Sway Techno (Raw / Deep / Hypnotic)

MindTrip proudly celebrates its 100th release with Zeta, the sixth studio collaboration between label founder Pfirter and German artist Oliver Rosemann. Marking a new milestone in the labels journey, Zeta continues the exploration through the Greek alphabet with four powerful and finely detailed pieces that merge direct rhythmic energy with a synthesis that looks both to the past and the future of Techno. Each track unfolds with precision and purpose, revealing hypnotic layers and evolving tension — a clear reflection of the duos shared vision: intense, focused, and deeply immersive. This is MindTrip! - Cover image of the Rosette Nebula in HOO by Pfirter. The Rosette Nebula is a large, star-forming region located about 4,500 light-years away in the constellation Monoceros. This nebula is a stunning example of an emission nebula, where intense radiation from young, hot stars causes the surrounding gas to glow. The Hubble Palette, using Ha, OIII, and SII filters, brings out the intricate details of this cosmic cloud, showcasing its vibrant colors and complex structure.-

Blistering, adrenaline-charged Techno EP from the minimal master. Robert Hoods minimalist approach helped define Technos evolution in the early 1990s, as hes continued to push a stripped-down, hypnotic sound. His solo work, marked by precise drum programming and deep grooves, has become hugely influential across modern Techno. While he continues to innovate through projects like Floorplan (with daughter, Lyric) here he returns to his roots on the Soul Sonic Force EP. From A-side opener Insurrection that blends a tough peak-time Techno sound with sweeping strings, to the reverberating tonal Black Ops. Then flip to the AA-side for the relentless pared down groove of Soul Protector, before Warfare with its layered precision. This is classic Hood in action; unparalleled.

Axis Records Techno (Raw / Deep / Hypnotic)

Remixes by Blazej Malinowski, Claudio PRC, RCHTR & Invalid Request and a revisit by Re:Axis himself. As the Derailed Records x Planet Rhythm vinyl saga continues, a new force materializes: the remix EP of Re:Axiss Ancient Ways. Reverent yet fearless, it transforms the original into something darker, deeper, and undeniably compelling. Wrapped in a soft silver glow, this vinyl edition mirrors the legacy of its marbled-gold predecessor. The contrast is intentional, the pairing essential. Dont miss the chance to complete the set.
