Tracklist:
1) Vertigo

Berlin’s ever-evolving mobilee welcomes Captain Mustache and Third Culture for a bold new collaboration, Vertigo. This second single comes from Captain Mustache's new album Luz, which is a collaborative affair that redefines electro with a fresh retro-future lens.

French producer Captain Mustache bridges electro, techno and wave influences with releases on Kompakt, Permanent Vacation and Bedrock. His new album is a deep dive into a wide array of influences from the 80s and 90s and finds him exploring new styles that work at home, away from the club, as well as on the dance floor. Play Paul and Albuquerque-based rapper CS Rucker both feature as do his first two releases on Mobilee, La Vertu with Jean Brock and La Nuit with French techno legend POPOF.

Joining him on Vertigo is Beatport Indie chart toppers Third Culture, (aka Sian & Sacha Robotti), and their sounds stretch across global bass, techno, new wave and minimal.

Vertigo is a taut, snappy ride. Fizzing synth lines coil around jerking, EBM-informed rhythms, while cosmic pads hover above the groove like distant satellites caught in orbit. It's urgent but playful and primed for peak-time damage.

Captain Mustache’s signature synth work and Third Culture’s rhythmic punch blend seamlessly here on a sound that's at once retro-futuristic but also unmistakably now.

Captain Mustache & Mel E. Logan & Drop Empowering New Anthem "Pen Weapon"
Following their previous collaborations ("Mentally Naked" and "Good Weather Girl"), Mel E. Logan (formerly of electro-pioneers Chicks on Speed) and Captain Mustache reunite for their latest sonic gem—"Pen Weapon."
A happy, melancholic tinged celebration of artistic empowerment, the track champions the unifying force of language and creativity—proving that words and music can forge bonds stronger than the weapons industry and the oppressive systems running rampant today.
With lyrics like “Hold me friends, I got your back / A curtain falls, take a look—it hung from a tiny hook,” the song reminds us that even seemingly unshakable structures can be toppled
departure from CoS:
Mel E. Logan steps boldly into her solo era, teaming up once more with Captain Mustache for a track that’s as uplifting as it is rebellious.
"Pen Weapon"—out now—is a call to arms (or rather, pens!) for unity, resistance, and the transformative power of art.

Roliva’s remix of “Vision” strips the track down to its raw, percussive essence. Built on driving rhythms and sharpened textures, it transforms the original’s cinematic melancholy into a tool for peak-time intensity. A dark, hypnotic journey designed for maximum tension on the dance floor.

Captain Mustache & Play Paul "The Pathetic“
The Pathetic

Captain Mustache is back with the third release on Mobilee from his Luz album, this time with Play Paul, the brother of Daft Punk's Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo collaborating on one of the tracks, “The Pathetic”.

French producer Captain Mustache bridges electro, techno and wave influences. He has put out music on Permanent Vacation and Bedrock, while his last outing on Kompakt 'Everything' marked his biggest tune to date with top-tier DJ support and more than 300K plays. His upcoming album Luz is a deep dive into a wide array of influences from the 80s and 90s and finds him exploring new styles that work at home, away from the club, as well as on the dance floor.

The Pathetic is at the heart of the album and is a sleek, futuristic electro-techno sound with sultry indie vocals. Bright arps flash across the face of the tune as the drums surge on and the moody bass adds great weight.

Dancing Like Muffins keeps the pressure on with bright synth lines jangling above the well swung groove and some lush claps. Sparkling arps explode to bring more light and lift up to what is a majestic cosmic odyssey. Add in some vocoder vocals that bring a melancholic edge and you have a transcendent dance floor gem. 

These are two more irresistible tastes of Captain Mustache and his superb new album Luz. 

I WANNA FEEL THE MAGIC
OF SOMEONE CHARISMATIC
I WISH I WERE MAGNETIC
A LITTLE LESS PATHETIC

I WANNA KNOW SOME GLORY
AND STOP LOOKING SO SORRY
I WANNA LIVE A MORNING
WITHOUT FEARING A MOURNING

I’M LIVING AN ILLUSION
THAT LEADS ME TO CONFUSION
I’M LIVING THROUGH A PASSION
THAT TRIGGERS MY EMOTIONS

I WANNA TRUST SOMEBODY
WHO DOESNT WANT TO BREAK ME
I WANNA TRUST MY BODY
AND STOP LOOKING SO EDGY

I WANNA KNOW SOME GLORY
AND STOP LOOKING SO SORRY
I WANNA LIVE A MORNING
WITHOUT FEARING A MOURNING

I’M LIVING AN ILLUSION
THAT LEADS ME TO CONFUSION
I’M LIVING THROUHG A PASSION
THAT TRIGGERS MY EMOTIONS

I WANNA TRUST SOMEBODY
WHO DOESNT WANT TO BREAK ME
I WANNA TRUST MY BODY
AND STOP LOOKING SO EDGY

Captain Mustache & Play Paul - The Pathetic

INNUENDO Radio by Nakk 29.08.2025

A mini-EP of fragile strength. Poetry meets dancefloor. Memory meets decay.

With BDS028, Belly Dance Services presents a delicate yet arresting collaboration between Ravage Sentimental and Nick Hanzo. Their mini-EP Ruins of Us unfolds like a forgotten diary — intimate, poetic, and eerily cinematic. Spanning 3 tracks, the release is a meditation on decay, memory, and the quiet gravity of endings.

A1 – Ruins of Us
Ruins of Us is a rave ballad with techno elements — emotive yet restrained, pulsing with quiet urgency. The track paints the aftermath of love’s collapse with lyrical precision, asking the question that echoes long after heartbreak: "Why did we fall without a fight?"
"We’re like the ruins of a castle, once strong, now crumbling, no battle."

B1 – Un Rêve Sans Fin (Original Mix)
Drawing on Baudelaire’s poems Ciel brouillé, Incompatibilité, and Femmes damnées, Ravage Sentimental delivers a French spoken-word piece that reads like a whispered invocation. The original mix is sparse and dreamlike, shimmering with ambient haze. The voice of Death speaks gently, offering eternal sleep as a form of grace:
"Et je t’endormirai dans un rêve sans fin."
"And I will put you to sleep in an endless dream."

B2 – Un Rêve Sans Fin (Club Mix)
Together, Ravage Sentimental and Nick Hanzo transform the piece into a haunting club rework. Balancing deep melancholy with propulsive energy, the club mix invites dancers into a trance-like state - where Baudelaire's visions swirl in low light, guided by hypnotic pulses and distant echoes.

Sade - Love is stronger than pride (Stimmhalt Remix)

We're delighted to welcome back Amount, aka Nayan Soukie, to Darkroom Dubs as he returns with four subterranean throbbers that effervesce with trance-inducing lawlessness.

A Darkroom Dubs favourite who first debuted in 2013 as one-half of house-combo Soukie & Windish. Since then, he's flourished as a renowned producer, DJ, and seasoned live performer, developing a penchant for sleazy burners primed for the darkest of rooms and those hazy, sunrise-lit, after-hours moments.

This latest offering from the Berlin native, entitled Zeroton, is an essential addition to an already impressive back catalogue, with appearances on imprints such as Feines Tier, Running Back, Frank Music and his own URSL label.

Play 'em loud & play 'em proud!
