Berlin's electronic music scene is doing what it does best, with the release of a beautifully diverse VA compilation from Art Bei Ton, showcasing various shades of techno. This collection, available on Bandcamp from October 16th, features standout tracks like Shadow Appearance by German producer Mordio.

The track conjures an otherworldly presence, as if a creature is personified through sound, evolving over time and evoking images of vast desert landscapes. Rhythmic vibrations, dynamic drums, and hypnotic pads draw the listener into a state of flow—grounded yet soaring above.

Precise in every way, this is another fantastic addition to Mordio's growing repertoire. Definitely one to have on repeat for a while.

Pyschometrics Hidden Layers

PREMIERE: Mordio - Shadow Appearance [Art Bei Ton]

Hypnotic Black Magic, based between Berlin and Lisbon, has become a defining figure in the deep techno circuit. As the visionary behind Art Bei Ton, a label, podcast, and event series, she’s been instrumental in shaping a more inclusive and experimental corner of the scene. With a taste rooted in hypnotic techno, ambient textures, and ritualistic rhythms, HBM’s sets are known for weaving loopy patterns, groovy basslines, and dreamlike atmospheres. From Tresor to VENT and beyond, she’s built a global reputation not just for her electrifying sets but for fostering spaces where FLINTA* and queer artists thrive. Through projects like Ambient Sleepers and events spanning New York to Seoul, she channels her DIY ethos into curating experiences that transcend music, offering cathartic moments for dancefloors worldwide.

Hypnotic Black Magic’s mix for Delayed seamlessly reflects her artistry. Over the course of an hour, she conjures a spellbinding atmosphere, opening with eerie female vocals and liquid basslines that ripple and shift like a mirage. The set takes on a nostalgic dimension, featuring some of her favorite tracks from the mid-2010s, proof that timelessness in techno isn’t about release dates but resonance. HBM delivers a technically flawless mix, creating a steady ascent that holds tension without ever feeling forced. This is hypnotic techno at its finest: immersive without excess, subtle yet captivating (I know, I know, this adjective is way overused nowadays, but it fits perfectly to describe this mix). Surrender to the mix; before you know it, the hour has slipped through your fingers.
