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.

Belgium’s Peter Van Hoesen lands on Reclaim Your City for ‘Prime Directive’, Van Hoesen’s first solo release since 2023 and the successor to his 2024 album, ‘Towards the Center of Time and Surrounded by Spirits’.

Peter Van Hoesen’s ‘Prime Directive’ starts with ‘Definition by Absence’, a furnace-hot mix of abstract, hi-octane rhythm. The track begins a trip that takes us through undulating, fiery synthlines whose patterns coalesce and move in and out of synchronicity. ‘Variables Edit 1’ is next, whirling and swirling like a menacing swarm, its machine-like drums set against stellar winds.

On the B-side, the title track of Peter Van Hoesen’s ‘Prime Directive’ evokes pure dancefloor dystopia. It’s arrhythmic, dark, and teeming with monsters and molten clocks, culminating in a surreal track with metronome-like sound keeping pace. Closing ‘Prime Directive’, Van Hoesen’s innate feel for tweaky sounds over relentless drum-funk remains apparent in ‘Morphology’. Here, fearless robotic creatures communicate through unidentifiable signals and enthral the listener. With ‘Prime Directive’ on the Dutch Reclaim Your City, Van Hoesen continues to push the boundaries of contemporary Techno through cutting-edge experimentalism.

Time To Express and Center 91 label boss Peter Van Hoesen's take on visceral techno has found a home on labels like Tresor, Editions Mego, Archives Intérieures, Konstrukt and Stroboscopic Artefact. The Belgian artist, now based out of Vietnam, operates exclusively as a live act and is also known for his collaborations with AtomTM as SYNC and as Sendai with Yves De Mey.

*This new four-track epic from Peter van Hoesen comes draped in a fine piece of artwork courtesy of Atact and pressed according to our standards in 180g audiophile quality, so you get to experience the Belgian master's chiselled sound design in all its glory.

For our 20th episode of materiacast series, we're delighted to have Parisian DJ Ellicam.

She's part of a new generation of French artists who draw their inspiration from stripped-down, definitively hypnotic techno.
Ellicam shapes her mixes through an architectural vision by seeing tracks as textures. Her palette combines percussive and atmospheric tracks in order to take her listener on a mental journey. 

This mix draws the landscape for a trip through hypnotic techno by exploring sharp and immersive tracks.

Enjoy!

Duplicity 135 | @joeystella

We are super excited to present the 135th episode featuring @01366 founder @joeystella!

Barcelona-based Joey Stella. Resident and founder of the influential collective 01366.
Originally from Manchester (UK), historically a home for techno and all things music. Stella is a diverse selector focusing on deep and intelligent rhythms; his DJ sets can be described as powerful with rolling grooves and hypnotic spells found throughout.

Developing his taste as a raver in the north west, with family members and a close circle well embedded in the local club and rave scene - Joey naturally fell into throwing parties as soon as he was old enough to do so. Now with years of experience, this life really came to the fore after moving to Barcelona, where he began promoting illegal loft and warehouse parties, which evolved into the multi-city 01366 label and event brand, that he co-manages today.

As usual, turn up the volume and enjoy the mix!
