✈ To celebrate this new episode, we are proud and delighted to host such an iconic figure from the US Techno scene : TRUNCATE (Truncate, Ovum, BluePrint, CLR).

After being introduced to electronic music back in the early 90's in Los Angeles, a teenage David Flores was hooked. He started DJing across Southern California on the DIY warehouses, desert, and rave circuit. His style then was as varied as the local scene - a myriad of sounds ranging from house to acid to techno to hardcore. After a few years solely DJing, he began releasing original music under the moniker Audio Injection, which landed on labels such as Monoid, Stimulus, 4 Track & LA label Droid Recordings. His association with Droid Behavior began in 2003 and continues today as resident at the infamous and internationally acclaimed Interface event series alongside Drumcell and Raiz.

In early 2011, he started the project 'Truncate' to focus on the deeper, raw side of techno. His Truncate releases have been gain critical acclaim from world class underground talent such as Modeselektor, Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Chris Liebing, Speedy J, DVS1, Luke Slater, Ben Sims, Josh Wink, East Everything, Jooris Voorn, and many more. Since then, he has provided remixes for artists across the musical spectrum including Kink! for Pets Recordings, Slam for Soma, and Trus’me for Prime Numbers. He has also released original tracks on 50 Weapons and on Ultramajic as a collaboration with Jimmy Edgar.

A rigorous international tour schedule has followed, including included stops at the most prestigious venues and events, including Berghain in Berlin, Fabric in London, Concrete in Paris, The Movement Festival in Detroit, Womb in Tokyo, Dimensions Festival in Croatia, Awakenings in Amsterdam and Output in New York.  
 
With his heavy remix, production and touring schedule there is still no slowing down for David. He continues to shape an evolving sound and to champion the Los Angeles underground.

Enjoy and feel free to share! Love & Techno

Out of Place - the Croatian techno imprint helmed by Insolate - proudly welcomes Truant.J to the roster with a striking six-track release. ''Skin EP'' marks the Canadian producer’s first appearance on the label, delivering a collection of seductive, tension-laced techno that balances power and nuance in equal measure.

Truant.J has made waves across Europe and North America, with past appearances at iconic Paris clubs KMS25 and Glazart, as well as Vancouver institutions Gorg-o-mish and Open Studios. Their releases span a vinyl drop on OSF(Nur Jaber), VA features on Soma Records and Life In Patterns, and a full-length collaboration with Moteka on Skryptöm.

From hypnotic grooves to atmospheric breakdowns, ''Skin EP'' is a masterclass in emotional intensity and late-night energy. Our premiere, ''Lost Place (Alt Drive Mix)'' perfectly suits the heat of summer and the sweat of packed clubs.

Na Nich (@sunchase) returns to Delsin following up his 2023 'Black Soil' EP. On 'White Soil' the Ukrainian producer continues his queeste pushing the boundaries of deep immersive techno. Compared to the previous chapter, ‘White Soil’ contains a significant lighter touch. Playing with subtle melodies and musing atmospheres to set an uplifting tone. It's still powerful and propulsive while this sparkle of brightness provides a strikingly fresh angle.
