Tresor resident DJs LNS and DJ Sotofett have for some years been developing a style at the club's Globus floor, and their new EP is a die cut of exactly the classic techno, electro, and house music they play. Here are no productions drenched in reverb, no hi-fi obsessions or generic algorithmic patterns – this is Globus Trax, the duo's third release on Tresor Records, four tracks consisting of real TR-909 workouts, rude and driving basslines, live runs through the mixing desk, and a Blake Baxter cover version with LNS on vocals. 
 
LNS & DJ Sotofett programmed an EP to perfectly fit their warehouse style of DJing, bringing out colour and variation in a spectrum more similar to a club compilation than a dogmatically reduced concept. With a single repeated vocal sample, Globus Trax opens bombastically with ClickClickClick, a dub-infused UK garage house track anyone in the world can easily describe in the course of a second.
 
Following this comes Gearbox which is a hefty slab of big room electro featuring a centerpiece arpeggio and the warmest harmonic pads on the EP's four tracks, which not-so-subtly makes reference to the pioneering band that shares a name with Globus and Tresor's home, the Kraftwerk. 
 
The house vibe returns on Destination 909, which is nothing but a manifesto for the TR-909, where the beloved drum machine's jacking beats meet galactic strings and synthetic bass, only to be ripped apart in a slamming break that sees the machine take centre stage as it cuts in-and-out of the mix, again a clear nod to the duo's sets in the club.
 
LNS steps up on vocal duties and DJ Sotofett keeps the 909 running for their final cut, taking a deeper dive into the realms of classic techno and paying tribute to "The Prince of Techno" Blake Baxter by covering his Reach Out originally released on Tresor Records in 1995.
 
The 12" was cut by DJ Sotofett himself at Manmade Mastering, where he resurrects the lost art of late-90s loud cuts with sonic presence and punch, optimal for the club-focused 12" format, and is the first to come in the new Tresor Sleeve, boasting an embossed logo on either side.

Selector Session – Kvanchi [SSKI004]

Selector Session serisinin bu haftaki konuğu, komşu ülkemiz Gürcistan’dan dostumuz Kvanchi. 

Bassiani’nin resident DJ’i ve Bassiani Records’un label manager’ı olarak sahnenin merkezindeki yerini koruyan Kvanchi, bu kayıtta arşivinin trippy ve trance etkili parçalarına yöneliyor. 

Minimal groove’larla örülü, sade ama derin yapılı bu set, dinleyiciyi hipnotik bir ses dünyasına davet ediyor.

Tiflis’te yükselen protestoların gölgesinde, Kvanchi bu seti hem sahnede hem de toplumsal alanda sesini duyuran bir sanatçı olarak sunuyor. 

-----

This week’s Selector Session features our good friend Kvanchi from our neighboring country, Georgia. 

A resident of the iconic Bassiani and label manager at Bassiani Records, Kvanchi dives into the more trancey and trippy corners of his collection. 

Built around minimal grooves and stripped-down rhythms, the set delivers a hypnotic, carefully crafted journey through his distinct sonic world.

Recorded in the midst of ongoing protests in Tbilisi, this mix arrives with quiet weight — a reminder of how music and resistance often move side by side.
