BYØRN - Shivaya [No Mercy]

Pre-save: https://www.beatport.com/release/ragnarok/4536061

EXHALE welcomes Belgian prodigy BYØRN to the family, bringing a unique blend of hard techno, ethereal, and cinematic influences. With acclaimed releases on labels like Taapion, Etruria Beat, No Mercy, and Revised Records, Antwerp-based BYØRN has quickly solidified his presence as a rising star in the industry and is now ready for his debut on EXHALE with an explosive release.
’Ragnarok‘ features three tracks showcasing BYØRN's innovative fusion of styles and relentless drive. The title track starts the journey, an anthem with epic fantasy melodies and a cinematic break that envelops listeners in its energetic thunderous vibe. The pace intensifies with 'Release Yourself' a deep dive into cinematic euphoria with resonating brass and angelic melodies. A climactic vocal invites you to "release yourself in the unknown" before a powerful drop showcases BYØRN's mastery of dynamic soundscapes, layered synths, and finely crafted transitions. Rounding out the release, 'Source' melds a heavy techno groove infused with cinematic SFX and a thick acidbassline, building up to a choir-enhanced break that explodes into a transcendent blend of melody and emotion.

Release: 26th July 2024

It’s almost impossible to believe that a label with so much international notoriety is still within its first ten releases. Still, Belgian Techno protagonist Amelie Lens’ EXHALE imprint is set to make even more noise with its ninth release. Following a spate of well-received singles from Amelie and the latest offering from fellow Antwerp native BYØRN, EXHALE prepares itself for an impressive fifth VA, featuring 14 selected cuts from 16 artists in total. A slew of internationally recognised names and rising new-age talent, welcoming back some familiar faces alongside some debutants, including two collaboration tracks.

Led by Amelie Lens’ ‘Underneath The Strobelights’, featuring her trademark vocals she paves the way for EXHALE VA005. Fellow Antwerp local NOVAH debuts on the label, after her notable b2b sets with BYØRN of late, her track ‘Inner Odyssey’ is followed by VENTUR’s ‘Let It Kick’, a track that lives up to its name. Young Irishman Luciid also makes his first appearance with the epic cut ‘Era Of Us’. BYØRN is back with another massive offering in ‘Our Destiny’, followed by SWART, who also returns with ‘Extazy’ a hard hitting pacy vocal peak timer. Teletech resident Alex Farell makes his debut alongside Farrago, in their first collab together on ‘All Systems Go’, with its spoken vocals and pummelling bass, before French producer ARDL at just 21 debuts with ‘Hyperactive’, with his focus on raw sounding techno.

Another duo of back-to-back debuts sees the elusive FLKN drop ‘Rumble’, influenced by 303 sounds, he makes things dark and distorted. UK-based Aaron Hibell with the vampiric ‘1999’, its bouncy fast bass it makes it the grooviest techno track of the VA. Berliner Afem Syko’s known for his unpredictable, vibrant sets offer his track ‘Slingshot’, backed up by returning American powerhouse and Terra Novae label founder Chemtrailz who become loved for his trance-inducing techno hybrid sound, teams up alongside Hani with their track ‘Goddessblood’. Italy’s Rian Wood comes in hot with penultimate cut ‘Anima’, as he expresses his passion for music through hard techno, neo rave and old school influences. Closing off the colossal VA is French talent, La Kajofol who recently released on ARTCORE. She seals the release with the irresistibly signature ‘Black Rhapsody’. Her music brings a unique style of her own which she calls ‘Mystical Techno’, infusing hypnotism into psytrance and techno with her eerie vocals.

Championing the diversity of the modern-day techno paradigm, EXHALE’s latest VA dips its toe into a myriad of genres, with nods to psytrance, breakbeat, hardstyle, classical and even drum & bass across thirteen freakishly heavy dancefloor-primed stompers. It’s everything you’d want from a release that showcases artistry in its simplest form.
