STAUB 006
Techno can be happy, techno can be sad, techno can be fast, techno can be slow, it can be deep or banging, it can be straightforward as well as abstract. It might be the soundtrack of hell but may bring you to paradise. 
Techno has many faces and this compilation shows but some of them.
STAUB has always been about the unknown and about diversity: newcomers come on stage after old-timers, peak time happens anytime. Line-ups are not announced. The rules of the game are blurred.

STAUB 006 will be released on (18. Sept. 2021). A record that embraces the very idea of various with 5 tracks and 5 shades of a genre we love and sometimes live for.

Lullaby For Erik

The first Re:Search of the year and number 23 in order is from Rodrigo Agüero aka Dying, a DJ and producer born in Argentina.

A constant progress in experimentation and musical production, influenced by the sound of Chicago and Detroit, has led him to develop a particular vision with a futuristic perspective in electronic music.
