Weltschmerz
For its 6th release, Berlin-based Klangkuenstler returns to his Outworld imprint with the Weltschmerz EP – an ode to a world in turmoil, prophesying that there's light at the end of a pitch-black tunnel. For there's a fire of passion burning brightly within the depth of these two monstrous new tracks. Make no mistake, this is brutal, floor-shaking techno, yet, despite the sheer force, Klangkuenstler captures the emotional essence of our Zeitgeist, shape-shifting moods between raging anger, deep-blue melancholia and glimpses of hope. The EP's title-track 'Weltschmerz' kicks off mercilessly at the light-speed-tempo Klangkuenstler has become synonymous with. As a muscular kick thuds below slashing hats and rust-covered atmospherics, a venomous lead snakes through this airtight framework, unfolding into a moment of unadulterated ecstasy. 'Untergang', meanwhile, bursts of pure energy in tired times, thundering violently towards a bittersweet peak of warehouse-sized euphoria. To put it in a nutshell: Klangkuenstler rings in the end and we're going out with a bang. Though cooked-up for carnage, it's Klangkuenslter's intuition for existentialist contrasts that let the Weltschmerz EP transcend its design purpose to grow into something altogether bigger – touching body, mind and soul alike. The outside world may have ground to halt, but Outworld continues to move.

Schranzers Vol.3
The Schranzers series returns with its third and most explosive chapter yet. Schranzers Vol.3 captures the raw energy and hypnotic drive that define the new wave of underground hard techno. From distorted industrial grooves to metallic synth lines and relentless percussion, each track embodies the essence of modern Schranz — fast, dirty, and unapologetically powerful. TMBR & CLC deliver a venomous opener with Poison Ivy, Coyote Paul takes the listener on a dark trip with Trip to Rotterdam, and SPRY closes the release with the acidic madness of Signal Lost, blending relentless rhythm and squelching 303 energy into pure chaos. Curated by Schranz Movement, this compilation stands as a testament to the unstoppable evolution of the genre and to the new generation of producers carrying its legacy forward. Welcome to the sound of the underground. Welcome to Schranzers Vol.3. Distributed by Pressology - www.pressology.net

Schranzers Vol.2
Schranzers Vol.2 pushes the boundaries even further — three tracks forged in pure industrial chaos. From the brutal precision of Lex Digital – Rush, to the relentless pressure of JGMZ – Kick The Bass, and the mechanical destruction of COIL – Buzzard, this chapter is not for the faint-hearted. Each artist delivers a different shade of violence, but all share the same purpose: to make the floor tremble. This is modern Schranz at its rawest form — no compromise, no melody, only pure power.

Heel Thyself
SPFDJ steps up for her long-awaited debut EP, Heel Thyself, out Friday 7th November on Intrepid Skin. A core figure in grassroots techno circuits, and an internationally lauded DJ, SPFDJs ascent reflects a passion for music governed by love and grit in equal measure. At once providing a gleefully chaotic two-fingers to dance musics self-serious establishment, whilst also flexing an ever-expanding knowledge of its roots and potentials, her musical armoury is renowned the world over for inspiring debauchery and sweat-soaked hedonism. As an artist whose journey has been defined by challenging the norms of electronic music, SPFDJs rebel spirit is recognised locally and globally, but guiding this attitude is a vulnerability to the realities of the music industry, and the rise of conservatism that permeates every aspect of life. And whilst sensitive to the use of buzzwords like community, its ultimately a respect for the people who keep these scenes alive that motivates her artistry. In releasing this EP, she taps into a more vulnerable side. The title - a nod to internal healing processes, and a play on words to motivate queers and women to boot up for battle against increasingly oppressive structures - shines a light on some of the values she holds up to electronic music culture. At once playfully chaotic and deeply energising, Heel Thyself spins us through a cyclone of kicks, punches, and noise. Opener Cluster B Intro is a tempo-twisting barrage of gabber led by a robotic vocal command, setting the scene for pretty much anything to happen. That Stiletto Track kicks in like a tweaked out distortion of 90s trance before spiralling upwards into a storm of heavy breaks. F*ckboi is hot n heavy electro - classic in its structure, but with the added industrial touch of hammerdrill synths and razor sharp percussion. Swinging into a bouncier state, The Hot in Psychotic flings ricocheting rhythms through frantic claps, with a donk to keep things moving. Rounding things off, Mindless Counting flies higher with pummeling drums lifted by a touch of euphoria. A debut laced with both defiance and self-reckoning, Heel Thyself finds the rebel looking inwards - vulnerable, but sharpened and ready.
