Various Production

Forged in the cohesion labs of Indianapolis, the XK3 EP by producer D. Strange dives into the metallic underworld of alienated shadows to create 5 icy acid electro cuts.

The submerged acid-tinged opener, ‘Sonic Recoil,’ ascends with a snarling pathos of trap hats that pierce through the looming fog of the club. ‘Negative Center’ haunts in cunning dexterity and grooves with a jacking pace of brooding momentum. Somewhere in the maze of resonance droplets, cascading hats, and the ominous synth pads, the track “A Black Liquid Filled My Lungs” hypnotizes in its atmospheric acid electro hybrid. Right out of the gate, the self-titled track ‘XK3’ punishes with off-beat synth shards and glitchy, mechanical snares that snap in anthemic propulsion. While ‘Ghost of Kashif’ weaves itself in esoteric, yet evocative, soundscapes with club menacing fashion. Rounding out the release, fellow Indianapolis producer Noncompliant contributes a cruel electro sub-heating take of ‘XK3,’ to warm the boreal tips of the EP.

5 Mag Premiere - Beloved techno producer and DJ @noncompliant1 has announced the release of Momentum Shift, the debut EP from her new label Giant Arm, out September 7 2023.

Giant Arm is designed to be a showcase for Noncompliant's "signature style of raw, uncompromising techno." Momentum Shift features four tracks that tick every box on that checklist — the rhythmic, radical and raw sound of Midwest techno crafted by one of our most essential artists. 

5 Mag is premiering the lead track from Momentum Shift. "Symptom Onset," like many Noncompliant tracks, doesn't "start" as much as it "warms up," like a great thermal engine gradually filling the room with heat, frenzy, sound and fury. Give it a listen and some love if you like it 👏

🎙 Noncompliant - Raised in small-town Indiana on a musical diet of 80s synth pop and punk rock, Noncompliant soon found barnyard raves and warehouse techno parties and (as DJ Shiva) quickly became a fixture of the fabled 90s Midwest USA rave scene. Now, almost three decades and a name change later, she is at the top of her techno game. She was recognized as one of Mixmag's Top 20 Breakthrough DJs in 2017 and has performed at renowned venues like Berghain and Tresor in Berlin, Smartbar in Chicago, and DeSchool in Amsterdam. She has also appeared at festivals such as Unsound and Movement Detroit.  Noncompliant's releases and remixes on labels like Valence, Flash, Outerworld, and Dark Entries have made waves in the global music scene, with her track "Women's Work" even landing on Fiedel's official Berghain 08 mix and his label Fiedeltwo. In 2023, she is launching her own label called Giant Arm, which features her signature style of raw, uncompromising techno.

​Parisian DJ and producer DJ Deep has enlisted a cast of talented producers to remix four tracks from his ‘Cuts’ release series, featuring Ben Sims transforming ‘Stressin’ with a relentless techno motif.

Having launched the ‘Cuts’ release series on his Deeply Rooted imprint in 2014, DJ Deep now breathes new life into the material via a new remix pack titled ‘DJ Deep Cuts Remixes Vol.1’. Tapping Ben Sims to grace the release was a clear choice, as he’s been a driving force in the techno community for nearly two decades with releases on Drumcode, Karlovak and his own labels, Hardgroove and Theory Recordings.

‘Stressin (Ben Sims Remix)’ sees the UK producer inject energy into the otherwise stripped-back nature of the original, delivering an enveloping techno essence primed for peak moments on the dancefloor. Metallic synths compliment the mesmerizing and high-octane percussion as a rolling bass-line lays the foundation.

‘DJ Deep Cuts Remixes Vol.1’ is set for release in June and also features remixes by Mr. G, Roman Poncet and Steve Rachmad.

This classic, originally released on the legendary Black Nation Records, is a personal favorite of mine. That's why I was stoked to be asked to turn in a remix. Pressure? Yep. But I had fun and I think I made a nice jam that will pound a dancefloor (or a home system) quite nicely.
