Lowercase Life's sublabel Loop Of Life present ‘Balancing Act‘ - the debut extended-player from Italian producer Kuiper Belt, named after the celestial dust ring imagined by Dutch astronomer Gerard Kuiper back in 1951...Our pick is ‘Balancing Act‘ - a shapeshifting electro track that begins in subdued shimmer. Arpeggios flickering like sodium lights on an abandoned overpass, before launching into a syncopated frenzy of breakbeats and scorched basslines. As synthetic lifeforms rise, ‘Balancing Act’ becomes a trans-dimensional joyride powered by the ghosts of dancefloors.

Toronto, Canada-based acid techno head 747 is back with his first studio album since 2019 and his third on Emily Nicoll’s Aquaregia label. This one taps into his roots in the Pacific Northwest with a retro-future collision of jungle breaks, 90s trance and acid across nine cuts that range from atmospheric acid techno to more introspective, breaks-driven sounds, but always with great pad work and rolling basslines making for bursts of chaotic energy. The title cut immediately locks you in with thrilling drum programming and pensive 303s, then cuts like 'Second Narrows' get more frantic and mind-melting and 'Camosun Bog' pairs plunging bass with more meticulous drums.

Manchester-based imprint Resonance Spectrum kick off its release schedule with 'Love Colours' from label boss and producer Nickon Faith...Standout track, ‘Inner Thoughts’, unfolds like a disembodied pulse beamed in from a chrome-washed tomorrow. With stomping kick-drums slicing through a constellation of fractal arpeggios, the track pulls the listener into a state of synthesised transcendence. It feels like a stream of encrypted data, transmitting subconscious algorithms across the shared frequency of the dancefloor.

Berlin-based record label Wie Ein Gott prepare to unleash ‘Sledgehammer‘ from Berlin-based producer XTR Human...Our pick is Baha‘s version of ‘Sledgehammer‘ thanks to its warehouse-primed techno sermon infused in euro-trance sweat. Kicking off with smoked vocals and horror-score synths, the track plunges into a blackout of breaks. As the track evolves, thumping kick-drums intertwine with bleached arpeggios and decayed monologues, wrapping the audience in a climax of ecstasy.

XTR Human - Sledgehammer (Kris Baha Remix) [Wie Ein Gott]

They bounced and floated softly in the breeze before crashing down with pace upon the shore. A myriad of colours - radiant blues and pinks and orange - the beach balls were the bubble and buzz of the summer on the resort.

This was a tropical climate - the sort made for sipping long cool drinks and lounging upon benches as the world whizzed past in the distance.

Far out at sea she could see a jet ski whizzing atop the water, she wondered who might the rider be, a meek dot against the outback of dense blue ocean.

It was summertime.

Crystaline Reality gets us feeling all sun kissed with a fun collection of tracks on a joint release between DANCEMPORIUM and Tartelet Records.

Kenya presents her new debut EP for Talking Machine after joining the label crew in 2024, titled Fractal Vision. The EP consists of 3 tracks, accompanied by 2 remixes by Anatolian Weapons and Arvin Fajar. The EP itself narrates about a journey through emotion and experience, capturing the essence of growth, introspection, and transformation, one that creates a dynamic landscape. From every track, it is something that developed naturally through the textures and layers of the sound it self, create something that feels like telling a story through sound.

The EP starts off with Transfer Your Energy with steady bassline that knocks the track gently, keeping the listener on the ground. The dreamy bells that surrounds the track make an important role to the mood, chased by distort sound and noise with on the bridge, an intense acidic layers and synths with high hat that gives house feels to build up the energy itself, caving your ears until it stops.

For the second track is Turbulence, a mid tempo track that gives a sense of hypnotizing along the track, with modulated bassline, atmospheric pads with long decay and subtle granular processing, sporadic high-resonance synth fills for dynamic contrast, and dissonant high-register minor stabs for tonal tension, complemented by organic flow, and stabilized by a classic kick drum for foundational weight.

For the ending, Fractal Vision, an uptempo journey driven by a groovy bassline and some bittersweet background synths to give the sense from the EP itself, layered with snare fills that clash playfully against a trashy front snare, while dual harmony synths intertwine to trigger the emotion, all subtly underscored by a spoken words that deliver thematic messaging without disrupting the momentum.

A transforming beast of a track, it mutates into an intense, acidic bassline-driven force, layered with glitchy electronic synths that guide the listener through a turn-around journey—an invitation to both dance and pause. Smart sequencing sustains tension, building an immersive bridge for a heavy-hitting drop. A short-decay, raw yet polished snare knocks from the back, with mid-tone percussive textures subtly shaping the groove. Perfectly placed hats charge the atmosphere unconsciously—injecting housey. Near the close, a spoken message adds deeper meaning—a final treat before the sound disappears into the ether.

A trance-style synth melody gradually builds up with an opening filter, increasing energy and creating a festive, euphoric vibe—like an outdoor rave. A steady rhythm and acid-style effects swirl in the background, adding depth. As the track progresses, a layered melody slowly emerges, staying strong and steady. A deep bassline quietly supports everything, giving the track a solid foundation. Crisp hi-hats shape the rhythm, making room for key vocal moments that draw the listener in. All the sounds come and go smoothly, keeping the flow tight and intentional.

1. Kenya - Transfer Your Energy (Original Mix) 
2. Kenya - Turbulence (Original Mix)

PREMIERE : J.Deere 420 - Outer Space [HBVA002]

READ > https://inverted-audio.com/premiere-havsmorker-ilvader/

Following our recent news article on Kokong Festival, today we turn our attention to the festival’s inaugural sampler - a curated glimpse into the artists set to perform this weekend inside the iconic geodesic dome at Pub Stallhagen on Åland.

Spanning four tracks, the compilation brings together leading voices from the Nordic electronic music scene: FISK, the analog techno alias of Finnish producer and Elektron product specialist Daniel Troberg; the exploratory textures of Andreas Tilliander and jazz trumpeter Goran Kajfeš; the murky Baltic atmospheres of Havsmörker; and the pulsating club energy of Norwegian techno veteran Mental Overdrive.

Our pick from the sampler is the opening track 'Ilväder' by Scandinavian duo @havsmoorker. Comprising Anton Johansson and Axel Jonsson, the pair fuse field recordings, analogue synthesis, and traditional acoustic instrumentation into immersive folktronica and ambient works. Their sound conjures a sense of sensory navigation - foggy, spatial, and deeply intuitive.

Steeped in atmosphere, Ilväder is both murky and crystalline - a meditative piece that weaves mystical synth lines with effervescent percussion, blending natural elements like flute with earthy, ancient textures. The result is an experimental, downbeat track that gently leans toward the techno spectrum, while remaining rooted in introspection and place.

Havsmörker - Ilväder [KOKONG]

Longtime TX techno scene veteran Xander Harris is back for blood on the reactivated TRU label from fellow Lone Star cyborg Gavin Guthrie (TX Connect) as well as DJ/Producer Xinexport.

Prepare to enter a world of scuzzy synths buzzing like cathode-ray screen-glow reflected back from bloodshot eyeballs, basslines sizzling like seared flesh around overheated nethacker brain-jacks, synchronized laser saws slashing serrated arpeggios to the rhythm of robotic drum machine assembly lines, dystopian melodies refracting through the haze like swarms of gleaming crimson camera eyes...6 trax of unstoppable terminator assault audio.

Alexander Kulikov - Sunset [Premiere I SOMA688D]

Hailing from Tel Aviv, and cutting her chops on the Los Angeles underground, Mor Elian is a relatively new name on the block, but her tastes have seen her share the stage with the likes of Kerri Chandler, Mike Dunn, Seven Davis Jnr, or DJ Qu and most recently, releasing her debut vinyl release on the excellent Prime Numbers label, featuring FXHE’s OB Ignitt on remix duties. 
On ‘Drum Vortex’, Mor strikes a killer release for Hypercolour, enlisting two big remixes on the release from Joey Anderson and Markus Suckut.  Joey Anderson has proven himself as one of the most diverse house producers out there, with offerings for Dekmantel, Syncrophone, Latency and Tanstaafl Planets. Joey remodels ‘Drum Vortex’ into an old style warehouse dub; rolling congas and snares with incessant synth stabs and bending strings, making up for one serious remix from Mr. Anderson.
