After a strong first release on Fuse Imprint with ‘The Wall’, resident Phara returns to his home base for a mirage of introspective tracks. Furthering his research of emotive club music, ‘Soft Glow, Fierce Light’ seems more than appropriately named. Shimmering melodies, swinging rhythms, and a comforting ambiance, Phara proves that his constantly evolving musical persona and relationship with the Brussels club are built to last.
 
Beginning with ‘Unfold’, the Belgium-native sets the board with a warm introduction. Reminiscent of his recent endeavor as In Glass, a balance is struck between the slower tempo techno of his secondary alias and the higher club energy that he’s been known to bring as Phara. Steady at first, filters open wide half way through the track to ensure maximum euphoria off or on the dance floor. ‘Flow’ follows in suit and here the producer keeps the level constant and tense with intricate melodic design. A steady groove with blossoming synth lines make ‘Flow’ a beauty to witness unravel. Warm chord stabs make for a nostalgic EP and shows once more that the seasoned producer frequently enjoys prioritizing emotion over drive. Flipping the vinyl to the other side, ‘Wave to Wave’ points a finger to all things dub, even a discrete appreciation of house music, through the harmony of his keys to the sound design of his square bass, and its common borders with techno. Juggling in snare rolls and rides throughout, Phara sets the tone with a soothing piece of work for lovers of the eyes-closed genre. To conclude, ’Solitude’ brings a polished vintage effect to the project that ‘Wave to Wave’ introduced, this time with heightened intensity worthy of a set closer. Punchy stabs make this a particularly extraverted track, fitting into almost any record bag - Room 01 or Motion Room friendly. Thundering claps over an electric melody, these kinds of tracks aren’t new to Phara. Pouring soul into his tracks, Phara proves once again to be a truly central artist in developing the Fuse sound and continuing his stylistic journey.

FUSE07 • Phara - Soft Glow, Fierce Light

If one had to describe Kaltblume's music with three words, they would be without hesitation: sharp, bleak and voluptuous.
Deeply rooted in bouncy and intricate rhythmic structures, his productions also tend to explore atypical, richer harmonics and textures.
Behind the booth, his infectious energy reflects the warm, symbiotic atmosphere he continually seeks to create. Thumping tribal drums and groovy sequences meet uncanny, sometimes chaotic musical phrases.
Backed by a host of headliners, Kaltblume is an artist to watch, gradually imposing his style on the underground techno scene.
For this podcast, he’s delivered a powerful set featuring several of his unreleased tracks, offering a glimpse into his evolving sonic universe and what lies ahead.

REIGNDANCE 001 – 404

The first step of REIGNDANCE is built on rhythm — the raw language of percussion. 404 weaves syncopated grooves, polyrhythmic layers, and primal drum patterns into a hypnotic flow that strips techno down to its essence.

Every element is driven by pulse and tension: beats that stagger, collide, and realign, creating forward momentum through the unexpected. This is dance as ritual, rhythm as ceremony — an initiation into the deeper currents of groove.

REIGNDANCE 001 is where the pattern begins.

Co-founder / Resident AИTIИOM

Whether dark themes, melancholy melodies or powerful build-ups. Whether the rhythms are groovy, syncopated or surgically cut, PÆTROS explores music as a whole.

One day he'll offer you an energetic set with resolutely UK influences, the next he'll take you into a primal trance drawing its energy from the industrial universe. 
Or maybe he'll do both.

The essence of his cross-genre project is to share the diversity of his musical universe.
