The Rhythm of Evolution (Extended Mix)

The Rituals series rises again — a fresh strike carved deep into black wax. RITUAL12 summons an international assembly of techno insurgents from the OMEN roster, each delivering their own sonic rite. Across two sides, the intent is absolute: raw, unfiltered power pulled from the shadows and unleashed on the dancefloor.

[SIDE A]
SWARM INTELLIGENCE – Inexorable
Berlin’s Swarm Intelligence ignites the record with precision-tooled percussion and fractured basslines. Polyrhythmic tension winds tighter with every measure, industrial grit locking into a cybernetic march toward total hypnosis.

B.A.R.K – Shikijitsu
A bone-rattling invocation of distorted low-end and ceremonial drums. B.A.R.K drives forward like ancient machinery grinding to life, a Japanese primal energy sharpened to a deadly edge.

AXKAN & DUELLIST – Resilience
Mexico meets Scotland for a brutalist assault: hammering kicks, serrated synth textures, and walls of analogue saturation. No safe passage here — only forward momentum into the heart of chaos.

[SIDE B]
EAS – Honored One
From Los Angeles, EAS delivers a tense, ritualistic construction where a subterranean EBM bassline pulses through metallic drones. Hypnotic, uneasy, and charged with controlled dissonance.

HATELOVE & OGMAH – Hanged Bodies
A dark ceremonial groove heavy with ritual percussion and spectral synth chants. The layers rise to a fever pitch, blurring the line between transcendence and collapse.

CRYSTAL GEOMETRY + AXKAN – Kratom
France’s Crystal Geometry joins AXKAN for a militaristic strike of modular chaos and pummeling drums. EBM-infused basslines drive beneath razor-sharp synth fire, rallying the midnight faithful to the front lines.

RITUAL12 is not a compilation — it’s a convocation. Forged in analogue heat, drenched in distortion, and aimed directly at the heart of the floor, this record demands full surrender. Step in. There is no turning back.

All tracks written and produced by the featured artists.

IOD PODCAST #019 /// WHITLEY

After getting off to a strong start last year following the creation of the record label Voight-Kampff, Whitley and his collective have been causing a ruckus around Scotland and have found themselves regulars at London’s Jaded. 

Whitley takes most of his inspiration from the old school, percussive drum driven techno sound coming from labels like Downwards and Tresor - as well as holding and taking a huge amount of interest in more recent Scandinavian techno and electronic music as a whole, namely from the Copenhagen techno scene.

The Brvtalist is proud to present a new mix by Balrog. Hailing from the Yorkshire Dales just outside of Leeds, Balrog is a NeoRave and industrial techno producer and DJ who has quickly become one of our favorite artists to watch. The young artist has been on a tear with huge releases on labels like The Meaning Of Rave, COUP, Green Fetish and others and has delivered punishing sets infused with classic hard rave style and grooving techno of the early 2000's with an injection of modern industrial power. We are thrilled to host this massive two-hour set which is an unparalleled journey through Balrog’s sound.

@absl, DJ producer, based in Paris.

1/ Who are you ? What do you do?
 I’m Timothée aka ABSL, electronic music producer, DJ and jobless since the Covid ahah

2/ Dream collaboration?
Wow, Blawan I guess, but there are many others. 

3/  Which track best represents your music?
All! I really try to make different songs every time, so only one can't represent my work I think. Otherwise, from another artist I would say "Blacksun - Buscamanta" : martial and mechanical.

4/ If you were a movie character, who would you like to be?
Mildred Hayes in ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ by Martin McDonagh I think, a woman with a crazy character and a courage that I admire a lot.

5/ Your podcast in one word? Sweaty

Lost In Ether | P R E M I E R E | Fixon - Abrupt [Vector Functions]

taken from: Fixon - Resign Yourself EP [VFR070] / incl. DJ Saint Pierre Remix
release date: Dec 14th 2020


"After a 3-year absence from Vector Functions, Fixon has put together the highest quality work, making us feel like it was worth the wait.

Resign Yourself is another chapter in the musical history of the Mexican artist, in which he has sought to deliver a sound work that will fully match his idea of the musicalization of Vector Functions, mixed with his original sound. In some way, this fusion has helped him get back to the roots, accelerate the pace, increase the forcefulness, and make a clear statement of the proposal, totally contrary to the name of the release.
We could define how it has achieved the perfect balance by creating a powerful and spatial sound stage.

Fixon has not come alone, he has invited one of his friends and colleagues from Illegal Alien, with whom he has already worked as a remixer and as a co-producer on the album 'No Boundaries: Two' published on Illegal Alien in the summer of last year.
The French, DJ Saint Pierre, has completely deconstructed the track 'Heroist' to create a version, much more aggressive and industrial, with broken beats and a dazzling energy."

The Brvtalist is proud to present a new mix from The Dag. The Berlin based DJ and producer, via the Philippines, makes intense and explosive music using elements of techno, industrial, noise, and, occasionally, trance. While she doesn’t restrict herself to a specific BPM or genre, she hopes to invoke cathartic feelings in her listeners with her powerful sound. We are ecstatic to host this absolutely punishing mix of her crushing sound.

Corona is still tryna fuck with us. As a dominator, Corona locks us up this NYE and we are not able to celebrate all together like we used to about one year ago.
Plus, we need to ask ourselves if 2020 is worth any celebration at all?
For me it is! I've started mixing back in the first lockdown and Nona and me introduced you to Xonic. We have already published four sets, one of them for my most favourite podcast page / CRUDE / and so much more to come in 2021 ❤
After getting so much lovely feedback I finally had the confidence in myself to start a solo project, uploaded my first mix and the people from FRENETIK gave me the first chance to do a podcast in December :)

After I can't celebrate with all of you this year I made this little NYE-Mix.
I hope you like it :)

Can't wait to get that stupid vaccine and be back on the dancefloor!!!
Much love ❤❤❤

UNDER CONSTRUCTION
Safer space collective in Paris nightlife.
Event 21+ for queers and night's creatures. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Founded in 2017 by David Le Naour and Léa Occhi, Spectrum Waves was born from a deep desire: to create a new space for expression, gathering, and experimentation within the LGBTQIA+ community. Rooted in electronic music culture, the collective offers a sanctuary of inclusivity, free expression, aiming to host events where everyone feels safe and welcome.

These events, crafted in an immersive, dreamlike atmosphere, are a true celebration of queer culture. A space where everyone can be their most authentic self. It’s not just about the music; it’s an invitation to dance, express, and honor the diversity of identities and experiences.

Since its creation, Spectrum Waves has established its home at La Station – Gare des Mines. All events push boundaries, blending art, lighting, live performances, and energetic sets. With a lineup spotlighting both emerging and recognized artists, we cultivate a range of electronic sound that is subtle, rhythmic, and mentally engaging.

Equality and diversity are at the heart of our approach. We emphasize gender parity and shine a spotlight on women in the electronic music scene. Moreover, the collective supports essential causes such as LGBTQIA+ rights, migrant assistance, and environmental preservation by donating part of each event's proceeds to various organizations.

Spectrum Waves is a movement to be together and defend our community! A safe place of freedom and expression. Get into the groove, and dance!
