Nothing seemed to work; she'd tried every suggestion under the sun — medicinal, herbal, holistic... the list went on. Though a few of these familiar and strange remedies had brought momentary relief, it wasn't long before the pain returned in full force. There was just one more option that she had yet to explore, but with this healing power came much risk...

Drawing influence from the uncertain times we've found ourselves in over the last year, Logical Rec bosses Ivan De La Rouch & Mike Sacchetti release their 'Cúrame' EP, which translates from Spanish as ‘Heal Me’. Coming via Play Pal Records, it marks the pair's first outing on the Madrid label and sees them merge hypnotic guitar riffs with analogue electronics, all delivered with a punk attitude. On the flip the two originals get the rework treatment from label affiliate Rigopolar, Italian producer Amarcord, Fucanglong Files boss Mufti and Berlin's Skelesys.

PREMIERE: Ivan de la Rouch & Mike Sacchetti - Cúrame (Skelesys Remix) [Play Pal Records]

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere the new music video for "Hypnotic Eyes" by Italo Moderni label boss Adrian Marth. Wrong Era and Italo Moderni joined forces and present the five tracker EP "Red Nights", which includes two hot remixes from Fabrizio Mammarella and Geneva Jacuzzi. 

Adrian creates an unique and fresh take on Italo Disco sounds with his new EP, transporting the listener back to 1983 with his spacey synths & obscure essence. Expect nothing but harsh basslines and filthy drums from the Barcelona based producer. His love for the classic sounds of italo, space, and cosmic disco of the 80’s comes perfectly together on this release. The artist also aims to transform and create a modern EBM/Italo Disco scene, and this release is the first step towards it, according to Adrian.

Music video direction by Myrtille Moniot, who has also directed adverts for iconic brands such as Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Dior.

Retroiluminate ep

Pumuki & Calystarr -Close your eyes

Sounds Of Porn is Rey Morales (SXDNS221), a seasoned Madrid-based Venezuelan who decided to bring together all his most intimate influences and finally debut in the producing realm. For his very first incursion under the new alias, he came up with a hot mix of Dirty Disco, Nasty House, and Horny Italo-infused cuts. The result, “Dame Duro” EP, lands on the promising German label Ghosting Corporation showing off three sexy originals and their respective remixes made with love and glamour by a true dream team of Indie Dance/Dark Disco superstars: none other than Skelesys (SXDNS139), Karla Lynch (SXDNS358), and Alberto Melloni, who spared no effort to jump in with the best of their games.

Premiered here, “Acido En Madrid” lives up to its name and delivers a bouncing dance floor filler embedded in… yes: a plethora of acid. Moaning vocals, panting synth layers, and sighing leads harmonise to set off an exciting electronic music experience and showcase the capabilities and creativity of our fellow dinosaur.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://ghostingcorporation.bandcamp.com/

Shroomy

A dreamy retro synthwave journey layered with lush atmospheres and deep grooves.
This track blends shimmering, catchy synth lines with pulsing low-end rhythms, creating a soundscape that’s both nostalgic and forward-looking. Floating pads and airy textures wrap the groove in a haze of neon glow, making it perfect for late-night drives, drifting thoughts, or getting lost in a cinematic dreamworld.
