SOMA NEU Vol. 5

Synthetic déjà vu

Joton - Synthetic déjà vu [SOMA690D]

Release date (vinyl & digital): 10th of October 2025

TRACKLIST:
A1. Second Skin
A2. The Ring
B1. Neon
B2. Blood

INFO:
With his first EP on Token, Phara conjures up four tracks detailing dancefloor impact with robust personality. In ‘Second Skin’, the Belgian artist is eager for resolution, keeping tension high with the bold analog sound he’s known for. Coming eye to eye with the label’s sound, Phara pays homage to Token while fiercely defending years of artistic direction - layering the label’s astral ambiance with his unstoppable movement.

‘Second Skin’ sets Phara’s intentions clear. The titletrack rolls forward like heavy machinery with what seems like shifting vocals breathing life into the stereo image. This first cut is a gold standard of peaktime production, creating a sense of purpose at the core of urgency. Claps and rides boom and whip around the track that lumbers on with chord stabs to add soul to flare. ‘The Ring’, however, takes the listener into another direction. Heavily centered on the drum sequence with a sharp slap-back delay, Phara plays with resonance, sparking psychosis amongst movement. Playful in the short term, ‘The Ring’ proves to be an ultra-hypnotic track reserved for a set’s high intensity stretches on an already surrendered dancefloor. Taking this energy and pulling it in, ‘Neon’ comes to establish a bit more intimacy at first. Here, the producer diffuses his elements into themselves and, in turn, creates a thick ambiance that drives the record forward in space and dissonance. ‘Neon’ is inquisitive and almost spiritual in its effect, playing with the line between a unified dancefloor and an introspective journey. The conclusion to the EP is ‘Blood’, a return to dryer production - at least in the beginning. Ambient, almost psychedelic synth work sucks in the listener over unwavering energy to create a closing track worthy of its name. Rolling through to the end, ‘Blood’ delivers the final blow to an insatiable record on Token by Phara.

Cirkle - Fading Trails - SUBL025

A1 - Silent Rage
A2 - Beaten II
B1 - Machina
B2 - Fading Trails
DIGI - Lightshifter

Sciahri’s label, Sublunar, is proud to welcome back one of its familiar faces — Cirkle — with his new EP, "Fading Trails".
Known for his unmistakable sound, Cirkle continues to blend classic and modern techno elements in a way that cements his place as one of the most distinctive producers in the scene.

The EP opens with “Silent Rage”, a powerful and hypnotic track driven by infectious vocals and intense energy. Next comes “Beaten II”, the follow-up to one of his most celebrated work a dark, epic journey that pulls you deep into its atmosphere.

On the flip side, “Machina” explores a minimal but heavy low-end territory, showcasing precision and raw groove at its finest. Finally, “Fading Trails” delivers a deep and emotional trip, its arrangement guiding the mind into another dimension a true standout piece.

The digital version includes “Lightshifter”, a striking blend of power and dub-infused textures that perfectly closes an EP destined to stand the test of time.
