2 years ago i created the blanket mix to make the cold months more cozy. But what's a warm blanket without a matching pillow, right?
Pillow talk takes you on a journey through deep structures and percussive elements, which all find their base in house music.
Put on your thick socks, grab a hot tea and float through your living room.

Black Mirror Park - Serotonin 5 [ECO025 | Premiere]

The Berlin-Based Brazilian artist inhales and exhales music.

Highly respected as a VJ for many years, Any Mello is always looking further on her path and its creative evolution.

Seduced by electronic sounds since her early years, Any decided to take a new step forwards in her career some years ago, moving from VJ to DJ and Music Producer. Drawing on her wide experience as a visual artist, creativity and originality have become Any's core traits in her new guise. Any embeds her true essence and personality into her music, as a unique mixed method artist she is known for manipulating her own vocals within her productions. Her focus is on the minute details, the colors, the patterns and textures contained within the music, distinctive traits of an accomplished visual artist in the cosmos of sound.

Her experimental ways of making music are one of a kind, her uncompromising drive to break boundaries and a cross-artistic medium is sure to create an imprint in the world of electronic music.
That's what she wants. That's how she is - Restless, relentless and unstoppable.

We're happy to present our first guest for 2025 - Tezet!  
Tezets dedication towards techno music started in 2018. Since he wanted to bring his own presence into the scene of his home base in Bremen, he started Djing in 2020 with the intention to gain knowledge about the art of this craft through which he shaped his sound more and more with the time. Nowadays his sound ranges from hypnotic to psychedelic to more deep sounds, while he is always digging for unusual music with interesting sound design making the crowd losing theirselves in mind bending textures.

All these facets can be found in his latest podcast where he takes you on a journey through various moods with proper storytelling in it.

PercoraInvites Vol. 11 - Tezet

Tracklist:

1. Cloaked in Rime [04:25]
2. Blue Blizzards [06:44]
3. IK-2 [06:10]
4. Salekhard [05:35]
5. Salekhard (smbr remix) [06:15]
6. IK-3 [03:55]
7. Janosch (Coda) [01:30]

The first release on ISOTES, 'Arctic Moonrise' explores a dark theme.

Authoritarian regimes are known to use exile as a tool to punish political opponents who dare to speak out against corruption or dissent from government decisions.

IK-2 and IK-3 are among many remote penal colonies, with some near the Arctic Circle, where political dissidents are imprisoned. This form of punishment serves a darker purpose: a deliberate strategy to instill fear, suppress dissent, and silence those who dare to resist.

'Arctic Moonrise' reflects the severe hardships endured by these prisoners in isolated camps.

The EP begins and ends with dark ambient tracks, while in between, several dancefloor-oriented pieces emerge, including a remix by smbr.

With the dark ambient tracks, the intention was to evoke the atmosphere of these penal colonies — harrowing tales of deprivation, years in exile, and the slow erosion of body and spirit under relentless cold and isolation.

Frenzy Podcast 206 - Reka Zalan

Number 206 of our series is brought to you by the one and only Reka Zalan!

Reka Zalan is a Berlin-based Techno DJ and promoter. Her sound shifts between hypnotic depth and percussive drive - always tuned to atmosphere and open to different shades of Techno whilst being particularly drawn to gloomier sonical realms. Grounded yet exploratory, her sets move forward, outward and inward, equally building tension and flow whether digital or on vinyl.

Beyond the booth, she’s strongly embedded in the heart of Berlin’s scene – as a local resident at Tresor, staff member at Hard Wax, part of Coppi collective or former co-host of the ://elements series. 

Enjoy the ride!

FrenzyPodcast #206 - Reka Zalan

She is a producer and DJ whose sets carry a clear signature and genuine emotion. Shaleen tells stories through sound and pulsing, atmospheric journeys that reach far beneath the surface. Her music feels warm, her transitions vivid, driven not by perfection but by authenticity. This approach shapes not only her DJ sets but also her own productions. Alongside her Tresor West residency and her work as a producer and DJ, she carefully builds platforms of her own. With SURD, a multidisciplinary event series in the Ruhr area, she brings together electronic music, visual art and social discourse. And with Spellbound, her new label, she opens a space for experimental, hypnotic sounds – raw, playful and profoundly deep.

In an interview with Andre Kronert, Shaleen speaks about long hours in the studio, producing modularly and surrendering fully to improvisation. Without pre-planned structures or digital safety nets, she immerses herself in a creative process led by instinct. Her inspiration comes from personal experience and electrifying textures brought to life through analog equipment.

Shaleen - Techno Vinyl Only Mix - VINYL MATTERS 027

Release date (vinyl & digital): 12th of September 2025

TRACKLIST:
A1: Flashback
A2: W9Y
B1: Ascender
B2: Break Nation

INFO:

Unmistakable are the sonic experiments of Spanish alchemist ORBE; with this fresh release on Token. ORBE’s iconically viscous textures and impactful percussion weasel their way into ‘Ascender’ for a deeper release on Kr!z’s label. Thick, brooding atmospheres drive these tracks into stories of pursuit and escape throughout its four tracks.  

A slick, pulsating low end in ‘Flashback’ stands out as a first impression for an imposing EP. Electric leads zip by for maximum psychosis; he’s known for his uncompromising dissonance and drive. A staple of the Spanish scene, ORBE bites down hard on deep and hypnotic techno to resonate through concrete warehouses. This jagged edge to club music continues through ‘W9Y’ - a more drum-forward cut with noisy transitions and breathable synthwork. Sharper stabs occupy this space as opposed to the track’s predecessor and tension is maintained with a lingering pad in the background. A meditative conclusion for the A side, ORBE quickly shifts his attention in the titletrack ‘Ascender’. Emphasizing tone and tune on the kick, the lead comes with confrontation. Rolling through shifting hats, the producer brings boiling tension through minimal arrangement and the weight of his sound design - a skillset only the most seasoned artists can claim. To close things out, ‘Break Nation’ does just that - cutting off the traditional four/four rhythm and instead presenting itself as a bass stepper. With ORBE’s classic unison packed synths, this dweller presents a whole other perspective on ‘Ascender’. A hybrid of influences and yet still destined for the techno dancefloor, this breath of fresh air serves as deep dive into the subconscious for an eyes-closed experience.

TOKEN134 - ORBE - Ascender

Static Field

In the scene for quite a long time SMBR continuously advances his very own sound somewhere between forcing techno and influences of deep house and drum ‘n’ bass.
Restrained and deep melodic vibes combined to pushing drums and percussions are exactly the way he likes to tell stories in his own productions or on stage.
Releasing on The Gods Planet and being part of the first two Delusion releases is an evidence of creativity on his attractive mixture of analog and digital equipment he uses in his productions.
