Resonance Spectrum Records proudly launches with its debut EP, Love Colours.
Founded by Nickon Faith, the label is dedicated to delivering warm, eclectic frequencies across the full spectrum of dance music. This first release is a statement of intent — vibrant, psychedelic, and deeply immersive — featuring a standout remix from On Rotation’s own Lisene.

The title track Love Colours opens the journey with hypnotic grace. A soft trance pulse guides you through layers of soaring pads and intricate instrumentation, gradually building into a wash of psychedelic euphoria.

Inner Thoughts shifts gears with intensity. Driving techno grooves underpin celestial, distorted flutes and aggressive yet elegant sound design. It’s a masterclass in psychedelic tension and release — intricate, trippy, and perfectly built for both the club and the open-air festival stage.

Lisene closes out the EP with a sublime reimagining of Inner Thoughts. His signature style bends the track into a more broken, ethereal space, full of shimmering detail. Undulating rhythms, spacious textures, and soul-touching pads give the remix a dreamlike quality — simultaneously grounded and otherworldly.

Love Colours is out now on Resonance Spectrum Records — a bold first transmission from a label tuned into the deeper frequencies of the dancefloor.

PREMIERE: Nickon Faith - Inner Thoughts (Lisene remix)

Town was packed and crowded, the traffic was a riot.

Everywhere it seemed as though lights flickered and flashed – glimmering and dancing against a backdrop of black, helping to make pretend that there was some sort of light or hope left in the city.

One wrong manoeuvre these days and it could be lights out.

One wrong manoeuvre these days and the whole game was up.

He weaved between the traffic and looked out for anyone who might be on the hunt, this was his town for the evening and he better not be caught short.

First Epoque releases a wicked, dubbed out set of weirdo bass mutations on Redstone Press as part of an EP called The Antonelli Scrolls. This was our pick of the bunch.

Longtime TX techno scene veteran Xander Harris is back for blood on the reactivated TRU label from fellow Lone Star cyborg Gavin Guthrie (TX Connect) as well as DJ/Producer Xinexport.

Prepare to enter a world of scuzzy synths buzzing like cathode-ray screen-glow reflected back from bloodshot eyeballs, basslines sizzling like seared flesh around overheated nethacker brain-jacks, synchronized laser saws slashing serrated arpeggios to the rhythm of robotic drum machine assembly lines, dystopian melodies refracting through the haze like swarms of gleaming crimson camera eyes...6 trax of unstoppable terminator assault audio.

Polytope first Polytope EP welcomes two wonder kids from the European bass music scene: the Brussels-based fa:act and Meli Mena from Paris. They have worked hard to deliver you a 6-track, club-ready opus, with a special collaboration and a remix by Maoupa Mazzochetti.

 "COUGH TWICE IF YOU CARE" explores the depths of the hardcore continuum with a special twist from these two talented artists: 

fa:act created two dancehall-inspired bangers with his iconic touch: "Wizard Bubble" and "Breeze and Riddim". 

 Meli Mena has produced two high-energy club gems with break influences and IDM resonances: "Hot Girls Get Sad" and "SideQuest Nap." 

 They both released the already famous 140 bpm club anthem "Dust Drip," which has destroyed many dancefloors all over the world. 

All these tracks got the Maoupa Mazzocchetti special analog treatment; he also gifted us with a strong remix of "SideQuest Nap" from our dear Meli Mena.

Billy Nasty's Electrix welcomes AXIOMATIZE, a newly formed collaboration between Orson Bramley and James Preston. Up first is the blistering electro-techno of 'Leviatron' with its corrugated drum patterns, snappy hits and computer circuitry in meltdown, all making for a dystopian vibe.'I Am Evil' (extended mix) is dark and broody with a mischievous low end prowling beneath the drums and talkbox vocals. Last of all is 'Turbo Specs', a crisp and bouncy electro cut with a nimble low end and meticulous drum designs that get you on your toes and keep you there. A fine outing from this fresh collaboration..

4 UGLY DJs ONLY Vol. ONE: file under alternative dance music — a snarling snapshot of the unconventionally attractive side of underground dance music. Curated for the late-blooming, ugly duckling disco dollies, this seven-track collection veers through busted club experiments, mutant techno, and haunted house heaters.

Each artist pushes dance music into strange, unconventional terrain — unafraid to embrace the peculiar, the abrasive, and sometimes even the ugly. The release features:
Thomass Jackson, Argentinian-born and now based in Mexico City, known for releases on Multi Culti and his own Calypso Records dj_2button, UK-born and Vancouver-based, head of the excellent Weirdos Inc imprint;

HIGHELECTRiX, the debut project of Lisbon’s XCI, presenting their first-ever track under this moniker;

Etbonz, a familiar name to @Bed_of-Roses-1 followers, with previous releases on Love on the Rocks and Bahnsteig 23;

@listentomorpheme, a fresh face whose electro-freak-pop debut Collected Pieces recently dropped on EYMS;

Wormbox, the collaborative alias of Break Mode and Cole Baby, names that are all too familiar in BoR world have recent offerings for Paradia Sound, Ransom Note, and Electric Shapes;

MagicPink, another Bed Head on the BoR roster, continues to throw more irons into a fire that refuses to be contained. Also recently featured on the Electric Shapes Unreleased Territory vol. 4

Together, they form a crooked constellation of acid-damaged jams and asymmetrical DJ tools.

No Signs of Life’ pulses with rebellious rhythms and an energetic, chest-pumping spirit. This track challenges passivity and inspires action through its genre-fluid approach. GLNY keeps listeners on their toes, seamlessly blending UK bass, breaks, electro, and techno. Reflecting on the inhumanity prevalent in modern society, the song carries a positively humanistic message, infused with a primal, animistic ethos that evokes feelings of triumph. GLNY’s artistic diversity shines, making ‘No Signs of Life’ some of his best work yet.

PREMIERE: GLYNY - Outlines

Hayes Bradley is a composer, producer, and DJ who works across dance music, ambient, and film scoring as well as curating sound for key fashion brands. He has DJed at major events, including Insomniac’s Forever Midnight NYE Festival, as well as in Tokyo, Berlin, and New York. He formerly toured with Kaytranada as part of his American Dance Ghosts group and released his debut EP, ‘These Things Take Time’, back in 2017.

He has since released three albums, including the critically acclaimed ambient debut ‘1-9’ via Secular Sabbath Records, and two ethereal follow-ups, ‘Anywhere For Now’ & ‘Recommence (I/VII)’. Now he joins L.A. label Stratasonic for his latest musical adventure. This first single is a taster of an eclectic and adventurous forthcoming album, which pairs widescreen progressive, melodic broken beats with introspective songwriting and peak-time club euphoria.

Says the artist, "'Total Call' is personal chaos. Chaos, most people try to mask by acting normal. If you're crying or fucked up or panicking in public, you try and cover it up. I think everyone should just lean into whatever they are feeling and care less about the people staring back. The drums and synth pulls are masked by a common guitar riﬀ. But in the end, the guitar sound vanishes and you're just left with who you truly are. Whatever that may be, so probably just be that."

'Total Call' bursts open with gritty, raw guitar riﬀs that drive straight into thunderous breakbeats built for peak-time intensity. This visceral release of inner tension features sinewy synth lines twisting through the chaos, with a potent bassline that keeps the pressure high. It's honest, unfiltered, and sure to electrify any set.
