After this we ended this first year with a huge bang, we kick off the second season with the same energy! Herbrido is back to bring the heat, and hes not alone: the Enveloper joins him for his debut on LAPS with a brutal Peak-Time collab named "Navigate Yourself". He's been in the game for years and one of the hottest names in the wild west of Germany! After his first single in 2017 his producing career took off, even catapulting him on Beatport-Charts #1 and opening the door for him releasing on most of the biggest labels in the game! It's a real pleasure for us to welcome him on our label!

Enjoy!

Miracle Beats - Gleis 44 [Live Cut | 06.04.2024] Peaktime (134-142 BPM)

This is something special. Four outstanding tracks from the founders of LAPS Recordings. Starting with Van Kost's more experimental UK influenced basslines, Stabs and Go opens this EP deep and vibrant! Ekko follows with his signature sound design and a straightforward peaktime influenced techno anthem. Hans Pech is also known for his melody driven productions and dj sets. On this EP he delivers a trance influenced smily maker. Lenn Reich closes as known. With the darker dancefloors in mind, this production is definitely something for the lovers of darker and more industrial techno. Four founders, four sounds.

Lenn Reich - Dreamer

Hans Pech - No Drama

Ekko - Primal Instinct

Van Kost - Stabs And Go

Continuing this year with two new artists joining the LAPS family: Trip Advisor and Noah Shah. Trip Advisor began his DJ career in 2018, emerging from the rave scene around Hannover. Over time, he has developed a unique style that fuses Melodic Techno with Peak-Time elements. His talent for storytelling through harmonic progressions and driving beats is unmistakable. With “Anomaly,” he delivers an atmospheric, energetic, and deeply immersive track. Noah Shah, a DJ and producer from southern Germany, specializes in Melodic, Afro, and Peak-Time Techno. Following in his father’s footsteps, he debuted on Magic Island Deep in 2017, where he now serves as A&R. Over the years, he has gained recognition through platforms like Sunshine Radio’s Mixmission, Brillux Beats, and A State of Trance (ASOT). Noah’s remix of “Anomaly” offers a slower, more emotional and progressive take, leaning into Afro-House influences. The result is a creative reinterpretation that complements the energy of the original. Two distinct versions of “Anomaly,” both captivating and beautiful in their own way, showcasing the diverse talents of these rising artists.

Mind Chemistry is the new duo project of Ekko and Hans Pech and stands for a unique sound that combines different techno subgenres and influences to create something completely new. The DJ / producer duo stands for a unique sound that combines the best of both artists' sound worlds.

The two have been DJing in clubs since 2017 and were introduced to each other in 2020 at Gleis 44, where they are still resident DJs today. It was in 2021 when the two of them first played a set together and immediately noticed the synergy of their sound.

In 2022, they founded the underground label LAPS Recordings together with two other DJs and soon after,  they released their first EP together. After a lot of positive feedback and successful gigs all over Germany, the two finally decided to officially start a duo.

With a broad spectrum from Melodic Techno to Peak-Time to Hardtechno and Trance, they stand out in every genre and send their listeners on an emotional rollercoaster ride. The sound can best be described as melodic, driving and emotional and is characterized by both being incredibly diverse while still harmonizing perfectly with each other.
