DYSTORTION Extrawelts Latest and Longest-Brewing Album Lands This December on Cocoon In this beautiful world marked by rising chaos, sometimes the simplest way to escape its troubles is through sonic relief. Germanys renowned electronic duo Extrawelt will offer exactly that with their 5th full-length album, DYSTORTION, via Cocoon Recordings this December. For over two decades, the humble duo behind Extrawelt, who shy away from making music for clicks, have been a steadfast presence in electronic music. Known as serious studio and tour-focused artists who craft timepiece albums, each a work of enduring craft, that go on to create atmospheric, out-of-the-box live acts, theyve been shaping and redefining electronica since their first release. DYSTORTION is their most diverse and evocative album to date. Imagined over six years and shaped by a world in flux through COVID, political upheavals, social media, and AI, it reflects the contrasts and twists weve all felt while offering surges of serenity and hope. From brooding tension to playful relief, it moves through different states in an evolved Extrawelt manner. The albums opening credit, Grand Départ, as if a cinematic prelude, invites us into a world of creeping bass, an explicitly Extrawelt sound thats synonymous with the anti-genre genre they work within. The albums second track, Clapland, sees Extrawelt joining forces with Jimi Jules, a name synonymous with excellence in electronic music, creating a rare collaboration that is felt in every note. Soon, the mood shifts into softer melodies as heard in Surrounded By Miracles, Hope Sounds Good, and Sir Stringalot, which bring bright euphorics to balance the darker moments in an album echoed by industrial influences. Later, as Dystortion (the albums title track) unfolds, were drawn into something few electronic artists can create: raw emotion. This is a gritty landscape as reflective as it is pulsing, glitchy, intense, and richly textured. DYSTORTION is a reflection of a complex, divided world, carried through dramatically with Extrawelts signature techno tension. Like the world right now, it is full of contradictions, surprises, and moments of introspection, an essential listen for fans of mature electronic music that may or may not need a reminder of why, after 20 years, were still listening.

Every Day Magic News showcases Nyvs evolving sound - synth textures, atmospheric layers, and emotional precision. Each track captures a different shade of everyday magic, transforming simple moments into musical stories. With strong originals and a diverse set of remixes, the EP highlights Tellels collaborative spirit and artistic identity. Sazon – A slow, downtempo electronic journey driven by a pulsing groove and airy synths. In the second half, a dramatic electronic-guitar line emerges, intertwining with the rhythm to create a hypnotic, cinematic experience. Xonku – Slightly faster, blending subtle dub chords with delicate, bird-like melodies. Dreamy synths and a soft late-night atmosphere create a warm, spacious soundscape where melody and rhythm flow together seamlessly. Xonku (Somko Remix) – Transforms the original into a vibrant, danceable 110 BPM groove. Somkos signature approach balances organic and electronic elements, creating a positive, uplifting reinterpretation. Sazon (Altriparty & Hypsidia Remix) – A lively, inventive take on Sazon. Energetic and danceable, with a surprise accordion entry in the second half that elevates the track into something truly unique. Sazon (Im Mady Remix) – Slows the pulse down, offering a deep, groovy reinterpretation. Warm chords, expressive synth bass, and rhythmic interplay with the original percussion add soulful depth to the EPs narrative.
Tellel proudly presents Riders Remixes EP, a vibrant reinterpretation of Kermesse & Turu Anasis originals, delivered by three distinctive artists from across the globe. The original tracks have already made a strong mark, taking the entire Top 3 on the Beatport Downtempo chart, with One Day My Mouth Would Be a Trumpet holding the #1 position for quite some time. Now, these remixes open a new chapter, bringing fresh emotional angles while preserving the essence of the originals. Adrian Schneider reshapes One Day My Mouth Would Be a Trumpet into a calmer, more laid-back experience, keeping the essence of the iconic trumpet while surrounding it with deep, lush textures. Reworked plucks, a modified rhythm, soft pitch-delay details and modulated vocoder - treated leads create a warm and atmospheric space. A new rounded bassline, gentle piano patterns and delicate synth plucks complete this immersive downtempo reimagination. Akira Arasawa brings his Tokyo-driven modular approach to Diaries, crafting a happy and danceable version full of technological house vibes. Using his modular setup - especially the BASTL Softpop, currently his favourite machine - he injects the track with colourful motion, playful rhythms and a modern electronic spirit while keeping the emotional core intact. To Ricciardi takes Riders straight to the dancefloor with a driving, energetic club interpretation. Built on the grooves of a Roland SH-101, rhythmic layers from Diva and movement shaped through ShaperBox, his remix transforms the original into a powerful, forward-pushing ride designed to make bodies move.

A feeling of gentle nostalgia arises, as if discovering an old postcard where words have gradually transformed into melody. Electronic sounds softly envelop the vocals, creating a sense of space filled with warm light. Its a story told in the language of halftones and premonitions, where every beat carries a quiet joy of anticipation

Tzaddi continues the Amesch story. On this page, RIGOONI brings his trademark memorable, minimalist plucks, which sound like flashes of faith and hope. The arrangement is interwoven with whispered vocals, and a melody that lingers in the memory—light and persistent, like birdsong. In soft, enveloping layers, the listener is led, eyes closed, to a state of peace and tranquility. Aguadeiro, the B-side of the RIGOONI project, was born as a call to expand horizons and meanings. In this remix, he reveals his sonic identity anchored in ritualistic and ceremonial energy, where each element pulsates like a chanted sacred name—an act of will that opens space for introspection and a deep connection with the invisible. It is an invitation to dive into a journey that announces itself like the light of the brightest star in the sky, guiding the creative imagination along the paths of the emotional sphere.

The title track comes alive with two exceptional remixes from Max TenRom and Ka:lu, adding extra layers of psychedelic groove and dance‑floor energy.

Your Spell is an alchemical meeting of DÂNTE and Arula — a sonic ritual of masculine and feminine energies in deep interplay. Channeled in a single, intuitive session the original track unfolds like a dream: Arulas hypnotic vocals merge with DÂNTEs enchanted guitar leads weaving a spell of surrender, presence and embodied magic. A soft invocation that moves through the soul. The EP also features three unique remixes that expand its sensual, mystical core. Oiseau de nuit and Im Mady offer slowed-down, groovy and meditative takes deepening the intimate atmosphere, while Dummy Splash adds an airy, experimental dimension lifting the track into ethereal realms. Together, they create a rich, dynamic journey through emotive soundscapes offering listeners multiple pathways into the ritual — from grounded groove to cosmic drift.

After years of DJing, jamming and dreaming together, guacamolebois finally drop their first two tracks on their freshly sprouted label Organic Garden – and theyre doing it right in the heat of their own festival: EPIKUR. What a moment to start. The duo has been around since 2022, blending electronic music with live saxophone, guitar, vocals, percussion and synths. As initiators of both Organic Garden and the EPIKUR Festival, their music is rooted in DIY culture, community and a deep love for collective creation. The track EPIKUR is a glowing tribute to the festival itself – a journey in sound, full of warmth, pulse and wanderlust. A balance of beauty and pressure, just like the festival. In contrast, Nicht schön aber laut hits harder and shouts back with purpose, humour and a good dose of noise. This is just the beginning. Stay curious.
Our first album on Prognosis... Lets hand you straight over to the artist. Hello, Im Carl, also known as Broken Chair, and this is my debut album: The Survivor. While steeped in my signature progressive breaks sound, it also ventures into the diverse landscapes of house, trip hop, and drum & bass. After an incredible first year of releasing music, the time felt right to craft something bigger. So I poured myself into this. The Survivor begins with a melancholic trip hop piece before diving headfirst into some of the most intricate and finest progressive breakbeat Ive ever crafted - well I think so anyway! As the album unfolds, we shift gears with a couple of house cuts and a mid-tempo breaks number, before returning to the breakbeat heartland and culminating in a powerful drum & bass finale. Every synth, every beat, every bass line on this album is a labour of love. Music isnt just a passion; its a profound part of who I am. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found the time and focus to bring this vision to life over the past few years. In the summer of 2022, I faced a massive health challenge. It was a turning point, a moment that could have defined me by its difficulty. Instead, it empowered me to redefine my life for the better. I am a survivor, and this is The Survivor.

Is it Real by Yodh is a musical expression that goes deep and speaks to your emotional body. This track takes its time and builds up slowly. Without any stress or rush, the sounds create a space for dreaming and let your thoughts flow freely. Embraced by warm synths and gentle melodies, the boundaries between reality and fantasy begin to blur. The „Is it Real Remix by Chomba is a driving reinterpretation of the original. The vocal remains one of the main elements, but in this version, the music is more bass-focused. The dreamy vibe is still present, but the energy is more direct and forward-pushing. This remix adds a new dimension without losing the essence of the track. We love it and enjoy every second of Is it Real.

Recognition is one of the oldest Polish record labels releasing electronic music on vinyl. After over 25 years of continuous activity and dozens of records, its time for a recapitulation - and time to honour all the artists associated with the label. Jacek Sienkiewicz, an uncompromising artist and tireless promoter of new sounds, decided to invite almost all producers and musicians who have ever been guests at Recognition to collaborate. Recognition 25 is a musical journey, starting with the club hit Drifting by Jacek Sienkiewicz and ending with the ethereal ambient of Giro Araña. In between, we find a whole palette of colours and shades of modern electronics, from proper club tracks to technologically and compositionally advanced experiments. The first record of the compilation is definitely intended for DJs - tracks tailored for parties are presented by Chino, Jurek Przeździecki, Michał Wolski, the DWA duo, and Etiop. The second record is much more experimental - here Robert Piotrowicz, Porosty, Ostrowski, Jackname Trouble and Sroczyński present their singular visions. Both worlds come together via tracks recorded by Jacek with his friends - Max Loderbauer, AtomTM and Ricardo Villalobos. The compilation clearly shows how diverse, yet creative and original, the artists who have collaborated with Recognition over the past 25 years are. It is also a perfect example of how contemporary electronic music connects, inspires and paves new paths. And when created with heart and passion - it becomes timeless.

A slow, evolving journey that mirrors the gradual transformation of life itself. The Blind Watchmaker is a deep, atmospheric piece that unfolds with delicate precision, revealing layers of emotion and texture. Now with a unique Jaap Ligthart remix.
Having an artist with such artistic projection is a true cultural privilege, a conceptual heritage, where making music to make numbers is definitely far from the creative process of DJ and producer BLANCAh, considered today one of the great references for the new generations of the South American scene. Making an album is something that very few producers have ventured into in a hedonistic and uncertain post-pandemic world, and she presents her third in 10 years under the alter ego BLANCAh. An album requires a certain capacity and depth of sound structure that escapes the minds of those who live by copy and paste, which is why it is something that few propose to create. Music For When The World is Silent is my reunion with the essential force that has always guided me and that had died inside me for a moment. Designing tracks that speak to each other is a creative process that lasts for months, like a web that is built thread by thread until it forms a broad and connected structure. This process requires thinking about elements in an abstract way and applying them to each song to create a unique sound sense. This is what BLANCAh does in her new studio album, where she is partly inspired by feelings of anguish over her own musical evolution, until she finds the freedom to make music for herself, without having to look for references in markets that today seem to live in the past.
After 20 years of releasing music, Jochem Hamerling finally lets go of all rules and boundaries. With Introspection, he delivers his most personal and diverse work to date-a journey through melodic techno, deep house, cinematic breakbeats, and analog-driven soundscapes. From the hypnotic, vocal-led Wake Up to the raw, hardware-crafted Hardware Junction, and the cinematic intensity of In The Darkness, this album explores every corner of Jochems musical universe. Its the sound of an artist who has seen every side of the electronic music scene-both as a DJ and as one of the most influential curators in Dutch dance radio, shaping the scene through leading shows like Radio 538 Dance Department, SLAM! Mixmarathon, and The Boom Room. This freedom is reflected in the overwhelming DJ support, spanning across genres-from Eelke Kleijn and Hernan Cattaneo to Steve Angello and Armin van Buuren. Each track tells its own story, yet together they form a cohesive statement: electronic music without limits.
In 2022, electronic live duo KOAST released a 5-track EP Simple & Divine, inspired by nature and intricate elements of life. The tracks are eclectic, featuring ethereal sounds shaped by Heibert Sarians dynamic vocal range and thoughtfully crafted lyrics, paired with deep rhythms, guitar, and production by Sarkis Mikael. After witnessing a profound connection from listeners around the world, we are honored to present 5 new interpretations of these tracks by artists we deeply admire: Bawab, Desert Dwellers, Dexter Crowe, Hrag Mikkel, and Sydka. Each of them brings their own unique sound to the original compositions, offering fresh perspectives while preserving the spirit of Simple & Divine.
From distant shores and midnight skies, A sound is born where rhythms rise— Ban Lamai, a bold new flame, By Andre P and Vavinchis name. A fusion forged in beats and dreams, Of downtempo waves and pulsing streams, With global echoes, rich and wide, They craft a tale where worlds collide. From Goa sands to Balis air, To desert nights and crowds that stare, Andre Ps path is deeply spun— A journey told through every run. Mastering by Robert Trifunović.
