and impressive package throughout here and yet another stamp of quality from a fine label. File this under Big Room Moments!

Incoming # Kalipo & Local Suicide - Dominator (Bufi Remix) #HOLDYOURGROUND
Buy : https://www.beatport.com/release/dominator/2834439
Available on : 2020-02-05

Powering on from their successful year of releases, the Berlin-based duo Local Suicide have teamed up with Kalipo, the Bavarian producer whose downbeat, hazy tracks are renowned for their electric melancholy vibes.

Releasing on Hold Your Ground, a sublabel of Audiolith, that credits a wide range of countries and influences to bring them the best electronic sounds from around the world, allows for the diverse talent on the EP to take centre stage.

The two tracks Dominator and Crocodile ooze new wave nostalgia and confront us with the metaphorical vocals that reminisce in our experiences as humans. Dominator's syncopated kicks and synths march toward you like a band of dancers, while the sassy vocals inspire that feeling of rebellion and seduction. Crocodile is a much grizzlier track, with the synths resonance taking full effect on your ears as the succinct vocals chant to you like they are coming from within.

Mateo González - who the duo know well from collaborating with on previous projects such as last year's track Komm Ins Loch - has taken Dominator in his stride and given us 2 remixes from his ulterior aliases. The Theus Mago remix is a harrowing acid-trip take on the track; dipping its metaphorical toe into the dark and mysterious pool of techno that he approaches his remix's with. Keeping the vocals isolated and minimal, the track glitches into a world of its own interpreting and digesting its own melody and rhythm. Bufi's remix hits us with housey and disco claps and cowbells, bringing us into a bohemium jungle, full of exotic but intriguing ingredients that overcome all the senses.

The final remix on the EP is Saint Petersburg's Radial Gaze's take on Crocodile. The track, in a major key, incorporates laser synths that shoot out in every direction, while the manipulated voice that lures you into the climax of the track is met with ringing percussion; keeping those same grizzly kicks from the original track

A superb compilation of electronic and new wave sounds, intended to tempt each listener whatever their musical pleasures. The nostalgia-inducing project is set to be released on the 7th of February 2020, on Hold Your Ground
