About Waitomo VA:

"A powerful glow paralyses time in the night. The hypnotic lights and the darkness of the ravine draw together silence and noise, the harmonic vibrations of a-formed bodies.
It's a different light, travelling cautiously and heavily, enough to pierce boundaries. It can permeate and engulf anything, its bioluminescence is magical and part of its amorphous system. 
It's both astral and all too earthly. All around, sparkling threads weave the world's most intricate mesh: those who only travel in a straight line will be able to dodge the stars, but not this. It will be absorbed and be light."

Premiere: Not Mass - Weirperc

Announcing 'Wormhole' , the third VA of Materica, composed of 7 tracks.

Wormhole continues the same style that mostly characterizes Materica, but this time it digs deeper into a dreamy psychelic rave phantasmagoria.

Different artists deliver tracks that move dancefloors into new sonic narratives, inviting you to drop your expectations and experiment with your bodily senses.

Starting from minimalistic sounds such as the ones of Bruna, Tomo, Medlock & Philip Kylberg, passing through the Sci-Fi Wave of Surt,
and diving into the percussive mind-games by K.O.P 32 and Jan Sawm to then arrive to the Psy/Trance track of AYIM.

Eunoia - or beautiful thinking - a fourth DE RIO compilation reflecting on the accelerating life pace where sound assists the mindwork and gravitates ideas borne across fragile imaginations. A massive 17-track сompilation is featuring rising stars and boundary-pushing talents, artists whose creativity is determining the sound of the future electronic scene like Feral, Pianeti Sintetici, Vel, Alpha Tracks, and many more, a novelty substratum in its spectral variety. Loyal to endless sonic exploration for the dance floor of the present future, this release showcases the multi-dimensional soundscapes at the core of techno’s nonconformist spirit. Hear Aratak’s rhythmic pull of absolute traction, dive into Dwelve13's comforting bass and avant-garde piano, feel Answer's bleep integrity, lose yourself in Plate's circular patterns, journey through Wild Moss' psytrance reformations, and slow down for a second with Lenti Sistemi’s leftfield basis and fine-detailed ambience.

(...) a force both hypnotic and unyielding. Its pulse shimmers like heat waves on the horizon, dry and relentless, drawing you into a sweltering trance. A journey through barren landscapes, where heat, sound, and time blur into motion.

Archyness - Shadows

Those who’ve kept their ears tuned to the innovative underground have likely stumbled upon the tribalistic, psychedelic, and focused sounds of Auckland-based producer Eli Høff. Melekan is no exception. Melding traditional psychedelic textures with the deep, introspective palette of the contemporary mental tekno movement, the album constructs a fully immersive world. Synthesised insects chatter, unseen creatures wail, and natural percussive echoes ripple across locked-in low-end grooves, hallmarks of Høff’s hypnotic approach.

Inspired by the bush and doof scenes of Aotearoa and Australia, Melekan feels both ancient and immediate. Its sound suggests a forest alive with ritual: bass hits like the footsteps of larger entities, birdlike chirps flitting through branches, and strange conversations drifting in the wind.

More than a collection of tracks, Melekan is a sonic painting: an ecosystem of rhythm and resonance that dances, breathes, and beckons the listener deeper.

MAGIC - Dark Minimal Deep Tech Instrumental DJ (1)

IMPVLSIV is the multi-layered electronic project of Melina, based in Athens, Greece. Initially rooted in the pulse of techno, the project has evolved into a refined exploration of electro’s emotional mechanics - a dialogue between machine precision and human vulnerability.

Emerging from introspective quarantine explorations, IMPVLSIV’s sound draws on altered states and the psychedelic layers of perception.

Melina has performed at venues such as Tresor Berlin, Astron, Vondelbunker (Amsterdam), Six Dogs, Temple Athens, The Host SKG, Romantso, and B-Side. In 2025, she joined Anthony Rother and fellow artists from Tiger Weeds and Mechatronica for a landmark Athens performance, an encounter that marked a deeper immersion into the electro world.

Her releases include contributions to The Pact VA (alongside Crystal Geometry, DΛS, and Bestial Mouths), her debut EP ATASTHALIES on Public Sex Regime (Amsterdam), and her second EP Nothing Is Everything, With a Twist (2025). She is also featured on the upcoming Tiger Weeds VA, continuing her exploration of machine music.
