03 Selective Response - Power Hungry
04 Selective Response - Purifier

Backspin's next release brings Selective Response, a prominent figure in America's techno scene, to the forefront with his Inner Heaven EP. Known for his hard-hitting techno rollers, he brings his expertise and passion to Backspin, delivering a release that aligns seamlessly with the label's mission to rejuvenate the Hardgroove sound of the early 2000s, blending releases of legendary pioneers with those of fresh talents.

The EP opens with Hells Bells, a doomy track that encapsulates Selective Response's signature style, featuring relentless rhythms and an underworldly bell theme. The title track Inner Heaven follows, offering a, contrasting atmosphere, blending ethereal elements with driving beats to explore the balance between intensity and tranquility. On the flip side, Power Hungry delivers a potent mix of pulsating basslines, sharp percussion and industrial elements, embodying the raw energy that defines the Hardgroove genre. The EP concludes with Purifier, a track more in line with the EP’s title track, merging driving loops with intricate sound design, leaving listeners in a state of ecstatic trance.

exclusive | Just_Me - Backspin | Interkom

Some records feel like a risk. Others feel like a reset button. Berlin’s Just_Me launches the wax wing of his new label Interkom Records with Backspin EP - a four-track statement that doesn’t just flex the catalogue number but locks in a full 360 snapshot of the sound he’s been quietly shaping for over a decade: part House, part Tech, part Electro daydream, part Garage-tinted flashback. All functional, no filler.

Flip the record and you land on “Backspin” itself - the title track is pure arcade energy for the afterhours. A punchy drum engine locks in while a wobbly bassline and spiralling synths flicker through like neon tubes over a warehouse floor. It’s the kind of cut that winks at classic breakbeat DNA without losing its straight 4am stomp.

All functional, no filler.

Enter Harry Wills, who grabs the original by the collar and pulls it deeper into the breakbeat back room - all jungle nods, crunchy breaks, and that signature bounce that’s turned his name into a surefire sign the crowd’s about to get loose. A tight, confident flip that doesn’t overshadow but completes the package.

Torture the Artist is a webzine, or a magazine made for the internet, geared towards those with a passion for contemporary electronic music, with subgenres including Techno, Tech House, Deep House and Eletronica, as well as a small amount of Indie and Alternative. Founded in 2014 by Holger Breuer, a German native and lover of the arts, Torture the Artist now consists of five team members from all around the world.

In addition to publishing interviews, music reviews, DJ charts and track premieres, the webzine hosts out a  podcast series called 'art:casts'. This medium gives DJs and producers the artistic freedom to highlight their different musical styles while not being restricted by factors such as setting, and connecting them to a wider audience. 

Being in its ninth year, Torture the Artist has gained a strong and active online support group, including music enthusiasts to label managers and artists themselves, creating a cohesive community with music as their bond.

I collect bucket hats & serve up fresh, hot beats. Enjoy em in house, at home, or on-the-go. Menu includes but ain’t exclusive to: house, techno, funk/soul, & booty music.
