Spectrum once again spotlights exciting talent, proudly welcoming German rising star KAUFMANN to the label with her electrifying double release, 'John Otto' / 'Bald Ponytail'.
 
Renowned for her high-energy DJ sets, KAUFMANN has impressively translated that intensity into her productions. With her own blend of thumping kicks and gnarly synths, she has already caught the attention of techno heavyweight Oliver Huntemann who has championed her work with releases on his Senso Sounds imprint.
 
'John Otto' sets the tone on her Spectrum debut, inspired by the raw, unrelenting energy of the legendary nu-metal drummer. With punchy beats, psy-trance-inspired synth stabs, and a groovy bassline, the track delivers a euphoric punch that's primed for peak-time floors.
 
On the flip, 'Bald Ponytail' locks listeners into a hypnotic groove with its call-and-response interplay of rattling bass stabs and siren-like vocal chops. Add in wild synth one-shots, intricate drum fills, and an explosive final drop, and you've got a track destined to send dancefloors into overdrive.
 
No limp bizkits here, just two sure shots for maximum dancefloor impact.

PREMIERE: Kaufmann (DE) - Hit The Toad [Shadow Wulf]

"The void in silence, my existence, life science. Who am I?"

With these striking words, André Winter sets the tone for The Void, his latest
sonic exploration into the depths of electronic music. The track embodies a
moment of raw creativity, where silence is both an adversary and an open field of
possibilities.

"It's about a specific moment in the studio," André explains. "The creative process
often begins with a battle against silence. Me and the machines. The void feels
threatening, but at the same time, it opens up the opportunity to create something
new."

Known for his precise, brooding sound design and relentless drive, André Winter
crafts The Void with signature dark textures, hypnotic rhythms, and an immersive
atmosphere that pulls the listener into its enigmatic embrace. The track’s pulsating
basslines and intricate synth work mirror the internal dialogue between uncertainty
and creation, making it a powerful statement in his discography.
With The Void, André Winter once again proves his ability to transform abstract
emotions into sonic form, offering a piece that resonates on both cerebral and
physical levels.

André Winter - The Void

Genesis EP by Estero & Tapiia delivers a feverish blitz of indie dance and techno. Featuring rather heavy club tracks, the EP draws inspiration from old-school psy-trance and analog synth textures, creating an otherworldly, high-energy vibe. With deep, rolling basslines and intricate, trippy soundscapes, “Lip Lock” is a journey through revelrous, retro-futuristic sound design.

Marc Romboy is a key figure in the German electronic music scene, building a
strong legacy for eclectic, boundary-pushing approach since the 90s.
Here he returns to Senso Sounds with two tracks of mind-bending techno.

Psilocybin does not hide its inspiration, the track is a powerful, driving techno tune
with a trippy, psychedelic edge that references 90s acid techno and brings it bang
up to date.

Distorted Sense of Time ploughs a similar furrow, but adds layers of dark machine
funk and acidic synth squiggles that creep into the track, ready to create massive
dance-floor meltdowns in the right hands. A wild ride into the more psychedelic
end of techno.
