Самме

François X, one of techno’s most innovative and introspective figures, returns with Straight Edge Society, a four-track EP that sees the Paris-based producer refine his unique blend of emotional depth and relentless, driving grooves. This new body of work marks his first solo release since the widely lauded CEO EP.

This release feels more like a statement a manifesto wrapped in four tightly composed tracks. It takes techno back to its purest form: rhythm as ritual, sound as transcendence. Known for creating spaces where emotion converges with immersive grooves, François ventures further into new territory, offering an experience that is both physically intense and emotionally rich.

This release feels more like a statement—a manifesto wrapped in four tightly composed tracks. It takes techno back to its purest form: rhythm as ritual, sound as transcendence. Known for creating spaces where emotion converges with immersive grooves, François ventures further into new territory, offering an experience that is both physically intense and emotionally rich.

Techno as a Path to Higher Consciousness
At its core, Straight Edge Society reflects François X’s ongoing journey toward clarity and self-discovery through music. This isn’t a rigid doctrine imposed on listeners; rather, it’s an invitation—an exploration of what it means to live life in “raw motion,” free from distractions or external influences. This project isn’t about abstention or lifestyle choices; it’s about finding focus and purpose, a temporary escape from the noise of the world into a space where sound serves as a pathway to clarity.

François condenses his musical philosophy into four tracks that shift between emotional depth and rhythmic force, providing a vivid exploration of clarity through sound.
The EP opens with Got Me Overnight, a showcase of François’s signature use of chopped vocals, driving a vibrant yet introspective journey that merges the club-ready energy of modern techno with an undercurrent of renewal. The pulse of Unpolarized draws listeners into a more minimalist, focused state, with repetitive rhythms designed to lock into the dancefloor while evoking a meditative mindset.

As the EP progresses, Certified DNA amplifies the emotional resonance, highlighting François’s ability to weave richly textured soundscapes. Lush pads blend with layered beats, evoking both introspection and euphoria. The journey culminates with Raw Motion, a visceral homage to the classic sounds of Chicago house, where down-pitched vocal loops and gritty textures combine to create a forward-thinking track that encapsulates the spirit of techno as both a physical and cerebral experience.
But even here, François X resists merely recreating past forms; this is techno that looks ahead, with an ear attuned to both tradition and evolution.

A Singular Vision

François X delivers a work that is both personal and expansive. It’s a deeply introspective project that not only reflects the artist’s philosophy but also encourages listeners to discover their own clarity within its grooves. For François, techno transcends mere sound—it becomes a medium for reaching a higher state of consciousness, one that extends beyond the dancefloor to touch something profound.

Straight Edge Society EP

Certified DNA

Premiere: François X - Certified DNA [XXL008]

*Through the eye of a needle, I peer into a vivid green forest. 
The world twists in psychedelic hues. 
Each leaf pulses with light, every bird's song intertwining with the rustling trees. 
Brightness surrounds, a living symphony.*

Egregore x Jolly - Engaging E-Motion

Subaerial feat. Egregore (05.03.2025)

XXLab avex François X - 31 Mars 2025

Techlab brings you EGREGORE in this episode. This DJ set titled "Standing at the Crossroad" contains mostly tracks from recent releases, with the intention to showcase a newly born intersection between different sub-genres of underground dance music, using the aesthetic of psy trance while borrowing rhythms from Techno, Tribe, Tek and Trance. This emerging crossroad of sound aesthetics and mindset is rapidly growing into a hybrid scene. EGREGORE, a Berlin-based DJ and producer from the Paris suburbs, crafts a sonic fusion of driving Techno, trippy Psy, and soaring Trance with an experimental edge. As the mastermind behind Terenor Records, he pulls from ambient depths to create boundary-pushing soundscapes. Known for transformative sets at Säule, RSO, Fuse, and Macadam, Egregore blends raw energy with hypnotic, otherworldly vibes, inviting listeners into a world where rhythm meets dream and chaos finds harmony.

EGREGORE | Techlab.bp Series Ep. 3 | 26/03/2025

Late December, Mäzen organized the last gathering of the year at Giri, Berlin.
The community atmosphere, the food cooked by Gabriele, and the sculptures on the wall laid the foundation for an evening of togetherness and sound exploration.

VORTEX INVITES 033: @dannydier43

For the 33rd episode, we hand the reins to Danny Dier — a Ukrainian DJ and producer whose sound is bold, impulsive, and impossible to pin down. He first made waves as a co-founder of Neutral in Lviv, the city’s pioneering queer-positive collective born during lockdown-era stillness.

His contribution is a restless, unapologetic ride through genre friction: raw techno edges collide with bass-driven grooves, flashes of trance nostalgia, and ghetto-flavored heat. A mix built on instinct and contrast — constantly twisting into unexpected corners, and never looking back.

𝙑𝙀𝙎𝙀𝙇𝙆𝘼 𝙋𝙊𝘿𝘾𝘼𝙎𝙏 092 | 𝙇𝙔 𝙎𝘼𝙎

LY SAS - Berlin based Georgian DJ and producer - blends groovy techno with deep ambient and hypnotic synth layers, redefining modular techno. Her musical journey began with guitar and songwriting, evolving into electronic music through Prague’s underground scene. She’s released on labels like Different Sound and Brvtalist Sound Recording, collaborating with Ryogo Yamamori. From Bassiani to STAUB, her sets captivate, shaping immersive, transformative dancefloor experiences.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: How was your first DJ gig?
𝙇𝙔 𝙎𝘼𝙎: My first club gig was unforgettable. I still remember standing there, thinking if this is really happening? Just from mixing at home to now being on stage... It felt surreal. I was definitely nervous at first. I even messed up a transition early on and had that 'uh oh, maybe not today' moment. But then I told myself, just enjoy it. And that shift changed everything. Even now, those simple words fuel every set I play. It taught me that energy matters more than perfection.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: Was there a specific moment after which you decided to make music full-time?
𝙇𝙔 𝙎𝘼𝙎: I don’t think there was one specific moment, it never really felt like a choice. I was always juggling different jobs alongside music, just figuring things out. But over time, music naturally started taking the lead. Gigs started coming in, and honestly, it’s hard to say no when the energy feels right. Now I’m grateful that most of my time is dedicated to music, connecting with like-minded people, and just growing with it all. It’s a journey, and I’m enjoying the ride.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: What inspires you and gives strengths?
𝙇𝙔 𝙎𝘼𝙎: New music always sparks inspiration for me, it’s like fuel. The support from the people close to me gives me real strength, the kind that keeps you grounded when things get heavy. Life itself, human experiences, the ups and downs... all of that feeds into what I create. I’ve always seen myself as a fighter, and that mindset gives me energy to keep moving forward. I also love being out there, whether it’s jam session bars, underground metal shows, or live music festivals, different genres, raw vibes, real emotion... that’s where I feel most connected and inspired.


𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: Berlin - your new home forever?
𝙇𝙔 𝙎𝘼𝙎: Berlin is definitely a forever home, and it feels like it always has been. But Georgia is home too, and I always make time to be there with family. This August, I’m spending the whole month there. Still, Berlin has this amazing energy and cultural richness that constantly inspires me to grow, in music and in life. It keeps pushing me in all the best ways. So the answer is - yes!

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: Any big plans for the near future?
𝙇𝙔 𝙎𝘼𝙎: I’m really excited about the music I have coming out soon, there’s a lot in the works. I’m also deep into some new projects, label and can’t wait to bring them to life. And of course, there are a few amazing clubs where I’ll be making my debut... always a thrill to keep excitement going!

Listen, enjoy and never forget:
