What do you get if you put two synthesizer sorcerers in the same room? In the case of Skatebård and Lauer, the answer is Trollkraft. Between them, the Norwegian-German partnership have hundreds of releases, run record labels and have wowed crowds across the globe. In short, the two tracks of Trollkraft are the product of some serious electronic talent. Rich and textured drum layers give way to strings and a vibrating bass for the title piece. Twists and turns abound, elements of disco and house brush shoulders with indie and italo as the pair tear down genre divisions. A 90s heyday influence that runs through both offerings, with “One Night in Geilo” taking its cue from house rhythms and a two-stepping melody adopted from that emblematic decade. Reimagining rave in their own effervescent and playful style, these strobe and fog veterans serve up a fat slice of glow-stick elation. Strings weave high into the dawning sky, bongos and toms reveling next incandescent synthines with just a touch of trance thrown in to add spice to this heady and euphoric mix. Two tracks from two true masters.

PREMIERE: Skatebård & Lauer - Trollkraft

A quarter-century after its original release, another gem from Carl Craig's extensive back catalogue is released digitally for the first time as part of the soundtrack to Jean-Cosme Delaloye's film Desire: The Carl Craig Story.

'The Truth', originally released as the B-side to Problemz in 2000, is a deep cut from Craig's archive re-edited & remastered for 2025. It captures the iconic Detroit techno producer in the meditative mode associated with his 69 classics 'Desire' and 'At Les'.

Its release teases the forthcoming soundtrack album where it features alongside the recently reissued classic 'No More Words' and Craig's Grammy-nominated Junior Boys remix, as well as other essential tracks from the Craig discography.

The Truth (Edit)

We took a little break to prepare a proper 60th release here on Forms & Figures.
We’re back with a good bit of weirdness from Tigerskin.

‘Grünkohl’ (German for ‘Kale’) is a galloping, deep dance piece with alien vocal, 
out-of-tune bleep-synths and a car race in the background. Just like Kale with sausage, ‘Grünkohl’ is nothing that comes up every day. We love this and hope you do too.

Mixing and Mastering by Alex Krüger.

Danish producer Kasper Bjørke has tapped Stockholm’s Axel Boman for a remix of Ugle (Drømmen om Møn), taken from his latest album Puzzles.

Known for his off-kilter, sun-drenched approach to house music, the Studio Barnhus co-founder transforms the original flute-driven instrumental into a heady, groove-laden trip - balancing deep Balearic textures with his signature playful rhythms. 

“How could i resist remixing this little pop gem into the stratosphere” says Boman, “ all the elements are there! Proggy flutes and krauty guitars, dubbing it suitable for the most balearic of sunrises, the coziest afterhours or a just ride down the autobahn through the lush mountains of Spätburgundertal”.

Arriving just in time for the shift from spring into summer, Boman’s rework lands digitally on June 13th via hfn music, ahead of the full Puzzles (Club Remixes) EP, due June, 27th.

LATIDO is proud to present Bicho Raro, the new EP by veteran Spanish producer Undo, a key figure in the country’s electronic scene for over two decades. Known for his emotional approach to club music, Undo delivers three original tracks that showcase his unmistakable flair for strong, memorable melodies and subtle intensity. 
From the cinematic drive of “A Shot In The Dark” to the playful weirdness of “Ornitorrinco”, the EP blends warmth, groove and just the right amount of strangeness. The track Ornitorrinco is presented in two different versions, each offering a distinct take on its quirky identity and melodic tension. 
The release closes with a remix by Odopt (Hivern Discs, Born Free), who reshapes Ornitorrinco into a darker, more hypnotic piece, pushing the track into murkier, serpentine territory.

On the label’s latest, Boyanza welcomes back global cosmonaut Leo Leonski into the fold, who brings his signature blend of charming melodies, late-night driving progressions, and overall effervescence with full effect….

Leonski has always prided himself on curating a sound that skips to the beat of his travels, and that is very much reflected in the breadth and diversity contained within his discography. Originally hailing from Switzerland but now based in Mexico City, Leonski is a devotee of the iconic fusion between dance music and a myriad of playful music styles, with great emphasis placed upon live instrumentation to convey rhythm and mood - think House paired with Afro-Funk, Latin rhythms, New Wave/proto-disco synths and vocal performances. His music has a real magnetism to it, wrapped up within a fluid array of styles that effortlessly mixes multiple pools of musicality, allowing Leonski to consistently serve up new and exciting perspectives with each of his previous releases.

‘After Dark’ is the newest addition to his captivating body of work, continuing his exploration of bold 80s-style synth and drum work. Inspired heavily by cruising around the city of Los Angeles, the track embodies the city’s incessant hum and captivating ambience, with an intoxicating array of pinks and purples providing the backdrop to a night of adventure. The original mix of the title track is presented first, and this begins with a classic rhythmic outlay that Leonski has made one of his signature motifs. The vocals then slide into view alongside a pounding bass line, with the laid-back nature of the vocal performance helping to convey the mood and emotive atmosphere vividly. A ‘pacific breeze’ warmly greets us as the instrumentation grows in stature, with interwoven synth lines and intricate polyrhythmics playing their part in allowing the track to breathe and grow. The Club mix then provides a flip side view of proceedings, with the rhythm building with more intensity and feel as the dancefloor sways and moves in the euphoric night air.
