Ourá - Permixtion [Starry Earth]

Words from the label: 

Polytope first Polytope EP welcomes two wonder kids from the European bass music scene: the Brussels-based fa:act and Meli Mena from Paris. They have worked hard to deliver you a 6-track, club-ready opus, with a special collaboration and a remix by Maoupa Mazzochetti.

 "COUGH TWICE IF YOU CARE" explores the depths of the hardcore continuum with a special twist from these two talented artists: 

fa:act created two dancehall-inspired bangers with his iconic touch: "Wizard Bubble" and "Breeze and Riddim". 

 Meli Mena has produced two high-energy club gems with break influences and IDM resonances: "Hot Girls Get Sad" and "SideQuest Nap." 

 They both released the already famous 140 bpm club anthem "Dust Drip," which has destroyed many dancefloors all over the world. 

All these tracks got the Maoupa Mazzocchetti special analog treatment; he also gifted us with a strong remix of "SideQuest Nap" from our dear Meli Mena.

Premiere | Konalgad - Gazelle

Release date: 01.09.2025

After turning heads with his debut LP Club Dream released on NYC’s Dance Data earlier this year, Konalgad now pivots into rawer, more psychedelic territory with Gazelle; a self-released six-track EP that dives deep into high-BPM trance states and hypnotic rave energy.

Rooted in tempos between 150–170 BPM, Gazelle blends four-to-the-floor propulsion with breakbeat chaos, centered around the hypnotic original track “Gazelle”. Its alternate versions, the “Tube” and “Liquid” mixes, bend that energy into darker, faster, and more fractured forms, evoking subterranean missions and dreamlike fugue states.

Composed between 2023-2025, Konalgad created Gazelle as a homage to his formative years immersed in trance, crafting a sound that’s both nostalgic and forward-facing, all while maintaining a clear-eyed vision for the dancefloor. With a sonic signature that hones in on rhythmic tension and emotional rave release, this EP is a bold, high-velocity statement from an artist deep in his own lane."
