TM8 Q: How do you go about putting a mix together?
A: "I start creating my sets with an attitude, often visualised in similar colors and translated to feelings, that I want to explore based on the music Ive recently found. This attitude can be found in tracks that differ in their genre, but share similarities in texture and design.  A lot of tracks have elements from multiple genres, where the track can seem like minimal techno because of its arrangement, but the kick is mixed in a way that resembles tribe or gabber. I always struggle with choosing a genre for a set, but I find that I can still create a continuous story by taking an element from the current track and gluing it together with the next song through a similar element in the upcoming song. But in the end the most important way for me to work is intuitively, always being emotionally present and aware if the upcoming track is leading away or towards the core attitude of the set."

Oslo-based DJ and producer IRA delivers a psychedelic, warped-out mix brimming with other-worldly melodies, minimalistic harmonics and industrial soundscapes. Having started out a few years ago in the Oslo rave scene via Enter Tribe, she has since co-founded the club concept Sirena alongside artists Vilde Wahl and Samuel Feste. As a talented producer, IRA has released her dark and dreamy productions on labels like MUSA, Global Pace and In Orbit. We're so excited to add her to our own label later this year.

interlude

Jervis Bay-based producer 5COTCH has produced some heat with his track, “Feel” — a high-octane hardgroove track built to shake walls and bodies in equal measure. Blending tribal percussion, loopy rhythmic tension, and relentless drive, the track nods to the early 2000s hardgroove and breakbeat eras, while carving its own lane in the modern techno landscape.

Driven by a rolling bassline and textured layers of drum work, "Feel" channels peak-time energy with no filler. It’s made for DJs who thrive on keeping the floor in motion, with a structure tailored for seamless mixing and maximum tension.

Whether in a dark warehouse or on a sunrise festival stage, “Feel” is a proper utility tool for techno selectors pushing fast, funky, and percussive sounds.

PREMIERE: 5COTCH - Feel

Argentine-born and Chile-based producer CementO returns to Holiday Addict with Unsane Vision, a techno EP that functions as both sonic time capsule and personal manifesto. Composed largely of unreleased material dating back two decades, this release captures the raw tension of an era marked by global anxiety — filtered through distorted rhythms, relentless BPMs, and politically charged samples that still sting with relevance.

The sound design is unapologetically abrasive. Kick drums land like blunt-force trauma, wrapped in analog hiss and saturated beyond conventional thresholds. Synths don’t shimmer — they groan, corrode, and rupture across the stereo field, channeling a type of industrial decay that feels less like aesthetic choice and more like existential condition. CementO leans into chaos, rejecting polish in favor of emotional directness.

What unifies the EP is its refusal to compromise. Each track is built to provoke, with dense rhythmic programming that borders on hostile and textures that demand physical spaces — dark clubs, illegal warehouses, nowhere polite. George W. Bush-era speech fragments interspersed across the record don’t serve as commentary; they’re used like debris, embedded in the concrete mix of CementO’s sonic architecture.

Unsane Vision doesn’t seek approval — it asserts presence. It’s techno that snarls rather than seduces, grounded in a DIY ethos and a clear desire to sound different for every pair of ears. For listeners drawn to the genre’s confrontational edges, CementO delivers something bracing, unfiltered, and fiercely rooted in its own logic.
