Romanian artist Tao Anra synthesises her hyperactive but sensitive personality into her music, playing from high energy to dark and groovy Techno. Her musical journey began in The Netherlands during her university years, following up with releases on 7Rituals, Kuukou Records and Kaligo Records. Tao now brings her ever-maturing Techno production to Victor Ruiz’s increasingly popular VOLTA imprint, with Ruiz himself joining Andra for a standout remix on ‘Gracias a la Vida’.

Kicking off with the title cut, ‘Gracias a la Vida’ dives straight into a flurry of racy grooves and blistering electronic musicality. Oozing with a blend of psy-inspired techno flavours from the outset - its fast-paced drums and driven hat sequences pave the way for an expanding platform of rifling bass notes and gritty synth leads that keep the energy at an explicit premium throughout. It would be criminal not to mention the captivating vocal topline that rears its head beautifully at the track’s most atmospheric intersections, making it a truly unique piece of music, capable of turning heads and capturing hearts on any dancefloor globally.

Victor Ruiz caps off the release with an emphatic spin on the original, electing a more traditional techno feel built around commanding kicks, sizzling percussion and ethereal nuances from start to finish. An archetypal stadium-sized peak-time bomb from Ruiz, bringing robust rhythms, cinematic-level musicality, celestial layers and another display of that absolutely stunning vocal.

Victor Ruiz’s VOLTA imprint continues its impressive run of releases with another undeniably potent offering. This time featuring Lisbon-based Argentine Ignacio Arfeli, who returns to the label via superb releases on Terminal M, Analytic Trail, and We Are The Brave, his ‘Feel The Bass’ EP holds no prisoners and perfectly encapsulates the gritty and raucous sonics that VOLTA is fast becoming renowned for. Released on 14th July, Ignacio’s second outing on the label presents a trio of equally unique and ultimately gripping peak-time cuts.

Kicking off with the title cut, ‘Feel the Bass’ welcomes you with open arms to its driving drum grooves and rising lead arpeggios before cranking up the heat with sawing bass, ethereal plucked synths and intensified percussive propulsion.

‘Infinity’ comes next, bringing dark and moody vibes from the outset. Thudding kicks, shuffled hats, and a rippling bassline melody steers the track forwards through a continuum of eerie vocal injections and dynamic synth stabs, bringing a murky futuristic persona from start to finish.

‘Imagine’ completes the EP with an interestingly progressive twist. Starting with a more industrial format, focusing on harshened hats and warehouse-worthy drum work, it quickly develops into a high-octane mainstage stomper with pulsating synths filtering up from the depths of the mix accompanied by creative fills, orbiting sample shots, robotic vocals, laser FX and another massive ripping bassline.

Victor Ruiz’s VOLTA imprint is fast becoming one of techno’s most prominent stables, thanks to a slew of releases from the label frontman himself and offerings from some of the most established names and exciting prospects in the genre.
The latest VOLTA outing features Ruiz alongside renowned Berlin techno stalwart Alex Stein. With a very close friendship that spans over 15 years, they have spent countless hours in the studio together and released a selection of successful releases between 2009 and 2013, but this new EP will mark the first collaboration for over a decade. To mark the 10-year hiatus, they decided to come back with a bang, and chose to make tracks which resonate with their older sound as well as bringing their new sounds to the mix, as a way to pay tribute to some of their first work together. It is definitely a very special comeback.

Alex and Victor’s ‘Human Robot’ EP encapsulates a three-track techno powerhouse - a trio of futuristic-inspired grittiness laced with ominous flows, sinister melodies and haunting vocals. The title cut ‘Human Robot’ kicks things off with a roughened electronic palette, capturing your intrigue with driving grooves, sweeping samples and intense glitchiness. The track’s racy journey pulls you through a kaleidoscope of riveting features with urgency, simulating an edge-of-the-galaxy-type pursuit vibe from start to finish.

‘The Heed’ comes next, bringing more weight and intent. Hard-hitting drums and shuffling hat grooves steer you forward alongside a ripping saw-synth lead, bass stabs and rising serene vocal layers to the point of atmospheric climax before elegantly reeling you into the second half of the voyage via a monstrously large throwdown featuring a more beefed-up version of that savage synth.

The release ends on ‘Darkplace’ featuring a gripping vocal topline from Born I, taking a more stripped-back approach to its predecessors. Much as the title would suggest, the track is pleasantly moody from the outset, building on thudding kicks and bellowing sub-bass notes as it rises from the depths via a series of intensifying layers of harmony that intertwine to create a broad sense of climax - arriving just in time to deliver another heavily danceable dose of raw driving techno goodness. Inspired by their older sounds, “Darkplace” is an ode to the past with a positive message for the future and what’s to come.

Victor Ruiz’s VOLTA continues its prominence with another emphatic techno offering, providing the platform for a head-turning label debut from rising Brazilian starlet Lutgens as he delivers his “Fénix” EP with full force this September. Following releases on Panterre Musique, Prototype Music, IAMT and several others, Lutgens steps out of the studio with another undeniably potent package, spanning two hypnotic peak-time jams that showcase the full depth of his production skills.
Kicking off with the title cut “Fénix,” Lutgens wastes no time unloading that distinct ethereal-laced sound VOLTA is becoming synonymous with. Pulsating grooves, rippling low-frequency rumble, and rising musical resonance are all at play here, facilitating an expanding ebb and flow filled with atmospheric crescendos and deep-plunging breaks - hard-hitting interplanetary techno at its absolute finest yet again.
“Sinistro” brings the release to a head with another firm hand strike. Urgent, racy rhythms drive the track forwards through a gauntlet of sinister sonic characteristics as it careers alongside another electrifying low-end roar throughout, with shards of acid and melodic techno fragmenting into the mix.

As Victor Ruiz’s VOLTA imprint heads towards its first anniversary, the label prepares to welcome back a frequent contributor in the form of Berlin-based techno titan Alex Stein. With an impressive catalogue of releases on many of the genre’s most-respected labels, Stein is back on VOLTA with yet another masterful display of diversely captivating techno prowess in the form of “Tunnel Vision” - an all-encompassing three-track EP.

Starting with the title cut, “Tunnel Vision” is a pacy, dancefloor-ready, melodic masterclass. Riding a tide of arpeggiating musical elements from the outset, this combination of futuristic techno, electro and breakbeat, which comes packed to the hilt with firm grooves, interplanetary vocals and ripping sonics, will have you energised and moving from start to finish with ease.

“Dopemine 23” comes next, cutting a darker, more assertive line. Another stellar exhibition of robust drum sequencing and gripping musical arrangement keeps you locked into this vampiric acid techno stomper as it continuously cranks up the heat.

The release ends on “Reson8”, completing the trifecta of potent mainstage techno warheads. A duck and dive of rippling bass and thumping drums, laced with fleeting ominous vocals and hissing percussive drive, combining to carve out a high-octane peak-time bomb.

Victor Ruiz - ENERGY (Orffee + Abele - HIGH VOLTAGE Remix)

It’s no news that Victor Ruiz have been producing authentic music from day one. With a need to incorporate that sound more and more, VOLTA was created.

“I’ve always felt that my music was somewhat different and most times hard to place on a certain label. I saw many other artists feeling the same. There was a gap. That’s when I knew it was time for me to create VOLTA.”
Victor wants to create a new platform that not just releases music but also connects artists and human beings.

A percentage of the profits of the label goes to charities and causes chosen by all the artists that are involved.

“I want to bring consciousness to our scene that we should not just make and play music. There’s so much more beyond that. Helping people should be one of the main focuses in our lives. That’s why we are artists, to connect and to help.”
