Swedish techno innovator Lakej is back on Soma Records with a brand-new release that delves even deeper into the introspective, hypnotic soundscapes that have defined his sonic identity. Known for his stripped-back, yet emotionally charged productions, Lakej’s latest offering continues his evolution within the genre while staying true to the atmospheric minimalism that first captured attention on earlier Soma releases.
The new EP, titled “Static Future”, showcases Lakej's mastery of tension and release, blending polyrhythmic percussion, evolving textures, and subterranean basslines. Each track unfolds like a ritual; tight, immersive, and meticulously crafted for the dancefloor.
Following a string of acclaimed releases on Soma, Lakej cements his role as one of the label’s most distinctive voices in contemporary techno. “Static “Future marks not just a continuation but a refinement of the hypnotic minimalism he has become known for—pushing the boundaries while keeping the essence intact.

Fueled by passion, Dutch artist Vera Grace is steadily shaping her own space in Amsterdam’s scene. Her sound continues to evolve, blending modular synthesis with hypnotic rhythms and deep mental trips that make you lose sense of time. She approaches DJing as a way to create something new through layering, while her productions focus on warped sound design.

Her curiosity about modular synthesis opened a new dimension in her work. She started developing a fully live analog set and has recently begun performing with her modular system, constantly pushing her sound forward.

Her most recent EPs, What Was Always There and Funktion Over Form, convey a clear essence in her sound. She moves fluidly between broken rhythms, ambient trips, psychedelic textures, and driving 4/4 tracks, all while staying true to the genre’s roots.

After graduating the Conservatorium of Amsterdam, Vera Grace is steadily forging her place in the scene, with performances at clubs like Radion, Grelle Forelle, Elysia, FVTVR, Tresor, and festivals such as Aquasella, Awakenings and DGTL already under her belt.

@funkdvoid | Soma25 Remixes 
[SOMA476D] 

1.	Bad Coffee (@garybeck Remix)
2.	Jack Me Off (@christian-wnsch Remix)
3.	Jack Me Off (@alexsmoke Remix)
4.	Bad Coffee (@charlesfenckler Rave Mix)

Round 2 of the Soma 25 series sees the legendary Funk D’Void receive the remix treatment as his seminal ‘Jack Me Off’  taken from his debut Soma EP and further classic ‘Bad Coffee’ are reworked by Gary Beck, Christian Wunsch, Alex Smoke & Charles Fenckler respectively. FDV has been one of Soma’s most important artists, releasing some of the label’s earliest hits such as Diabla and working with the likes of Phil Kieran & Sian.

Scottish Techno phenomenon Gary Beck kicks things off with his take on Bad Coffee firing out a solid peak time burner in true Beck fashion and utilising the original’s quirky samples to great effect. Next up Jack Me Off is brought in the modern era by Tsunami label boss, Christian Wunsch who immediately sets about creating a sub heavy, hypnotic affair aimed firmly at the heavier edge of the Techno spectrum. Another well renowned Soma artist steps up to take on Jack Me Off as Alex Smoke brings his more diverse expertise to the table. A twisted, funk infused affair is the order of the day with fast paced and innovative use of the original definitely taking it to new places! Soma’s new blood, Charles Fenckler closes out the EP with his Rave Mix of Bad Coffee. Fenckler’s sights are firmly fixated on the dance floor with this version as he lets loose a no holds barred retake on FDV’s original.
