André Winter and Hatzler's unique studio alchemy has revealed itself under many guises over many years. Their latest incarnation sees them join forces yet again for an impressive selection of maximal techno future classics, on the beloved Senso Sounds imprint of their longtime friend Oliver Huntemann.

There is nothing illusory about the duo's Mirage EP; the three tracks are rock solid, bristling with energy, and designed for maximum impact. "Mirage" is pure forward movement and acceleration, straight out of the gate. The duo create layer after layer of dark tech elements and percussive accents, building a sense of anticipation that drive towards a peak of sensory saturation.

"Kwantum" continues the metallic tones and spiky attitude, with a touch of vintage minimal flair that is perfect for late-night sessions. Starting with a sparse, deep swing and distinctive bass riff, neon retro pads begin to fill the gaps and tiny snips of machine music bring this streamlined stomper to life. "Glowsticks" possesses with the colour and vibrancy that the name suggests, to create a big, bright peaktime belter that maintains its relentless pace from the very first bar.


André Winter & Hatzler - Mirage

Originaire de Mulhouse, Neko a découvert la techno en 1999 par le biais de la trance, et a commencé à mixer en 2023 avec un style initialement orienté tech house. Au fil du temps, il a développé un univers plus sombre et mental, enrichi par la peak techno berlinoise, l’acid et la techno suisse/alémanique. Son école tech house lui a permis d’acquérir une technique très propre, tout en explorant des grooves hypnotiques et des textures immersives.

Ses influences vont de Ritchie Hawtin à Space 92, en passant par Amelie Lens et d’autres figures majeures de la scène techno. Que ce soit de la minimal ou de la peak techno, les sets de Neko sont toujours intenses, linéaires ou prévisibles ? Il ne connaît pas ce mot. Chaque mix est pensé pour emmener le public dans un voyage musical progressif, plein d’énergie et de punch.
