As Victor Ruiz’s VOLTA imprint heads towards its first anniversary, the label prepares to welcome back a frequent contributor in the form of Berlin-based techno titan Alex Stein. With an impressive catalogue of releases on many of the genre’s most-respected labels, Stein is back on VOLTA with yet another masterful display of diversely captivating techno prowess in the form of “Tunnel Vision” - an all-encompassing three-track EP.

Starting with the title cut, “Tunnel Vision” is a pacy, dancefloor-ready, melodic masterclass. Riding a tide of arpeggiating musical elements from the outset, this combination of futuristic techno, electro and breakbeat, which comes packed to the hilt with firm grooves, interplanetary vocals and ripping sonics, will have you energised and moving from start to finish with ease.

“Dopemine 23” comes next, cutting a darker, more assertive line. Another stellar exhibition of robust drum sequencing and gripping musical arrangement keeps you locked into this vampiric acid techno stomper as it continuously cranks up the heat.

The release ends on “Reson8”, completing the trifecta of potent mainstage techno warheads. A duck and dive of rippling bass and thumping drums, laced with fleeting ominous vocals and hissing percussive drive, combining to carve out a high-octane peak-time bomb.

It’s no news that Victor Ruiz have been producing authentic music from day one. With a need to incorporate that sound more and more, VOLTA was created.

“I’ve always felt that my music was somewhat different and most times hard to place on a certain label. I saw many other artists feeling the same. There was a gap. That’s when I knew it was time for me to create VOLTA.”
Victor wants to create a new platform that not just releases music but also connects artists and human beings.

A percentage of the profits of the label goes to charities and causes chosen by all the artists that are involved.

“I want to bring consciousness to our scene that we should not just make and play music. There’s so much more beyond that. Helping people should be one of the main focuses in our lives. That’s why we are artists, to connect and to help.”

Nanø:

Grandit en Thaïlande jusqu’à sa majorité, d’où ce petit côté psychédélique au tout début de son parcours.
Par son retour en France il découvre la scène Techno, d'une part en Club mais dès sa première Rave en Warehouse, enfin il a trouvé l'endroit et l'ambiance qui lui correspond. En amour avec la nuit en Hangar désaffecté ou en Free Party, il se sent enfin libre et développe peu à peu sa passion. Aujourd'hui, il se montre reconnaissant d'avoir fait de multiples rencontres aux talents riches, qui lui ont donné plusieurs opportunités notamment de réaliser pour ses premier Dj sets en situation réel. Par la suite, il sera également booké par le collectif BNLP, ainsi que divers petits clubs Parisien. 
Sa sensibilité et son goût pointu pour des styles allant de la Micro-House Roumaine jusqu’à de la Tekno en passant par une touche Psychédélique ne saisseront de vous transporter de vous immerger à travers ses passions lors d’un instant.
