On the 8st of September, welcome back artist and producer Benja Henley to deliver his new release "Make You Forget "  to IAMT Red!

"Make you Forget" was created after a long day of watching tutorials. I was in a learning phase to take my production to the next level. After achieving a solid base I then got inspired and started adding my own sounds together with classic rave stabs that always sound amazing in techno. I later recorded myself saying "darkness" and although a bit cliche for the genre, I like the fact that it is my voice in the track, making it unique. The breakdown is in tune with my musical taste, following the style of one of my previous releases, "Injection", i used a melodic synth that doesn't follow a linear note pattern, but instead has an accelerating, out of tempo arpeggio that slowly lures you into a powerful drop"

Internationally celebrated techno artist Victor Ruiz has enjoyed considerable success over recent years with his undeniably authentic strain of underground electronic music. A staunch contributor to the progression of the genre, Victor’s deft ear is guided by a sheer passion for evolution and artistic expression, making him one of the most dynamic contemporary talents on the circuit. Following a string of globally acclaimed releases in 2024, the Brazilian artist now unveils his most audacious body of work to date, delving into the archives of his un-released catalog – old and new – to form his latest medley of tracks, ‘This Is Not An Album’. Landing on Ruiz’s own imprint VOLTA, which now stands as techno’s fourth best-selling record label just two years after its inception.

In an era where music is often consumed with fleeting value, Ruiz challenges this notion head-on. His 8-track collection stands as a powerful statement against the conventional norms of the industry and serves as a bold, rebellious manifesto. 'This Is Not An Album' is not just a release; it is an artistic and conceptual project, deeply rooted in years of meticulous creation. The tracks – some dating back several years – have been carefully curated to form a sundried, yet cohesive body of work that defies both trends and traditional album formats, evoking a totally new listening experience for its audience.

Unlike conventional album arrangements, ‘This Is Not An Album’ represents Victor’s keen enthusiasm towards a plethora of genres, promising a slice of ear candy for each and every listener. Hosting sensibilities across the techno spectrum – from melodic, emotive and groovy, to the deep, dark and hypnotic depths of the genre – the mosaic of cuts aims to provoke a reaction from its audience that goes far beyond that of a commercialist music release. 
 
The release date for this collection - August 8, 2024 - also holds significance to its narrative; another intriguing facet to this conceptually-driven, artistic opus. Featuring 8 tracks, released on the 8th, and with the sum of 2024 amounting to 8, Victor sought to imbue his music with a sense of intentionality and depth, offering his listeners a meaningful and memorable experience tied to the alignment of numbers.
 
"This release is my way of pushing back against the transient nature of today’s music industry," says Ruiz. "I wanted to create something that would stand the test of time, that people could connect with on a deeper level. 'This Is Not An Album' is my revolt to a scene that often prioritizes quick hits over lasting impact.” He continues, “People may think that this has been a very elaborate project but it’s not. I just felt like releasing 8 tracks out of the blue and funnily enough the date aligned perfectly. I hope you enjoy.”
 
Victor Ruiz, known for his profound and immersive techno soundscapes, has crafted this collection to transcend the boundaries of commercialism and return to the liberative roots of dance music. 'This Is Not An Album' is not aimed at mainstream success; rather, it is a passionate expression of Ruiz’s artistic vision. Each track is a testament to his dedication to creating music that is enduring, evocative and deeply personal.
 
Fans and newcomers alike can expect a sonic journey that is thought-provoking, exhilarating and perhaps, at times, confusing. 'This Is Not An Album' encapsulates the essence of Victor Ruiz’s innovative spirit, producing with pure intent and unbridled creativity to deliver a listening experience that is as profound as it is joyously rebellious.

Oliver Huntemann is the man behind the Senso Sounds label, and whose
curation and dedication to the finer points of techno has helped redefine the genre
over the past decade. Aside from offering space to talented producers, he mainly
drops his own unmistakable work on the label.
Crank is just that - prime Huntemann - tough, muscular and funky techno for the
main floor. The gnarly synth bass adds the attitude while crisp percussion gives the
whole thing a real sharp edge.

An early adolescence of solitude found within the immersion in 2000's trance, happy hardcore, drum and bass, and luminaries like Moby, Aphex Twin, and Burial, began the start of a sonic story. The story of Invertist can now be heard.

Born in mid-1990s suburban Yorkshire, Invertist is the UK's newest addition to techno, aiming to push the artistic boundaries of techno.

While digesting the global party scene in the UK, Netherlands, and Ibiza and learning from esteemed producers like Rudosa, Carl Bee and Jakob Gille Invertist has been quietly positioning himself to begin his pursuit.

Having emerged first onto the scene in 2022, under the alias Hidden, with a 2 track EP on Pig & Dan's label, Elevate, Invertist now returns with new music and a refreshed skillset, curated under the watch of his Berlin-based mastering engineer and mentor, Philip Röder.

Invertist's sonic evolution is poised to begin. Join him.
