2025 Best Tracks part. 3 (of 10)
a.r.t.less
Aubrey – Super Analog EP [A.R.T.LESS2165]
Since the early 90s the name Aubrey has stood for authentic UK Techno with deep roots in Chicago, Detroit and New York. His “Super Analog EP” for Mojuba sublabel a.r.t.less isn’t a look back, but a statement on the timeless power of analog sound. The four tracks are a journey through a spectrum of moods: from the cosmic expanse of “Big Six” and the playful acid touches of “Time Flying” to the raw, hypnotic energy of “Robber Nose” and the wistful depth of “Mysterious Rhythm.” This is music that can connect generations, an inspiration for seasoned listeners and new explorers alike. A stunning label debut that needs no grand explanation because it tells its own powerful story.
Roseen – Conditioning Chamber EP [A.R.T.LESS2167]
Roseen joins the a.r.t.less label family. His debut on the Mojuba sublabel brings four uncompromising, club-ready belters in the finest Detroit Techno manner – relentlessly kicking, timelessly grooving, and delivering minimalistic sci-fi techno escapism of the highest order.
Session Restore / Bernhard Hudalla – Pathfinder EP [A.R.T.LESS2170]
At the end of the day, it’s about human touch, personal connection and emotional reactions. It is with great pleasure and more than happy to welcome Session Restore and Bernhard Hudalla to the family with a superb debut 12” for the Mojuba sublabel a.r.t.less. A friendship and collaboration that connects musical dots between Hanover and Leipzig results in the Pathfinder EP with four excellent tracks that range from the finest dubbed out to heartwarming, melodic deep Techno.
Convextion – R-CNVX2 [ARTLESSVEXTRE2]
Long awaited reissue of classic Convextion tracks originally released on Matrix Records Detroit.
Adlas – Convergence EP [A.R.T.LESS2171]
Adlas joins the a.r.t.less family with his debut called Convergence EP. Here he presents four more four-to-the-floor driving and mesmerizing Techno tracks that tick all the right boxes. Think swinging Dub Techno, DJ Power Tools with a tribal twist and an undeniable deepness factor.
Viktor Apo – Regenerate EP [A.R.T.LESS2172]
Berlin’s Mojuba Records welcome Viktor Apo to the a.r.t.less family, exporting these sonic labour-fruits from the heart of Macedonia. ‘Regenerate’ is a wicked Detroit-technical EP; fast, hat-led, synthetically morphologic. Opener ‘Flow’ lives up to its name with a meandering, oxbow-laking chordstream set channelled through a driving, pistoning techno backbone. Then come the comparative cascaders ‘Royal S’ and ‘Regenerate’, both of which keep the pace. Finally, we’re met with ‘Aerial Scape’, which occupies a strange boxy stratosphere – an ultra-minimal track in progression and texture.
Reel By Real – Tic Tac EP [A.R.T.LESS2173]
Reel By Real aka Martin Bonds from Detroit comes with three new original tracks on a.r.t.less, harnessing extra terrestrial vibes combined with Detroit Techno and Electro magic. The EP is completed by a stripped down space funk remix from label boss Don Williams.
O-Wells – Liquid Sun EP [A.R.T.LESSXTR1]
O-Wells aka Frankfurt Bass is back on Mojuba sub label a.r.t.less with some very tasty life affirming sun showered Detroit Techno for your heart and soul. This special musical treat called Liquid Sun comes in four different mixes to suit your every needs from club dance floors to living rooms and beyond.
Vivian Koch – The Owleon [ARTLESS2177]
Mojuba’s sublabel a.r.t.less presents the debut release by Vivian Koch. Electro synthesizer dreams for days.
Convextion – R-CNVX1 [ARTLESSVEXTRE1]
The release of any new Gerard Hanson record is a cause for celebration. It marks the long-serving producer’s first solo Convextion release since 2016 and contains two killer cuts. The un-titled A-side is particularly impressive, with Hanson wrapping immersive, delay-laden electronics and sumptuous deep space chords around a bustling, dub-fired Motor City techno groove. Even by his standards, it’s superb. Over on side B, he’s back in atmospheric deep techno mode, offering up a poignant and melancholic affair that’s as deep, spacey and emotional as anything he’s ever done before.
Waveguide – Quod EP [ARTLESS2179]
Over the years, Ken Sumitani has released a decent amount of rather good music, primarily under the Stereociti and Mono Village aliases. This, though, marks his debut under a new alter ego: Waveguide. As debuts go, it’s something of a triumph, too, serving up four essential, tried-and-tested cuts. There are two high-octane, electro-influenced offerings: the sun-bright, funk-fueled melodic bliss of “Lemma” and the heavier, raw-sounding “Tightrope”, whose skittish beats are offset by some delightfully deep melodies and even deeper chords. You’ll find some similarly smooth and hypnotic chords on the brilliant deep techno dubbiness of EP opener “Quod”, while “Cubic Root” sees the Japanese producer successfully wrap restless synth loops around a mildly trippy, Motor City influenced rhythm track.
Stojche – Magnitude EP [ARTLESS218120021]
Stojche with some uplifting, classy, mid 1990s Detroit school trained Techno EP for A.r.t.less.
JP Enfant – Virtus EP [ARTLESS2183]
JP Enfant with a crafty, uplifting, highly effective 1990s Detroit Techno futurism schooled EP on a.r.t.less.

Mojuba sub label a.r.t.less presents the second 12 by Munich Techno Duo Trap10. Three cuts of high quality Detroit influenced no nonsens Techno, ranging from heavy peak time action to subtle emotion ladden deepnes. Classy, driving, mid 1990s Detroit school reminiscent Techno.
Convextion – 2845 [ARTLESS2845]
2845 is Gerard Hanson’s first full-length as Convextion in a decade. The new album is made up of seven characteristically spacy techno cuts, and is his first release with the Mojuba-affiliated a.r.t.less.
Trap10 – Interregnum EP [ARTLESS2184]
Mojuba sub label a.r.t.less presents the second 12 by Munich Techno Duo Trap10. Three cuts of high quality Detroit influenced no nonsens Techno, ranging from heavy peak time action to subtle emotion ladden deepnes.
Darko Esser – Juilce EP [ARTLESS2186]
Mojuba sub label a.r.t.less welcomes another addition to the label roster, dutch Techno boss Darko Esser. In more recent time he showcased his talents under the acclaimed Tripeo moniker, but now it’s time to unleash a powerful and very emotional EP under his original name.
