Human Lessons #108 - Sleep Exchange

Introducing - Catartsis - Ainsi Vient Le Doute [ SousTraitance ]

Somewhere between memory sediment and subconscious drift, “Les matières errantes” marks the second solo expedition of the Sous Traitance timeline, this time led by Catarsis (aka Mathieu Bonnafous).

This new EP from the Parisian producer gathers four elusive productions, each one forged in a different temporal layer across a period of seven years. Oscillating between states, they reveal a raw urge to blur genre borders, where bass-heavy architectures bend into murky techno spirals, breakbeat fragments dissolve into dubstep low-frequency voids, and drum & bass pulses flirt with collapse. There’s no linear path here, only shifting zones and unstable rhythms, moving like tectonic plates beneath the surface of club logic.

A disjointed archive, a driftwork of forms—"Les matières errantes” doesn’t narrate a story so much as it exposes its own erosion. It’s a confrontation of industrial and natural environments for an unique, organic sound, making Catartsis a key figure in the renewal of the French Techno scene.

Introducing - Christian Duka - To Grow

“Mi costruisco e mi distruggo, I grow tall and deep, dhe e gjej veten”

Crescere is a 3-track EP released by Christian Duka, a producer, sound artist and DJ from the Albanian diaspora. The EP is a personal meditation on growth, capturing emotional states tied to transformation, vulnerability, and renewal.

Genre-fluid by design, Crescere blends emotive ambient guitars, slow-burning trip-hop-inflected breakbeats, and spectral dub-ambient.

Introducing - Abo Abo - Muscovite

Two resonant voices from Florence’s underground converge in this powerful collaboration between Abo Abo (Daniele Carcassi) and TOMO (Tommaso Andorlini) —  The co-founders of the DE RIO collective and record label both deeply rooted and active in Italy’s experimental electronic scene well  known for pushing the limits of tribe and mental sound presents their first LP on the Brussels based imprint and collective Alliance.
Abo Abo’s multifaceted practice moves fluidly between clubs, theaters, and DIY spaces, blending academic machinery with raw underground energy that oscillates between precision and chaos. Whether through DJ sets, performances, or installations, Abo Abo treats sound as a living, evolving material — a fluid architecture shaped by space and raw impulse he explores as a territory in constant mutation.
TOMO brings a vision shaped by fast-paced rhythms, glitch minimalism, and tactile sound design. His sets are deeply physical, polyrhythmic journeys where IDM, deep techno, trance and post-tribal textures bleed into one another. Every element in his sonic landscape pulses with tension — somatic, spectral, alive.
Together, they craft an immersive, borderless language where loop-driven hypnosis meets granular abstraction. This LP on Alliance Club bridges their worlds: club energy and sound research, intuition and structure — vibrating between movement and stillness

Introducing OTON - H3KDP4 [ALLIANCE]

Fuelled by an endless fascination with sound in all its forms, OTON has spent over a decade navigating the vast spectrum of electronic music through producing, mixing, mastering, and DJing — with live performance at the heart of his explorations in all sorts of mental and hypnotic techno.In 2021, he launched Alliance Club, initially as a platform to share his own music with a growing audience. Today, the project has evolved into an independent collective, party series and imprint, known for its integrity and support of alternative artists and scenes. Alliance Club now holds residencies at some of Belgium’s most iconic institutions, including Botanique, Fuse, C12, and Listen Festival. After previously exploring sonic territories characterized by breakbeat rhythms, psychedelic textures, tribal drumming, and raw mental energy, OTON unveiled his critically acclaimed LP, New Forms of Silence, in March 2025. This landmark release marked a decisive and profound shift in his artistic direction, signaling a new chapter in his sonic evolution. This autumn, OTON is set to return with its highly anticipated sequel, New Forms of Silence 2. This new offering delves even deeper into the introspective and resonant side of techno, embracing dubbier elements while demonstrating a clear reverence for the genre's classic roots. Yet, OTON continuously pushes the boundaries of sound design, infusing each track with his unmistakable signature, all released under the Alliance Club banner.
