Sad Behaviour The Remixes, Pt. 1

A Tiger in the Ballroom (Bizzarro Universe Remix)

Yesterday I played one of my favourite sets ever - definitely not perfect, but the energy in the room was wild. Played new and old tunes, from tracks from 1979 to tracks yet to be released. The smiles, the shouts of happiness, and the connection in the room that reminds us we are still human, and that clubbing is still a way to escape our day to day routines. Sadly club culture is at risk, and this was probably my last set at Renate as this legendary institution is set to close its doors soon, but I'll bring this and many other nights there in my memory for life.

Thank you for reminding me what this is all about <3

Madd Rod @ Inner Shah x Renate, Berlin - 02.05.2025

Last year I met Tina in Leiria, Portugal, after her show at Stereogun, during Monitor festival. We clicked, and talked music, and we got to the idea of me doing a remix of one of her tracks. Driving home, I listened to her two albums, and every track felt like “the one”, so I ended up downloading a bunch and trying to jam over them, before making my decision. I ended up feeling “Words Unspoken” the most, and decided to ask Tina for the stems. After 18 versions (perfectionism meets ADHD), we’re finally putting out the last one next week via my imprint, @innershahrec.

Such a pleasure and honour to work with such a talent!

Every artist hits a point where polish starts to feel like a cage. In Constant Evolution is Madd Rod’s way of breaking out.

His third studio album follows Sad Behaviour (Discotexas, 2023), a record that marked his transition toward something rougher, freer, and more emotionally charged. This time, Madd Rod takes that instinct to its logical conclusion: imperfection and rawness not as failure, but as a way to keep it real.

Across thirteen tracks, In Constant Evolution drifts between EBM, Electro, Indie Dance, and Krautrock with unfiltered emotion. The warmth of analog gear, the hum of room noise, and the occasional slip of timing are all left in as part of the texture: a quiet protest against overproduction packaged as an album that sounds lived-in.

As founder of Inner Shah Recordings, Madd Rod isn’t chasing perfection. He’s documenting the process of becoming. In an industry that sells the illusion of resolution, In Constant Evolution is a reminder that the cracks are where the light gets in.

1. Storms on a Hidden Moon
2. Fighting the Oppression with Love
