A slow-burning descent into the groove, The Place is built on a foundation of slinking basslines, razor-sharp percussion, and a creeping crescendo. Third Culture & Cafius strip things back to the essentials—subdued yet insistent, like a whispered invitation into the night. At its core, David LeSal’s vocals act as both guide and instigator, weaving between the steady pulse with an effortless allure. His delivery is intimate yet distant, seductive yet detached—repeating like a lingering thought in the back of your mind. Roe Deers takes this mystique and mutates it further, warping the vocal into an eerie, spectral presence that haunts the off-kilter groove. It’s club music that exists in the in-between spaces—shadowy corners and neon-lit mirages, where genre and reality fracture.

The Place

The Place (Roe Deers Remix)

The sixth installment of a subterranean warehouse series, reviving the raw energy of ‘90s raves,
delivering dance-floor-driven electro.

IDORU returns with another heavy hitting club track fit for the darkest corners of the rave scene. In true form, Lotus doesn’t shy away from raw, gritty bass lines and menacing minimalism. With a head-banging EBM cadence and smoke-filled dystopian effervescence, this one feels like a lucid fever dream unraveling on the dance floor.

IDORU - Lotus (Radio Edit)

In anticipation of the highly awaited LP ‘Cafe Futuro,’ Franz Scala releases ‘Crush Test.’ This track features Charlie, Wrong Era's own enigmatic electro icon. ‘Crush Test’ captivates listeners with Scala's menacing bass arps and haunting whispers. Continuing their collaborative efforts, Scala and Charlie evoke the celebrated essence of the Neukölln melting pot, drawing a ballad on kindred memories and welcoming listeners into the atmosphere of before.

Release Info :

VA - 25 YEARS OF 808 by A-TRACTION [A-Traction Records // ATRACT0102]

"In 25 years, my label ‘A-TRACTION records’ has never had an eyelid. I wanted it that way because, since its beginnings, electronic music has been synonymous with sharing, minorities and, above all, never pigeonholing anything.
Electronic music is also about machines that have left their mark on our history, like the famous TR808, which has been the foundation of many styles including electro, the real thing, the one that breaks, the one that sings, the one that's dark... so what could be more natural than that, in our 25th anniversary year, we're paying tribute to the label's artists and this style on 8 August 2025!
Some of them have been with us since the beginning, like Paul Nazca and his track ‘Fusion’ released in 2003, others like John Lord Fonda, Commuter, Jules Wells who've been with us for almost 15 years, some producers we've loved since their debut, like Leonard de Leonard, Cyrk, but also the most recent additions to the Elektrotechnik family, Nasty Boxes, Poltergeist and Voltaire, and finally my very close friends, Jorgen Thorvald, with whom I share long hours in the studio, and my friend Erebos 101, with whom I've recently been sharing the artistic direction of the label.

I'm not in the habit of taking the floor to talk about a release and promote it, but you have to get out of your comfort zone and thank the artists who keep electronic music and our label alive over the years.

I'll leave you to discover or rediscover the tracks that have left their mark on our history in this style that I particularly enjoy, and thx to you the Dj who played and supported our music"

Captain Mustache & Play Paul "The Pathetic“
The Pathetic

Captain Mustache is back with the third release on Mobilee from his Luz album, this time with Play Paul, the brother of Daft Punk's Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo collaborating on one of the tracks, “The Pathetic”.

French producer Captain Mustache bridges electro, techno and wave influences. He has put out music on Permanent Vacation and Bedrock, while his last outing on Kompakt 'Everything' marked his biggest tune to date with top-tier DJ support and more than 300K plays. His upcoming album Luz is a deep dive into a wide array of influences from the 80s and 90s and finds him exploring new styles that work at home, away from the club, as well as on the dance floor.

The Pathetic is at the heart of the album and is a sleek, futuristic electro-techno sound with sultry indie vocals. Bright arps flash across the face of the tune as the drums surge on and the moody bass adds great weight.

Dancing Like Muffins keeps the pressure on with bright synth lines jangling above the well swung groove and some lush claps. Sparkling arps explode to bring more light and lift up to what is a majestic cosmic odyssey. Add in some vocoder vocals that bring a melancholic edge and you have a transcendent dance floor gem. 

These are two more irresistible tastes of Captain Mustache and his superb new album Luz. 

I WANNA FEEL THE MAGIC
OF SOMEONE CHARISMATIC
I WISH I WERE MAGNETIC
A LITTLE LESS PATHETIC

I WANNA KNOW SOME GLORY
AND STOP LOOKING SO SORRY
I WANNA LIVE A MORNING
WITHOUT FEARING A MOURNING

I’M LIVING AN ILLUSION
THAT LEADS ME TO CONFUSION
I’M LIVING THROUGH A PASSION
THAT TRIGGERS MY EMOTIONS

I WANNA TRUST SOMEBODY
WHO DOESNT WANT TO BREAK ME
I WANNA TRUST MY BODY
AND STOP LOOKING SO EDGY

I WANNA KNOW SOME GLORY
AND STOP LOOKING SO SORRY
I WANNA LIVE A MORNING
WITHOUT FEARING A MOURNING

I’M LIVING AN ILLUSION
THAT LEADS ME TO CONFUSION
I’M LIVING THROUHG A PASSION
THAT TRIGGERS MY EMOTIONS

I WANNA TRUST SOMEBODY
WHO DOESNT WANT TO BREAK ME
I WANNA TRUST MY BODY
AND STOP LOOKING SO EDGY

INCOMING : Jennifer Touch - Ceiling #FabrikaRecords

Release date : 01/09/2025
BUY : https://jennifertouch.bandcamp.com/album/aging-at-airports-2

The idea for the record title came before the music even existed as Touch was spending an increasing amount of time in airports while touring. In her own words: ""It felt like I waste a large part of my life waiting for the next show to come, to entertain and perform my music and build timeless moments with others. This waiting, the slowly ticking time at the gate, was in complete contrast to what I want to do as an artist: to be in flux, to create things that will last forever. The airport, as a busy hub, was like a symbol of this ambivalence. And a reminder: every second, whether waiting or on the move, I have to accept that I am fading, that my creative power, my face, and my body are fading. As a (performing) artist, everything feels like a strange contrast. While you want to stay true to yourself and speak authentically from the soul, you are also expected to appear forever young, and powerful. Artists are often wanted to distract people, but creating this art forces me to confront my own transience. I feel the struggle to fit into this powerful artificial framework that the world has set and the desire to break free from it.

‘Aging at Airports’ plays with the ambiguity and ambivalence of being true to ourselves. Those true andhonest emotions are the theme of the record. The vocals and lyrics channel those emotions within theartificial surroundings of synths, digital sounds, and clean mixing. This theme is quite dramatic but Touch maintains a sense of playfulness. The record doesn’t attempt to be too serious and super dark but still comes from that deep place of Touch’s soul that has to handle this stretch.
From the opening track the album is a synth showcase that fully embraces Jennifer’s range as a vocalist and composer. ‘Aging at Airports’ takes listeners through a drifting emotional journey through EBM EBMinspired tracks (Behavior and Ceiling), drone pop (Walls of Patience and Anthem) and minimal beats (Dripping and Wars & Blood Red Roses) to close out with a track made for the darkest dance floors (Rumble (Defiance)).

﻿
We're delighted to welcome back Amount, aka Nayan Soukie, to Darkroom Dubs as he returns with four subterranean throbbers that effervesce with trance-inducing lawlessness.
﻿
A Darkroom Dubs favourite who first debuted in 2013 as one-half of house-combo Soukie & Windish. Since then, he's flourished as a renowned producer, DJ, and seasoned live performer, developing a penchant for sleazy burners primed for the darkest of rooms and those hazy, sunrise-lit, after-hours moments.
﻿
This latest offering from the Berlin native, entitled Zeroton, is an essential addition to an already impressive back catalogue, with appearances on imprints such as Feines Tier, Running Back, Frank Music and his own URSL label.

INCOMING : Amount - Acid Corridor #DarkroomDubs

For its third digital release GNC Records presents Desordenador, a powerful EP charged with bold samples and analog sequences. This time, Techno and New Beat take center stage, blending with rhythmic and mental disruptions born from the impulsive and authentic energy that define Ciberfobia’s personality.

Ciberfobia is the project of Pedro Aguirre, an Ecuadorian DJ with over two decades of experience behind the decks. Under this alias, Pedro dives into the subconscious, confronting the deepest fears surrounding the evolution of surveillance technologies, emotional manipulation and thought control - exposing the chaos of this so-called progress and reminding us that we’re already trapped inside this error we built.

Layers of darkness embraced by light that stands out at the surface. Known for reckless experimentation in production and recognisable attitude at his Control Club residency, Walentin Pauer's dilettantism transformed into a work ethic which propelled him to the point of reading the room without having to compromise the dancefloor's attitude. Never satisfied.

 While playing for venues and parties such as Renate's Silvester party, Kater Blau, Crack Bellmer, Bohnengold, Virage Paris, Gouter de Nuit or La Rotonde Stalingrad, Walentin Pauer does bookings for 'Cabinet', 'Jetlagged' and 'Jacked' nights in Bucharest for Control Club.
