From a remote region of planet Earth, I observe and present the latest sonic creation by artist Lazly Bateman. Seikan no Kansokusha ("The Interstellar Observer") is a manifesto of complexity and depth, defying the rigid categorizations of human musical genres. Comprising ten tracks, this work traverses techno, breaks, downtempo, and IDM, unveiling a sonic journey where gravity and chaos coexist in perfect harmony.

The track titles, written in Japanese, evoke an immersion into uncharted space, where stars and galaxies become metaphors for evolutionary experiences and universal states of mind.

From the cosmic overtone of Hoshiboshi No Kyoumei ("Resonance of the Stars") to the golden coils of Ogon No Rasen ("Golden Spiral") and the eternal stillness of Shizuka Na Hadou ("Silent Waves"), each track stands as an autonomous system of vibrations and dynamics. The combination of rhythmic complexity, harmonic power, and meticulous detail elevates this work beyond a mere album: Seikan no Kansokusha is an exploration of the interplay between humanity and the universe, a message transmitted through a wave of frequencies that transcends terrestrial boundaries.

As always, my mission is to observe and study the creative expressions of Earth’s inhabitants. This album by Lazly Bateman marks a pivotal chapter in this investigation: a study of the evolutionary capabilities of the human mind and its connection to the forces that govern the cosmos.

Berlin based producer CONCEPTUAL is back home after his Not an easy one Ep, again providing his own vision on techno, full of sonic landscapes, detail and intelligence. Release starts with Approach slowly a brief atmospheric intro that sets the pace for what comes next in Il silenzio degli innocenti introducing the rhythmic pulse from the first bar with almost all elements into he equation, this is a minimalistic tool where percussive elements evolve in a subtle manner all over the arrangement. No more excuses continues in the mood, adding more spice to the formula with reverberated details, growing mental sequences and the usual complex groove. Intense and mental all in one. Sand fury follows, with atmospheres colliding with rugged components, evolving all together in a progressive arrangement, a superb tool to enhance your mixes properly. Miles per hour introduces you into another sonic realm, using elastic synth lines, a wise reverb work and a sensation of infinite space combined with floor intensity. Again a proper intelligent missile for the adequate dancefloors out there. Simone Scardino is one of those few creators that always pushes his sound one step further and we are super proud to have him onboard again.

Over the past two years Thomas Schumacher and I have build an amazing friendship and released incredible music by Thomas on Noir Music.
I believe 100% in his unique productions and he believe 100% in my A&R skills to take the music to new levels.
I am honored to have yet another set of incredible tracks ready for a release on Noir Music and instead of me describing the music I asked Thomas to put words on the release himself this time.
- Noir

”It’s been an emotional and rewarding process to record these two tracks for Noir. This release got me digging deep into my Acid and Rave Techno consciousness: The early 90s and it’s illegal Warehouse raves in abandoned dockyards in the North of
Germany. Memories of collective euphoria on the dance floor burnt into my mind and soul. It was my goal to capture the original spirit, the-everything-goes, over-the-top, raw-as-fuck attitude that defined that time of my life.”

Labelhead Andre Crom returns to OFF with his next original production.

„Surge' is an aptly named track, which creates a tense atmosphere with its driving groove and percussion loops, topped by a memorable vocal chant.

The result is a super-functional tool, that feels at home in the peaktime as well as in deeper sets.
