You Hold Me: Moody and Atmospheric

The second track, You Hold Me, takes a different approach, featuring robotic vocals and a slower tempo. I had a blast creating this track, as it's a departure from my usual style and allows me to explore new sonic landscapes. The result is a moody and atmospheric track that's perfect for those who appreciate a more introspective sound.

Shadows: Haunting Vocals

The final track, Shadows, features haunting vocals with the lyrics "I'm living in your shadows, I'm living on your mind, remember your first time and it's safe, the key is to find you." These words evoke a sense of mystery and intrigue, and I'm excited to see how listeners will interpret them. The track is a reflection of my experimentation with vocal processing and atmospheric sound design.

Ria Mares is a DJ and sound producer who crafts deep, immersive audio journeys in the Hypnotic Techno genre. Her signature sound blends high-tech synthesis with a natural aesthetic. Inspired by ethnic motifs, organic tones, and a dark, enveloping atmosphere, she creates a sonic space where organic and technological worlds converge, forming a path where each listener can discover something unique.

The storyline of the mix:
This musical journey begins in the desert — silent and boundless, where nothing exists but sand, mirages, and our cozy shelter from which we can observe the vast beauty of the landscape.

Gradually, we move closer to thick vegetation and wild jungles. Here, the rhythms of tribal dances become clearer and more alive. We pause to connect with the earth and absorb the raw energy of the tribe.

Our path then takes us to a highly developed civilization — where beings invent technology, craft advanced devices, and build ships to explore outer space.
On one of those ships, we travel past asteroids, stars, galaxies, and unknown planets...

Eventually, we land on one of them — a planet with its own unique atmosphere. It is bright, warm, and beautiful. As we glide through its landscapes, we remember that very same cozy place from where we once gazed at the desert — at the very beginning of this sonic voyage.

VA07 is the seventh chapter in a series dedicated to sonic exploration and boundary-pushing techno. This 6-track compilation gathers six visionary artists, each offering a distinct interpretation of the genre—from immersive ambient depths to relentless, high-velocity grooves. Together, they form a cohesive journey through the full emotional and rhythmic spectrum of contemporary techno.

The album opens in a state of weightless suspension, where deep ambient textures blur the line between stillness and movement. Gradually, pulsating low frequencies and intricate percussion patterns emerge, drawing the listener into a hypnotic state. Midway, the record unfolds into mechanical precision and layered synth work, evoking both introspection and urgency. The final tracks propel the experience forward with driving basslines, syncopated rhythms, and a raw, club-focused intensity—culminating in a cathartic finale that feels both futuristic and primal.

*VA07* is a seamless blend of atmosphere and momentum—an anthology of sound design, rhythm, and emotion crafted for both late-night introspection and peak-time energy. Each artist contributes a unique fragment of the whole, shaping an arc that moves fluidly from deep ambient techno to fast, driven force.

With her signature sensitivity for mood and flow, she shapes a narrative built entirely from tracks by the producers and labels who inspire her the most.

As always, Caliacra approaches her selection with intention and instinct. “During my preps, before I even start to record, I realized that my mood on the tracks changed — and somehow I turned that into a mix,” she explains. “I always say to myself: if the music makes me want to dance but I could also sit and chill during a set, it’s the perfect vibe for me.”

The result is a fluid blend of movement and introspection — a snapshot of Caliacra’s evolving inspiration and her unmistakable touch behind the decks.

Rituals – Lindberg (EP Description)
By Spanish producer Lindberg, “Rituals” is an immersive exploration of repetition, tension, and slow-burning transformation.
Lindberg builds this EP around the idea of sonic ceremony—patterns that evolve through patience rather than force, and emotions that surface subtly from beneath the mix. Across the project, he blends organic warmth with electronic restraint, crafting a spacious world where every element feels intentional.

The track “Constante”, which anchors the EP, unfolds with hypnotic steadiness: shimmering pads, grainy textures, and a pulse that moves forward with quiet determination. Its progression is gradual but gripping, like a ritual performed in cycles—each repeat slightly different, each layer revealing a new shade of movement or meaning. The piece stretches across more than five minutes yet feels timeless, inviting the listener into a meditative state where rhythm becomes mantra.

Throughout Rituals, Lindberg leans into subtle contrasts: softness against density, structure against drift, clarity against haze. The result is an EP that feels introspective and deeply atmospheric, perfect for late-night listening, creative focus, or any moment when the world slows down enough to let detail shine.

Rituals captures Lindberg’s signature ability to blend emotional depth with minimalistic precision—a quiet, powerful journey where every sound feels like part of a larger, deliberate ceremony.

Emotions is a deep, immersive techno album where Ddroga translates inner states into rhythm, texture, and pressure. Drawing from the hypnotic flow of long-form club tracks like Holli, Dreams, and Monstera, the album unfolds patiently, allowing each emotion to breathe, evolve, and transform on the dancefloor.

Across its extended compositions, Emotions balances restraint and intensity: steady, driving grooves anchor the body, while subtle melodic fragments and atmospheric layers speak to the mind. Pulses repeat like thoughts you can’t shake, pads drift in and out like memories, and tension is built not through excess, but through control. The sound is raw yet introspective—functional techno with a reflective core.

Rather than chasing peaks, Ddroga focuses on continuity and mood. Each track feels alive, growing over time, inviting listeners into a meditative state where emotion is felt physically through bass, space, and repetition. Emotions is music for late nights and dim rooms, for movement and introspection, capturing the quiet complexity that lives beneath the surface of the club.
