From February 1st to 2nd, 2025, 449 musicians and 24 visual artists came together to challenge themselves: 18 hours to create cover art and supplementary branding, and 18 hours to produce songs between 50 and 70 seconds-- no more, no less. A major challenge, but a welcome one. The resulting 66 tracks consist of some of the most high-energy, creative, and fun music that the FORM community has to offer.

During times of stress, fear, and worry, art is what keeps us going. It can be an enormous tool for good or simply a small glimmer of hope in an otherwise dark time. If any%: Level 2 is a testament to anything, it's our ability to keep getting back up and finding joy wherever we can. Our lust for life is what helps us fight for those around us and for causes that matter to us, which in turn enables us to create more and more art forevermore. Start that project that's been in the back of your mind. Pick up a skill you've been meaning to acquire. Try something new and allow yourself to fail. There is so much triumph to be found in our art, and so much art to be found in our triumph.

All proceeds from any%: Level 2 will be donated to CHADS, a nonprofit dedicated to awareness, prevention, and programs surrounding depression and suicide.

DOZENTH YEAR [JUNE 25]

These vocals have been a part of the track since its inception. It was a coin flip whether or not to include them in the final version, and in the end I chose to go with the instrumental version in hopes that it could convey a more neutral quietude - one that listeners could live in however they please and in a variety of situations and emotions without having such a clear statement of theme and intent both for the track itself and the conclusion to the entire album. One year on from release, this dialogue is still very much part of the true soul of the track and I hope you enjoy it!

The debut album from American artist DJDESKJOCKEY on SuckPuck — and it fully lives up to its name. HI SPEED NO SLEEP is a furious marathon of 12 tracks where oldschool rave, gabber. hardcore, breakcore, jungle and footwork collide, mutate, and turn into a strange new creature.

Across just over an hour, DJDESKJOCKEY delivers nonstop momentum: playful, aggressive, and unpredictable. Acid lines, cartoonish samples, sudden switches and hyperactive energy make the record feel both chaotic and meticulously arranged.

HI SPEED NO SLEEP is reckless, funny, aggressive, and carefully crafted all at once. A debut that turns rave history inside out and reshapes it into DJDESKJOCKEY’s own hyperactive world.

As always, the release is free to download, but if you enjoy it — we’d be super grateful for your support through donations. 🙏
More than 90% of Suck Puck Records releases are free, and your help is what makes it possible for us to keep going and keep bringing you fresh and wild music from the underground.

Thank you for standing with us 💚

The Moroccan Techno label SOTOR - سطور is pleased to present you the new release SOT04.

Meaning "lines" in the arabic language, SOTOR shows here its interest in the various shades of Techno.

Horacio Cruz delivers 2 original tracks to write the fourth lines of the Sotor's story in addition of two remixes from Spectrums Date Forces & Alien Rave:

"Octopus Black" is an apocalyptic electro big-banger where Horacio Cruz combines both his techno and electro influences in a unique way. The Spanish techno master offers you here your first experience into a black hole.

The cosmic journey continues with Alien Rave & Spectrum Data Forces versions of ‘Octopus Black'. They deliver a timeless electro gem & draw here with their remixes a musical allegory of our modern decadent world, where mankind is causing its own loss.

On the B-side, Horacio Cruz delivers a powerful techno gem with "Undoctrine".

Released September 19th, 2025

Distribution worldwide by EPM Music
A1 Mastered by Horacio Cruz
