Amsterdam-based label Ganzfeld Records start life with a 10-track compilation that brings together artists from across the world, who are moving in the sonic worlds of electro, breakbeat, trance, bass and acid. While local Dutch artists like Gamma Intel and lower_flower feature, the V/A also sees contributions from the likes of Norwegian-Indian producer SUCHI, Chicago's ravelogic, Armenian producer NTHR1 and Romanian DJ and producer Aleksa Alaska.

PREMIERE: Aleksa Alaska - Fragile Belief System [Ganzfeld Records]
