Retrospect 079 | Somnolent Works (@somnolent_works)

-

Józef Flakus, also known as Somnolent Works, is a producer, DJ and music explorer based in Upper Silesia. He is passionate about breakbeat/jungle rhythms, old school electro, and techno music, often with robotic and strong elements. He loves to break conventions and explore new musical directions taken from different genres of music. The gritty and atmospheric landscape of factories, mines, and steelworks of his hometown region has had a significant impact on his music, particularly in its darker and more experimental elements. Somnolent Works sound often reflects the mechanical rhythms and metallic textures of the industrial world.

He is a regular member of the CEL club in Katowice, where he can be heard playing his eclectic selections from behind the decks. His latest releases include his debut EP titled "Surface Noise" which was self-released at the end of 2021. The EP showcases his distinctive style of noisy breakbeat rhythms, while also exploring new musical directions. In late 2022, he released the "Paperclip" single on the SKAN Records (@skan-rec) compilation, which further demonstrated his ability to craft intricate and immersive soundscapes within the electro genre. On March 23rd, 2023, he released another, four-track EP, called "Elephant On Drugs" on the POTOP Records (@potoprecords) in Katowice.

ANTIBURN HOTCAST #82 with Somnolent Works (@somnolent_works)

"Get ready for the experimental but still danceable stuff I've prepared for this special occasion. You'll find lots of bass melodies, fast and saturated 808's, and my favorite noisy electro-basslines straight from the iconic Pro-One synthesizer. It's a combination of my new discoveries, but with a respect for the older tunes, which are continually a huge influence on me. I couldn't resist making room for a track from my newly formed label, called “No Photo Policy.” Definitely check out the full release as it is a BANGING opener! This is not a test" - Somnolent Works

TL PREMIERE : Bønehead - Acid Meltdøwn [Filth Inc.]

out now on Lambratech!! 

release info:

NEON ONI - ネオンオニ 

The sound of rebellion. The return of chaos. 

Lambratech proudly presents NEON ONI, a defiant 25-track compilation of cutting-edge electro from a battalion of international artists, each summoned to awaken the sonic demons beneath the surface. 

In a world where algorithms dictate taste and uniformity dominates the dancefloor, NEON ONI emerges as a glitch in the system — a call to arms for those who still believe in raw frequencies, distorted machines, and emotional voltage. Born from the depths of a cybernetic underworld, our Oni rise from tangled cables and neon-lit shadows to fight back against the tyranny of sonic standardization. 

This V/A release is not just a compilation — it’s an uprising. Expect machine-funk, cyber basslines, haunted grooves, and relentless drum programming. From classic electro purists to experimental iconoclasts, every artist contributes a strike in the war for musical soul. 

Plug in. Drop out.

jadzia - Splash Zone [LBTH006]

DJ Tankard - My Dancefloor s Ruleset

No Signs of Life’ pulses with rebellious rhythms and an energetic, chest-pumping spirit. This track challenges passivity and inspires action through its genre-fluid approach. GLNY keeps listeners on their toes, seamlessly blending UK bass, breaks, electro, and techno. Reflecting on the inhumanity prevalent in modern society, the song carries a positively humanistic message, infused with a primal, animistic ethos that evokes feelings of triumph. GLNY’s artistic diversity shines, making ‘No Signs of Life’ some of his best work yet.

𝙅𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙞𝙚𝙧𝙚 : Hylian Fields - No Techno Shit [Metal Disorder]

LFO:BRAIN emerges with Sub-Zero, a debut carved from frost, steel, and static. It’s raw electro that bleeds emotion through machine code, harsh yet human, cold yet alive. The EP feels less like a release and more like a signal intercepted from another dimension: fractured rhythms, glacial synth currents, and shadows of feeling hiding inside the circuitry. A first chapter that doesn’t orbit the scene, it drifts outside it, tracing its own constellation.

 Track by @dj_vietnam feat @teral

 

This is a casual collection of tracks created in different corners of the world, fully reflecting my taste and perspective on music. It’s filled with intricate details born from escapism - like collages torn from reality, resembling fragments of strangers’ stories accidentally overheard from passersby.

 

In this compilation are tracks by artists you won’t find on official charts, but whose sound is unforgettable. Noisy loops, crispy beats, distorted vocals, and cold electronics sound as if transmitted through an encrypted channel. Each composition is like a hidden message understood only by those who know where to look.

 

No rules, no censorship, no regard for algorithms - just the energy of an underground scene born from chaos and anonymity. I dedicate this collection to those who inspired me to create it - to those who once believed in me, believe now, and never stop believing.

Track taken from Fobos Hailey - Bulletproof [DR005]
Release date : September 25th, 2025
Pre-order : https://dionysian-mysteries.bandcamp.com/album/bulletproof

Fobos Hailey is the sound of a new era.
Reminiscent of the anti-authoritarian, boundless soundscapes of the early '90s, his music carries an infectious, ethereal flair of self-determination. Bulletproof oozes liquid confidence and swagger—it's the kind of sound that lights a fire in your belly. Throw it on your sound system, and you'll be dodging bullshit like Neo.
Fobos Hailey elegantly showcases the breadth of his production—from heavy-hitting bangers to self-reflective, contemplative jams. Get ready to be dosed with some of the freshest sounds of 2025. This masterful LP reimagines the rave sound we love from the past and pushes it into a future-facing, modern form.
