The Moroccan Techno label SOTOR - سطور is pleased to present you the new release SOT06.

Meaning "lines" in the arabic language, SOTOR shows here its interest in the various shades of Techno.

Two heavyweights of modern techno, Kmyle and Ramon Tapia, join forces to write the sixth lines of the Sotor’s Story in addition of two powerful remixes from Moteka & Exos. Expression EP, is a five-track journey that blurs the line between precision and emotion, groove and gravity.

The title track, “Expression,” opens the EP with unrelenting drive. Its pulsating low-end, rolling groove, and haunting synths create a sense of forward motion that feels alive — constantly shifting, evolving, and breathing. There’s a hypnotic elegance beneath its toughness; a perfect reflection of the duo’s ability to merge function and feeling into one piece of art built for the dance floor.

Next comes “Mental Space,” a more cerebral affair that dives deep into metallic rhythms, resonant stabs, and spacey atmospheres. The track feels like a descent into the mind’s darker corners — intense yet strangely liberating, designed to shake big systems while keeping the listener mentally suspended in its groove and flow.

“Singularity” closes the trio of originals on a more introspective note. Here, the textures open up, and subtle melodic elements shine through the haze of mechanical percussion and deep sub-pressure. It’s a journey inward — a moment of reflection amid the raw power, showing the emotional range both artists bring to the table.

The remix from Moteka takes “Mental Space” into new terrain. It was created with the original groove of the track in mind. The goal was to offer a fresh perspective with a drier, rawer sound while preserving the groove and key sonic elements of the original. I loaded some of the lead stems into the Bitwig sampler and experimented with them, then recorded an analog bass fitting the groove using my external synths, and built the track around that foundation.

Exos, known for his deep and dub-infused signature, delivers a breathtaking version of “Mental Space.” His remix dissolves the edges, pushing the track into a spacious, echo-laden journey that drifts between physical and ethereal realms — pure hypnotic techno for those who love the deeper side of sound.

With Expression EP, Kmyle and Ramon Tapia deliver a statement of intent — five tracks that reflect the power of collaboration, the depth of craftsmanship, and the timeless energy that defines raw, deep techno. Each piece stands strong on its own yet fits perfectly within a larger sonic narrative: tension, emotion, and groove, expressed through pure, uncompromising sound.

PARADOX PODCAST #165 -- HORACIO CRUZ

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to welcome DJ and producer from Belgium : BORDER ONE (Token / KEY Vinyl / SK_Eleven).

Hailing from Belgium, Border One has amassed an irrefutable reputation in his home country and beyond since the release of his first 12-inch record in 2015. Between a fascination for sound discovery through the use of his modular synthesizer and his loyalty to the classic club rhythms, Border One’s style serves as a swiss-army knife for promoters and DJ’s on an international level.

With a self description expressing a priority to make the crowd move, his music does not fall short of its intention. Forward thinking in its conception rendered highly functional in its implementation, Border One’s music finds middle ground in an increasingly polarized musical climate for the genre; whether it be through his selection as a DJ or his technicality as a producer. Considering this, his release catalogue seems only appropriate. He has released EP’s on Knowledge Imprint, Setaoc Masse’s SK-X, his own Border One Records, Freddy K’s KEY vinyl imprint, and the infamous Token Records to name a few.

PARADOX PODCAST #179 -- BORDER ONE

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to host such an iconic figure from the Dutch Techno scene : SANDRIEN.

Amsterdam’s Sandrien is known for her versatile take on techno. From deep and atmospheric to high-energy breaks and acid; her dynamic track selection has made her a dance floor favourite in her hometown and beyond. With over twenty years in the game, there are hardly any iconic clubs and festivals Sandrien has not played. She has graced the stages of Lowlands Festival, Awakenings, Dekmantel and Draaimolen in The Netherlands, Norway’s Monument, Rainbow Disco Club in Japan and the club booths of Berlin’s Berghain, Bassiani in Tbilisi, Basement NY, Tunnel Pereira and Womb in Tokyo.

In Amsterdam, she used to be a resident of De School and its predecessor Trouw. The latter was home to Sandrien’s own techno club nights ‘Imprint’, through which she hosted a variety of national and international artists including Ben Sims, DVS1, Marcel Dettman, Oscar Mulero, Peter van Hoesen and Rødhåd. In addition, she was one of the founders of the city’s long-running LGBTQIA+ event series IsBurning.

For years, Sandrien spent her weekdays working in Amsterdam’s renowned record stores Rush Hour and Killacutz. This speaks to the imagination of her incredible record collection and musical knowledge. Her extensive library is precisely why she’s a champion of playing longer DJ sets, during which she always manages to build a solid bridge between old-school techno, and adventurous fresh sounds. Sandrien’s experience and ability to adapt to any setting also shows in her love for playing back-to-back with other artists, including DJ Nobu, Ben Sims and Philippa Pacho.

Occasionally, she likes to give the more house-leaning part of her collection a spin; high energy and acidic basslines woven together by the same solid groove her techno sets are known for.

PARADOX PODCAST #181 -- SANDRIEN

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to welcome DJ, producer & MindTrip  label boss : PFIRTER.

For the past twenty years, Argentinian-born, Barcelona-based artist Juan Pablo Pfirter has been a driving force behind a sound that's alternately steely, dark, and uplifting, remaining true to the founding principles of techno while infusing it with his avant-garde touch.

Since his early days, whether through DJing, producing, or as a label owner, Pfirter has demonstrated his talent with focus and style. He's left his mark on esteemed labels like CLR, Figure, Mord, and Stroboscopic Artefacts with select singles, while headlining renowned electronic music venues and events such as Berghain, Tresor, Concrete, Awakenings, and Time Warp. Since his first European tour in 2005, Juan Pablo has tirelessly shaped one of the most distinctive sounds in contemporary electronic music, blending stadium-sized kicks with textured organic elements and hypnotic sub-bass motifs that remain captivating after countless listens. 

In 2006, Pfirter launched his own imprint, MindTrip, which has since become a prominent fixture in the techno landscape. The label serves not only as a platform for his own productions but also for those of his close friends and collaborators, including luminaries such as Flug, Kashpitzky, Nørbak, Stanislav Tolkachev, Dold, and more. Additionally, MindTrip has thrived through its monthly podcast series, featuring acclaimed artists like Angel Molina, Setaoc Mass, and Amotik, each presenting an hour of music that embodies the ethos of the label. 

Having released over 50 club-oriented records, Pfirter ventured into the realm of albums with 2019's "The Empty Space," offering a panoramic view of the subtle intricacies and emotional depth of his craft. His sophomore album, "Altered States," further explores the nuances and expressive possibilities within techno, balancing club-focused realities with introspective, psychoactive elements deeply rooted in the genre's tradition. 

Continuing to bridge the gap between the visceral and the cerebral, Pfirter consistently delivers compelling works that resonate long after the last strobe light fades. While his singles dominate specialist charts, the depth of his compositions lingers in the minds of listeners long after the club doors close. In Pfirter's hands, darkness becomes oddly comforting, inviting listeners into his unique sonic universe.

PARADOX PODCAST #186 -- KASHPITZKY

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to host such an iconic figure from the US Techno scene : TRUNCATE (Truncate, Ovum, BluePrint, CLR).

After being introduced to electronic music back in the early 90's in Los Angeles, a teenage David Flores was hooked. He started DJing across Southern California on the DIY warehouses, desert, and rave circuit. His style then was as varied as the local scene - a myriad of sounds ranging from house to acid to techno to hardcore. After a few years solely DJing, he began releasing original music under the moniker Audio Injection, which landed on labels such as Monoid, Stimulus, 4 Track & LA label Droid Recordings. His association with Droid Behavior began in 2003 and continues today as resident at the infamous and internationally acclaimed Interface event series alongside Drumcell and Raiz.

In early 2011, he started the project 'Truncate' to focus on the deeper, raw side of techno. His Truncate releases have been gain critical acclaim from world class underground talent such as Modeselektor, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Chris Liebing, Speedy J, DVS1, Luke Slater, Ben Sims, Josh Wink, East Everything, Jooris Voorn, and many more. Since then, he has provided remixes for artists across the musical spectrum including Kink! for Pets Recordings, Slam for Soma, and Trus’me for Prime Numbers. He has also released original tracks on 50 Weapons and on Ultramajic as a collaboration with Jimmy Edgar.

A rigorous international tour schedule has followed, including included stops at the most prestigious venues and events, including Berghain in Berlin, Fabric in London, Concrete in Paris, The Movement Festival in Detroit, Womb in Tokyo, Dimensions Festival in Croatia, Awakenings in Amsterdam and Output in New York.  
 
With his heavy remix, production and touring schedule there is still no slowing down for David. He continues to shape an evolving sound and to champion the Los Angeles underground.

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to welcome Berlin-based DJ & producer : KWARTZ (Pole Group / SK_Eleven).

Kwartz is the stage name of Mario Campos, born in Madrid in 1989 and now based in Berlin.

In late 2011 and after publishing several EP’s in different international labels, Kwartz's productions began to draw the attention of the leading names in the international scene, so in 2013 Exium released a split EP with him called Fenomen, which was his first release on vinyl.

In late 2013 Kwartz joined PoleGroup and became part of the booking roster of the label commanded by Oscar Mulero, where he began to release his works regularly. In addition to PoleGroup, his tracks have appeared in several of the most important international labels, such as 47 (Tommy Four Seven’s label), Mord Records, Semantica, Horo or Warm Up Recordings.

2016 brings the launch of his own label: Order&Devotion, where he will release those of his works which move between dark atmospheres and deep and visceral sounds, all surrounded by rhythms designed for the dance floor.

His sets could be described with three words: raw, mental and groovy, in which he pushes the dancefloor to a constantly state of tension.

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to welcome British-New Zealand DJ, producer : KEEPSAKES

Keepsakes, the alias of British-New Zealand producer and DJ James Barrett, has been a strong and distinctive voice in techno since rising to fame through his Stygian Concrete Works and Weapons Grade Manic EPs back in 2014. Since then he has showcased his powerful and menacing, yet often cheeky and playful, productions on influential labels including Boys Noize Records, Turbo Recordings, KAOS/OAKS, Perc Trax, South London Analogue Material, MORD, and Earwiggle.

Furthermore, he founded the Haven club night alongside Jaded Nineties Raver in Tāmaki Maraukau, Aotearoa (Auckland, New Zealand) in 2015 - aiming to introduce clubbers to the experimental and harder side of techno in a city completely devoid of this music. In 2018 Haven also expanded into a vinyl-focused record label - going on to release many leading international artists including VTSS, Tommy Holohan, New Frames, Peder Mannerfelt, Ayarcana, Ansome, and Ryan James Ford, as well as becoming the main home for Barrett’s own productions.

Now located in Ōtautahi, Aotearoa (Christchurch, New Zealand) - following several years living in Berlin hitting the European club circuit - he is focused on bringing his tough and eclectic sound to dance floors worldwide, with regular appearances at international techno institutions providing a platform for his formidable DJ sets.

PARADOX PREMIERE: YAZMIN - INTENSITY - SOT03

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to host such an iconic figure from the Berlin Techno scene : MARCEL FENGLER (IMF, Ovum, Ostgut Ton, Mote-Evolver).

Marcel Fengler has been quoted as “one of the finest techno DJs” (Resident Advisor), earning international recognition for his “well-crafted body of production work” (FACT) and the unique, “multi-faceted personality” (Electronic Beats) he brings to his craft.

For almost three decades, Fengler has developed a versatile and dynamic DJing style, making him one of the first resident DJs at Berlin’s legendary Berghain / Panorama Bar in 2005. Known for his ability to shift pace, atmosphere, and energy in response to the dance floor, he seamlessly moves between industrial-drenched hardness, broken beats, gloomy dubs, and melodic grooves. His early releases on Ostgut Ton and Mote Evolver paved the way for his debut album, Fokus (2013), a statement of intent filled with emotional depth and unexpected contrasts.

In 2011, Fengler launched his imprint, Index Marcel Fengler (IMF), a label dedicated to his timeless techno vision while serving as a platform for emerging talent. This philosophy took on new dimensions in 2024 with the launch of ‚KISHIKAN’, an event series combining elements of his ‘IMF label showcases’, ‘Marcel Fengler Invites’ events and the newly established HARDPROOF VA project. With KISHIKAN, Fengler continues to push boundaries, creating a fresh space for artistic innovation and musical exploration.

For Marcel Fengler, techno is more than a genre - it is an unconditional passion and an essential part of his identity. Refusing to be confined to a linear sound, he constantly seeks new ways to tell stories through music, showcasing a bold and evolving vision that cements his place as one of today’s most exciting electronic artists.

Octopus Black

Horacio Cruz - Octopus Black (Original Mix)

Grab you copy > 

The Moroccan Techno label SOTOR - سطور is pleased to present you the new release SOT04.

Meaning "lines" in the arabic language, SOTOR shows here its interest in the various shades of Techno.

Horacio Cruz delivers 2 original tracks to write the fourth lines of the Sotor's story in addition of two remixes from Spectrums Date Forces & Alien Rave:

"Octopus Black" is an apocalyptic electro big-banger where Horacio Cruz combines both his techno and electro influences in a unique way. The Spanish techno master offers you here your first experience into a black hole.

The cosmic journey continues with Alien Rave & Spectrum Data Forces versions of ‘Octopus Black'. They deliver a timeless electro gem & draw here with their remixes a musical allegory of our modern decadent world, where mankind is causing its own loss.

On the B-side, Horacio Cruz delivers a powerful techno gem with "Undoctrine".

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to welcome the talented DJ & producer : Uun. 

Uun's techno blends widescreen grayscale imagery with propulsive dancefloor pressure. Whether crafting what Hardwax dubs "straight ahead techno juggernauts" or deep, introspective  tools, his work is grounded in a masterful command of atmosphere and texture.

Uun developed his interest in fringe sounds as a guitarist and drummer in his hometown of Kansas City before shifting his attention to electronic music in 2012. This led him to relocate to Detroit, where he spent seven years pushing deeper into the underground techno scene, refining his production and performance methods. Between the Midwest and several periods in
Berlin—another city he's found a deep connection to—he's honed a style that's allowed his music to nimbly navigate between different subgenres, "quietly infiltrating" the genre from multiple angles at once.

Uun's sound and his ability to mold it into a variety of forms has captured the attention of lauded techno labels like Mord, Semantica, and Soma. On his own Ego Death imprint, he pushes past genre confines and deeper into his music's underlying themes, exploring existentialism, duality, and the role of the artist in the modern era. His first full length, 2022's Derealization, interrogated
dreams through rebuilding memories of liminal spaces, and on his latest Ego Death release, 2024's Platform Decay, he laces his tracks with a poignant criticism of social media-driven cultural homogenization while doubling down on his own uncompromising sound.

As a live performer, Uun distills years of his studio practice into cathartic sets that build off his productions while pushing them into exploratory new territory. His live show has taken him to legendary clubs like Berlin's Tresor, Tbilisi's Khidi, Detroit's Movement Festival, and Brookyln's
Basement, and alongside the decade-plus of releases under his belt, it's safe to say Uun's infiltration of techno might not be so quiet for much longer.

Enjoy and feel free to share! Love & Techno

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to host such an iconic figure from the London Techno scene : R.M.K (Fossil Archive, Nechto , Odd Even).

Hailing from London, R.M.K is an exciting new project by Fossil Archive label head Roberto. It represents a faster and more intense take on his unique brand of Techno.

During his 20+ year career in music, he has formed friendships and worked in partnership with other respected artists such as Trevino (Marcus Intalex), Jamie Anderson, Robert Owens, Goldie and Nastia.

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to welcome the French talent DJ : ROULITA

"I recorded this podcast with a hopeful mind for the future. Lately life has been teaching me a lot of stuff, I have asked the universe for patience, strength and serenity. And through hesitation, pain and worry, I found the way to it. So I wanted to paint this mindset through this set. Introspection, acceptance and love are key to a peaceful inner life. 
Life is like a painting, and just like the dancefloor... you can choose to bring something positive to it and make it even more magical...even with just a smile :))"

Roulita is an emerging artist, always searching for new sounds and musical expressions. Self-taught and daring, she stands out for her passion for unearthing cutting-edge tracks and creating unique sets.

BCCO Premiere: FHASE 87 - COWBOY [SOT05]

✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to host such an iconic figure from the Indian Techno scene : ARJUN VAGALE (Axis, Odd Recordings, MindTrip Music).

Widely celebrated as the pioneer of techno in India, Arjun Vagale continues to steer the course of the country’s underground electronic movement. Known for his intense, driven and raw sound, Arjun is one of the most prolific artists to come out of Asia, and his cutting-edge productions have seen massive global reach. Receiving numerous awards and named one of “Asia’s finest underground music exports”, Arjun is an artist, DJ, producer, live act, label owner, radio show host, and all-round music entrepreneur.

2021 saw Arjun release his debut artist album "Exit Fragments" on Jeff Mill's AXIS Records.
The LP received several accolades including the 'Best Albums of the Year' by Mixmag. Boldly moving away from a major mainstage career at a time when his erstwhile live act, Jalebee Cartel, was sharing headlining spots with The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy and Modeselektor, Arjun followed his love for the counterculture by traveling into darker, more experimental terrain. Always inspired by the sounds coming out of Berlin, he based many summer tours out of Germany before moving to New York and finally settling in Goa. Arjun’s knowledge and use of technology on stage is unparalleled, and he innovatively wields drum machines and modular synthesizers to create an electrifying atmosphere. His ability to literally ‘move’ a dance floor, not just play to it, has brought him to legendary clubs like Tresor, Womb & Paradiso, and prominent festivals such as Awakenings, BPM, Sonar, ADE, Fusion, Sunburn and Supersonic, playing alongside the industry’s finest.

His productions have truly put him, and India, on the electronic music map. Early tracks like “She Said” and “Terrakoz” were championed by Hawtin and Dubfire, and subsequently licensed to compilations by Carl Cox and John Digweed. Remixes soon followed for Danny Tenaglia, Victor Calderone and Dave Seaman. Now signed to Axis Records, REKIDS, KEY Vinyl, his previous releases on Drumcode, SCI+TEC, Tronic, and Planet Rhythm have received worldwide acclaim, and his signature sounds are regularly played at DC10 in Ibiza or Berghain in Berlin.

Enjoy and feel free to share! Love & Techno

GTG Premiere | Kmyle & Ramon Tapia - Mental Space (Exos Remix) [SOT06]

✈ To celebrate the last episode of November, we are proud and delighted to welcome Dutch Techno DJ: SELENE.

How did you record the mix + your vision for the set:
"Life can feel chaotic - this mix for Paradox explores a conceptual approach where I blend complex rhythms with layered structures reflecting the chaos of life - it moves through shifting moods and energies and It’s a bit of an experiment in tension - each transition is designed to challenge perception, creating a sense of controlled chaos that remains hypnotic and takes you on a deep journey 👽"

Highlight track: 
"LUAR  - Specter ->  one of my favorite local producer (Amsterdam), Just keep us giving quality - Check him out :) "

Selene has a love for hypnotic, atmospheric raw techno characterized by dominant trippy rhythms and textured elements. She builds musical journeys through extemporizing and sensing the moment on the dancefloor, where she hides these hypnotic yet powerful cycles. A sound that have gained the likes of many key venues in Europe such as Paradigm, RSO.Berlin, Tresor, Tempio del Futuro Perduto Milan, Lofi, Awakenings & Radion to name a few. Her personal vision is to always reinvent herself as an artist, even when playing the same musical styles and she is always looking for fresh producers to support. 

Enjoy and feel free to share! Love & Techno

PARADOX PODCAST #210 -- SELENE

The Moroccan Techno label SOTOR - سطور is pleased to present you the new release SOT06. 

Meaning "lines" in the arabic language, SOTOR shows here its interest in the various shades of Techno.

Two heavyweights of modern techno, Kmyle and Ramon Tapia, join forces to write the sixth lines of the Sotor’s Story in addition of two powerful remixes from Moteka & Exos. Expression EP, is a five-track journey that blurs the line between precision and emotion, groove and gravity.

The title track, “Expression,” opens the EP with unrelenting drive. Its pulsating low-end, rolling groove, and haunting synths create a sense of forward motion that feels alive — constantly shifting, evolving, and breathing. There’s a hypnotic elegance beneath its toughness; a perfect reflection of the duo’s ability to merge function and feeling into one piece of art built for the dance floor.

PREMIERE: Kmyle & Ramon Tapia - Expression [SOT06]

Artista: @kmyle & @ramon-tapia
Remixer: @moteka
Sello:  @paradox-sotorrecords Paradox/Sotor

El sello marroquí SOTOR presenta una nueva página de su narrativa techno: el remix de Moteka para “Mental Space”, una reinterpretación que no se limita a remodelar el original, sino que lo desplaza hacia un terreno más rudo, seco y quirúrgico, fiel al ADN del productor francés.

Moteka aborda el tema desde el pulso interno del groove. Tal como describe en el press, cargó los stems melódicos del original en el sampler de Bitwig para retorcerlos hasta convertirlos en fragmentos tensos, casi industriales, y luego ensambló la estructura alrededor de un bajo analógico grabado con sus sintetizadores externos. El resultado es un remix que conserva la columna vertebral del track, pero le arranca el barniz espacial para dejar al descubierto una versión más carnal, directa y abrasiva, hecha para sistemas que no perdonan.

Donde el original de Kmyle & Ramon Tapia abría una grieta mental, Moteka la ensancha: ritmos áridos, texturas granuladas y un fraseo que avanza con un filo casi mecánico. Es techno sin nostalgia, sin suavizantes, sin intención de complacer; construido para clubes donde la tensión es un lenguaje propio.

Con este remix, SOTOR reafirma su apuesta: mostrar las múltiples geografías posibles del techno contemporáneo, desde la precisión del original hasta esta arista áspera y magnética firmada por Moteka.

PREMIERE: Kmyle & Ramon Tapia – Mental Space (Moteka Remix) – SOTOR

For the sixth release, "Expression EP", Kmyle & Ramon Tapia delivered 3 original tracks + 2 remixes from Moteka & Exos to write the sixth lines of Sotor's story.

KMYLE & RAMON TAPIA ”EXPRESSION EP” incl. remixes from Moteka & Exos lands on SOTOR - سطور on 28th November 2025.

The Moroccan Techno label SOTOR - سطور is pleased to present you the new release SOT06.

Meaning "lines" in the arabic language, SOTOR shows here its interest in the various shades of Techno

Next comes “Mental Space,” a more cerebral affair that dives deep into metallic rhythms, resonant stabs, and spacey atmospheres. The track feels like a descent into the mind’s darker corners — intense yet strangely liberating, designed to shake big systems while keeping the listener mentally suspended in its groove and flow.

With Expression EP, Kmyle and Ramon Tapia deliver a statement of intent — five tracks that reflect the power of collaboration, the depth of craftsmanship, and the timeless energy that defines raw, deep techno. Each piece stands strong on its own yet fits perfectly within a larger sonic narrative: tension, emotion, and groove, expressed through pure, uncompromising sound.
