Releases

As the nights grow longer and winter settles in, Berlin's W133 is proud to present the label’s second major vinyl release. W133008, a split EP shared by label newcomer Insomniast and his friend Monibi, who returns for her second appearance, will warm up your cozy evenings or fuel sweaty club nights. This record truly offers a bit of everything.

The A-side, by Insomniast, kicks off with "Cut the Chord," a playful, house-inspired dancefloor weapon sure to light up many dancers' hearts. Following that is "Fooling Him," a break-heavy, darker rumbler packed with high energy. The third and final track on the A-side is "Istanbul," a melancholic, bassy dreamer featuring a Middle Eastern flute.

Monibi takes over the B-side, starting rough with "Your Hoe...," a 4/4 stepper which is inspired by the challenges of living and freelancing in the hustle and grind culture. The modulated vocal sample “I'm your hoe”  is about selling your labour, creativity, and skills and sometimes other parts of yourself like your boundaries.
Her second track, "...Goes on Strike," ties back to B1, offering a dreamy vibe with late '90s-style vocals, heartwarming arpeggios, and a rumbling, melodic bassline. It is a track about going on strike, interrupting the system, and taking to the streets in a joyful manner. A carefree stint of optimism.

The last track of the EP is a clashup of "Your Hoe" and "Cut the Chord" by label boss Pino Peña, combining the most energetic elements of both songs to create a powerful DJ tool.

The release is set for 1.11.24 as a limited 12” edition of 100 copies, as well as a digital release. The fully printed artwork features photography by Philipp Roth.

Insomniast - Istanbul [W133008]

Insomniast's highly anticipated EP has finally arrived. This release is a powerful introduction to the Bristol, UK bass wizard, a title undeniably earned through this dynamic exploration of sound.

Insomniast - Lost All Track

Insomniast - Do it Well

Insomniast x Bodyhook - IIS (Dangermami, Polaar Invites, Rinse France 23 Feb 2027)

The new bass-centric record label “Low End Therapy is the brainchild of French born, Berlin based DJ, producer and sound engineer Monibi and German electronic musician Ultramax. Before launching as a label in 2025, Low End Therapy started off as Monibi’s radio format on refuge Worldwide. Repping all things bass, from breaks, to dubstep, grime, and anything loosely related to beat science and the hardcore continuum spectrum be it, 808 hip hop beats, d&b, all the way to experimental bass and ambient.

The opening track “Ride On” by Insomniast, Bristol native & former Vietnam resident, dives straight into percussive club-ready goodness. Insomniast’s music totally encapsulate the boundary free ethos of Low End Therapy: “Sometimes I’ll get hyped on too much coffee and write a 150 bpm speed garage or house tune, on other days I’ll make something even I can’t define. I enjoy this element of randomness.” 
2025 is Insomniast’s biggest year yet with various things forthcoming on Ommaya, Club Designs, Yuku, Raiders, and Raw Planet, as well as more on Posse Up!, Seafront, W133.

Third time’s a charm, right? Deep, rumbling—a shift in the seasons. Serious stuff, but always with a grin—Ommaya Vol. 3 baby. That’s right, our mainline compilation series is back for round three, bringing in friends from Tokyo to Berlin to the UK alongside familiar faces to properly bass-boost this entry. Bass is so back.

After a stacked year dropping heat on Fantastic Voyage, Posse Up, and his first vinyl release on W133, Berlin-based (via Bristol) producer Insomniast steps into Ommaya territory with his latest EP, Artifacts. Five drum-heavy hitters that sit in the tension between mechanical precision and raw, handmade textures. Cyclical, crisp, and deliberately roughed up around the edges.

Delphic Iris Records Presents Insomniast — ‘First Light EP’

“Out on the field in a euphoric daze, just hanging on by a thread—
warm flashes, fleshly fading memories of rattling sound systems
the night before, and the laughter of mates chatting shit."

"Fucked Up twisted funkinesssss
GREAT WORK" 4/5 - Laurent Garnier

"Digging this" 5/5 - Yushh

"cool tracks" 5/5 - French II

Rooted in his Bristol upbringing and no doubt charged by the
city's ‘something in the water’ effect, Berlin-based Insomniast
distills the raw energy of the low-end underground into a hazy,
euphoric morning after on First Light EP—the fifth vision from
Delphic Iris Records.

Extending genre-twisting bass music motifs, he weaves lively
distinct 808 rhythms, rave-tinged vocal chops and stabs, and
bass grooves into a journey through night’s intensity and
daybreak’s hazy reflections.

At its peak, Chasing Streams and 1024 bang hard with a skewed
fusion of UK bass and playful ghetto tech rawness, both
punching through with chest-rattling energy.

As the night fades, First Light, Higher, and Live in Love summon
a more expressive, hazed-out euphoria, blending broken
hypnotic rhythms with warm house music sensibility—the sound
of a morning spent in the park, bluetooth speaker humming,
Lambrini flowing, mates chatting shit, and the echoes of the night
before still drifting in the background.


Limited Edition 7" Dub-plate contains tracks:
Chasing Streams (A Side), First Light (B Side) and
All tracks are available via digital download.

Release Date: June 6th, 2025
Info: After a couple of 4/4 releases, W133 finally returns to breakier, bassier territory — and presents its very first collaboration EP, entitled „Unifying Theme“. The two Berlin-based artists Prieste5s and Insomniast, who initially connected through the label and have both already blessed W133 with solo material, now team up and deliver something truly special. Their styles complement one another effortlessly, merging into a distinctive and interesting sound.
The EP kicks off with „Icons“ — a deep and heavy roller that blends pounding toms, fast-paced rhythms, and an eerie mystic energy. Things stay moody with „Last Things First“, where a rumbling bassline underpins distorted vocal chops that echo through the void.
„Surge“ continues in a similar spirit, upping the energy with crisp, high-frequency percs and swirling FX, before we flip to a slightly lighter note on „Tempest“. This one’s a bit more playful with multiple percussions, still driving but with a twinkle in its eye.
Closing out the EP is „This is not the End“, a slightly faster and certainly the most mischievous track of the release — high-pitched, water-meets-metal sounds and a juke-inspired rhythm make this one bounce with pure energy.
We sure hope the title of the last track isn’t lying, because we’re already excited for more output from this newly found duo.
As always, the release is complemented by a photograph by Philipp Roth. Out on 6.6.2025 via all digital platforms.
