About the album: 

With "Closer", PNFA — the long-running electronic music project of German producer and composer Wolfram Gruss — presents a deeply emotional, sonically rich dance album that manages to balance physical intensity with lyrical introspection. Rooted in the rhythmic DNA of techno, house, and UK garage, "Closer" reaches far beyond the dancefloor. It is a record about memory, longing, and the fragile beauty of connection.

Though every track is anchored in powerful grooves and basslines, there’s an unmistakable emotional core that permeates the album. Gruss masterfully weaves in cinematic melodies, textured atmospheres, and subtle harmonic shifts that suggest stories without words. These aren’t just tracks built for movement — they are meditations on lost love, on moments that once burned brightly and have since faded, on the kind of nostalgia that hits hardest when the night is at its peak.

From pulsating, club-ready cuts to more reflective, slow-building compositions, "Closer" flows like a carefully curated journey. Each track stands strong on its own, yet together they form a cohesive narrative that invites listeners to go inward, even as their bodies respond to the rhythm. It’s this tension — between momentum and stillness, between euphoria and melancholy — that defines the emotional terrain of the album.

Wolfram Gruss has long held a reputation for thought-provoking electronic music, and "Closer" continues this trajectory with remarkable depth and attention to detail. Every sound feels deliberate yet organic, each percussive element finely tuned, each melodic layer carefully placed. There’s an intimacy to the production that makes the album feel personal, even vulnerable, despite its club foundations.

"Closer" is not just an album to dance to — it’s one to feel deeply. It’s about closing the distance between past and present, between sound and story, between artist and listener. It asks you to move, but also to remember. It pulses with life, yet leaves space for silence. Above all, it is an invitation: to come closer, to feel more, and to lose yourself — not just in the music, but in everything it brings to the surface.

Protocol Grooves Pt. 1

Waiting to Run

Listen here ▶️ http://prot.cl/one-inside

The newest single from Protocol Recordings is "One Inside," a dual release by an international collision of three talented artists. Aussie Marcus Santoro and Dutch producer Tim van Werd, who combined forces to create two different versions of the track, which features outstanding vocals by British singer Mila Falls. In Santoro's "Main Room Mix," he uses progressive melodies and a groovy bassline to complement the vocals, making for a mainstage-ready version that would feel at home at any festival. On the other hand, Tim's "After Hours Mix" delivers a proper vibe for those late nights-turned-early mornings, creating a rolling, deep progressive style.

Release Date: October 23, 2020
