Loop of Life is presenting the diverse palette of analog synthesizers and drum machines of Kuiper Belt. A wide range of tracks kicking off with a harsh and heavy 808 slow burner filled with 303 acid. ‘Prg Select’ and ‘Two Voice’ both drawing inspiration from the underground techno scene with pulsating beats and bleeps that truly resonates. An melancholic analog machine soul electro track with vocoder vocals closing off the EP in style.
Eduardo de la Calle and DJ Surgeles meet Fabio Giachino, David Strike, and Manu Melero Amaya in Telmaco Xavier Quintet, a project where jazz and electronics engage in a real-time exchange rather than a controlled experiment. “Time Pawn” is built on interaction – musicians and machines reacting to each other, shifting between structure and instinct. Eduardo and Surgeles don’t frame jazz within an electronic grid, nor do they treat electronic textures as a decorative layer. Instead, they allow both elements to retain their full character, pushing and pulling in ways that never settle into easy resolutions. Fabio Giachino’s piano moves freely, alternately threading through and cutting across the pulse. David Strike and Manu Melero Amaya bring movement that resists the obvious, allowing groove to exist without being locked in place. The result isn’t about merging styles but letting them exist in the same space–sometimes in harmony, sometimes in friction, always in motion.
A classy new Format release, 30 years after the previous one. Three genre defying club grooves continuing where #3 left of. It opens with ”The Session Continues”, a track that captures the playful spirit of the ’91 Solid Session. Followed by the off kilter ‘Tjirp’ with a hook that will be with you for a while… closing out the EP with the introverted Detroit style deepness of ‘Safe Haven’.
A new collaborative release by labels Transmigration and Sound Migration, featuring a reissue of Italian sonic polymath J.P Energy. ‘Prima Dell’ Alba / Forbidden Planet’ are two sophisticated and sinister percussive tracks from 1997 that sit at the boundaries of Techno & Trance, indicative of the fruitfulness of creativity in underground dance music from Italy during this time. The release is completed with with a modern revision of Forbidden Planet by J.P Energy himself.
Tresor resident DJs LNS and DJ Sotofett have for some years been developing a style at the club‘s Globus floor, and their new EP is a die cut of exactly the classic techno, electro, and house music they play. Here are no productions drenched in reverb, no hi-fi obsessions or generic algorithmic patterns – this is Globus Trax, the duo’s third release on Tresor Records, four tracks consisting of real TR-909 workouts, rude and driving basslines, live runs through the mixing desk, and a Blake Baxter cover version with LNS on vocals.
A Benumbed Waiting is a ruthless odyssey where reality bends and the rhythm of chaos takes hold. This Limited Edition Cassette album contains 15 tracks featuring an unholy marriage of Barcelona’s underground stew and international artists who somehow know exactly how to make pulsating noise feel like liberation. The compilation oozes grit and mad creativity, from deep acid basslines to harsh industrial textures, wonky bass explosions and driving electro rhythms.
E-bony joins the Industrias Mekanikas family to present ‘Digital Dawn’, an album that defines his identity as an artist. Twelve tracks in which electro and techno intertwine to create a unique and personal sound. A sonic manifesto composed of twelve tracks that explore the darkest textures and the most hypnotic rhythms of underground electronic. In this work, E-bony is not alone. The talent of Noamm is woven into four of the tracks, adding an additional layer of complexity and experimentation.
New release from the Another Perpective, the electronic music label based in Seville run by Rise Black. This one comes from Curtis Electronix founder with his latest project Leite Dos Santos.
”Arkeo is my most eclectic and techno-driven album to date. A fusion of my love for subterranean aesthetics and my deeply-rooted connection to Detroit’s underground music scene. While always keeping the dance floor in mind, this album also reflects something more personal: my spiritual journey and how it applies to my daily life.”
MCMLXV might be on your radar for its quality output in the realms of dub techno. This time out though it veers more towards club tackle and is less heavy on the dub via the work of label head JS Zeiter. ‘Outline’ stars in a deep, pensive groove with glistening hi-hats cutting up the smooth bass. ‘Taken’ is another mid-tempo plodder that comes alive with nice heady synth curlicues that add some scale. ‘Navigate’ keeps these serene vibes flowing with more deft and wispy pads colouring the rooted beats and ‘Resistance’ shuts down with more swaggering bass.
Jerical returns with four dubs that don’t beg. TAR031 means basement gear, rough-edged, nights that last long in places that no one leaves.
“Pride Or Die is our next fundraiser compilation released in solidarity with Budapest Pride.
In March 2025 the Hungarian Parliament rewrote the country’s assembly law, tightening the rules for all public demonstrations — but with wording clearly aimed at shutting down Pride. The amendment threatens marchers and organisers with fines of up to €500 and lets police deploy facial‑recognition systems. It follows a 2020 ban on legal gender recognition and the 2021 law censoring LGBTQ+ content for minors.
Meanwhile, the government continues to target civil organisations more broadly, signalling an even darker outlook for the future of democratic rights and community spaces in Hungary.
To answer this attack on basic civil and queer rights, Dalmata Daniel teamed up with 34 artists from Hungary and across the globe to contribute exclusive tracks. The result is a diverse, powerful collection that channels solidarity, resistance, and care through sound.
All proceeds will be donated to the Budapest Pride Foundation (Szivárvány Misszió Alapítvány)

Noamm delivers a deep electro statement that resonates far beyond the dancefloor. A dark and introspective six-track journey through fractured emotion and internal tension.
Swedish EBM hero Celldod is back on Electronic Emergencies with a full album on transparent magenta vinyl! På Liv Och Död is an electronically driven emotional bomb with references to D.A.F. and Front 242. It features collaborations with Leroy Se Meurt from Paris and Michael Zodorozny of Crash Course in Science, as well as Anders Karlsson’s own Swedish lyrics about death and the meaning of life. Each track is a wild invitation to dance away our fears in this complex world of impending doom.
Marking their first release on Zodiak Commune Records, Minimum Syndicat unleashes the Revelation EP, a powerful showcase of electro and acid techno.
