space•lab presents the Negen EP from Human Space Machine, a journey into Mike Jungerius’ unique take on the deeper shades of techno. Featuring four meticulously crafted tracks, this release showcases his signature sound—as rolling basslines and hypnotic acid lines weave seamlessly through intricate percussion, beautifully balanced with the perfect dose of melody and harmonics.

Each track offers a unique glimpse into Human Space Machine’s refined approach to techno: atmospheric yet grounded, minimal but rich in texture. With tracks ranging from 100BPM to 144BPM, this is a record you can reach for any time of the night.

“I've collaborated with Polychrome for quite some time. I performed at their one-year anniversary at Sexyland and, along with Eversines, played at their ADE 2022 party. Additionally, I contributed to their recent "Reflection EP." Throughout this collaboration, we became friends. Hervé, one of the core members of the group, asked me numerous times to create an EP together. It wasn't until his wedding that I finally said yes (how fitting!).

The first track of the EP is "Laak," a tune I created the day after playing at the club in Den Haag. I thoroughly enjoyed DJing at this venue with its impressive sound system. It inspired me to work on the low reese-bass that forms the core foundation of the track. Hervé and I decided to dedicate the entire A-side to this tune, as we had discussed how nice it would be to have a 45-side on this EP.

The second side focuses more on the emotional aspects we appreciate. "Underwater (Dream Mix)" opens this side with an uptempo techno-ish foundation and trancy melodies, fitting the label's aesthetic perfectly. The track's name stems from my unintentional creation of very "underwater" sounding pads during the recording session (note to self: next time double-check if the mix is alright). The EP concludes with "Reassociate," a tune heavily inspired by the early 2000s IDM gems we adore.”

Alpenglühen’s ninth release, Guldstund EP, brings together Ben Kaczor and Martinou under their collaborative alias, Tarik Hensen, for a project that balances deep grooves with a contemplative edge. Named for the fleeting Alpine glow that graces mountain peaks at dawn and dusk, Alpenglühen evokes a sense of transient beauty mirrored in this EP. Each of its four tracks is crafted with an understated yet profound minimalism that resonates across time and mood, making it ideal for the after-hours haze or the quieter moments of a night. Tarik Hensen’s sound here is restrained and expansive, capturing a complex emotional range.

Our premiere for today, “Tjäle,” encapsulates this concept through its reference to the Scandinavian ground frost that clings to the earth in the early morning light. Like the rare alpenglow, “Tjäle” has an ephemeral quality - it sits in the memory, gently cooling yet vivid, lingering as subtle layers unfold. The track’s steady rhythm and textured atmosphere mirror that frosty stillness, a restrained force as delicate as deeply rooted. In this way, “Tjäle” captures the spirit of both natural phenomena, blending the quiet persistence of ground frost with the radiant, fleeting warmth of Alpenglühen itself.

The Guldstund EP will be released on November 18 and will be available on 12” vinyl via Alpenglühen’s Bandcamp and other favorite record stores. Alpenglühen has carved out a niche for refined, introspective club music, and this EP perfectly captures that ethos.

This song is about my angels who accompany me on my journey. Freedom is within us, I hope you recognize it.

YAN NEY - MY ANGELS

Hailing from the current capital of craziness, Dommie's debut EP, “Cutting Through,” introduces a distinctively refined and immersive psychedelic palette, engineered for modern dance floors yet rich with textural depth. Conceived as a cohesive auditory journey, it weaves driving, hypnotic groove with subtle, unpredictable turns, creating a captivating and subtly disorienting atmosphere. This confident first statement showcases Dommie's skill in crafting nuanced electronic landscapes that reward close listening. The package is further elevated by an authoritative remix from Kontrapunkt label head Nikita von Tiraspol (SXDNS449), resulting in a robust and well-rounded first offering.

Premiered here, the title track is where the thesis crystallises into a mesmeric, floor-focused reality. A lean, insistent house pulse provides the skeletal drive, but the soul of the piece lies in its lush, psychedelic detail. Above the minimal groove, arpeggiated synth layers emerge not as rigid sequences, but as something fluid and alive – a cascade of liquid electricity that pools, spirals, and gently dissolves the edges of the rhythm. This is the sound of a focused mind in a state of elegant distortion, crafting a trippy, ever-shifting topography within the four-four framework. It’s functional gear for the nightclub's heartbeat, polished until it becomes a portal.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://kontrapunktsound.bandcamp.com/
