Since 2020, he has released music on some of the most respected labels in the electronic scene: Kompakt, Mobilee, Exploited, Permanent Vacation, Helena Hauff's Return To Disorder, and an album on John Digweed's Bedrock Records, with consistent support from top DJ's around the world.

As a true electronic music lover, he has collaborated with some electro icons (Dave Clarke, Arnaud Rebotini, Chicks on Speed, The Advent, Keith Tucker from AUX88...), adding an extra vocal dimension to his music.

In 2023 he reached a career milestone with a full album called "The Super Album" on the legendary label KOMPAKT Records, with the privilege to join the short list of artists having signed an LP on this label, such as Kölsch, Agents Of Time or WhoMadeWho.

In 2025 he's coming with a new album called "LUZ" on beloved Berlin's label MOBILEE, a new achievement for him as an artist and a special step in his career.

He is now widely recognized for several standout tracks:
► "Everything" on Kompakt (300K plays on Spotify), supported by Pete Tong, Adriatique, Âme, Mano Le Tough, Jimi Jules...

► "Mentally Naked" (200K plays on Spotify), played by the late Andrew Weatherall on his last radio show

Having dreamed of becoming a DJ since childhood, he is now living his dream, recently touring around the world, USA, Mexico, Bahrain, and across Europe (Germany, Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Bulgaria, Andorra...).

Inspired by space disco pioneers, Detroit techno and electroclash, his sound can be defined as romantic & burlesque.
Be sure, Mustache is the future.

Renowned for her genre-blending approach and sharp production skills, Brazilian-Austrian artist Joyce Muniz returns to Kompakt with her powerful new single, “Hack The System.” This track marks a bold artistic statement that goes beyond the dancefloor, merging infectious electronic rhythms with a deeper socio-political message.

Featuring vocals by Futuradora, “Hack The System” is a call to awareness—an urgent and rhythmic critique of structural inequalities and digital surveillance culture. With pulsing basslines and hypnotic synth work, Muniz crafts a track that is as politically charged as it is club-ready.

This is Muniz’s second release on Kompakt, following the critically acclaimed “Beats & Lines” with Sara Bluma. Where that track explored personal connection, “Hack The System” speaks to a collective resistance and the need for systemic change, aligning with Muniz’s roots in underground culture and activism.

“Hack The System” will be available via Kompakt’s digital platforms and streaming services.

When the demo of ‘Scorpio Rising’ landed in our office, we knew immediately: this has to be released in the summer! A hook is a hook is a hook. And what Lannakise sang into the mic for LOPEZHOUSE is definitely a big hook with barbs that sticks in your head. A pristine pop house masterpiece from the La Mancha native. The remix by Scottish techno legend Funk D’Void brings a deeper perspective to the mix which recalls Kompakt’s golden era sound of the 00’s and unfolds its full beauty in the early hours of the morning.

Our favourite Cologne newcomers, 9OASES are back with a bang! "Call Coco" is pure, undiluted, infectious fun for summer dancefloors of all sizes and colours. Think Mory Kante's immortal "Yeke Yeke" clashing with Tyree Cooper hip house in a 2025 stylee. Feeling blue? Call Coco!

Our homie Jonathan Kaspar takes care of primetime in his usual skilful and efficient manner. Embedded in his precision groove work, Lannakise’s angelic vocals will certainly trigger many moments of sweet, ecstatic disorientation.

with RV8, the osaka-based producer and musician AOKI takamasa continues his long- term project that focuses on the modulation of rhythms and grooves. it began with his first ep ‚rhythm variations‘ in 2009, released as part three of the unun-series. besides his collaboration with raster-noton, he released records on several labels like commmons, progressive form and op.disc, produced remixes for well-known musicians like ryuichi sakamoto or yoshihiro hanno and played performances at, for example, elektra/montreal and club transmediale/ berlin, all in all making him a renowned producer in japan and beyond.

starting with a firework of bleeps and bops, already the very first minutes of his new record reveal aoki‘s preference for vibrating beats and likewise his playful approach to music, generating a sound that is aiming at the dance floor.

like the first ones, almost all tracks of the record are characterized by a constant modulation of chords and lines that sometimes appears somehow hyperactive, but nevertheless results in a natural flow that perfectly reflects AOKI‘s laid-back attitude combined with his will to produce danceable and funky music.

the fluent arrangement is only interrupted by the third track which forms a caesura by being more reduced and slower. in contrast to this, the following tracks present a faster tempo and an increased intensity; and whereas the first tracks reflect downbeat and r‘n‘b influences due to their broken beats and chunky sound, the later songs are characterized by a more sleek and technoid style, incorporating dribbling basses, clappy sounding snares and modulated voice snippets.

although all of the musical components are constantly broken down, modulated, and rearranged, the overall sound of the record is dense and compact, featuring a groove made up of numerous elements that are complexly intertwined. the eight tracks of the record fit seamlessly together and create a composition that nearly functions like a dj set.

the album was mastered by yoshinori sunahara. needless to say that RV8 will be released as cd and lp.
