Following major league releases on Afterlife and his own imprint Apparition, Dutchman VNTM makes his debut on Spectrum, stamping down his pristine melodic techno mark on the label's 20th release.

'Deceiving Tendencies' and 'Disrupting Machines': evocative titles for these apocalyptic times. Two tracks, two universes, two transcendental opportunities to momentarily leave this reality and be whisked away on huge, swooping sonic waves. 'Deceiving Tendencies' takes the lead; A widescreen progressive tale laced with tense strings and soaring textures that lift you gently but make no promise to bring you back down to earth. Meanwhile 'Disrupting Machines' keeps us in deep space. Expect premium zero-gravity feels as the track's elements appear to float around us and the unhurried, palpitating groove gradually twists in and out of the stars, light years away from the current realities.

Golan Zocher and Choopie join forces once again after various successful collaborations recently. This time the Israel based artists join Paul Hazendonk's MNL imprint with the warm, dreamy, chilled out single 'Shades Of Love'.

First up on remix duties it's Zalvador who turns the song into a blissful piece of melodic euphoria, whilst the second remixer, Hobin Rude, delivers a more classic progressive house sounding approach.

All together a very strong and versatile package with something to enjoy for everybody here.

Sometimes you make two tracks that are worlds apart but work so well side by side as a single release. Such is the case with 'Dub Track' and 'Combustion' from Rob Hes and Steve Slight.

New to the label but impeccably well-versed in the game, the Dutch/Belgian friends have collaborated on Sudbeat and Selador in the past. Now they make their debut on Joris Voorn's Spectrum with two deliciously contrasting late night missives.

'Dub Track' takes us back to the early 2000s with its stripped back charm. Think DC10 and 6am sets by Sascha Dive or Silicone Soul; a bulldozer full of eerie tension made solely of kicks, subs and hypnotic synth washes.

'Combustion' meanwhile provides the ultimate flip. Masterful in its pace and sense of theatre, maximal in its high voltage pay-off, this one powers into life in a whole new way after the breakdown. A real level-booster of a track that lives up to its engine-like name, this will raise roofs, arenas and the stars in the open skies this festival season.

Worlds apart but the same beautiful universe. Rob Hes and Steve Slight have smashed an exceptional Spectrum debut right here.

Rituals. We all make time for them. The special things we do to keep our chaotic lives in order and keep our engines running. Whether it's that morning coffee, that evening run, that goodbye hug or that beautiful euphoric track you play before going out to put yourself in the best frame of mind; Rituals are everything. And this 'Ritual' from the currently unstoppable French artist Aalson is definitely one of those euphoric tracks.

Making his debut on the label after a string of exceptional tracks on the label likes of Sinners, Labo T and Customized Culture, Aalson presents a 'Ritual' we can all get behind. Soft harmonics, poignant chord changes and a rolling sense of momentum that's both physical and emotional, this is a 'Ritual' that will keep all chaos at bay and make sure every engine is running at it's best possible condition. Make time for it today.

Recode and reload: Joris Voorn returns to a landmark collaboration in his career with this powerful new club version of 'Too Little Too Late' featuring the unique and hugely influential pioneers Underworld.

Previously spotted on Joris's warmly received and critically acclaimed LP 'Four' in November 2019, 'Too Little Too Late' was a stand-out moment of rocket-fuelled emotion and dreamy musicality that brought the album to an exciting peak.

And now dance floors will be pushed to new heights thanks to Joris's fresh and dynamic Little Late remix.

Switching out the gossamer synths and somnambulant sheen of the original for a much darker palette and heavier, focussed, groove it's a whole new animal that's entirely built up around this mighty high voltage drop where Karl Hyde's vocal sizzles through with absolute authority.

A great extension of the 'Too Little Too Late' story and a perfect timed update as we transition from festivals back to clubs. It's never too late for moments like this.

New for '22, Marcus Schössow and Thomas Sagstad joined forces to unveil the fresh and exciting musical project... anamē.

Coming off the back of a hectic tour, including playing the Gashouder, Victoria Dock and Brooklyn Mirage. And having wow'd us with their recent Anjuna single 'Gratitude'. Plus conquering the 1 million monthly listeners mark on Spotify alone. It would be foolish to label anamē's year as anything other than a huge success.

Next step in their exciting journey is this debut release on Joris Voorn's Spectrum imprint. Two tracks that have caused seismic moments in their arena gigs this summer.

Inochi is a tense, almost foreboding number, with its bubbling metallic melody that envelops the dancer. Buio on the flip counters the darkness of its title, with its cascading horns and swirling droplets of sound, to create a melodic and majestic number.

A superb debut from the newest members of the Spectrum family.

2019 gets off to a massive start at Manual Music, as the Dutch label welcomes back Rauschhaus to the label after his earlier shared EP with PHCK- and his remix for label head Paul Hazendonk which were both released in 2017.

The German producer doesn't fly solo this time, as he has teamed up with talented Ecuadorian producer V-Cious who you might know from his earlier releases on labels such as Parquet Recordings and KDB.

And that's not all, because on the EP's title track 'Boy' the duo worked with Australian vocalist Haptic who's discography is quite an impressive one, as he has collaborated with artists such as Several Definitions, Riesen, Third Son, Simon Doty, Daryn Vlys, AFFKT, Audio Junkies, Marc DePulse and many others!

The beautiful, moody and mysterious 'Boy' comes in the original mix and a remix by Germany's rising star Renga Weh (3000 Grad Records / Lauter Unfug), whilst the more than worthy "b-side" track titled 'People Under The Stars' gets remixed by Argentinian progressive house maestro Antrim.

All in all it's clear that Manual Music continues the new year where they've ended the previous one; pushing quality underground electronic music, as they have done so since 2005.
