Secret Keywords strikes again, ushering in the seventh edition of its digital Split Series, featuring the electrifying talents of Kvest and Renrof, “Large Language Model” is a blend of raw classic energy and innovative soundscapes. Emerging from the vibrant streets of Bosnia & Herzegovina, now Berlin-based, Kvest is a force to be reckoned with. His signature sound, a harmonious blend of traditional techno rhythms with a twist of modernity, has graced labels like Kin-Ben in Japan, Tauten in Serbia, and Impact Mechanics. Each track is a tapestry of classic techno, woven with intricate keys, relentless grooves, and the raw power of drum beats, all culminating in an explosion of saturated pads. A Spanish sensation, Renrof is carving his niche in the techno universe. His unique approach, characterised by a rich tapestry of FM synthesis and ethereal strings, is paired with potent grooves that promise to take listeners on a transcendent journey. His impressive portfolio includes collaborations with Planet Rhythm, Elart Records, and Alleanza, marking him as a vanguard of technos future. "Large Language Model" is more than just an album; its an invitation to traverse the depths of underground techno. Designed for connoisseurs and newcomers alike, it beckons you to dive into a world where musical boundaries are redefined and the finest beats await discovery.

Elements of Joy / Stave - SPLIT#4
Pre-order now available: pielectronics.bandcamp.com/
Release Date: February 14th, 2025
Format: 12'' / digital
----------------------------------------------------------
SPLIT#4 is the final release for the 10th anniversary year of the π project, featuring Elements of Joy (a.k.a. UVB) and Stave, both returning to the label after their earlier appearances with PI08 and PI07 respectively.  The vinyl release showcases six original tracks—three from each artist—with bonus tracks included in the digital release. 

On the A-side, Elements of Joy delivers 3 original tracks of New-Beat leaning techno, including one song that features vocals by Zanias.  
The opening track, "Prutaneousa (A1)" connects the dots between his previous entry on the label and this one with the use of retro, 80s inspired vocal samples, but this time on a rather driving beat sequence than an industrial/noise one. 
"A Master of Distress (A2)" dives deeper into a hypnotic mood while “Vampiric Habits (A3)” takes it even further to an ethereal atmosphere through the input of Australian vocalist Zanias. 

On the B-side, Chicago producer Stave presents his signature hypnotic, broken-beat techno. The side opens with "Weingart (B1)", a characteristically Stave textured track. "900MPH (B2)" combines IDM elements with dynamic broken rhythms, while "Capital, Selves (B3)" blends experimental with Grey Area influences. 

The digital release includes two more bonus tracks: an energetic EBM techno piece by Elements of Joy and an atmospheric techno by Stave, completing this diverse split release. 

SPLIT#4 is a fitting close to the project's milestone year, celebrating a decade of our π vision.
