We are happy to announce the forthcoming vinyl release of 'Last Transmissions From Jevvers', the latest release from UK based musician Caldera. This evocative collection was recorded between 2018 and 2024 in Caldera’s home and studio at Jevvers, Brighton, a creative space surrounded by a tranquil grove that deeply influenced the EP's nature-inspired sound.

The record stands as a heartfelt farewell to both the physical studio and the vibrant community that shaped the Artist's journey in the past 9 years. Each track resonates with the organic atmosphere of the studio’s unique setting, offering listeners a glimpse into Caldera's creative sanctuary. Notably, the EP features a collaboration with queniv, developed remotely in early 2021 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the challenges of lockdown, the Artists exchanged stems and ideas online, forging a connection that transcended borders and restrictions.

Since 2012, Caldera has built a reputation for crafting a distinctive blend of techno and bass music, characterized by intricate sound design and genre-defying rhythms. His work invites listeners into imaginative sonic worlds, with releases...  afficher plus

PREMIERE : Caldera - Spiral Path of Joy (Skii Mix)

It all started back in 2018. Together with Jokios Kultūros, we stumbled upon a Boiler Room podcast that felt like a jolt to the senses. In a world dominated by slow grooves and chuggy melodies, there was DJ Normal 4 — cutting through the haze with something raw, fresh, and wildly different. We were instantly hooked.

Soon after, our paths took us to Georgia, to the iconic 4GB Festival. Under the open sky, amidst the mountains, we witnessed a b2b set of pure madness: DJ Normal 4 and Bufiman unleashing energy that felt from another dimension. It wasn’t just a set — it was a moment. One for the books. One we still talk about.

From there, Tim’s music became a constant companion. His releases on Second Circle, Klasse Wrecks, Brothers From Different Mothers, his own Aiwo Rec, and especially his debut album Tales of Z on Emotional Response — all played on repeat. They shaped our taste and soundtracked our days.

When we were close to our 100th podcast, we wanted to do something special. We reached out, and Tim said yes. He sent us a live recording that went viral as soon as we shared it. It felt like a big moment.

As our first events in Vilnius began to take shape, there was never a question — we had to bring Tim over. And when he came, it just clicked. What started as admiration grew into real friendship. He became a regular guest — not only on our dance floors, but also within our label. He remixed a track for our FAR EAST FLIGHT remix album, and later contributed a remix to our first vinyl release by Kalocain. He was also part of the fourth edition of Unreleased Territory. Two more visits to Vilnius followed, each one bringing us closer.

Tim has become an essential figure in the story of Electric Shapes. A spark that helped us evolve. An artist who gave us energy, courage, and confidence to push forward. Always kind, always real — with a killer sense of humor and a heart in the right place. A true star without trying to be one.

We’re endlessly proud to know Tim not only as DJ Normal 4, but as a friend, a collaborator, and a key part of what Electric Shapes has become.

From that first Boiler Room podcast to shared parties and shared records — it’s been a beautiful ride. And it’s far from over.

Bliss Inc. teams up with DJ TEETH for Summer of Dreams, a radiant split EP on SNC Recs. Blending melodic grooves and hazy euphoria, the release features two dreamy tracks by Bliss Inc. and two groovy, emotive cuts by DJ TEETH. From 90s-inspired trance to lush, sunrise-ready harmonies, it’s a warm journey through the softer edges of house and progressive. Summer of Dreams is more than a name — it’s a feeling. A soundtrack to fleeting nights,
sweaty mornings, and the golden haze in between.

NEW HIT: Bliss Inc. - Verbs [SNC Recs]

Everything started when we heard The Torrent of Words by Steppin' Wolf on Codek Records. The track had such a raw and gripping intensity, we were immediately drawn in. We reached out to the artist right away and invited him to record a podcast for our main series.

Along with the podcast, Aljoscha (this time using the alias AJO) sent us a playlist of demo tracks. The quality was outstanding. We chose three of them and decided to build a release around those tracks, inviting remixes for each. That’s how the Maeng Da EP was born.

Later on, Aljoscha delivered a mix for our Histoires de Piscine series — this time as AJO, since the first mix he did for us was under Steppin' Wolf. The set was packed with his own productions, and a few of the tracks appeared under yet another alias: Kalocain. The music under this name had a different edge — faster, sharper, and full of character. We asked if he had more unreleased material as Kalocain.

A few months later, he sent us a folder of tracks — all unreleased, all under the Kalocain alias. From the first listen, it felt right. The music spoke to us clearly, and it didn’t take long to decide. We signed four originals for what would become our first vinyl release.

To celebrate, we hosted a launch party at Opium Club in Vilnius. 

This year, Aljoscha returned to the catalogue once again as AJO. He’s a thoughtful, precise artist with excellent taste, and we’re genuinely grateful for the trust he places in us. It’s a pleasure to support and release his work.

He’s been featured twice already in our Unreleased Territory series, and after everything we’ve built together, it was only natural he’d be part of the sixth edition too.

Amin!

Alias: Manta / D'Nice @soundmanta
Pronouns: She / Her / They
Location: Berlin
Collective: frog
Name of the mix: Carried by House
About the mix: "With this mix, I channel the lasting power of house music. I shine a light, with gratitude, on producers who honour its roots in the Black, Latinx and queer communities where house emerged as a space for self-expression, against racism and queerphobia. You will hear newer strains of Jackin’ and Acid House alongside the deep groove of Chicago House. Soulful vocals with dubby, stripped-back cuts and lots of drums, because house music to me is all about celebrating rhythms of joy and resistance.”
