Indira Paganotto is an unstoppable force in the music industry right now. After a killer 8-week summer residency at Amnesia for Metamorfosi, with a weekly line up curated by Indira, she took ARTCORE around the world, as the label expands at a rapid rate with a global tour spanning into the first part of 2025.
  
Whilst ARTCORE welcome back artists on the VA who have already released on the label including CHRS, AD7USTMENT and TEUTON. But with another 7 artists making their ARTCORE debut, there is a lot of exciting talent Indira wants to create awareness for, young Colombian Noise Mafia, Spanish collaborators Victor Magan and Franklin Dam, Mariana Revilla from Mexico City known for her acid techno sets and French Teletech favourite
Eskha.
 
Raw femme power comes in the form of Fei-Fei, an established artist from the US, she is all about sexual liberation and making hyper techno for the hoes. Whilst Reblok has made a remarkable comeback as a techno producer after a decade in Tech House, with his music supported by I Hate Models, Kobosil and even Netflix.
 
Columbian producer Noise Mafia kicks off the VA with ‘Gansha’. The Bogata resident - who recently debuted on digital platform HOR - masterfully blends a frenzied bass and drum combo featuring a vocal improv that harmonises with whistling pan flute melodies. The energy remains at full-tilt with the arrival of Mexican techno-export, Mariana Revilla and her track ‘Baby G’. From the off a rush of fidgeting synth riffs run riot through a capacious soundscape of dreamy melodics whilst a hype man MC sample judders alongside.
 
From the Americas to Europe, Rex Club regular Eskha manifests the spirit of the Parisian underground with his track ‘Bisous Bisous’. A warehouse party thriller featuring a female vocalist whose rave-ready hooks rotate around measures of bulbous bass, hypo percussion, and neon whistle effects. Riding the electro-rush set early on comes Fei-Fei - who recently topped Beatport’s Top100 - with ‘Queen of Acid’. Employing original vocals to offer a tongue in cheek “allegiance” pledge at the intro the beat is in stark contrast to her sugary online persona as she opts for gritty industrial sonics, pounding drumbeats, and chaotic breakdowns.
 
Hailing from the Balklans, Reblok’s music has featured on a number of labels throughout his career, but ‘Vigor’ is his first on ARTCORE. The track isn’t exactly PG-friendly with a revolving hook that reels off various illicit substances atop a marching, warrior bass and distorted synth. The duo of Victor Magan & Franklin Dam collaborates for their VA contribution titled, ‘Locura’. A curious track that pulsates with kinetic vigour and features a side-scrolling arcade like melody that skips and dances in-between each verse and hook. ARTCORE regular CHRS abruptly changes the VA’s course with ‘Hot Rhythm’, an all-out audio assault of fast, chasmic techno that incorporates a breakbeat style loop and thudding old-school rave stabs.
 
With the VA drawing to a close AD7USTMENT follows the techno trail with ‘Seventeen’. Again, it’s a tough, rock-steady melody that chugs with an ethereal resonance amid a torrent of perpetual percussion. The eerily enigmatic TEUTON is another familiar name from ARTCORE-verse and his track ‘Gaya Calling’ epitomises his dramatic musical style. Beginning with a decisive drum-kick the beat ominously begins to develop by way of clamorous laser effects, delirious vocals and mechanized basslines. Wrapping up ‘ARTCORE ADE 2024 Vol.2’ are ANSBRO and C303 with ‘Ex Anima’. A war-cry of a beat that could soundtrack the final battle-scene of a dark space-opera with its stomping lead, hellish space pads and metallic sonic textures.

Björn Torwellen debuts on CLR with the ‘Binary Fate’ EP. It marks the first release of 2025 for Chris Liebing’s label.

Björn Torwellen’s ‘Binary Fate’ EP kickstarts CLR’s 2025 with three pounding Techno tracks 31st January 2025. From the razor-sharp percussion and raw bassline power in title track ‘Binary Fate’, to the cavernous dub hits and shadowy atmospheres of ‘Fear of the Unknown’, before closing on the mind-warping signals of ‘Lost in Transmission’ - Torwellen’s ‘Binary Fate’ is yet another supersized debut on the seminal CLR.

Following Björn Torwellen’s appearance on the CLR podcast in June 2024, the Cologne-based artist now definitively joins Chris Liebing’s label with the ‘Binary Fate’ three-tracker this January. With a career spanning over two decades, Björn is known for his discography on labels like De-Konstrukt, Nachtstrom Schallplatten, nonlinear systems, and now CLR.

Founded by influential techno lynchpin Chris Liebing in 1999 and reemerging in 2021 after a five-year hiatus, Create Learn Repeat (CLR) has hosted a range of artists like Shlomi Aber, Dubfire, Flug, Bjarki, DJ Dextro and more while also focusing on developing newer acts in the scene such as Risa Taniguchi, The Southern, and Klint.

Throughout 2024, Indira Paganotto’s game-changing label, ARTCORE Records dominated the electronic dance landscape. Aside from a trio of ground-breaking 2-part VAs plus numerous singles and EPs to further establish ARTCORE as a leading force in contemporary techno, the Psy-mama also took the label around the globe selling out shows across Europe, South America and Asia.

The monumental output of music ARTCORE has delivered since launching in 2022 is nothing short of astounding - and 2025 looks to be no different. For the first release of the new year, they venture into new territory, with a double EP format, from two different artists. Calling back Mexico’s Interactive Noise, after he released a collaboration EP ‘Dissociaxion’ in 2023, and his single ‘Ninja World’ on their OFF Sonar VA in 2024, merged with a single from ARTCORE newbies, the Brazilian duo Avan7 & Becker.

Interactive Noise opens the EP with ‘Tokyo Core’ it comes with a wave of trance-imfused bass stabs, orchestral fills, and ominous pads, to cultivate a moody yet euphoric atmosphere full of tension that grows with intensity as the beat develops.

Avan7 & Becker’s ARTCORE debut with ‘Meru’ kicks off with a rasping, guttural vocal sample reminiscent of an Aboriginal call. When the beat begins to rumble by way of fierce grooves and metallic synths, there’s a glorious clash of aesthetics when the tribal-like ambience felt at the offset is met head-on by ethereal melodics and cosmic, fast-paced percussion.

To round off the EP, Interactive Noise returns with ‘Warrior Inside Me’ which leads with an anime vocal sample in which the rhythm snugly intwines around. Climactic and stirring from the off, the melody melds galloping percussive elements and laser-strobe shots with marching string arrangements to close the release in a truly epic manner.
