T.Y.L. - Victory (Original Mix)

Argentine-born and Chile-based producer CementO returns to Holiday Addict with Unsane Vision, a techno EP that functions as both sonic time capsule and personal manifesto. Composed largely of unreleased material dating back two decades, this release captures the raw tension of an era marked by global anxiety — filtered through distorted rhythms, relentless BPMs, and politically charged samples that still sting with relevance.

The sound design is unapologetically abrasive. Kick drums land like blunt-force trauma, wrapped in analog hiss and saturated beyond conventional thresholds. Synths don’t shimmer — they groan, corrode, and rupture across the stereo field, channeling a type of industrial decay that feels less like aesthetic choice and more like existential condition. CementO leans into chaos, rejecting polish in favor of emotional directness.

What unifies the EP is its refusal to compromise. Each track is built to provoke, with dense rhythmic programming that borders on hostile and textures that demand physical spaces — dark clubs, illegal warehouses, nowhere polite. George W. Bush-era speech fragments interspersed across the record don’t serve as commentary; they’re used like debris, embedded in the concrete mix of CementO’s sonic architecture.

Unsane Vision doesn’t seek approval — it asserts presence. It’s techno that snarls rather than seduces, grounded in a DIY ethos and a clear desire to sound different for every pair of ears. For listeners drawn to the genre’s confrontational edges, CementO delivers something bracing, unfiltered, and fiercely rooted in its own logic.

Hollow Day

"This album is my personal expression of freedom and inspiration. It reflects my experiences in this genre, freeing myself from old patterns of electronic music and finding an authentic version of myself."

"Dieses Album ist mein persönlicher Ausdruck an die Freiheit und der Inspiration. Es spiegelt meine Erfahrungen in diesem Genre wider, mich von alten Mustern der Elektronischen Musik zu befreien und zu einer authentischen Version meiner selbst zu finden."

------------------------------------
Foundation and Early Years (1993–2003)
------------------------------------
In 1993, DJ Zodiak (Marc Pulles) founded Zodiak Commune (partyorganisation), initially as a spontaneous rave after a birthday party. The collective quickly became a legendary force in the Dutch electronic underground. Zodiak was the driving force behind Zodiak Commune parties, a central figure in shaping the second wave of underground Acid and Electro in the Netherlands.

------------------------------------
Foundation and Early Years (1998–2003)
------------------------------------
Zodiak Commune Records (the label) was founded in 1998 by DJ Zodiak as the label arm of the Zodiak Commune collective. From the start, the label was vinyl-first, representing the raw and innovative spirit of Acid music.

The label released tracks covering the breadth of underground acid styles, including Acid Techno, Electro Acid, and Acid IDM, and quickly became recognized as an influential player in the Dutch electronic underground, helping to shape and sculpt the scene.

Between 1998 and 2003, the label also organized Zodiak Commune Records label parties at major cultural venues, including Effenaar (Eindhoven), Doornroosje (Nijmegen), 013 (Tilburg), and other locations across the Netherlands and Belgium.

------------------------------------
Slower Phase (2003–2017)
------------------------------------
After Zodiak stepped back as a DJ and transferred the Zodiak Commune party organization to a non-profit foundation in 2003, the label entered a slower period. Releases were less frequent, but Zodiak Commune Records remained active and respected in the underground scene.

------------------------------------
Revival and Expansion (2017–Present)
------------------------------------
In 2017, Zodiak fully reactivated the label, returning with renewed energy and focus. Since then, Zodiak Commune Records has expanded its activities and built a strong international presence, while remaining true to its vinyl-first Acid identity.

The label now operates multiple sub-labels, including:
* Deep Acid Records – Electro House–oriented
* Outlaw303 – Raw Acid and Electro Acid
* Same Size Soul – Pure Electro
This structure allows the label to explore different underground sounds while staying deeply rooted in the Acid movement.

Zodiak Commune Records places a strong emphasis on supporting new talent alongside established artists, providing a platform for fresh voices in the scene. The team behind the label includes:
* Zodiak (Marc Pulles) – founder & head
* Chris Nexus Six– artwork and visual identity
* Paul Renard – Acid- House & Techno focus – Deep Acid & Zodiak Commune Records
* DJ Feryne – Electro focus – Same Size Soul & Zodiak Commune Records
* G303 – Acid specialist
* Stefan ZMK – Mastering

Together, the team continues to push the underground Acid and Electro movement forward, with the label standing as one of the most consistent and respected names in the European Acid scene.

Looking ahead, Zodiak Commune Records plans to resume label parties, continuing the tradition of live events that showcase their artists and connect directly with the underground community.

-------------------------------------
Important Distinction
Since 2003, Zodiak Commune (the party organization) and Zodiak Commune Records (the label) have been completely separate entities, each with its own team and activities. Zodiak remains fully involved with the label but is no longer connected to the party organization.

------------------------------------
