Premieres

Four melodic lines with a seven seconds delay
they create an adorable harmony
An interesting starting point on the theme of exile
I hope one day to be able to record it again

work in progress.

Radical industrial dark wave horror ambient, that is what I present in my soundtrack style tracks what I produce on modular systems with analog effect pedals. Sound comes through layers of voltage and resistances and finally comes to your mind blow expierence with extatic braindances and message to the next civilisations.

Polymorphism Records adds to its catalog the latest work by Vanity Productions, the alias of Christian Stadsgaard. The Danish producer, in addition to co-founding Posh Isolation alongside Loke Rahbek, has been involved in other collective projects such as Damien Dubrovnik, with his partner Rahbek, and The Empire Line, alongside two other major names: Iron Sight and Varg.

The Madrid-based label launched in 2019 with a first release by Alcarcia, the label's founder. This was the first installment in a series of four releases, concluding with An Eternity Still, a work that stands as a sonic manifesto on transition, memory, and transformation. Vanity Productions delves into the idea of closing cycles, exploring the tension between nostalgia and the need to move forward. The album captures that fleeting moment when memories cling to the present while the future demands its space. There is something ritualistic in this farewell, like shedding accumulated weight, letting go of what was once cherished to embrace the new, or setting fire to the past without fear of what lies ahead.

Musically, this work expands the artist's characteristic sonic spectrum. Across the album's five tracks, Vanity Productions crafts a sound identity that oscillates between harmonic melancholy, long, sustained chords and evocative vocals that transport the listener to a serene and beautiful space, and the gradual erosion created by accumulating layers that degrade the soundscape.

The composition and creation of An Eternity Still feature contributions from Emma Acs and Malthe Fischer, along with Christian Stadsgaard himself. However, space is also given to two other artists, Ireen Amnes and Farzané, who reinterpret two of the album's tracks with distinct outcomes. Ireen Amnes’ version of Vanishing Point takes on a more unsettling tone than the original, while Farzané’s remix of Slow Oscillating Void suggests that the end of the journey is abrupt, starkly contrasting with the comforting sonic environment crafted by Vanity Productions.

Release date: February 14th, 2025.

Once I died began as a solo project by Gianluca Rimei, an Italian musician and producer formerly part of the techno-industrial duo Calle Quevedo. The project’s debut album was released in 2022 on the Valencian label Industrial Complexx. Over time, Once I died evolved into a duo with the addition of vocalist Valerio Pascucci, leading to an expanded sonic palette that merges noise, shoegaze, and experimental elements.

Will I Die? No. is the second album by Once I died, marking a crucial step in their sonic evolution. More than just an album, it captures the raw imprint of a transformative experience. Inspired by a psychedelic journey in the woods, the record's concept stems from an unplanned discovery of a hidden forest sanctuary. Guided by the sudden disappearance of deer into the bushes, Gianluca and Valerio stumbled upon a secluded "wood cave," which they later named Villa Daino "Deer Mansion" in Italian. The site became the backdrop for their psychedelic ceremony, an introspective voyage where they confronted the dissolution of ego and the persistence of consciousness.

The album title was born from a phonetic resemblance to Villa Daino, but it also encapsulates the core revelation of their experience: the ego may dissolve, but consciousness remains eternal. Sonically, Will I Die? No. is a ritualistic exploration of sound, merging blunt, heavy distortions with ethereal vocal melodies. Each track oscillates between dreamy, hypnotic textures and crushing noise, an immersive push-and-pull between chaos and serenity, enlightenment and raw intensity. Once I died describe it as "a pop record produced in hell."

Release date: June 11th, 2025.


Premiere: Once I Died - Karma Failure [Solium Records]

Rhys Fulber, a key figure in the industrial and electronic scene for his work with Front Line Assembly and Delerium, presents his new solo album, Memory Impulse Autonomy, under Artoffact Records. This work bridges his roots in the dark sound of the '80s (inspired by Cabaret Voltaire, Portion Control, and his fellow Skinny Puppy collaborators) with his evolution into contemporary industrial techno.

The album captures the creative essence of his early years, when he experimented with analog equipment in improvised sessions. "The title reflects those memories of musical discovery and the freedom to create without constraints," Fulber explains. The album features collaborations with avant-garde vocalists: William Maybelline (Qual) lends his signature brooding voice to The Abyss, Barkosina (Years of Denial) shines on the club track Only Love Will Save You, and Konstantin Unwohl adds depth to the industrial ballad Nichts Dafür Getan.

The cover art, designed by legendary artist Steven R. Gilmore (longtime collaborator with Skinny Puppy), pays homage to the genre's classic aesthetics. The album alternates between powerful cuts like Exlavier and more atmospheric moments like Further Back And Forward, showcasing Fulber's versatility.

It's a gift that producers as influential as Rhys Fulber continue to enrich our ears with new work, while also sharing their personal reflections on their current creative phase and new album.


Release date: September 5th, 2025.




Premiere: Rhys Fulber - New Despotism [Artoffact Records]

Recently, it has been a year since French DJ and producer Mystery Kid burst onto the electronic scene with Black Sheep, her debut track, released under the Italian label Nubians Of Plutonia Records. Over this time, the French artist has released a few more tracks, including notable works like Studio Session 013, an EP published alongside her compatriot Discord on the label Paco Tyson. However, if there’s one thing worth highlighting, it’s her collaborative spirit and her connection with other creators. This attitude is brilliantly reflected in her latest release.

To commemorate this first anniversary, Mystery Kid presents Mystery Kid Remixed #001, an album that not only celebrates her evolution as a producer but also pays tribute to the artistic community that has accompanied her on this journey. Far from being a simple remix compilation, this project is a collective experiment in which eleven producers from different corners of the world reinterpret her tracks, blending genres like disco, indie dance, and EBM into a rich mosaic of nuanced sounds and influences.

What makes this work special is its nature as a global sonic laboratory—each track functions as a unique artistic dialogue, where collaborators imprint their personal vision while maintaining a subtle thread connecting them to Mystery Kid’s essence. The result is a musical tapestry that reflects both the diversity of today’s electronic scene and the open, generous philosophy that has guided the artist throughout her first year in the industry.

Release date: June 13th, 2025.


Premiere: Mystery Kid & Discord - Kitkat Anthem (Sachazam Rework)

Under the alias SR60, Italian experimental artist Giuseppe Mascia crafts dark, hypnotic, and transcendental soundscapes. Mascia works with a minimalist synthetic palette, where every element, from industrial pulses, layered textures, and fractured rhythms, carries its own weight. His compositions are exercises in controlled tension, with noisy structures colliding against static backdrops to create a sense of ordered chaos.

Giuseppe Mascia returns with a new EP as SR60. Hel draws inspiration from cinematic cyberpunk and dystopian aesthetics. The project unfolds as a collage of audible landscapes, fusing industrial beats, dark narratives, and sonic motifs that sit at the crossroads of advanced electronic music.

The EP’s intro couldn’t be more evocative: a fragment from Meltdown, Nick Land’s chaotic text, recited by an artificial voice emerging from an eroded soundscape. Condition, a collaboration with Tez (Clock DVA), is a journey of contrasts where melodies intertwine with pulses and interference. Nightmare City pays homage to Italian horror cinema, specifically Incubo sulla città contaminata (Nightmare City, 1980) directed by Umberto Lenzi.

No City, meanwhile, delves into macabre folklore, with lyrics revisiting the legend of Edward Mordake, the Victorian man with a demonic face on the back of his head, transplanted into a post-industrial setting. As the EP nears its end, Ascension builds an unsettling atmosphere through an anxious, relentless arpeggio. Finally, Sonic Landscape closes the record with desolation and emptiness, its blurred chords buried beneath layers of sonic corrosion.

Release date: May 30th, 2025.


Premiere: SR60 - No City [MacroTerra]

The Serbian producer, a key figure in the Balkan scene and founding member of the E75 collective, showcases his signature fusion of raw electro and techno elements in this release, proving why he has remained at the forefront of the genre for over 20 years.

The EP emerges as a sonic manifesto where technical precision meets unrelenting attitude. From the opening bars of Robotech Pt 1, with its menacing basslines and distorted synths, it’s clear this is material crafted for moving crowds in the darkest corners of the underground. Civil Rights heightens the tension with intricate rhythmic patterns and acidic leads, while Moving Back and Forth ventures into more hypnotic territory without sacrificing an ounce of energy. The closing track, Robotech Pt 2, serves as the perfect epilogue, condensing the essence of Alavux’s sound into six minutes of metallic percussion, granulated bass, and the apocalyptic atmosphere that has earned him support from icons like Dave Clarke.

A decade after his breakout Octagon EP on Bass Agenda Recordings, this new release on Urban Kick Recordings reaffirms Alavux as a consistent and visionary force in contemporary electro. Bitrate stands as an essential sonic document for understanding the genre’s evolution in the third decade of the 21st century, preserving underground ethos while pushing technical and creative boundaries.

Release date: July 18th, 2025.
