Estado De Bienestar – Capítulo III : La Anarquía Sónica [OR148]
Estado De Bienestar keeps pushing deeper into sonic chaos with “La Anarquía Sónica” — a raw, proto, and visceral journey built on hand-crafted beats, deliciously unhinged basslines and immersive field recordings. Music for the restless. For those obsessed with sound. For anyone tired of hearing the same thing over and over again. Dystopian music for a universal shift. This time, Estado De Bienestar joins forces with Belgian synth guru Peter Bonne / Chayell Zenn (Linear Movement, Twilight Ritual) to rework “The Enochian Keepers of Time” into an emo-electro industrial aberration titled “Guardianes del Tiempo.”
The Midnight Computers – Dark Disco Vol. 1 [WCR003LP]
Diving deeper into electronic realms, The Midnight Computers return with a new LP where coldwave meets hypnotic dark disco, on Worst Crime Records. Staying true to their signature brooding atmosphere, the band explores a more synthetic sound, blending pulsating beats, driving basslines, and icy melodies.
Gofret – Ankara Yolları Angara Havası [Arşivplak]
Experience the vibrant heart of Turkey with “Ankara Yolları Angara Havası,” a definitive collection of folk songs and dance beats (Oyun Havaları) straight from the Ankara region. Whether you are cruising down a long highway or just need to bring the festive spirit of a Turkish wedding to your living room, this album is your ultimate musical companion. High-energy renditions of Ankara’s most famous Oyun Havaları that will make it impossible to sit still. Ankara’s music is famous for its unique rhythm and the soulful sound of the electric bağlama. This album captures that raw, electric energy – ofteen referred to as “Angara Havası” – and blends it with professional arrangements that keep the beat driving forward.
Skyline Systems – Escape Vector [PE024]
Skyline Systems emerges from Australia with Escape Vector — four deeply elegant cuts rooted in the classic deep Detroit influenced sound. Stripped-back and refined, the producer crafts machine-driven landscapes where analog synths and drum machines intertwine with a hypnotic, subtly futuristic groove. Warm, fluid basslines, shimmering metallic chords and a steady pulse invite both introspection and late-night dancefloor drift. Minimal yet immersive, Escape Vector distills the essence of Detroit’s deep house and electro heritage while adding a contemporary sense of space and precision.
VA – El Elektro Compilado Padrísimo Vol. 1 [OR147]
El Elektro Compilado Padrísimo Vol.1 is a fearless snapshot of the Spaniard national electro scene, curated by Dark Vektor aka San Vektorsito – the padrino who binds it all together. Established figures stand shoulder to shoulder with new blood, generating a current where tradition and innovation collide in sparks. This compilation pulses as both a map and manifesto: raw, urgent, and unapologetically futuristic. Every track is a charged fragment of a collective identity, soldered into one unstoppable groove. A declaration that the Spanish electro underground is alive, mutating, and absolutely padrísimo.
Robert Cosmic – ElectroVision [MARS003V]
ElectroVision includes three Robert Cosmic iconic tracks, completely sold out for years, now remastered and included in one vinyl and a new track “Door Mir”, appearing on vinyl for the first time.
VA – Constellations Vol. 3 [MTRON045]
Mechatronica’s journey continues with Constellations Vol. 3, weaving together a powerful blend of electro and techno. Anthony Rother delivers his signature precision in sound design, while Maelstrom bends the grid with a glitchy, IDM-infused excursion. Credit 00 dives deep into electro’s darker corners, joined by a trippy collaboration from Serge Geyzel & Dagga, the rolling energy of TaronX, and The Spy’s industrial-tinged intensity.
