#4 Feat. Hype in Melodic House & Techno

Ritter Butzke Records proudly presents Bullet, a high-impact club weapon from Hamburg-based electronic pioneers Moonbootica. Renowned for their unmistakable groove language, technical finesse and decades of dancefloor experience, the duo continues to shape powerful, functional club music with refined precision and an instinctive understanding of crowd dynamics. Driven by a tight, muscular low-end and razor-sharp percussion, Bullet locks into a relentless forward motion from the very first bar. The groove is stripped back yet highly effective, leaving maximum space for energy to build and translate directly onto the dancefloor. Carefully placed synth stabs and subtle tension layers inject constant movement and pressure, while evolving textures keep the arrangement alive without ever losing its focused minimalism. Rather than relying on obvious hooks or oversized breakdowns, the track thrives on controlled restraint and hypnotic repetition. Its strength lies in its steady propulsion and physical impact, allowing DJs to seamlessly blend it into peak-time narratives and extended late-night journeys. The dynamic flow remains tight and purposeful, making Bullet a reliable tool for maintaining momentum on big systems and crowded floors alike. With this release, Moonbootica once again demonstrate their ability to balance raw club functionality with refined sonic craftsmanship. Bullet is built for uncompromising drive, immersive energy and long-lasting dancefloor tension - a confident statement from two artists who continue to evolve while staying true to their roots.

#31 Feat. Staff Picks in Techno (Peak Time / Driving)

Ritter Butzke Records proudly presents Bodies Interlace - a striking three-track EP from German producer Carbon, known for his meticulous sound design and deeply driving melodic techno. With over two decades of production experience behind him, Carbon delivers an EP that fuses precision, atmosphere, and pure kinetic force. The title track Bodies Interlace opens the release with a firm, hypnotic grip. Pulsing low-end pressure, shifting melodic fragments, and Carbons signature tension-building structures merge into a track that feels both expansive and intimate. Its a slow-burn ascent, unfolding through evolving layers that lock the floor into a steady, immersive flow. Pump It Up follows with a more immediate, rhythm-forward intensity. Focused on punch, momentum, and club-driven dynamics, the track pushes Carbons heavier side to the forefront. Its tight percussive framework and propulsive bassline create a raw, energetic thrust - a weapon built for peak-time moments. Closing the EP, Andreas Henneberg delivers his interpretation of Bodies Interlace - transforming the original into a crisp, rolling machine. Henneberg amplifies the groove, sharpening the rhythmic architecture while preserving the emotional undertones of Carbons core idea. The result is a remix that feels both respectful and revitalizing. Bodies Interlace EP stands as a refined snapshot of the modern melodic-techno landscape: tense, detailed, and irresistibly forward-moving - a testament to Ritter Butzke Records continued commitment to depth, drive, and high-quality electronic music. Beatport Presale begins December 12, 2025, featuring the early drop of Pump It Up. Full Streaming & Beatport Release lands on December 26, 2025, with all stores following on January 9, 2026.
