Brazilian Berliner, Rotciv returns with an uplifting New Beat-esque bomb. Brooklyn's Facets with a sluggy EBM burner featuring Alpha & Necromante. Melbourne's Stockholm Syndrome au, makes his label debut feat. Lusca on this slow wave swamp hit. Lastly, Italian Astroloop returns to the label with a post-punk new romantic acid trip to close the whole V/A. For all clubs big and small. fat and wide. short and tall. Love Never Dies. We will never fall.

PREMIERE: ROTCIV - Change Is Coming

Our next guest comes from a South American metropolis and recently made his debut on Ombra INTL: Medellin's Ravetop is a versatile producer with his own and self-titled label, a true filter of all music captured through his listening experience overtime. He preserves the purest components of its roots, looking for diversity and innovation and describes himself as "Electro Clash lover, House & Techno rhythm player, EBM, New Beat and Italo synthesis seeker". Colombia has its new rising talent and Blank Wave a great catch for guest mix no. 16!

Indie Dance The Mix Series Günce Acı

Anyone following this guest mix series will probably know our next guest. He’s been a huge inspiration for Blank Wave, and one of the main reasons this platform exists in the first place.

Luca Venezia aka Curses — the Berlin-based DJ, producer, and label curator — blends New Wave, Post-Punk, Italo-Disco and EBM into dark, romantic club soundscapes that bridge nostalgia and modern energy (like no other). His latest album Another Heaven (2024) showcases his evolving sound, following Incarnadine (2022) and his debut Romantic Fiction (2018).

Together with Skelesys, he brought the duo Silver Tears to life, delivering a guitar-driven mixture of Post-Punk and Dark Wave with haunting melodies and cinematic textures. Curses also curates the brilliant Next Wave Acid Punx compilation series and runs Ombra International, a label dedicated to shadowy dance music from around the globe. His live sets, often featuring bassist Dame Bonnet, add a raw, post-punk edge to the dance floor and you should visit his live show whenever possible. With his monthly radio show Together Alone, Curses continues to navigate the twilight zone between wave and club culture — making him one of the defining voices of this darkly romantic movement.

Enough said, Blank Wave Guest Mix 115  — an exclusive spellbinding journey made just for this series incl. some rare vinyls, some all time favs and lots of premieres. Curses forever!
