For the past few years, Daystar (aka @darianmusic) has been releasing top notch club tools, tracky techno, and amazing ambient music. They’re a staple of the NYC underground for good reason. They know that more is not more…Daystar hones it in and is choosy about what they release. Fixed Rhythms is excited to present Daystar’s vinyl debut of four techno journey-cuts full of funk, soul, and energy. 

The A-side tracks have a bit more of a jackin techno wormhole affect, while the B-side leans into some auxiliary percussion and strings / winds / horns settings on the synths, displaying their Detroit techno as well as House influences proudly. Upbeat, groovy basslines. It’s up-tempo, but it’s not banging you over the head. Great variety of techno tunes to turn a party out and have the heads leaning over to peek at the center label. Hot item!

TC Premiere: Daystar - Spiral Loop [ Fixed Rhythms ]

Truncate teams up with Chicago icon DJ Hyperactive for the ‘Trust The Process’ EP, landing on the former’s eponymous imprint this March. Crafted over the past two years in Truncate’s LA studio, the release marks the pair’s first-ever collaboration in twenty years of friendship and sees them delve deep into their decade-long wealth of knowledge of versatile House and Techno.

DJ Hyperactive and Truncate’s ‘Trust The Process’ starts with ‘Universal Function’, a no-holds-barred dance track with mind-addling loops, each sequence carefully overlapping to melt the ‘floor. The title track then strips things back a little, in which they underpin wiggy acid sounds with an effective groove before ‘Space Shuffle’ shoots for the stars with trickling synthlines and rolling rhythm. ‘Matter Of Time’ then closes out this all-purpose offering with dark, bleepy melodies laid over locked organic drums for another tasty set of cuts on the Truncate label.

Truncate, synonymous with the LA Techno scene as one of its most stalwart champions for over a decade, is known for his quality, groove-driven Techno and handy DJ tools on labels like Hardgroove, his Truncate imprint, and jackin’ WRKTRX sublabel. Here, he taps up Chicagoan 90s Techno and House legend and 4 Track Recordings label boss DJ Hyperactive for the ‘Trust The Process’ EP, whose own production credits span labels like CLR, Nachtstrom Schallplatten, and once before Truncate for 2023’s ‘Reptilian Tank’ EP.

PREMIERE: DJ Hyperactive & Truncate - Universal Function (Truncate)

Pre-order: https://proxima9000.bandcamp.com/album/inner-call-ep

'Inner Call' marks the first collaborative release from @djmaria-jp and @audreydanza, a fusion of two singular voices shaping the contours of modern club music landing via @proxima9000.

Across three tracks, the EP drifts between hypnotic psychedelia and high-intensity techno, channeling their shared instinct for raw, emotive energy. The result is a collection that feels both immersive and urgent—built for the floor but rooted in deeper, introspective currents.

Premiere: DJ MARIA. & Audrey Danza 'Inner Call'

Tresor resident DJs LNS and DJ Sotofett have for some years been developing a style at the club's Globus floor, and their new EP is a die cut of exactly the classic techno, electro, and house music they play. Here are no productions drenched in reverb, no hi-fi obsessions or generic algorithmic patterns – this is Globus Trax, the duo's third release on Tresor Records, four tracks consisting of real TR-909 workouts, rude and driving basslines, live runs through the mixing desk, and a Blake Baxter cover version with LNS on vocals. 
 
LNS & DJ Sotofett programmed an EP to perfectly fit their warehouse style of DJing, bringing out colour and variation in a spectrum more similar to a club compilation than a dogmatically reduced concept. With a single repeated vocal sample, Globus Trax opens bombastically with ClickClickClick, a dub-infused UK garage house track anyone in the world can easily describe in the course of a second.
 
Following this comes Gearbox which is a hefty slab of big room electro featuring a centerpiece arpeggio and the warmest harmonic pads on the EP's four tracks, which not-so-subtly makes reference to the pioneering band that shares a name with Globus and Tresor's home, the Kraftwerk. 
 
The house vibe returns on Destination 909, which is nothing but a manifesto for the TR-909, where the beloved drum machine's jacking beats meet galactic strings and synthetic bass, only to be ripped apart in a slamming break that sees the machine take centre stage as it cuts in-and-out of the mix, again a clear nod to the duo's sets in the club.
 
LNS steps up on vocal duties and DJ Sotofett keeps the 909 running for their final cut, taking a deeper dive into the realms of classic techno and paying tribute to "The Prince of Techno" Blake Baxter by covering his Reach Out originally released on Tresor Records in 1995.
 
The 12" was cut by DJ Sotofett himself at Manmade Mastering, where he resurrects the lost art of late-90s loud cuts with sonic presence and punch, optimal for the club-focused 12" format, and is the first to come in the new Tresor Sleeve, boasting an embossed logo on either side.

Rotterdam-based techno label Planet Rhythm return to the grid with 'Gavea Grooves' EP from Brooklyn-based producer Tommy Value...Our pick is ‘Gavea Groove’ – a bare knuckle 143 BPM pressure valve prised open. Equal parts blackout euphoria and trance-inducing magma, the track dissolves into a whirlwind of techno polyrhythms elevated with tension-heavy synth progressions, celestial whistles and syncopated chants echoing through a high-pressure dream state.
