Irish techno producer, Kerrie, returns to Tresor Records on the 24th of October 2025 with her second EP for the label. Entitled Echoes Of The Live Wire, this collection captures the beauty and essence of live performance; a moment in time never to be repeated.


This fixing of time is also given a different meaning as the EP explores the ways in which intense moments in our lives, both joyful and painful, are crystallised into memory, both beautiful and haunting, lingering long after they've passed.  


Layered meanings are employed throughout as Kerrie explores this idea: Live Wire draws connections between circuit boards and the human nervous system, whilst also toying with multiple meanings of the word “live”.  


Echoes Of channels classic Detroit techno influences, resonating with the distant hum of memories that refuse to fade, while Moment To Memory is a beatless, floating piece which slowly builds to an ecstatic crescendo.  Digital bonus tracks Recircuit and Reclaim add further depth to the core metaphor: the former a driving, minimal yet building techno work-out, and the latter a cathartic and emotionally open track that delivers intensity with vulnerability.  


Echoes Of The Live Wire reflects on memory as a complex, dual-sided force where joy and pain coexist with equal weight. Her creative process becomes a form of meditation and emotional processing, using machines to process, reflect, and let go. The result is a body of work that loops back on itself, telling a story of fleeting moments and their lasting emotional imprints.

This sixteenth release in the core Knowledge Imprint catalogue marks an important milestone (a good 7+ years after its inception) as it welcomes the first solo EP by a South African producer other than the label owner himself. Justyn Nell - @justynnell - has already been making waves in his own right with releases on prominent labels and performances at well-respected venues across the globe. So, it is with great delight that he joins the label roster for a strong 4-tracker like only he can do.

The A-side is occupied by ‘Erebus’ and ‘Obsidian’, both of which have the distinct character of Justyn’s more tool-oriented techno production style. With sharp synths, hypnotic loops, precision percussions and classic call-response tension, these are tracks that are made for peak dance floor moments - no frills, no fuss. On the other hand, the B-side’s ‘Perceived Depth’ and ‘Solstice’ show a different side to Justyn’s usual stylistic tropes. Make no mistake, you’ll still get a full dose of techno, but this time with more hypnotic and emotive qualities that reveal a welcomed development in the artist’s sonic palette.

//ENG//

Border One, one of the leading figures of the Belgian techno sound that became a movement in Europe, has released on world-class labels like Token and SK_eleven. He now presents the 31st release of LDG. The release features remixes by LDG founders YUTA and O-MA, and Shinsuke Goto, whose remix marks his debut.

Exosignal by Border One is crafted with his main principle in mind "making the audience dance". The track is set to LDG’s signature mid-tempo, with sudden pads creating a unique and dreamy development, showcasing true craftsmanship.

The YUTA/O-MA REMIX is mid-tempo minimal techno with a distinct bassline, sharp hi-hats, percussive yet groovy elements, and subtle, refined techniques.

Shinsuke Goto’s REMIX, his debut track, is high-energy yet deep, layering a wavering lo-fi feel with tape-modular-like sounds, creating an addictive, immersive, and trippy modern techno.

Mastering is done by techno legend Peter Van Hoesen. BETA07, blending the refined and beautiful sound that LDG pursues, will be released 5 November.

ヨーロッパでムーブメントとなったベルギー特有のテクノサウンドを牽引する一人として、TokenやSK_elevenといったワールドクラスの名門レーベルからリリースを重ねてきたBorder OneがLDGの31作目を書き下ろす。LDG主宰のYUTAとO-MAに加え、本作がデビュートラックとなるShinsuke Goto、両者のRemixがラインナップ！

Border OneによるExosignalは、彼が最も念頭におく「オーディエンスを踊らせることを最優先に」という理念の元、LDGが得意とするミドルテンポに落とし込み、突如として現れるパッドが幻想的かつ独特の展開を魅せる、まさに職人芸といった作品となっている。

YUTA/O-MAが手掛けるREMIXは、特徴的なベースラインが全体を支え、切れ味のあるハイハット、硬さもありながらパーカッシブでグルービー、燻し銀な技が際立つミッドテンポのミニマルテクノ。

今回が自身のデビュートラックとなるShinsuke GotoのREMIXは、ハイエナジーでありながらもディープな特性を全面に押し出し、揺らめくLo-fi感とテープモジュラーのような音を重ね、中毒的で陶酔感あふれるトリッピーなモダンテクノ。

マスタリングはテクノレジェンドPeter Van Hoesenが担当、LDGが追求する渋さと美しさが共存した本作BETA07、11/5にリリース！

Border One - Exosignal (YUTA/O-MA REMIX)

An exercise in the art of restraint, @carmenelectr0 cited a desire to expand beyond her club persona into a more delicate world she has mostly only appreciated in private. A longtime fan of Ricardo Villalobos, Mr. G, and other pioneers of dubby minimalism, she recorded this mix entirely on vinyl, drawing from more secluded corners of her collection to share tracks that have rarely made it into her sets. Though still recognisably sentimental at its core, she stated an intention to present house and techno cuts that meander through more subtle shades of emotion, whilst hinting at a new direction for upcoming creative projects.

Deep, hypnotic and nostalgic, Carmen channels the gentler B-sides and ambient undercurrents that have shaped her off-duty listening away from the booth. From the "don't think, just listen" spirit of Markus Suckut and the humidity of Roman Poncet to nthng’s near-spiritual finale, the mix is glossy, tactile, and surreal: sixty minutes adjusted to cruise control along the softer edges of her universe.

RESS:
In a world where data streams and signals constantly shift, Mike Storm explores the boundary between order and chaos. Signal Drift is a sonic journey through interference, delay, and digital echoes — where technology finds its own rhythm.

With titles like Binary Fade Sequence, Packet Sstream, and Ping to Nowhere, Mike Storm constructs a landscape of pulsating frequencies and mechanical groove. Each track acts as an autonomous signal, drifting through an endless network of time and space.

The EP carries Mike Storm’s unmistakable signature: precise, hypnotic, and futuristic — a pure translation of machine intelligence into human form.
