Soma welcomes LA based Alexander Kulikov for a special release on the label, bringing the deep and dubbed out ‘October Dreams Pt.1’. The self professed ‘Dub Techno enthusiast’ has been involved in various musical activities in his time but has begun to focus more on the roots of his chosen sound throughout the last few years - bringing the traditional sound of Detroit & Berlin into his productions. This release (part 1 of 2) sees him delving into deep sonic experiments with ethereal soundscapes and atmospheres set to a backdrop of psycho-acoustic noise and static with the faintest of percussive elements helping to keep the rhythm. The release also features a special remix from one of Detroit’s best kept secrets as DeepLabs boss, Luke Hess turns in a perfectly crafted, Detroit inspired version of Stream. 

Mastered By Conor Dalton @ Glowcast Mastering.

PZ BROADCAST #45 Gars Records special with Kipronno, y2kati and CMRK at RADIO VILNIUS (10.10.2025)

“Falling” merges Black Asteroid’s industrial precision with Ian Astbury’s unmistakable voice, existing within Jesse Draxler’s expanding creative ecosystem. The track appears on WORKING TITLE, Jesse Draxler’s latest multidisciplinary project, released on October 31 via Federal Prisoner.

Emerging as a conceptual evolution of Draxler’s Reigning Cement, WORKING TITLE challenges conventions through themes of inversion, the dissolution of boundaries, and the redefinition of beauty through disorder. As with the entire project, Draxler’s touch extends across every layer—from the original field recordings that form its sonic DNA to the overarching visual and curatorial vision—ensuring WORKING TITLE stands as a fully immersive and uncompromised creative statement.

PREMIERE: BLACK ASTEROID - FALLING (FEAT. IAN ASTBURY) [ Federal Prisoner ]

Skinwork grew up in London through the late ’70s and early ’80s, drawn to electronica, post-punk, New Wave, and electro-funk/hip-hop, with a lasting love for the darker side of ’80s alternative music. By the mid-’80s, he was deep into record collecting, driven purely by passion.

In the early ’90s, a friend introduced him to mixing. He quickly honed his craft, sharing mix tapes that led to gigs at private parties and small West End clubs. As his sound developed a harder edge, Skinwork found his place in London’s underground—playing squat parties and the occasional fetish night.

Influenced by Detroit techno, trance, and progressive leftfield sounds, his sets have always bridged boundaries. Today, Skinwork channels his energy into exploring his darker roots, blending classic and contemporary Darkwave, Industrial, and Trad Goth with precision and intensity. He is also a regular guest DJ at Slimelight, performing on the goth floor.

[GARS012+LP] ĄNIS - I Swear I'm Not Delusional (LP)  SPOTLIGHT

Ąnis is a Lithuanian producer and DJ working in the space between broken rhythms and atmospheric weight. His tracks blur the line between club tools and introspective pieces - raw, textured, and unpolished in the best way.

The debut album “I Swear I’m Not Delusional” builds from late-night sketches into fully formed pressure systems. Ambient passages fall into break-driven grooves, each track shifting like a mood swing. It's rooted in tension, repetition, and space - think the grit and movement of early Skee Mask filtered through a more personal, less polished lens. Tracks like “Mountain People” carry warmth without needing to explain themselves, while others feel like they were made at 3am with no lights on. It’s not chasing a scene - just locked into its own pulse. This isn’t background music. It asks you to sit with it - or move to it. Either way, it sticks. More info at www.garsrecords.com

This mix draws its spirit from Louise Bourgeois’ Crucifixion — an attempt to wrap sound around the feeling of her work, where fear and pain are sculpted into form. Her fragmented bodies speak of both fragility and resilience, a coexistence of suffering and strength. The pain we carry can, in its transformation, become art. To echo that landscape, Nitsa turned to works by legendary sonic architects such as The Klinik, The Electric Hellfire Club, Von Thronstahl and Maska Genetik creating the sensation of stepping into a parallel, alternative European history marked by martial rhythms, ceremonial intensity, and cinematic tension.

Long


Started djing in 1997 in Kaunas, Lithuania. Since the early nineties he was regular at various rave parties and were heavily influenced by Detroit Techno and the likes of Acid House.


“I still remember clearly the feeling when I was entering rave parties at the time. It was a very young scene. The music, the people, the atmosphere and djs too were the ones responsible for the chaos and braking the borders of country’s long lived soviet oppression. It was a new generation growing up.” – notes Mantas T.Few years later it was a new experience living outside the country. Mantas T. was gone to the States (New York) and later to the UK where he faced the beginning of 80’s revival.In 2004, Mantas came back in his homeland, Lithuania. Based in Vilnius, with a fresh experience and a record bag full of cutting-edge beats, his dj sets became acclaimed nationwide. With his TV and radio appearances, demo mixes and self-irony, Mantas became a well-known resident of the first Lithuanian underground nightclub Gravity. The first club night called “Revolt” brought a lot of spark into the lithuanian music scene. Partyzanai, as party promoters, invited local Djs and international guests such as Damian Lazarus, Marc Almond, Steve Kotey, The Orb, Daniel Bell, Ewan Pearson, Jori Hulkkonen.In summer 2005,  Mantas T. with his colleague Gvidas established a non-profit netlabel under the name of Partyzanai. Initial label’s purpose is 24/7 search and releases of electronic music artists in Baltic region. Having the first album release of the artist named Golden Parazyth, Partyzanai netlabel was widely acclaimed nationwide. Another netlabel artist’s – Few Nolder – single “No mo”  and fresh new album “New Folder” is already out on legendary Planet MU label. 
In 2006-2009 as well as djing abroad, Mantas T. successfully organised the local night series. Focusing on good music quality and live visuals, it soon became the hottest night in town with the Lithuanian VJ teams Rüt Rüt and Vodka Jugend. Mantas T. was involved in guest appearances and live acts of Andrew Weatherall, Keith Tenniswood , Ivan Smagghe, Joakim, Funkstörung, Kiki, Swayzak, Phonique, Tiefschwarz, My My, Roman Flügel, Optimo , Superpitcher, Apparat, Nathan Fake, Troy Pierce, Ada, Pilooski, Faze Action, Toby Tobias, Jennifer Cardini, Tobias Thomas, Alex Smoke to name a few.
