2026 is shaping up to be a defining year for Kristin Velvet. With recent and upcoming EPs on Exit Strategy and Hot Creations, momentum is firmly on her side. Yet even as new horizons open, Kristin remains deeply connected to Arms & Legs - the label she's called home and carefully built alongside Daniel Steinberg for the past 15 years. La Cosmic leads the release with an 80s-inspired, instrumental drive: shimmering synth lines, forward motion, and a sense of cosmic nostalgia tailored for late-night dancefloors. Sleek, confident, and effortlessly hypnotic, it locks into a timeless yet forward-facing groove. On the flip, Supersonic dives into avant-garde, sci-fi-tinged electro madness. Powerful, crisp beats collide with atmospheric synths, wonky basslines, and a raw futuristic edge - a track that feels both experimental and explosively functional. Together, La Cosmic / Supersonic captures Kristin Velvet at a creative peak: rooted, fearless, and unmistakably forward-thinking.

Posh End Music boss Fear-E returns with his second albumDescent into Ascension (Snapshots of a Mental State)this February. Recorded during a period of withdrawal and isolation, the release serves as a diary of a mental state as the producer worked through a period of challenging mental health. Here, he hones in on his primary love of techno bringing in influences of Bangaltar-ish French house and disco and also pays homage to EBM originators Nitzer Ebb.

Planet Zebes - EP composed by French artist Hylian Fields, in which he seeks to convey the feeling of tension and doom he experienced when first playing one of his favorite video games "Super Metroid", as certain aspects of its universe left a deep impression on him. The idea was to adapt it to his vision of electro, to pay tribute to a type of creation that is too often overlooked as art. The two powerful electro-break remixes are composed by French artists Reallyraw and Lemon Schaden. Distributed by Label Engine - www.label-engine.com

Monotone Sound is keen to announce the release of ORBITTECH, by the versatile Artist Tim Sean-Lee. This drop marks Monotone Sounds comeback after over a year in the shadows, featuring four slick tracks that flaunt Tim Sean-Lees cutting-edge vibes and industrial music creativity. Tim Sean-Lees got a knack for mixing gritty, industrial beats with tight percussion, crafting tracks that catch you up and keep you hooked. ORBITTECH, the title track reflects Tim Sean-Lees signature style. In recent months, after taking a necessary break to focus on his health, he has returned to his passion for music to create three additional tracks that complement this EP. 1. Sonic Traveller (4to4 Vocal Cut) is a taut 4-to-the-floor club weapon that unfolds from a subtle acid bassline and minimal chord stabs. Midway the elements sharpen and broaden harmonically before a patient, relentless build opens the floor. Gritty lead and bass tones from the VirusTiPolar and Korg MS, plus 32 tracks of analogue synths and drum machines, deliver pure underground warehouse energy. 2. Sonic Traveller (Original Cut) rips open the floor with raw Electro grit — dry rolling kicks, grainy synth stabs and a motorik pulse that never quits. Tim Sean‑Lee strips the shine away and letting cold steel grooves do the talking. This ones for late‑night rituals and warehouse edges where the bass hits like a verdict. 3. MotioUnit slams the room with machine-voice fragments — cold, robotic commands that haunt the mix. Melodic, rolling synths weave neon lines over a punchy clap-snare that snaps like concrete. A pumping, dry 909 drives the heartbeat, relentless and unglazed. This is warehouse math: precise, ruthless and built to move bodies until dawn. 4. Orbittech drops like a glitch in the system — twisted IDM with broken-beat chops and cold, metallic percussive sounds. Tim Sean‑Lee sculpts jagged rhythms that stumble and resolve, pulling you into a mechanical dream. Monotone Sound — 16-Bit Beats

Leftfield electro and acid for Lennard Ypmas debut - Ladies Jam - on his own label Volunar Records. SBLS and GH-1S on the A-side make up for a heavy West Coast and electro journey. The remix of GH-1S by Beau Wanzer is also not to be missed, with his signature touch and a nauseating bassline. Flip the record to the B-side for two mind-bending acid cuts; Ladies Jam is a heavily distorted and mechanic track with eerie leads that will drag you through acid punches, while Betonsmeer offers a slowed-down bunker-style cruise with earworming acid and heavy percussion. The 180 grams record comes with an extra artwork by Jorge Velez pressed on elephant grass paper. Tip!

Up next on blank.comms AXIAL 102 - Afterimage. A Detroit-inspired techno LP rooted in deep chords, classic drum machines, and early AI futurism. For fans of Kenny Larkin, B12, Carl Craig.
