10 years. 10 years of crafting our vision of what contemporary

electronic music means to us.

From the north-east of France to the world, we've spent a decade
telling stories through sound. We've built more than a label; we've
cultivated a community—a true family—that has filled us with
unwavering support and happiness in a scene that thrives on

shared passion.

For this milestone anniversary, we're proud to unveil the 8th
chapter of our Crysta Ampullaris series. This time, we're going
back to our roots. Ten tracks, each one a high-fidelity tribute to the

techno and club music we love. This compilation is a perfect
representation of the eclecticism that has defined our journey

from the very beginning.

PREVIEW - LFVA009 - Crysta Ampullaris Vol.8

Marking the anniversary of three decades of career, Dopplereffekt debuts on Tresor Records with Metasymmetry, arriving 12 December 2025.

This latest release finds members Rudolf Klorzeiger and To-Nhan in deep inquiry in sound, contemplating structure and pattern in physics and nature resulting in a harmonious audio tessellation.

Metasymmetry itself relates to a kind of second-order reality found not in the structures of life but in the rules that govern these structures; that order exists not only in things but in the relationships among systems of order. It is a structure of structures, a logic of laws, an abstract unity embedded in the act of transformation itself.

Accordingly, the four-track EP reflects this duality. Each side opens with a piece of electronic music at its most precise and immovable: defined, kinetic, architectural. This is followed by a second composition that dissolves into a weightless, atmospheric counter-form. The shift evokes a higher symmetry: an alignment not of parts, but of principles; a sonic model of the universe’s hidden invariance.

Metasymmetry also echoes across Dopplereffekt’s extended sonic continuum; this stands as the first offering on Tresor under the Dopplereffekt name despite an association with the label and club going back to the start. In this, it becomes the source of an echo that reverberates backwards through time; its own reflection:

a mirror reflecting in a mirror
harmony within a system
identities in perfect balance

Sometime earlier this year, mysterious stickers started popping up - my face Photoshopped onto a Pokémon. After a few reposts, I learned the Pokémon in question was Mewtwo, which apparently makes me… Rhywtwo (It rhymes!...).

Since then, people have been spotting these stickers in Amsterdam, Paris, New York, Stockholm, Berlin and London so far.

I still have no clue who’s behind this or *why*(!?). But since it doesn’t seem to be an insult or promoting anything, I decided to see it as some kind of game. So, in the spirit of embracing chaos - when life gives you a sticker with your face on it, you make.. a track.

● Masha Wordpress - Breakdown [JAD038]

“Breakdown” is an uncompromising debut EP from an Amsterdam-based DJ and producer Masha Wordpress. Across three tracks, she channels raw, angry energy into a powerhouse of sound. Fusing heavy basslines, distorted synths, and pounding rhythms, this release stands as a bold declaration of intent: relentless, loud, and unapologetic.

Premiere: Formant Value & Simone Bauer - Eos

A crowd had gathered to observe the protest as the chanting and screaming intensified. The police looked slightly anxious now as they huddled close to the metal barriers, there was an ominous tension which hung devilishly in the air. They just couldn't cope under the pressure... Now as the sky began to darken some had begun to start small fires atop the concrete playground, smoke began to branch upwards in a swarming spiral towards the stars. This would be the night...

Ears Have Eyes are close friends and all round top chaps. Their latest release comes in the form of a new EP from Murun B & Ivor E who deliver an enigmatic blend of electronics and dancefloor delight.

PREMIERE: Murun B & Ivor E - Dai Just Can't Cope [Ears Have Eyes]
