Templum, the new label project from Brooklyn-based DJ and producer Auspex, marks the
beginning of a new frontier in sound for the NYC artist and curator, as he brings his previous
label project Oath to a close. Templum signifies not only a shift in sound, but a change of
perspective, moving away from shadowy things with hard edges, and looking upwards,
embracing the wide, sometimes mystical, sometimes eerie soundscapes of the cosmos and
solar systems beyond the scope of sight. Templum will be hosting work of like-minded artists
and producers that embrace the ethos of this source of inspiration. In the words of the
legendary Jeff Mills: “Techno wasn’t designed to be dance music. It was designed to be a
futurist statement.”

"The Absent Guard" EP [TMPL001] - PREVIEWS

Opener 'Transdimensional Malaise' layers up overloaded circuitry with bleeping synth sequences and a barrage of drums that power into the next dimension, whilst 'Child of Infinity' drops you into a world of circling and loopy synth motifs, menacing drums and bass and fractured vocal fragments that are the only signs of human life.
'Emergence' is a thudding deep techno transmission run through with pulses of synth sent from distant planets, and 'Phantasm' gets trippy with psychedelic colours and a mirage of shimmering keys that sound like paranoid voices deep in the back of your mind. There's a sense of impending cosmic warfare at the dark, pounding heart of 'Divine Synthesis', and that tension carries on through the tightly coiled, anxious techno funk of 'The Absent Guard'. 'Providence' provides a zoned-out trip to infinity with serene pads calming the mind as the drums march on with a sense of subtle hope for a brighter future.

Phantasm

A desert moon where machines outlive their makers, whispering to one another in rust.
A planet where time fractures, each sunrise arriving from a different century. 
A soldier who returns from an astrally-projected war to find his body claimed by another pilot. 
A star that sings, pulling enchanted travelers into a perilous orbit with its voice. 
And deep within the asteroid belt, a market thrives where the future is sold by the hour.
All that and more in Amazing Worlds of Templum: Vol. I !!!

Templum begins its next chapter with Amazing Worlds of Templum: Vol. I — ten tracks from nine international producers who are shaping the direction of raw and hypnotic techno. Each contribution reflects a distinct artistic voice, drawn together into a wider tapestry of sound. The release also sets the stage for what’s to come, as Templum begins to showcase and elevate compositions from like-minded artists across the global technosphere.

The collection opens with Brooklyn-based label head Auspex on intro duties with “The Nature of Reality”—pulsing, arpeggiated sine waves dissolving into reverb baths over atmospheric drones, while a lost transmission on human perception cuts through the swarm. Gannein, Berlin-based by way of Paris, follows with “Psychic Primitive”—a grooving array of glitching metallic drums, pulsating bass, and an alien entomoid soundscape. From Spain, BØHMcontributes “Still Unclear,” a tunneling rhythmic workout punctuated by skittering chirps, like a species of strange creatures communicating through trills and warbles.

Auspex returns with “Equilibrium,” a funky dance floor heater fusing percussive groove, warped atmospherics, and chopped-and-screwed vocals. From Buenos Aires, DAS ratchets up both tension and velocity with “Desolate Abyss,” a high-speed voyage into the darkest regions of space. Ket Robinson—Berlin-by-way-of-Paris producer, DJ, and KR Records founder—takes the controls on “Drone Vision” with dense kicks, seismic subs, and risers that push tension to a fever pitch.

Brazil’s VERUAH strips things down with “Anthem,” groove-driven and direct, collapsing into a disorienting breakdown before snapping back into a sizzling cadence. India’s Audio Units, a dynamic DJ/production duo, deliver “Obsidian Nebula”—a heaving behemoth from the outer reaches, cranking the heat and applying atomic pressure.

The release closes in Brooklyn: first with the prolific BRÄLLE on “Nightly Meltdowns”—a war-hardened juggernaut hurtling through wormholes at warp speed—and finally Ramsey Neville with “Reactive Morality,” a propulsive alarm call, relentless and unyielding, signaling full speed ahead into frontiers unknown.
