Released on 26th October, ‘Dissociaxion’ fuses Interactive Noise’s signature progressive and psy-trance vibe with ARCTORE’s gritty, sinister sonics across two huge peak-time cuts…

Hugo Venegas, also known as Interactive Noise, has been pushing the boundaries of electronic music since 2007, significantly impacting the global progressive trance scene through several influential studio albums and continuous performances at renowned festivals and club spaces. Bringing his seamless blend of electronic sounds, including progressive house, techno, and minimal elements, Interactive Noise is primed to debut on Indira Paganotto’s increasingly popular ARTCORE imprint this October with an impressive two-track release titled ‘Dissociaxion’.

‘The Punisher’ feat. Lil Jorck quickly dives into the release’s flow of driving grooves and riveting musicality. A combination of thick kicks, potent bass notes and fizzing percussive energy lead the way through a series of climatic peaks and atmospheric troughs, all characterised by an ominous vocal topliner.

The second of two tracks with a cinematic entrance, is ‘Where Is My Mind’. It’s an impressive scene-setting record with a vast array of attention-grabbing elements. Its onslaught of highoctane minimalist psytrance beats provides the perfect platform for a continually warping arrangement of rave-inspired instruments and broken robotic vocals to carve out a special mainstage weapon.

Indira Paganotto is an unstoppable force in the music industry right now. After a killer 8-week summer residency at Amnesia in Ibiza for Metamorfosi, with a weekly line up curated by Indira, she took ARTCORE around the world, as the label expands at a rapid rate with a global tour spanning into the first part of 2025.

ARTCORE's presence at ADE was unavoidable, with their brand takeover of the X BANK store for their new winter merchandise launch, it only makes sense they return with a  colossal new VA release in November. A total of 20 tracks and 23 artists, ARTCORE ADE 2025 Vol.1 will be released on the 7th November.

Whilst ARTCORE welcome back artists on the VA who have already released on the label  including ZESHIN, Giorgia Angiuli, and Gray Cosmo, the other 7 artists are brand new. Four  of them are from Brazil, including Dudiish, Henrique Camacho, duo Special M and Tijah &  Dang3r, alongside Israeli trance producer California Sunshine and Nikrom Nataraj representing a remote town in the Himalayas.

Dudiish introduces the 10-track VA with 'Carolina Hi Tech'. By sampling samba anthem 'Carolina, Carol Bela', the Santa Catarina native stylishly weaves flamenco strings with punishing drum patterns employing a series of unpredictable peaks and troughs throughout. A dramatic shift in atmosphere follows with a brand-new artist, Unicorn Blood with their very first release 'Wandering Star'. The enchanting ambience forged early on from melismatic vocals and far eastern instruments soon clash with an onslaught of tough percussion, making for a gloriously inventive piece that traverses contrasting musical cultures. ZESHIN, the alias of Pushmaster Discs head Mattia Trani, pulls no punches with 'Game Over'. Unrestrained but still methodical, the Italian live maestro whizzes together a vibrant concoction of sprightly synth patterns which bubble away to a restless vocal sample in an effervescence of psy-laced electronica. 

California Sunshine's 'Ascending Light' is a fine example of such. A mercurial track that features an offbeat amalgam of whirring trance melodies, bending guitar licks and ethereal pads to produce a mesmerising electronic composition. Henrique Camacho, who's noted for his hi-octane, hi-tech style, brings a tornado-like swirl of energy with his contribution 'Clear Your Mind'. Swelling with unorthodox textures, the track hurtles through measures of safari effects, sitar scales and aquatic bass. 

Italian, multi-instrumentalist Giorgia Angiuli makes a welcome return with her enchanting, vocal-led number 'Rising'. With a tightly woven bass and kick at its core, the track steers proceedings towards a darker dimension by way of echoing, atmospheric synths and astral pads. Sao Paulo duo Special M, who are revered for their chart-topping psych-trance, consistently set a high bar with their music and 'By My Side' is no exception. Tense and brooding from the get-go the beat burns with a white-hot intensity as drum rolls loop around warbling basslines and the MC's blistering lyrics. 

As the VA reaches its final third, Tijah & Dang3r are at the ready with 'Om Namah'. By incorporating this most prominent of Hindu mantras, the duo cultivates a bewitching dance cut backed by a stirring drum beat and brimming with rippling, electro-rock musicality. The supremely talented Gray Cosmos' offer up a killer progressive techno wonder with 'Oyebe'. The track initially creaks with suspense but the tension lifts following the inception of a Cherokee inspired vocal arrangement that rings out over a twinkling soundscape of cosmic chords. 

At the final juncture of yet another beautifully diverse ARTCORE journey is Nikom Nataraj with 'Dance of the Lord Shiva'. An undeniably anthemic closer, the track captivates with its crying guitar solo that shimmers atop a snappy back beat of kicks and drone effects.

Giorgia Angiuli - Lux [sample]

The undisputed queen of Psy-Trance, Indira Paganotto unveils her first music of 2025, shortly after she announced ARTCORE’S substantial world tour, kicking off with 6 dates, 3 of those mark the labels debut hosting their own stage at Tomorrowland, Mysteryland and Dreambeach, with each line up carefully curated by Indira.
 
ARTCORE has become a worldwide name when it comes to Psy-Trance, giving a home for artists both established and new, for the first time creating a label and sound that really deserves its own genre – Psy-Techno. A sound that Indira has remained loyal to, pushing to create awareness, and inviting fans to step into a world designed by her creative imagination.
 
Just announced as one of the first ever females to have her own residency at Hi Ibiza, as well as playing Coachella for the first time this April, there is a lot more to be unveiled this year, but first is the promise of brand-new music this March, with a killer 2 track release showcasing some tougher, darker sounds of her recent studio sessions.
 
The distinctly atmospheric, ‘Kalima’ is a thrilling symphony of dark-psy and techno melodies. Exhilarating from start to finish, the rhythm is driven by emotive synth shots, dynamic percussive fills, and a transcendent vocal component that fortifies an already powerful composition by ARTCORE’s inspiring founder. ‘Dune’ follows and features dramatic trance stabs atop rumbling bass notes alongside a bewitching vocal arrangement. Centred around a captivating, chanting chorus its melody unfurls gradually to incorporate a fierce distortion of harmonics. Two staples in her recent sets.
