Fresh into a mid-pandemic summer of heartbreak and descending chaos, Ardalan and Nala each grappled with the frustrations of a love lost and the exhaustion tied to managing the insatiable insecurities of past lovers and friends.

Habits Die Hard represents a release for both artists as Nala shouts 'Oh, you're not perfect? Well, welcome to the party!' A chant designed to reclaim her own power after enduring the pain caused by hurt people who hurt people.

Inspired by their love for rock and dance music, Habits Die Hard is an ode to the indie sleaze aughts where artists like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Soulwax reigned supreme. Ardalan shines with a new flavor of rough and rugged sound design motivated by their joint love for punk rock.

Egypt-born Barcelona resident Ahmed Raxon has proven himself to be one of the most consistent DJ producers of his generation. His ability to make big room techno FUNKY and highly entertaining has landed him releases on some of techno's finest powerhouses like Cocoon, Drumcode or Ellum. His new double header for Speicher again ticks all the right boxes. "Slipmode" is a robotic workout with that trademark irresistible Raxon drive. "Nu Waze" is more of a cheeky affair, combining an arab quarter tone hook with an ultra funky back beat that would make "Phunk Phenomena"-era Armand Van Helden proud.

‘Praise The Lord.’

The lord of acid mayhem ? The lord of killer bassline ? The lord of how to instantly captivate a crowd and light up a dancefloor ?
We dont really know but who cares, be sure to find all of that perfectly condensed in 5 intense minutes.

Straight to the point 90s rave revival with modern twist, this is the first taste of EDE return on Correspondant.

Ede - Praise The Lord

Eitan Reiter brings a new dimension to this epic cover version of a 90s classic while DJ T. returns to Get Physical Music with a signature remix. 

Eitan Reiter produces and releases genre-crossing electronic and electro-acoustic music. He has done so for 20 years both solo and as part of projects like LOUD but also, famously, in collaboration with Sebastian Mullaert on labels like Mule Musiq. He is an experienced sound designer and mixing engineer who goes down a nostalgic route here and as a result, has cooked up a real party anthem. 

This new version of the 90s classic is defined by rave-ready stabs with talk box vocals that bring retro-future appeal. Acid lines weave in and out of the metallic drums as the famous chords and female cries arrive to blow up the club. 

DJ T. is on a brilliant run of form that has seen the enduring underground talent start a new label, new alias, and continue to serve up fresh tracks on the label he co-founded over 20 years ago. His remix totally overhauls the original. It is steely and stripped back to a muscular groove and peppered with dark hits and edgy chords. It's tribal and hypnotic and perfect for heads-down dancing. 

This is a fresh package from Get Physical Music which offers both nostalgia and futurism.

The formidable Rex The Dog returns with his first single for Kompakt in three years, “Change This Pain For Ecstasy”, a slow-burning disco-glitter stomp that’s charged with analogue energy. Pushing his self-built modular hardware set-up to its limits, “Change This Pain For Ecstasy” is taut and thrilling, stripped-back and pulsating, with sweeping chords shimmering through a classic Moroder arpeggio, as a delirious voice sings out a psychedelic raver’s plaint for liberation, pleading for you to "take away my sorrow and this pain”. Deeply emotional, it’s also a masterwork in tension and release, dizzy with snare-rush peaks, and dark, humid valleys where Rex is bound to the patchbay.

On the flipside, Rex gives us “Moto”, which tickles your ear with cymatic phenomena, its gentle vibrations building, beautifully, into a monster-piece of stealth techno. Rex’s DIY synths work overtime as he chases patterns and phases through circuitry, wilding the tones until they erupt into a spray of pointillist pizzicato. The sounds here crackle and corrode, the textures so tantalising, so sensual, you can almost grab hold of them with your hands. It’s great to have Rex The Dog back, making livewire, yet deeply human techno, alive and bursting with electricity.

Ellum Audio serves up a selection of dance floor weapons on a bumper new sampler handpicked by label head Maceo Plex. 

Italian Laherte trained at Studio 76 Music and has since built on that early promise with tunes on top labels. He opens up with 'My Mind', a driving techno cut with slapping hits and filtered alien sounds bringing the menace. Ellum Audio artist Waltervelt then keeps it dark and cosmic with the skewed synth energy and prickly beats of his eerie 'Back Room'.

Argentina's David Bau has made big moves in the underground with this potent take on techno. Here he offers up 'Deconstruct', a tense and turbulent stomper with flashy synth designs and intense, grinding bass. French mainstay Madben follows up his excellent recent album with 'The Drone Dance', another standout track with strobe-lit synth lasers firing over the face of an ice-cold rhythm. 

Part 2 opens with Ibiza-based producer and DJ John Monkman, the founder of Beesemyer Music and a familiar face on this label. He impresses again with 'Talking Heads', another sublime mix of futuristic synth designs carefully layered up over compelling, steel-edged drums. 8-Bit Culprit is the house and techno alter ego of Faraz Ehsan from India. His 'Refurbished Robots' is an electrifying peak time cut that takes you to the heart of a dance floor in outer space, with nebulous pads and squealing cosmic sounds all wrapping around the urgent grooves. 

Next up is the collaborative Headwaters duo from Turkey. They draw on their mix of electronic sounds and instrumental skills on 'Eternal Madness', a slick tech track that locks you into crisp loops then mesmerises with the glowing synth harmonies which shine brightly up top. Danish DJ and producer Christian Nielsen is back on the label to round out this collection with 'Liberate,' a dark dance floor punisher with neck-snapping snares and ghoulish voices over a slithering and hypotonic beat. This has already been receiving plays from Maceo Plex at the likes of Timewarp, Brunch Madrid and the Ushuaia opening and is set to be a summer highlight. 

This is another high-class voyage to the edges of the techno galaxy courtesy of Ellum.
