When there is Lui Mafuta and Hug Records combining, you know you're in for a treat. Super dope EP from Haptik & Matalamata! 

Track Info: 

@Hugrecords is delighted to release this EP of @haptik_musik & @matalamata into the world, with some great remixes by @yasenkrasen, @seebo1 and in this case @luimafuta.

We also want to introduce the human behind the music so please meet one of the Artist behind the original track, Mathis aka Matalamata:

1) What is your favorite book to read?
Siddharta

2)if you were a super-hero, what powers would you have?
Hard to decide but I think teleportation if I could take some friends with me.
Or Omnilinguism - Being able to speak every language.

Being able to decide everything really easily would also be a great superpower.

3) What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)?
I need a lot of sleep and always try to get enough, even on festivals (one night I slept 12h at fusion). So I never had more than one day+night without sleep I think.

Thanks a lot for your support,
Philippe

PREMIERE: Haptik & Matalamata - Funky Down (Lui Mafuta Remix) [Hug Records]

Haven is more than a place — it is a feeling, a quiet certainty, a space where time softens at the edges. Within it lies the warmth of the familiar, the gentle pull of nostalgia, and the quiet return to beginnings. Unanchored yet familiar, home becomes a sensation, a whisper of something known. Rhythms unfold unhurriedly, melodies linger like distant memories, and introspection drifts into movement. For those who seek refuge in sound, Haven offers a place to rest. It lingers in the spaces between notes, inviting a pause, a breath, a moment to remember.

All the Way moves at its own pace. It stretches time — slow, immersive, and almost endless. There’s no rush, no destination, only the feeling of drifting further, all the way into the sound, all the way into the moment.

Premiere: apaj - All the Way ✦ Talpa Rec.

In Different Form (Remixes) reimagines the original EP through three distinct lenses. apaj and luçïd weave deep, atmospheric downtempo renditions, stretching the tracks into rich, contemplative soundscapes. Faul & Spaeth take a different route by distilling the energy to its essence with a focused, driving dance groove. Each remix brings a new perspective to Laaar's playful emotions. The core lingers, but its expression transforms—to a different form.

slow steps stories #2

Some feelings are hard to name - quiet, unsettling moments that linger at the edges of perception. Eckige Bäume is one of those moments, captured in sound.
Born from a strange emotional aftertaste, Eckige Bäume finds its inspiration in a walk through nature - followed by the disorienting return to a world shaped by human order. 

The artists, @slow_child and @aamiq, describe the moment as a kind of quiet shock: stepping out of organic wildness, only to find trees trimmed into perfect squares. Something beautiful, made rigid. Something alive, restrained.
Translating this experience into music, the duo crafted a soft downtempo piece that floats between wonder and melancholy. 
Gentle percussion and warm textures pulse like distant memories, while subtle melodic layers drift like thoughts just out of reach. The track doesn’t shout - it breathes, inviting listeners into its quiet tension, where the organic meets the artificial, and the emotional response is felt more than explained.
Eckige Bäume is a meditation on contrast. It’s the sound of remembering how strange we’ve made the world - and how those realizations, however small, stay with us.

🔥🔥🔥
[PIRANHA SIBERIA DUB] is pleased to present its 87th release: Anchoret (@anchoret) – Winter Cigarette EP.

The first release of this winter, where the cold of Pittsburgh turns into sonic vapor. In winter the city resembles a giant ashtray of concrete and steam. Here the winter cigarette burns not with tobacco, but with noise, rhythm, and deep reflections — as if the city exhales music through steel bridges and snowy winds.

Original works:
::: Winter Cigarette — Anchoret lights the first track, smoldering with a cold dub pulse that slowly spreads across riverbanks, bridges, and old rail lines. Every hit falls like snow; every click sparks like frost in the air.
::: Whatever — an inner detachment, nearly chaotic yet surprisingly focused. Anchoret exhales doubts through a steady, linear beat while the delay gathers fragments of thought into a single spiral.
::: Curious — a midnight rave inside an introvert’s mind: curiosity instead of aggression, bass instead of voice, space instead of answers.
::: Alabaster — like a lantern’s glow reflected in snow: white, yet filled with countless shades hiding the city’s old industrial tales.

Then the interpreters step in, each offering a new way to hold the cold with bare fingers:
::: Francesco Tamburrano (@ft-dubtechno) bends Curious into a hypnotic whirl, shifting the trajectory of its rising smoke.
::: Oldschool_Dubtechno .Producer (@enercube & @x_fr) transforms Alabaster into a Frosted Redub — frost over reverb, each echo denser than winter ice.
::: Daverage J. Normal (@thedaverage) lifts Winter Cigarette onto the rooftops of a concrete world, giving every beat a sharper urban pulse.
::: Radio Badjay (@radiobadjay) rebuilds Whatever into a full radio transmission — as if the track bursts into late-night airwaves from afar.
::: Aritomi (@aritomi) reimagines Curious as a whisper inside a late-night metro train, where footsteps and bass fall in perfect sync.
::: Juan Moreno (@juanmorenomusica), in his Clear & Warm Remix, melts Alabaster from within: the snow under his hands does not dissolve — it begins to glow, softly, deeply, endlessly.

Winter Cigarette EP is like a trail of vapor in the frost: it vanishes, yet remains in memory. A sound that links Pittsburgh and Siberia with an invisible line of cold and rhythm. This release is a never-freezing smoke break for those who hear music in factory pipes, cracking ice, and the old whistle of the techno scene. Winter doesn’t ask if You’re ready. Winter Cigarette is already glowing somewhere between Pittsburgh and Novosibirsk — just breathe in deeper.


Yours in sound and spirit,
The [PIRANHA SIBERIA DUB] Crew.
