ROAX is a producer and artist from Johannesburg, South Africa, known for crafting immersive techno built on eerie textures, bleepy synth work, and strange, creature-like sonic elements. His productions lean into the hypnotic and atmospheric, drawing listeners into abstract soundscapes.

As the founder of Underground Africa and a key player in the local scene, ROAX is deeply embedded in the culture — not just through music, but through his role as a promoter, event curator, and venue collaborator. His output reflects a commitment to the raw, introspective side of techno, always exploring the outer edges of rhythm and sound design.

Whether in the studio or behind the scenes, ROAX stays active in shaping and supporting South Africa’s underground music scene.

This new track is a richly detailed environment of tension and subtle movement, capturing the essence of VARIA — electronic soundscapes that endure beyond the dancefloor.

VARIA: Enduring electronic soundscapes for discerning dancefloors.
Prioritising deep, nuanced rhythms and lasting artistry.

AN PREMIERE | BLZS - NIGHTCRAWLER [DUPLICITY]

Stream / Download: https://ffm.to/jet235

Namhar makes his debut on Jeton with the Velvet Pulse EP, a four–track journey packed with pure energy and atmospheric depth. The title track, Velvet Pulse, sets the tone with its hypnotic rhythm, dark pads, sharp synth stabs, and haunting vocal textures — all layered like fine jewelry on a pulsating groove. Pleasure Circuit raises the tension with a driving, groove–heavy flow, while Subversive Touch dives into darker territory with relentless pace and intensity. Closing with Underground Seduction, the EP leaves a lasting mark, weaving a deep and cinematic finale to this powerful techno statement.

This track marks the first track of a series of independent releases. Every month I’ll be releasing a track independently on my Bandcamp page. ‘Specter’ is all about movement and mood — a dark, rolling rhythm combined with detailed sound design and atmospheric layers that build a sense of depth and emotion.”

Produced, mixed and mastered by myself.
