Breaking Bounds VA Vol. 4 [Snippets]

Preorder now at Juno: https://www.juno.co.uk/products/747-pacific-spirit-vinyl/1093373-01/

Toronto, Canada-based acid techno head 747 is back with his first studio album since 2019 and his third on Emily Nicoll’s Aquaregia label. This one taps into his roots in the Pacific Northwest with a retro-future collision of jungle breaks, 90s trance and acid across nine cuts that range from atmospheric acid techno to more introspective, breaks-driven sounds, but always with great pad work and rolling basslines making for bursts of chaotic energy. The title cut immediately locks you in with thrilling drum programming and pensive 303s, then cuts like 'Second Narrows' get more frantic and mind-melting and 'Camosun Bog' pairs plunging bass with more meticulous drums.

PREMIERE: 747 - Lost Lagoon [Aquaregia]

Pre-order: https://www.juno.co.uk/products/audrey-danza-laughing-in-4d-vinyl/1098871-01/

Swiss DJ and producer @audreydanza marks a major milestone with her debut vinyl EP, titled 'Laughing in 4D', out this summer on @air-ways-552304462. 

A six-track excursion through shifting emotional states and tightly-wound rhythmic explorations, 'Laughing in 4D' captures the tension between restraint and release. Twisting basslines stretch, snap, and spiral through layers of percussion, driving textures, and off-axis melodies.

Premiere: Audrey Danza 'Treadmill Fog'

French selector Klåra delivers a mind-bending contribution to the series, drifting through the trippier corners of techno and trance.

RRR MIXUP - Klåra

No drops. No hooks. Just ghostly pulse and granular hypnosis.
Danse Avec Pack 4 shifts inward and summons the invisible.
Dance becomes internal. Rhythms stretch like shadows, textures flicker like distant chants. Perception blurs. Spectral tribalism, murky basslines, melodies that drift like faceless spirits — all unfold within.
This new compilation merges tribal rhythms, deep psy-bass, and trippy harmonies with atmospheric textures, where psytrance is deconstructed into hypnotic beats and spooky melodies.
A compilation like a spell — cast in fragments of rhythm and fog.
An inward procession.
A continuous trip.

Claude B - Break Your Fence

Four years after his debut EP, Seo John takes a detour into introspection with "Scenic Route" — an atmospheric journey that blurs time, memory, and movement.
Each track feels like a road untraveled, yet oddly familiar.

"Painted Woods" opens the journey with lush, sweeping strings that evoke the feeling of walking through a forest wrapped in fading light.
"Drifting Minds" picks up the pace with a haze of dreamy pads, soft piano notes, and darker synth undertones — tracing the sensation of moving forward while slightly lost in thought.
"Dewpoint" radiates warmth through soft pads and gently evolving synths, as delicate layers shimmer like morning dew.
"Temporal Flora" blends wistful synths and tender guitar lines with live drums, echoing fleeting memories that can’t be retraced.

Melancholic yet hopeful, "Scenic Route" unfolds like a distant recollection — where emotions drift, shimmer, and dissolve, too delicate to name.

Seo John - Scenic Route - Preview

Gadigal Land/Sydney-based label MEGANESIA returns with 'Megazoic', a VA that imagines a future geological era of hybrid cyber-organic forms. Featuring all manner of intertwined tech-organisms, the label continues a trend of delivering upon its promises of refined chaos in spades.

The VA features a variety of artists, from both at home and across the globe, each selected for the maximal and warm nature of their sound. hyperionORBIT, whose track 'sudo-i' is premiered here, is a Swedish-based producer and head of his own imprint, Sporeprint.

'sudo-i' is a jumpy, snarling piece of incredibly modern techno. Natural, atmospheric background sets the scene for a variety of technologically inclined growls, cries and barks, blurring the line between the natural and organic in a way that screams MEGANESIA.

Of his place on the VA, hyperionORBIT shared:

"More than anything, this track came from opening up to genres and styles I had previously ignored and never properly explored. The Aussie scene, in particular, turned out to be brimming with talent and music I found genuinely compelling. So, being able to release this track on MEGANESIA is absolutely thrilling."

'Megazoic' releases via MEGANESIA's Bandcamp on Tuesday, August 12.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: RTHN - Session10 [LR069]

"Sessions" is a collection of live recordings by RTNH, captured in real time during the creation of his performance sound designs. Each track preserves the raw, unedited flow of a live session, where decisions happen in the moment.  Each piece is built on the foundation of looping — not as static repetition, but as a living, evolving form. Through continuous and nuanced manipulation of sound parameters, these loops expand beyond linear time, unfolding with a sense of progression that defies a clear beginning or end.

Recorded: 2024-2025 Tbilisi,Georgia
