Disregarding all conventions, Otis explores the many faces of the club. Traversing sonic dimensions through humour and instinct, few are as daring with their selections. Like listening to a playlist on shuffle, he connects songs through surprising disruption – genres are exploited and transgressed, moving swiftly from avant-pop to vocal weirdness to thumping beats. This flair is firmly grounded in his role as the founder of Slagwerk, a Brussels-based label notorious for their parties. Since its inception in 2017, Slagwerk has quietly emerged as one of the most consistent and versatile sources of experimental electronic music, with releases from the likes of ssaliva, 0comeups, and Bby Eco.

"It's a collection of songs that are a fair representation of what I've been playing at gigs in the past months, showcasing a dynamic range of sounds that have defined my latest sets. This mix not only reflects my current musical direction but also features a lot of music from close friends and artists I've had the pleasure of meeting throughout the years."

NR Sound Mix 047 Otis

u.r.trax is a Producer, DJ, and vocalist from Paris, France. She delivers eclectic DJ performances, defending a diverse sonic selection. From trippy techno to rough and cold electro, “backroom” dark trance, and deconstructed rhythms, u.r.trax advocates for “immersive music for the mind.”
Her first language was music. A drummer since her very tender childhood, she started producing in her early teenage years and focused on club music a few years later.
In 2020, she released her first record, “Folge Mir,” on Hector Oaks’ KAOS. In 2021, she released her debut EP, “Moral Krisis,” on the sub-label she was given: “KAOS-URTRAX.” In 2022, she released "Third Ear" on Nina Kraviz’s trip. She gained the support of the main pioneers of the scene such as Richie Hawtin, Ellen Allien, and Tiga, to cite a few.
Since 2023, she has composed music for the Parisian fashion label Coperni, unveiling wider musical skills. In 2024, she launched her own imprint, ultra rare, and is now preparing an album.

"This mix is basically my “summer mix". It gathers all the sonic colours I’m into these days. It starts with soft, ethereal textures, then explores latincore/guaracha rhythms, techno-trance, some dubstep. Overall it is heavily percussive. I included my favorites producers and labels at the moment such as Hekt from Copenhagen, Flore and her label POLAAR from Lyon, my dear Tatyana Jane from Paris, etc..."
