To start 2021 with a bang we are proud to introduce ICONYC One. The 3rd and final chapter in the ICONYC label trilogy. ICONYC One will serve straight up techno made by some of the biggest names the scene has to offer, with the objective of blending deep, granular sound design with the 4-bar rhythmic intensity and patterning that makes house and techno so club-effective.

To start this new exciting chapter, we welcome Soolver with their outstanding 3 track 'Mother EP'. Soolver who hail from Germany have seen their releases grace well-known entities like Umek's 1605, Frankyeffe's RIOT and Metodi Hristov's Set About to name a few.

We kick things off with 'Mother' a peak time melodic techno dance floor monster which features a blend of deep bass tones, driving drum programming, cleverly chopped samples and intricately laced chord progressions, building to a massive breakdown before rebuilding to an unrelenting crescendo of energetic drum beats, chord stabs and an ever-warped bassline. Mother is a club monster that growls from the minute you push the play button.

Next up is 'Verve'; a straight up techno affair that delves into deeper territory, which sees driving drums fused with chord hits underpinned by Soolver's trademark bass patterns, before all manner of varied melodies weave in and out of the stereo field to maximum effect. Fantastic stuff!

To close out the release, Soolver drop 'Jahwe' a stripped back melodic track utilizing a hypnotizing chord as the basis of the track underpinned by driving drums that gradually ease their way to the breakdown before unleashing into a rising melodic hook intertwined with the infectious groove that fades in and out for maximum effect.

Soolver's 'Mother EP' delivers influenced melodic techno beats to start the year in style and that will make everyone smile. Another essential release from ICONYC aimed straight at the soul, be ready to dance to it!

Soolver - Mother (Original Mix) | ICONYC ONE 001

Oortek’s (Ex. DAS BOOT) focus lies on the exploration of progressive, dark minimal and driving techno, and its synthesis with ethereal melodic elements and alien, otherworldly sounding psychedelika. Driven by curiosity and a fascination with the unknown, she seeks to fully embrace the creative process and delivers intelligently crafted sets that draw the audience in. Through the transmission of enticing auditory landscapes interspersed with unorthodox twists and turns, her DJ sets serve as an antidote to the stale and ordinary.

Oortek grew up in the inner city environments of Western Germany, where her fascination with house and techno sounds first developed. After moving to Australia in 2013, she quickly discovered the underground music scene and refined her interest through continuous engagement with the community.  Oortek performed her DJ debut in July 2023, and has since played at a number of events held by Brisbane based organisers including Diffuszed Studios, Misheen Productions and Wizards of Kingston.
