Synthetik Sounds Unveils Star-Studded Compilation to Support LA Fire Relief Efforts
Los Angeles, CA – January 27, 2025 – Los Angeles techno label Synthetik Sounds is proud to announce the release of a powerful 39-track Various Artists compilation featuring an extraordinary lineup of global techno talent. In a time of urgent need, 100% of proceeds from the compilation will be donated to LA Fire Relief Funds, supporting communities affected by the devastating wildfires that created havoc in the Los Angeles area in January 2025.

In January 2025, the Palisades and Eaton wildfires in Los Angeles County burned over 37,000 acres, destroyed more than 16,000 structures, caused at least 29 fatalities, and led to the evacuation of over 200,000 residents, affecting many in the underground techno and house community in our city.
When we asked artists to contribute to a V/A release to help our community, we found ourselves overwhelmed by the amount of support we received.
This monumental release unites over 40 cutting-edge artists, all contributing their signature sounds to this meaningful cause. From techno veterans to rising stars, the compilation is a showcase of boundary-pushing artistry and the unity of the electronic music community.

Featured Artists Include:
Drumcell, Dimi Angelis, Pleasures, Barbosa, Insical, Max Gardner, Aztekan, Chris Liebing, Annika Wolfe, Jonny Maven & Kahai Owens, EMILIANA, Trovarsi & ALX-106, Ecilo, Truncate, Oscar Mulero, Selective Response, Adam X, Cleric, Measure Divide, EAS, Anastasia Giovani, Timekube & S:V:S, Realize, Ø [Phase], Pleasurekraft & Atroxx, Materielle, Marie Nyx, Wata Igarashi, David Castellani, Less Distress, Chontane, Stephen Disario, Lego, no.name, Joel Mull, Ray Kajioka, Sterac, and Secus.
Synthetik Sounds co-founder, Marco Sgalbazzini, stated, “The recent wildfires have had a devastating impact on our local communities here in Los Angeles. This compilation is our way of giving back, using the universal power of music to bring aid, hope, and resilience to those affected. We are incredibly grateful to the artists who donated their music and to our fans who will support this release. When we began reaching out to artists we envisioned putting together a 12-15 track compilation, but as word got out we found ourselves overwhelmed by support from artists and friends all over the world who wanted to contribute and make a difference in helping LA and its people. The result is a 39-track compilation showcasing the diversity of techno’s soundscapes, and just how much both LA as a city and its techno community are loved by people all over the world.”
The compilation delivers a diverse spectrum of sounds, from brooding, chugging techno to hypnotic, melodic journeys, and high-energy peak-time tracks. It embodies the cutting-edge ethos of Synthetik Sounds while serving as a rallying cry for solidarity and support.

Release Date:
The Various Artists compilation will be available for Bandcamp purchase on February 7th, 2025, exactly a month since the fires started, as well as for streaming on all major platforms shortly after.

Join the Movement:
By purchasing this compilation, fans will directly contribute to helping rebuild lives and restore hope in wildfire-affected communities. Spread the word, share the music, and stand with us as we make a difference through the unifying force of techno.
Together, We Rebuild. Together, We Rave.

Truncate teams up with Chicago icon DJ Hyperactive for the ‘Trust The Process’ EP, landing on the former’s eponymous imprint this March. Crafted over the past two years in Truncate’s LA studio, the release marks the pair’s first-ever collaboration in twenty years of friendship and sees them delve deep into their decade-long wealth of knowledge of versatile House and Techno.

DJ Hyperactive and Truncate’s ‘Trust The Process’ starts with ‘Universal Function’, a no-holds-barred dance track with mind-addling loops, each sequence carefully overlapping to melt the ‘floor. The title track then strips things back a little, in which they underpin wiggy acid sounds with an effective groove before ‘Space Shuffle’ shoots for the stars with trickling synthlines and rolling rhythm. ‘Matter Of Time’ then closes out this all-purpose offering with dark, bleepy melodies laid over locked organic drums for another tasty set of cuts on the Truncate label.

Truncate, synonymous with the LA Techno scene as one of its most stalwart champions for over a decade, is known for his quality, groove-driven Techno and handy DJ tools on labels like Hardgroove, his Truncate imprint, and jackin’ WRKTRX sublabel. Here, he taps up Chicagoan 90s Techno and House legend and 4 Track Recordings label boss DJ Hyperactive for the ‘Trust The Process’ EP, whose own production credits span labels like CLR, Nachtstrom Schallplatten, and once before Truncate for 2023’s ‘Reptilian Tank’ EP.

DJ Hyperactive & Truncate ‘Trust The Process’ releases 28th March 2025 via Truncate.

A shift in perception, a rupture in the known—Isabel Soto carves a new space within the abyss with Habitat Alteration. Sine Space 7 is very proud to present the latest EP by Isabel Soto, reinforced with a remix by the fantastic Elisa Batti. Available on vinyl and digital on the 16th of May. This latest EP is an exploration of tension, with the distinctive hypnotic pulses that are so characteristic of Soto.

With a meticulous blend of deep, rolling basslines and unsettling, high-pressure pad textures, Soto orchestrates an environment where time distorts and the senses unravel. The EP's sound design is razor-sharp, each element precisely crafted to immerse the listener in a state of heightened awareness—dark, brooding, and unrelenting.

Elisa Batti steps in with a remix that tightens the grip, amplifying the tension while injecting more rawness into one of Soto’s tracks. Sculpting the original’s ghostly elements into an even sharper and hard-hitting framework, Batti’s interpretation is a masterclass in controlled intensity, leaving no escape from the spiraling hypnosis.

This is techno for those who seek the darkness, a sonic habitat where alteration is inevitable.

Sublunar is pleased to welcome back label manager Sciahri and Hertz Collision for a new chapter in their collaborative journey. Following the success of Axis Mundi, the duo returns with Contatto an EP that reflects their continuous evolution: a modern vision of techno, deeply rooted in its foundational essence.

The record opens with "Contatto", a fluid and refined track where aquatic synth textures bounce elegantly over a sleek and captivating groove. "Vanta" follows with a more driving and hypnotic energy a stripped-down tool designed to shake the floor with precision and style.

"Twin State" shifts the mood with rolling rhythms and sharp, sophisticated sound design a perfect fusion of past and future aesthetics. "Oroboro" then explores deeper territory, offering warm textures and a seemingly gentle presence, while concealing a powerful low-end drive that makes it both subtle and impactful.

Closing the release, the digital-only "Kinesis" delivers a minimal, synth-driven journey echoing the spirit of classic techno, reimagined through a crisp and modern lens.
