Doppler Shift

»sleepstep« is the first collaboration between raster-noton and dasha rush. the record‘s subtitle »sonar poems for my sleepless friends« describes its underlying concept – »sleepstep« is a trip through electronically alienated microcompositions and sound collages that, interwoven with text passages, aim at creating a dream-like atmosphere.

the stations of this journey are striving for oblivion of time, an immersion, a drifting in universal states – death, life, birth, grief, desire. the titles often appear to be raw sketches, fugitive, surreal short stories that rather want to break open than execute.

the musical arrangement, in this context, can be described as rather subtle and fragile. though electronically manipulated, no production technique is pushing itself to the fore. and though clichés are not dreaded, »sleepstep«, as a result, stays away from being cliché. the sonar poems for her sleepless friends are feminine, subtle and personal reports. a musical dream journey in the form of a classical concept record – an album that also stands in the tradition of ambient music.

dasha rush is already known as a techno dj and producer. here on »sleepstep«, she celebrates her alter ego. the cd version comes with a 32-pages booklet that also shows her photographic interest and includes the aforementioned poems written by her. furthermore there is 2 x 12" vinyl version.

This mix includes some music I've really enjoyed over the years. It goes from 90 - 160bpm, then back down to 100.

The first hour I'm pretty happy with technically, with some transitions and layers that I really liked. After the first hour I didn't want it to end and thought it'd be fun trying to bring it back down to 100bpm

The second half was messy, experimental, all over the place, (and over reliant on giegling) but that's part of the fun!

Obseth - Obsession [Premiere I IAR389]

Release date: 7th of September 2018 (vinyl & digital format)

A1. Afnio
A2. Renio
B1. Osmio
B2. Vanadio

After the powerful excursion of last year's Calcata, Neel returns to Token with Transition. Neel is known for engineering precision as the outlet for his creativity, both on his own and through his various collaborations.

Transition continues in this vein. Conceptually based around four elements in the group known as the transition metals and recorded live in one take, each track is a mind-bending trip through the periodic table that retains the human touch of a live performance. Afnio comes in gently, gradually twisting through moods into something for the late hours. Renio's deep spiraling somehow cascades upwards beyond the smooth transitions of the bass. Osmio showcases granulated percussion and tasteful discord, while Vanadio hypnotises with an infinite-seeming yet perfectly positioned high-end wail.

not answering messages here, dm me on instagram: @maeksll

Maeksll is a techno producer and DJ based in Basel, Switzerland. Exposed to a broad range of music from an early age, his productions reflect an openness to different styles while remaining deeply rooted in techno. Influenced by the hypnotic sound of early 2010s techno and the warmth of house-leaning chords, Maeksll’s tracks aim to create an atmosphere that is both rhythmic and emotive.

His approach to production is guided by a focus on movement, subtle melancholy, and a sense of nostalgia — crafting music that resonates beyond the dancefloor. Carefully balancing repetition with evolving elements, he builds immersive experiences that invite both physical and emotional connection.

While production remains at the core of his work, his DJ sets mirror the same philosophy: selecting and layering tracks with an emphasis on groove, mood, and storytelling rather than trends. Maeksll continues to develop his sound thoughtfully, always prioritizing sincerity and depth over spectacle.
