The burgeoning soundtrack for US techno is being developed by Peer, a cutting-edge underground techno label run by San Francisco native Max Gardner. Heavyweights like Drumcell, Uun, Secus, Annika Wolfe, Truncate, and many more have contributed classic sounds to the label.

BRÄLLE is a bright and rising artist from New York, and his work has been included on prestigious labels including Lindsey Herbert's EvilGroove, Quail's Animal Farm, Coyu's Suara, and Joton's Newrhythmic.

For this DT:Premiere we selected the track "Overthrow" with a roaring underbelly of tension. Hypntotic and expansive, this is a trippy realm of details and drum work that captures the mind and feet with a heads down style groove.

With the comeback of his moniker, Polyvinyl, UMEK goes back to his hardgroove origins. In addition, he is starting a new record label called 1605 GrooveSector, which will specialise in raw techno and hardgroove.

Slovenian-born UMEK has a career that dates back to the 1990s, when he was among the musicians that helped create and pioneer the first hardgroove movement. His iconic Recycled Loops project produced a number of groundbreaking songs that shaped the modern genre.

UMEK’s music has changed throughout the course of his three-decade career to reflect contemporary styles, and he has continued to be one of the most significant techno artists. His career is coming full circle with the return of the Polyvinyl pseudonym, and he is once again embracing the improvisational production style that once brought him international recognition.

For this DT:Premiere we selected the title track “Mechanically Intensive” with a rolling bassline and filtered percussion. Jerking synth stabs are added to boost the offbeat energy, but it’s the timeless, tribal and schranz-like rhythms that create the throwback, dance floor burning sound.

After a streak of amazing releases on label we are back again and this time with Sao Paulo’s KLBR who delivers a mesmerizing 4-track EP

The title track 'Pulsar Rhythms' sets the tone with an irresistible, rolling groove that builds momentum like a spinning neutron star. A hypnotic synth pattern pulsates at the core, steadily evolving as percussive elements weave in and out, creating a driving yet fluid motion that keeps the energy locked tight on the dancefloor.

'Asteroid Field' takes you on a raw and energetic ride through an unpredictable soundscape, this track features shuffling, syncopated drums and swirling textures that mimic the chaotic yet rhythmic nature of an asteroid belt. The bassline surges forward like a spacecraft, while layers of percussive hits add an extra edge of tension and movement.

'Exoplanet Groove' carries a deep and rolling groove, while hypnotic synth stabs and filtered pads create a dreamy yet driving atmosphere. As the track progresses, subtle modulations and delicate FX add an otherworldly dimension, making it a perfect tool for late-night sessions.

'Life Force Connection' closes out the EP, this track brings a deeper, more emotive touch while maintaining a solid groove. A resonant bassline lays the foundation as intricate rhythms and spacey synth add-ons expand into the sonic ether, and evoke a sense of connection between body and rhythm.
