Inner Shah Recordings welcomes Italian producer Vicky Montefusco for the first time, unveiling the L’ago dell’Ego EP. Known for a prolific and diverse catalog across some of the most respected imprints in electronic music—including NEIN, Renaissance, Internasjonal, BAU_HAUS, Rare Wiri, and Science Cult—Montefusco brings his singular touch to the Berlin label.

A native of Napoli, Montefusco has long been a fixture of the European underground, blending sharp electronic frameworks with a flair for melody and drama. On L’ago dell’Ego, he presents two tracks that capture the breadth of his style while expanding Inner Shah’s own sonic landscape.

The title track, “L’ago dell’Ego”, is a dark electro cut brimming with tension and drive—an intricate machine workout charged with shadowy energy. It’s precision-built for the late hours, balancing intensity with detail.

On the flip side, “See You Sun” shines with Italo-inspired warmth and indie dance momentum, its infectious groove anchored by a recognizable motif lifted from a 1982 hit. Rather than simple nostalgia, Montefusco transforms it into something new: bright, playful, and built to resonate across generations of dancers.

With L’ago dell’Ego, Vicky Montefusco makes his Inner Shah debut, affirming his reputation as a producer who can move between dark edges and radiant hooks with equal strength.

L’ago dell’Ego EP will be available on all digital platforms this September via Inner Shah Recordings.

A.1850 Madd Rod

"Delayed Departures", the third single from Madd Rod's forthcoming studio album, follows the sweat-soaked energy of "Make You Sweat" and the nostalgic flow of "Do Not Fade" with a brighter turn. Blending Electroclash attitude with Indie Dance momentum, it rides warm, krautrock-tinged synths and a buoyant groove. The result is a radiant club track built to lift a dancefloor without losing its edge.

Man Power invites Diz (Public House Hi Fi) - 11 October 2025

Anyone following this guest mix series will probably know our next guest. He’s been a huge inspiration for Blank Wave, and one of the main reasons this platform exists in the first place.

Luca Venezia aka Curses — the Berlin-based DJ, producer, and label curator — blends New Wave, Post-Punk, Italo-Disco and EBM into dark, romantic club soundscapes that bridge nostalgia and modern energy (like no other). His latest album Another Heaven (2024) showcases his evolving sound, following Incarnadine (2022) and his debut Romantic Fiction (2018).

Together with Skelesys, he brought the duo Silver Tears to life, delivering a guitar-driven mixture of Post-Punk and Dark Wave with haunting melodies and cinematic textures. Curses also curates the brilliant Next Wave Acid Punx compilation series and runs Ombra International, a label dedicated to shadowy dance music from around the globe. His live sets, often featuring bassist Dame Bonnet, add a raw, post-punk edge to the dance floor and you should visit his live show whenever possible. With his monthly radio show Together Alone, Curses continues to navigate the twilight zone between wave and club culture — making him one of the defining voices of this darkly romantic movement.

Enough said, Blank Wave Guest Mix 115  — an exclusive spellbinding journey made just for this series incl. some rare vinyls, some all time favs and lots of premieres. Curses forever!

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.

Tracklist:
1. Storms on a Hidden Moon
2. Fighting the Oppression with Love
3. Rainy Days in the Summer
4. As The Sun Rises East
5. Playing With Your Love
6. She Moves In The Shadows
7. Make You Sweat
8. Big Cities Make Me Feel So Small
