About:
Argentine-born, Barcelona-based producer Martin Cozar returns to Kiosk ID with his four-tracker ‘My Mind.’ Building on the funky modernism of Resilience—his split EP with Gespona—and a commanding peak-time remix for Manucho’s Idea Reset, Martin Cozar now steps fully into the spotlight with a solo EP that tightens his artistic identity. My Mind delivers razor-sharp groove work, stripped futurism, and a captivating brand of dancefloor energy that shines through inventiveness and viscerality.

Opening track ‘1977’ unfolds like a widescreen dreamscape, with suspended fields of synths arcing over a warmly booming, long-tailed sub-bass. Heaving synth sweeps, melodically intricate arpeggios, and fluttering square waves paint a morphing, hypnotic canvas that floats across the periphery. Deeply meditative, but suited for the almost-peak-time with a throbbing groove and dynamic sub-bass, 1977 is a slow-burning journey that wraps warmly arcing, spaced out melodics around a tight rhythmic core.

‘My Mind’ turns the focus to the floor. Funky and razor-sharp in its sophisticated modernity with stripped-to-the-bone drum structures, the title track channels Martin Cozar’s retro-futurist edge through ominously
squelching basslines and pulsing stabs, arranged in a spacious, expertly crafted, and darkly oscillating Indie Dance framework. Every element clicks into place, yielding a high-voltage groove that radiates raw, physical
energy: stripped-down machine funk with a dark, circuit-bent twist.

With ‘Niksen,’ Martin Cozar crafts an eclectic groover that cycles effortlessly through percussive moods. Crackling with icy atmospherics one moment and sweltering in hazy Western guitars the next, Niksen traverses shifting textures anchored in a stripped lead theme that transforms the tracks’ dynamic soundscapes into pure dancefloor class.

Closing cut ‘Lights Out’ dives into grungier, more tactile territory. Shuffling, blown-out acoustic drums and mangled guitars collide with a peevish lead synth that escalates through morphing iterations, finally exploding into bursts of erupting electricity. Raw and groove-heavy, Lights Out channels untethered energy into a gritty, kinetic framework—tech’n’roll with a beautifully organic feel.

Across ‘My Mind,’ Martin Cozar delivers four distinct tracks—each a self-contained microcosm of motion across gritty floor energy, razor-sharp Indie Dance, and booming after-hour rollers. The result is a hypnotic,
meticulously engineered suite that feels both instinctive and deliberate, and succeeds in walking the fine line between the physical and cerebral demands of the dancefloor.

Laut & Luise is a Music Lovers Club from Berlin && Cologne

Laut & Luise releases carefully selected music on vinyl, individually touched and underlined by a special and characteristic artwork in order to give back at least some love.

Luise herself provides dance music, calm and dubby, still with a definite focus on house and techno.

Aside from the main label, our younger imprint Luettje Luise is meant to be a playground for sounds beyond genres and borders, trying to stay open-minded like daddy Ernst Jandl was.

What is the opposite of little? Lost. A new little sub by Laut & Luise, limited to nothing but a digital playback device and labeled with a mouse crafted artwork. Lost in Luise, for the digital natives and the internet explorers.

Hey, Gareth here, I'm a graphic designer who start designing for clubs, parties, and labels in the late 90s. Back then, mix CDs were the holy grail of both design and music. I loved them.

But I wasn't the only one, mix cds were the soundtracks of our nights, our days, our afterparties and lives, for everyone. Yet in today's internet age, the art form has been lost (or just changed) to 2-3 hour online mixes and streaming videos, which just don't create the same magic your CD collection did. Just 60 minutes of music and incredible artwork.

The Classic Mix CD Series celebrates these discs, their soundtrack, their box art and your memories. We hope you enjoy it.

Also, we try to help you find and buy them again by sharing Discogs links on all featured CDs and or direct links to labels where possible.

* We fully support labels and artists. If any disc creates a copyrighting issue let me know and it will be immediately removed.

About Gareth:
Digital creative type, gamer, music lover and occasional DJ. Currently living between Dubai & Seoul after setting sail from Sunderland in 2010. As a young designer, club and music culture was the driving force for his work, producing artwork for local club nights and record labels in the North East of England. In particular, DJ mix cds and their packaging were always his 'holy grail of design', especially those from Renaissance, Global Underground and Good Looking Records. It's a pleasure to share these discs back with people and they still influence our tastes to this day. 

For any CD recommendations, bookings, mixes or feedback you can catch me as @asapgareth on Instagram. Or you can check our my design work at www.acid.works
