"Chinese producer Ma Haiping released The Chinese Connection EP in 2012, becoming the first Chinese artist to release electronic music in Detroit. Subsequently, his music was featured on legendary labels, including Jeff Mills's AXIS. Years later, he returned to Detroit with his first Electro EP, set to be released on SCAN Records, the new label founded by the legendary musician SCAN 7.

This EP continues his acclaimed Detroit Futurism spirit. With the rise of technology in a new era, new systems provide humanity with more material resources but simultaneously control culture and thought. "Mind Readers" suggests that mobile electronic devices can track human actions and even make judgments before you think. "Sensitive Period" was co-created by Ma Haiping and Shanghai-based Scottish producer Shanghai Ultra in 2022. "No Exposed" reflects the idea that under the control of technology, it is impossible to reveal anything real because reality itself no longer exists.

The entire EP is crafted with classic 808 drum sounds and a funky bassline, paired with cold synthesizers that create a dystopian texture. Like all Electro musicians, Ma Haiping was deeply influenced by Drexciya."

Portuguese DJ and producer Lewis Fautzi has steadily risen from the quiet town of Barcelos to the forefront of the global techno scene. His trajectory has been nothing short of interstellar; launching with early releases on Portugal’s Soniculture, and quickly becoming a fixture on genre-defining labels like Soma, PoleGroup, Figure, Warm Up, and his own Faut Section.

His debut album The Gare Album, named after the Porto club that helped shape his artistic vision, was a bold opening statement: raw, precise, and deeply personal. A year later, Space Exploration pushed further; revealing his appetite for ambient experimentation. 

Across his discography and throughout his DJ sets, Fautzi blends dense atmospheres with magnetic, machine-like rhythms; building a sound that feels as mechanical as it is alive.

 A true craftsman of deep space sonics, he channels the gravity of the cosmos into #254: tense, immersive and unrelenting. This is Lewis Fautzi at full force.   

Tune in and disappear.

Ma Haiping stands as one of China’s most influential electronic and independent musicians, a trailblazer who has carved out a distinct space in the global Techno scene. His music is a seamless fusion of Detroit Techno traditions with Sci-Fi-infused, hypnotic soundscapes, crafting deeply immersive and futuristic tracks that captivate both dance floors and deep listeners alike.
A defining moment in Ma Haiping’s career came when his album Chang’e-4 was released on the legendary Axis Records, founded by Techno visionary Jeff Mills. Mills himself lauded the album, recognizing Ma Haiping’s ability to push sonic boundaries while staying true to the genre’s roots. This release not only marked a significant milestone for Ma Haiping but also placed him among a select group of artists who have contributed to one of the most respected Techno labels in history. In 2025, Ma Haiping signed with SOMA Records and released the single "Earthworm," strengthening his place in the global Techno music scene.
His impact on the global scene, however, was already in motion years before. In 2013, Ma Haiping made history as the first Chinese producer to release Techno in Detroit—the birthplace of the genre—with his EP The Chinese Connection on Scan 7’s Cratesaves International label. This breakthrough symbolized a cultural bridge between the East and West in Techno, highlighting his deep respect for the genre’s origins while adding his own innovative perspective.
Continuing his journey, 2015 saw the release of Crepuscular Rays on Orlando Voorn’s Nightvision label, further establishing his reputation as a producer with a keen ear for atmospheric and driving Techno. In recent years, between 2022 and 2024, Ma Haiping continued to build an impressive discography, releasing EPs such as XX 8, Collapse, Parallel Cycle, Invincible EP, and Artificial Ecstatic. These works found homes on prestigious international labels, including the UK’s Molecular Recordings, France’s Seclusion, and the USA’s Sythetik Sound, further cementing his status as a global force in the underground Techno movement.
His music has consistently garnered attention from major industry platforms. Beatport has regularly featured his tracks as some of the best Techno (Raw/Deep/Hypnotic) releases of the month, recognizing his ability to craft intricate, powerful compositions that resonate with both DJs and listeners. Esteemed media outlets such as Groove Mag, Mixmag (UK and Asia editions), and 5 Magazine have also highlighted his work, praising his ability to blend rhythmic intensity with atmospheric depth.
Beyond critical acclaim, Ma Haiping’s music has earned the respect of some of the biggest names in the industry. His tracks are frequently played by top international DJs, including Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Slam, Ben Sims, Ken Ishii, DVS1, Rødhåd, Kr!z, and Rene Wise. Their support has helped introduce his sound to dance floors across the world, reinforcing his influence in the ever-evolving Techno landscape.
His performance footprint has reached the Recombinant Festival in the United States, the Cervantes Arts Festival in Mexico, clubs in Australia, Japan, Panama, El Salvador, and other countries. His music is a journey—one that bridges the past, present, and future of the genre. As he forges ahead, he remains not just a producer but a visionary artist shaping the sound of tomorrow.
