You Came Real Close

PAULUM Records proudly presents the third and final chapter of our first-ever compilation series: PAULUM011 VOL. 3, out August 21, 2025.

With four carefully selected contributions, this release completes the trilogy and highlights the international spirit and close-knit community at the heart of Paulum. Each artist brings their own distinctive voice, together shaping a powerful conclusion to this landmark project.

Caren Callas, based in Berlin, is one of the city’s rising female DJs, currently making waves on the festival circuit. With this track—one of her first productions—she marks the exciting beginning of her journey as a producer. Fresh, confident, and full of energy, it’s a glimpse of what’s to come.

From the north of the UK, Glenn Storey returns to Paulum after his well-received solo EP. A warm and dedicated producer, Glenn is also the founder of Music_for_no_one and has released on respected outlets such as OGE. His contribution here reflects the subtlety and groove that define his work, further cementing his role in the underground scene.

Rangø, hailing from Kiel, is not only a close friend of label founder Casimir von Oettingen but also his partner in running Bladehouse Records. Already known for his solo EP on Paulum, Rangø comes back with his unmistakable signature sound—deeply textured, atmospheric, and rhythmically precise.

Closing VOL. 3 is Daniel Meister from Budapest, a prolific figure in the minimal house community. Having previously released his own EP on Paulum, Daniel is widely recognized for his output on some of the most influential underground labels. His track here continues to showcase his consistency, quality, and timeless approach to production.

With VOL. 3, the Paulum Records compilation series reaches its finale—three volumes, twelve artists, seven countries, and one shared vision: celebrating minimal and house music at its most authentic.

Enjoy the groove!

Long time channel pals, "Who’s Susan" have kindly chucked a lovely DJ Windows XP jam our way from their brand new bi-polar-esque titled EP, "Sometimes I Feel Happy, Sometimes Sad" - I guess operating systems do have feelings after all. After making serious waves off the back of their last release on DJ Haus' imprint, E-Beamz; the Amsterdam duo's second offering demonstrates another, perhaps more considered facet to their production ability - yet retaining their trademarked raw stonk.

Lots of questions are still left to be answered, though. Who really is Susan? Maybe ‘it’ could have been me? At the end of it all though, who cares. Let your synapses turn around the infinite situations, with infinitesimal different angles round and round your brain- what’s gone is gone. Dust to dust.  Stare into the abyss, sink into your cocoon, let the bass drum thud in the back of your throat, the background synths wrap over you, crescendoing into the most alleviating rush. Pretty blissful stuff and certainly not just another jovial 'DJ' pseudonym.

Alas, the first run of the wonderfully well-received and expertly curated origami series from Melbourne-based Kyoku Records is coming to an end. However, before moving on to new endeavours, we're going to be graced with one last appearance from the orizuru, hachidori, oumu and hakucho, that is, the paper crane, the hummingbird, the parrot and the swan. The aptly titled "Odoru Tori" EP which translates to "Dancing Birds" is the first of its kind various artists compilation for the Australian imprint, featuring the same group of producers who were at the helm for each of the label’s solo releases to date. Making their return are Dorsi Plantar, Long Island Sound, Sune, and Ethyène (alongside Folamour and Marc Bianco).

You may find the artwork for today's premiere familiar, and that is because the parrot has already made an appearance both for Kyoku and for Bolting Bits in the form of a premiere of Long Island Sound's Delusions from their solo "Last Place You Look" EP released almost exactly a year ago. We're more than happy to follow that one up with today's feature, Ease In, the B1 on the forthcoming VA compilation. The Irish duo employ a familiar recipe here, finding another catchy vocal hook and intricately weaving it in along with other samples into an engaging arrangement that not only makes you want to listen but more importantly makes you want to dance as well. The main string sample lends a dreamy character to the song while the tougher drums and groovy bassline pleasantly contradict it. Pair all of the above with their adept synth work and you've got yourself another surefire hit.As always, this one comes highly recommended and will be vinyl only, so be sure to get your copy at Juno.

'Mortal Strike' @land-of-dance-records is an immersion into cold acidic landscapes, the pulses omitted from the TB-303 teleport the listener into a frenzied state, presenting a well balanced mix of EBM chords, a subtle techno kick and new wave excursions.

St. Theodore - Mortal Strike [Land Of Dance]

She walked with purpose and principle, her head held high with dignity and damn right. The walkway was packed during rush hour with tourists hustling to take pictures and anxious business people wandering back and forth hurriedly. Each of them looked more "important" than the last and each had a sense of unrivalled urgency as if to indicate that their next meeting was far more important than yours. Gigi didn't care for the likes of their haste, she walked slowly but surely and with delicate precision. 

Roza Terenzi is set to release a new EP on Kalahari Oyster Cult following the success of her acclaimed first on Good Company Records. This time she draws for the breaks and delivers a fierce statement of intent.
