Based in Zagreb, Croatia. Experimenting with abstract, atmospheric elements, creating a tense and abstract, dark and dreamy landscapes. the rhythms are folded into irregular patterns that create a sense of uneasiness and tension. Sounds like distorted drones and vibrating and ragged synth tones blend into an immersive, meditative silence, while the ambient texture creates a sense of intimacy and isolation.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: OTON - United [ALC012]

Fuelled by an endless fascination with sound in all its forms, OTON has spent over a decade navigating the vast spectrum of electronic music through producing, mixing, mastering, and DJing — with live performance at the heart of his explorations in all sorts of mental and hypnotic techno.In 2021, he launched Alliance Club, initially as a platform to share his own music with a growing audience. Today, the project has evolved into an independent collective, party series and imprint, known for its integrity and support of alternative artists and scenes. Alliance Club now holds residencies at some of Belgium’s most iconic institutions, including Botanique, Fuse, C12, and Listen Festival. After previously exploring sonic territories characterized by breakbeat rhythms, psychedelic textures, tribal drumming, and raw mental energy, OTON unveiled his critically acclaimed LP, New Forms of Silence, in March 2025. This landmark release marked a decisive and profound shift in his artistic direction, signaling a new chapter in his sonic evolution. This autumn, OTON is set to return with its highly anticipated sequel, New Forms of Silence 2. This new offering delves even deeper into the introspective and resonant side of techno, embracing dubbier elements while demonstrating a clear reverence for the genre's classic roots. Yet, OTON continuously pushes the boundaries of sound design, infusing each track with his unmistakable signature, all released under the Alliance Club banner.

"Conceived as a vessel dedicated to a single frequency, Monolith 45 is born to trace the lineage of progressive trance - that tribal, hypnotic, and ceremonial sound that carved its path during the early 2000s, and which today we reclaim with reverence. Each release stands as a stone marker along this continuum: timeless signals that resonate equally with memory and vision. As with the broader work of Organic Signs, this new line will follow a dual path: rescuing forgotten gems from the past while also curating new music that embodies the same spirit. Monolith 45 becomes the place where past and present intertwine, shaping a narrative that honors tradition while opening new doors for exploration. The first monolith in the series carries with it two totems of the genre:

On the B-side, Ticon – Lo Mi Hi, a track that saw the light in 2001 on Digital Structures, one of the most influential labels of that era. Ticon are nothing short of mythical within this universe — pioneers whose sound blurred borders between deep grooves, psychedelic textures, and progressive structures, leaving an indelible mark that still resonates with dancers and producers worldwide.

With Monolith 45, we seek not only to preserve these transmissions but to project them into the present: to reawaken a sound that was always more than music, a tribal pulse, a ritual language that invited bodies and minds into collective trance.

This is our homage, our offering, and our way of extending the path forward."

𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰𝐬 : Primärwald III • Monochrome VA·003 [MCR05]

Born from a year of experimentation and reflection, Yasei's debut album on Optic Portal emerged in an off-grid studio in the Spanish mountains near the sea, where living in harmony with nature shaped both process and sound. Tested on the dancefloor yet conceived in solitude, "Hanakaze" merges organic atmospheres with shifting rhythmic architectures into immersive, genre-fluid techno with echoes of drum & bass and ambient. It’s a sonic statement that captures both intensity and emotion, a reflection of Yasei’s evolving sound identity.
