Brutal Waves w/ Dr Tom Verghese - March 2021

SK1MIX007 : BLACK LODGE & JACK LEVER

Tracklist: http://hyponik.com/mixes/hyp-220-cassius-select/

Even in the fantastical floating universe of DJ Haus' Unknown To The Unknown, Cassius Select is somewhat of an anomaly. Sure like the rest of his peers on the label he's very much capable of inciting movement, although it's how he gets there that distinguishes him. His recent four tracker for the label is a case in point - with its jerky rhythms stumbling and clattering atop each other to somehow form a groove that's utterly insatiable. We've yet to find a pigeon hole that will accommodate this kind of ersatz mixed tempo Funk, although DJ Haus descriptor of the EP as "...mad mashed up hip hop IDM" certainly intrigues.

Coming at you from every angle in ways you probably didn't know possible, this 100% production mix of Cassius Select material is a tantalising look at the arsenal of a talented up and comer.

The Moroccan Techno label SOTOR - سطور is pleased to present you the new release SOT04.

Meaning "lines" in the arabic language, SOTOR shows here its interest in the various shades of Techno.

Horacio Cruz delivers 2 original tracks to write the fourth lines of the Sotor's story in addition of two remixes from Spectrums Date Forces & Alien Rave:

"Octopus Black" is an apocalyptic electro big-banger where Horacio Cruz combines both his techno and electro influences in a unique way. The Spanish techno master offers you here your first experience into a black hole.

The cosmic journey continues with Alien Rave & Spectrum Data Forces versions of ‘Octopus Black'. They deliver a timeless electro gem & draw here with their remixes a musical allegory of our modern decadent world, where mankind is causing its own loss.

On the B-side, Horacio Cruz delivers a powerful techno gem with "Undoctrine".

Released September 19th, 2025

Distribution worldwide by EPM Music
A1 Mastered by Horacio Cruz
A2 Mastered by Alien Rave
A3 Mastered by Spectrums Data Forces
