Larionov lands on Tiger Weeds with 'No Way Back'. A direct, tension driven electro EP shaped by raw sequences, melancholic tones and steady forward motion. Throughout the release, Larionov balances stripped-back introspection with functional dancefloor energy. On remix duties, The Exaltics drags 'Celestial Ocean' into darker territory, applying his signature cinematic pressure to create a heavy, peak time version. No gimmicks. No fillers. No way back.
Detroit In Effect and Alden Tyrell return for the second chapter in an ongoing creative exchange between two longtime friends and affiliates of the label. Deeply rooted in early hip hop, electro and Detroit techno, the two producers channel the raw energy and futurism of late 80s and early 90s machine music into a set of fierce, fast-paced tracks. This is a record that couldn't have been made 30 years ago, yet somehow it sounds like a forgotten studio session recovered from the future. The record balances old-school beat science with forward-driven early 90's techno futurism and modern production skills, built with one clear intention: Moving People.
Contours brings together New York-based producers and DJs Abby Echiverri and Clay Wilson for a four-track 12" on Acid Camp Records. The record moves across acid house and techno, unified by a clear craft for pressure, pacing, and machine-driven tracks, with moments of restraint that hold up far beyond the dancefloor. Wilson opens the A-side with "Interdimensional Romance," a science fiction workout that threads together acid echoes of Chicago, Detroit, and New York. "Nightride" follows with a more laid-back approach, rooted in acid yet softer around the edges, with a subtle '90s pull. On the B-side, Echiverri's panned synths on "Chaos Terrain" vividly wax and wane across layers of LFOs. "Roche Lobe" closes the record in a more spacious mood-another acid-minded piece, less aimed at peak-time utility than at the late-night afterglow of the club. Together, the four tracks understand acid not as a fixed formula, but as a flexible language. These are the songs of the underground clubs on Arrakis. See you at the front of the speakers.

We're back with Neighbourhood Watch Volume 8, locking in 5 artists from across the underground that have been on heavy rotation. Paul Blackford opens the VA with a laid-back electro cut that leans into his signature bass-driven sound. Since his debut on Breakin' Records in 2003, widely recognised as a pioneering UK take on the electro bass style, he has built a deep catalogue across a range of respected labels. His productions sit in a downtempo space, shaped by rich textures and weighty low-end, giving his sound a distinct and enduring character. Kosmodod is a Reykjavik-based artist and member of the Sweaty Records crew, steadily carving out a place in the electro underground. Also known as one half of Polar Attraction alongside jadzia, his output leans into crisp, functional rhythms with a distinct, off-kilter edge. Fresh off a remix on our latest vinyl with Volruptus, he continues to showcase a sharp, club-ready sound that's both refined and unpredictable, a true electro wizard. Konerytmi is an alias of long-time electro artist Kirill Junolainen, whose extensive catalogue spans over 100 releases, including more than 60 on vinyl. Moving fluidly across genres and moods, his work is defined by a fusion of rich melodic elements and forward-facing, hard-hitting rhythms. With a deep-rooted presence in the electro scene, he continues to deliver a sound that feels both expansive and unmistakably his own. Niklas Roland is a DJ and producer based in Augsburg, navigating a wide spectrum of electronic music with a curious and open approach. While his sound draws from across genres, he consistently returns to electro and breakbeats, driven by their high-energy and playful club appeal. With previous releases like '861 Phonk' already making an impact, he continues to refine a style that balances versatility with a clear rhythmic identity, with more material on the way. Carl Hang is a Berlin-based artist blending disco, boogie and ghetto tech into a sound built for the dancefloor. Alongside his work in the rap duo Hang & Otto, he has remained a steady presence in the city's scene, known for bringing a raw and playful energy to both his productions and DJ sets. With releases on Deck 2 Deck Records and a growing reputation across Berlin clubs, his output continues to balance groove, attitude and club-ready impact. Mastered by Zac Wilson.
Kalanis A Clearing Opens EP starts with the title track, in which razor-sharp breaks are set against soft, lush tones, before hitting the big times with an irresistible hands-in-the-air drop after the breakdown. Motion Blur is next, pared-back drums forming the base as its chords trail o into wonky territories before Strange Object continues with more playful melodies and bubbling sounds. Big Swell finishes proceedings, a stormy, progressive cut that builds through rich synth work that washes over a hard-hitting electro groove, raw reese bass, and acid touches forming the low-end.
Curated by Queer Future Club, this collective of queers from outer space, Vera Moro and Azo, the minds behind the project, have assembled their favorite sounds into a cohesive first compilation. This long-awaited label first release brings together some of the finest queer artists, across different styles, all sharing the same energy.

Then comes the amazing queer producer Julie Desire with Move Your Body, a progressive track whose percussion pulls you straight into trance. It flows into a groovy, warm track from aza the black groove, a rising talent to follow, and lands on Stanislawas dreamy Paradise, merging tropical rhythms with trance, her signature touch. This is a compilation made for a summer you never want to end, the kind of nights you wish could last forever. Latin and tropical influences meet hypnotic electronic rhythms, a tribute to the sun and the way it makes everyone feel free, warm, and alive.

The return of ELECTRO MUSIC COALITION affiliate sin:it:sin with his new EP Obsolete Technology picks up where his previous EMC release left off - delving deeper into melodically expressive, narratively rich arrangements that inject new substance into the genre and contribute to shaping a gold standard for club-oriented ELECTRO. The opening track, Eru, begins with an arpeggiated phrase and a melodic passage in natural minor, laid delicately over a muted, cavernous pad. After about a minute, the drums make their entrance, gradually accumulating melodic ornamentation and additional layers, forming a groove that is easy on the ear yet quietly hypnotic. As the track progresses, a gentle, reflective synth motif played in the upper register becomes the focal point - only to be replaced, in a neat full-circle gesture, by the initial theme as the piece comes to a close. Infoseek continues the EP's commitment to layered structures. It opens with a simple synth riff, soon joined by a crisp break-kick and a second melodic line. A low-pitched acid line adds a shadowy tint, while the main melody undergoes subtle development. With its lack of overt accents, Infoseek comes across as smooth, airy, and refined. Infra-City Transit introduces a sharper contrast, hitting the gas right out of the gate. The track kicks off with an accented snare, brought into full swing by a weighty bassline. Though it initially seems to steer toward a static, dark-edged arrangement, a few bars in, the composer once again reveals his melodic finesse - never at the expense of the overall groove, but always in service of it. The flip side of the 12-inch opens with Solar Filter, a track that harks back to the label's earlier catalog. A brooding, futuristic sub-bass progresses steadily, energized by ascending high-register sequences. The result is a flowing yet impactful track that balances tension and elegance with ease. The title track, Obsolete Technology, keeps the listener in suspense. It begins with luminous harmonies, percussive breaks, and squelchy square-wave synths, gradually building into a layered crescendo of piercing high-frequency noise passages. These alternate with a different synth hook, maintaining a taut tension throughout the track's core. The EP concludes with Dimension Door, where a staccato bassline locks in tightly with the rhythmic pattern, spiraling downward into a subterranean zone. The track feels like a discharge of toxic residue, serving as a kind of outro for the mini-album - and perhaps a gateway into a new phase of ELECTRO's evolution. Once again, the release demonstrates the composer's ingenuity. These deeply thought-out works form a complete and coherent whole, resisting the trends of melodic minimalism while, in some ways, bringing the listener back to the genre's roots - to the art of full-bodied, structured arrangement.
