A few weeks back, Solar Paint, the debut EP of international sound explorer Sebastian Mullaert and vocalist Layla Rehana, gifted us with four tracks that felt as if theyre inviting us to solve a sun-drenched mystery. Now, the companion EP The Melodies In Between follows a similar path but explores it in a different fashion. In comparison, the duos sophomore offering feels more song-based, it presents more structure in a classic sense and flirts with beats and different rhythms - the underlying emotion luckily stays the very same, though. Its about transience, a gentle musical stream of consciousness thats tracing a memory of moments you havent experienced yet. Although were slowly but steadily entering the annual phase of shorter and darker days, their sun clearly sets only to rise and shine again.

cv313 and Federsen join forces again for the Altering Dimensions Part One release, the initial drop in a series of collaborations which will later form together as one long player project. Detroit-based dub techno pioneer cv313 (Stephen Hitchell of Echospace fame) and Federsen join forces on the forthcoming collaborative EP Altering Dimensions via Federsens own Alt Dub imprint. cv313, known for landmark releases such as Seconds to Forever and the deeply influential Dimensional Space LP, has been central to shaping the modern dub techno sound, blending immersive atmospheres with hypnotic rhythms. Federsen, celebrated for releases on Echospace Detroit, Grayscale, Synchrophone, Lempayung, Avant Roots and others. has also established himself as one of the genres most forward-thinking producers, bringing a meticulous, analogue driven warmth to his productions. Altering Dimensions marks a meeting of two highly respected producers in contemporary dub techno, bridging Detroits timeless legacy with Federsens cutting-edge sonic explorations. The release comprises four alternate interpretations of the title-cut and leading the way is the original mix of Altering Dimensions, a seven-and-a-half-minute excursion through weighty low-end pulsations, spiralling atmospherics and ever unfolding nuance throughout. The Redesign follows and shifts gears into a more robust deep techno realm as cavernous reverberations and shifting echoes ebb and flow alongside murky bass and sturdy drums. The Dub mix follows on the flip-side, as the name would suggest laying focus on a more classic dub techno style with crisp percussion, billowing spaced out delays and vacillating subs before the Reduction mix concludes the project, as the name would suggest stripping things down to the composition core atmospherics elements alongside oscillating percussive elements and fluctuating pads.

Ten years after her first release, electronic musician Mor Elian presents her debut album Solid Space. Showing her full artistic range, the LP drifts between dream-like listening states and experimental club spaces. Written in a transitional time, these compositions arrived in emotional, unfiltered bursts. Solid Space brings together ambient textures, early IDM structures, and experimental electronics, with distant, hazy vocals converging into a single, subconscious flow. It is released by adventurous electronic music label topo2 on November 28, 2025. The record is pressed on 180 grams of ICCS-certified bio-vinyl, housed in a heavy full-colour sleeve, and comes with a download-code to the full release.

Planet Mu welcomes new signing Rev also known as 26 year old Raymond Hu from Chongqing in South West China, a city best known musically for its thriving rap scene. This scene initially inspired Raymond to produce music, but unable to find a satisfactory vocalist/songwriter to complete his sound, he started to build his own by cutting up, reordering and editing mostly feminine pop vocals instead of working with a rapper. Its a process with an element of chance, a proxy that balances the familiar and the uncanny. In turn, these characteristics carry across to Revs artist name too. He says Among my friends Im often called Lai Fu (来福), which is the direct phonetic rendering of Rev into Mandarin, and in Chinese it literally means Get Lucky. But also, Rev is short for Reverse, playing something backwards, an editing technique he uses, where the sound of the familiar and uncanny mix. Revs six track Planet Mu debut Stay, Nomad is sparse and deeply felt, composed with a graceful sense of weightlessness and space. Rhythms crack and bounce around melody, effects and reverb which suck air in and out of the sound design, while vocals thread through this mix like eerie holograms. Opener Mind Game which was on the Planet Mu 30 compilation and also appears here with a mind-bending remix from Chewlie, starts with a naked piano, opening up into something that glows with disembodied vocals yearning over dub-like phrases, that lift and dissipate like fireworks. In contrast, first single Stutter builds up slithers of choir-like and chipmunked vocals into strange shapes over fuzzy piano, until saw-like drums cut in half way through giving the serene mood a fearful, nervous edge. We hope you enjoy this new EP as much as we do.

Polygum aka Ratman/Violent Beggar/Harry Bismuth makes his debut on Love Love with Toy Music from Toy Town. Hailing from the eerie, utopian city of Milton Keynes, a short ways from London, Polygum first started making braindance music on GarageBand for iPhone SE back in 2019/2020 alongside his studies. Bubbling away in his bedroom studio he hypnotically produces ambient and accelerating child-like beats across a range of styles, sometimes nostalgic and solemn, full of swirling pixie organs, multicoloured melodies and hard hitting trip hop breakbeats. Outside of music Polygum works as a comic artist and freelance graphic designer, most notably designing the infamous hello kitty x aphex twin bootleg shirt produced by Sports Banger. Polygum makes music that sounds as specific, surreal and uniquely displaced as Milton Keynes life feels - The whole town feels really artificial like a model or Nuketown which kinda inspired the title. It can get very boring here so playfulness is a real skill used to stay sane, making music from such a place... it ends up getting into the sound. Often producing tracks after long late shifts at warehouses across the city, fuelled by boredom and inspired by the scenes of each day, the album originally started as a means of capturing his manic relationship with the unsettling hyper-capitalist emptiness and isolation experienced since moving back from home after finishing his studies. Toy Music from Toy Town is a selection of the tracks and experiments made over 2019 - 2024 that were most reflective of these experiences, retrieved from the ammo crate he stores his hard drives in.

Delsin invites you to submerge into the prismatic electronica of Xenia Reaper. Across nine tracks of exquisitely rendered sonics, the shadowy producer engages in the time-honoured craft of introspective sound manipulation, folding gaseous pads into dissected breaks and running heavyweight machine pulses through achingly beautiful synthesis. Xenias work makes a striking impression, and theyve left a breadcrumb trail of self-released transmissions on their own Xenoplex platform alongside a more forthright appearance in 2024 on the always-essential INDEX:Records. The sound is sharply realised, modernist music that revels in the finegrain detail afforded by technology, but never at the expense of warmth and charm. Its nuanced electronica for deep listening, but it also hits on an instinctive, physical level. For Nept Polarisation, an exacting selection process took place to comb through the prolific swathes of material coming out of the Xenoplex studio. It was primarily written in their Eurorack system and Max For Live between 2020 and 2025. You can hear the shifting, expressive flair of modular manipulation and the advanced acrobatics of Max sound design throughout, with needlepoint rhythmic interference puncturing through blissful cloud blooms of melodic ambience. Bending and folding through non-linear structures according to their internal logic, Xenia Reaper offers up a three-dimensional sound world with more than enough presence to hint suggestively at the soundsystem.
