Westbam feat. Richard Butler - You Need The Drugs [Achat Edit]

To speak to Luca Daniel Schwarz aka LDS about his music is to be enthusiastically guided into a complex world of his own creation: clean and powerful techno which pulses with life from the textured patterns and drum sequences that have fills and accents that would make anyone who's picked up a set of drumsticks envious.

Yet this ecosystem of noise is deceptive; Schwarz's process for making music is very different to how a live drummer would create the same subtlety of performance. Forever researching new technology, Luca got deeply interested in different programming languages, and created a series of probability based music tools for manoeuvring sounds and sequencing.

Manipulating those probabilities takes a skillful alchemy, needing understanding of both musical structure and how the tools he devised work. To return to the drummer analogy, if the drummer is focussed and intentional in the moment of playing, then the method used in LDS tracks is almost diametrically opposed, with all of the intention coming in the assembly of the instruments, potential paths, and gateways; once play is pressed the music flows, following all the rules that were set in advance, not unlike a domino run or Rube Goldberg machine.

And like a domino run, the results are fascinating and, ultimately, fun: staccato vocals pop in and out in 'zipp prompt'; laser-like synths pulse; background noises sweep across the aural plane of the dub techno of 'diff, blockmix' and 'pow' adding texture that brings vitality all-too-easily missed out when complex mathematical processes become entwined with music creation. The high sensitivity to texture and rhythmic detail in Stadion Progg is multiplied further on Jean Redondo's remix - whose track, Hypersonic, was the backbone of 2023's 'yet' compilation on Tresor.

The balance between technology and a sense of fun might also come from the maker; it's not easy to overstate Schwarz's passion for what is now his favourite way to make music, "it never gets boring. There's always a moment of anticipation to see what actually emerges." And the true "power of 2" comes into play when the resulting music can be fed back through the system again and again, potentiating the music in exponential ways.

After five years, Augusto Taito makes the long-awaited return to the label with a brand new EP, marking the fifth chapter in our Morphologies series. The release offers a range of distinctive tracks, striking a balance between driving peak-time material and the deeper, more introspective side of techno.

For the remix, we’re thrilled to welcome the brilliant JakoJako to the label. Her love for modular synths and funky rhythms comes together perfectly in the remix she’s delivered!

OMEN Recordings presents the debut release from Georgian producer BOYD SCHIDT - a compelling and emotionally charged three-track EP, featuring powerful remixes by label heads AXKAN and DUELLIST.

The EP opens with the title track, 'Spiritual Numbness,' where Boyd turns inward to capture the mood of late-night afterhours. Hypnotic rhythms merge with melancholic undertones, grounded by deep basslines and drifting, immersive atmospheres. It's techno built for moments when time fades and the lights stay low.

'Dance of the Dragons' follows with an energetic yet uplifting vibe, blending soaring synths with a subtle progressive edge. The result is a modern techno ritual-weighty enough for the dancefloor, yet full of luminous, transcendent moments.

On 'Zeillos.' featuring Tasime, Boyd explores more spectral territory. A minimalist structure underpins ghostly vocal textures that slither and swell like smoke in the dark. The track stands out for its genre-defying feel and emotional depth.

AXKAN delivers a remix of 'Dance of the Dragons' with his signature industrial power-layering tension, kinetic energy, and sharp pulses that echo his work on the Embedded series. The result is intense and explosive.

DUELLIST offers a raw rework of 'Spiritual Numbness,' stripping it down and rebuilding it with mechanical precision. The remix is leaner, harsher, and infused with visceral force.

This release journeys through elevation, introspection, and brutalism-unified by refined sound design and diverse emotional landscapes.

When everything falls into place perfectly, often suggesting good luck or fate working in one's favor, in this case, it is the collaboration of long-time friend Antonio Ruscito and Luigi Tozzi, probably one of the best Italian artists out there. Memoir is a well-thought-out journey into their sound, and this is their debut.

Premiere of 'I Finished My Homework' by Diego Oroquieta, taken from Aquadance EP forthcoming on Soma Records

Chilean based producer Diego Oroquieta returns to Soma for his 2nd full release with the Aquadance EP. Armed with 4 uniquely produced and distinct tracks, Oroquieta moves easily between warping and hypnotic sounds to more tougher and abrasive material.

I Finished My Homework is a relentless, drum heavy opener that leans on a hard hitting and continuous rhythm while title track, Aquadance, takes a deeper, hypnotic route with pulsating, warping synths creating a dark tension throughout. La Serpiente Perdio Su Rumbo once again brings Oroquieta’s tougher sound as pounding drums back looped out synths before Amazing Dance closes out the release with distorted and unyielding power.

We’re excited to present the fourth release on Serial Disc Touchers [SDT Recordings] — a label driven by artistic freedom and a passion for bold, genre-defying sounds.

For this instalment, we hand the reins to Michael Ius, who delivers a no-holds-barred Techno EP that goes straight for the jugular. Precision-built for the dance floor, these tracks channel pure, high-voltage energy with razor-sharp detail and depth.

To elevate the release even further, we've brought in none other than Lobster for remix duties. His reinterpretation twists the original into something raw and mind-bending, adding a fresh dimension while keeping the intensity intact.

SDT004 is a reminder that no matter the tempo or genres, we’re here to move you.
