Ben Klock’s Klockworks invites the legendary London-based artist The Advent to join the ever-growing roster to deliver the 22nd instalment on the label, to be due out this September. The Advent started producing in his trademark raw, energetic style in 1994 and since then has become a rebel and an icon in the scene. Cisco Ferreira puts forward three stand-out tracks for Klockworks, one brand new one and two from The Advent’s rave archives.

On the A-side, ‘High Horse’ is a fresh track from The Advent that has been prominent in his live sets, features a saucy vocal that can also be recognised as a favourite in Ben Klock’s DJ sets in the past few months, now finally making an appearance on wax for the label. 

The flip-side features two previously unreleased tracks from the 90’s when the approach was more raw and groovy, something that can be seen having a revival in current times. ‘Un Named’ is more stripped down and pulsating while ‘Sound Pove’ features a jacking Chicago house groove with a techno tempo, both fitting perfectly into the Klockworks catalog.

Ale Mayer is an Argentine DJ and producer based in Madrid. After a long period dedicated to semi-professional rugby, he decided to leave his sports career behind to fully dedicate himself to his true passion: electronic music. From an early age, Ale was a loyal lover of techno, although it wasn't until he was 22 that he began to channel his creativity and musical sensibility through mixing and production.

His sound is influenced by both the roots of Detroit techno and current techno, with influences such as Robert Hood and Kevin Saunderson, as well as contemporary figures such as Adam Beyer, Layton Giordani, Nicolás Taboada, Andrés Campo, among others. Furthermore, Ale feels deeply connected to the more melodic aspects of the genre, exploring introspective atmospheres and lower BPM tempos. This combination of influences allows him to create a unique offering, with its own essence that captures the best of each style.

Her main goal as an artist is to create experiences that connect emotionally with clubbers, taking them on a journey of sensations that range from euphoria to drama to introspection. This vision is reflected in both her sets and her productions, which will be released throughout 2025.

On the Madrid scene, Ale has established herself with repeated appearances at parties such as Icebox Club at Sala X Private, Prisma at the legendary Marula Club, Goya Social Club, Hangar 48, and other appearances in venues across the capital.

She is also part of Katarsis Electrónica, a multicultural collective that views music and dance as an ancestral ritual of spiritual connection. Katarsis has organized events in iconic venues such as LAB the Club, Café Berlín, and Hangar 48, and recently launched her own record label, Katarsis Musik, aimed at highlighting prominent artists from Spain and Latin America.

As a personal project, Ale is one of the founders of Monochromatic Sessions, a YouTube channel dedicated to promoting emerging (and not-so-emerging) talent, with the goal of offering quality musical content and expanding the underground electronic music scene. Through this project, he also embarked on his first experiences as a promoter, organizing parties in collaboration with other collectives, thus strengthening his presence in the local scene by creating spaces where the community can resonate to the rhythm of fresh and authentic offerings.
