Following the resonance of About Last Night, Berlin-based artist Jil Tanner returns to ICONYC Red to deliver one of the labels final and most definitive manifestos—a powerful compilation mixed and curated by Tanner herself. Our journey opens with He Told Mes Dark Harbor (Carbon Remix), setting an electric pace for the rest of this mix. With a throbbing low end, this piece races across tunnels in search of fizzy sequences and lingering notes before overlapping with Kaiser Souzais In Excess. Another ICONYC Red stalwart, Souzai, slowly amps the tension with a series of tight string swells and meandering vocals over cascading arpeggios for a haunting apparition. He Told Me resurfaces with a vengeance on Angel Dust (BOHO Remix), where a feral bassline tears through the mix like a rogue current, twisting and mutating with unrelenting force. The chaos gives way to Soolvers Jahwe, which surges forward with pounding rhythms and bold brass flourishes—a commanding presence that refuses to be ignored. ClonesForHires Captive Mind shifts the mood into spectral territory, where disembodied voices flicker through a driving rhythm, conjuring a late-night séance of introspection and propulsion. The illusion intensifies as Rachel Raws Pineapple kicks in—a slick, hypermodern ride built on staccato hats and effervescent synth lines, each element pushing us deeper into the subterranean pulse of the mix. Coming in hot, Mafia B & Rami Paradise link up for Inside His Soul, where a heavy beat stomps is way across delectable vocal flourishes and acidic stabs until it breaks new ground for our following act. Leaving its mark with its jet-black bursts, Santiablos Mercado Sonorra moves forward as surging tides swell and crash against the frame with unbridled thrust. Blazing up, Jil Tanner deploys her celebrated About Last Night, a gargantuan rollercoaster that takes us higher with its explosive percussion and classic techno-laced synths before unveiling a gripping breakdown. As we pick up on the last curves, AQUOs Reborn Survivor (Markus Volker Remix) works its endless throbbing, coursing through uncharted terrain with its lingering wails and irresistible riff. Making a spectral apparition, Santiablos Tepetlapa sithers over tinkering hi-hats as grinding gears and malfunctioning electronics escort us across haunted halls where the ghosts of tomorrow come alive as it leads the way to our next stop. Then, without warning, we go deeper underground with ANMAs Relinquo. Between sprawling synths and its vocal laments, this piece is a downward spiral that challenges imagination with every passing beat. On our last turn, Rubinas Insomnia takes hold with its delectable chord stabs and tantalizing key strokes that rummage through gritty corners and dusty rooms before making way for our final chapter. Making a grand return thanks to Kaiser Souzais own twist, Jil Tanners About Last Night has the last say with its throwback to the heady, tribal club-sound of the aughties for a showstopping finale.
