Das fünfte Studioalbum von Psychic Ills, ,Inner Journey Out", feiert sein zehnjähriges Jubiläum. Ursprünglich erschien es 2016 als erstes Album der Band seit ,One Track Mind" (2013) und gilt als Höhepunkt einer dreijährigen Odyssee des Songwritings, die die Psych-Rock-Landschaft durchquert, die Psychic Ills im Laufe ihrer Karriere geprägt haben, während sie inspirierte Ausflüge in Country, Blues, Gospel und Jazz unternahmen. ,Inner Journey Out" begann so, wie viele Alben von Psychic Ills: mit den Demos von Frontmann Tres Warren. Wie bei allen ihren Alben ist Elizabeth Harts Bass das Bindeglied, das alles zusammenhält. Eine ganze Reihe von Musikern und Sängern - darunter Hope Sandoval von Mazzy Star, die beim Duett der Lead-Single ,I Don't Mind" mitwirkt - begleiten die Band auf dieser Reise. Dies ist zudem das erste Album, auf dem der Tour-Keyboarder Brent Cordero zu hören ist; sein Spiel auf Farfisa und Wurlitzer zieht sich wie ein roter Faden durch das Album. Diese Musiker bilden den Rahmen, auf den Warren seine verträumte Gitarre und seinen Gesang legt. Eine endlose Reihe von Freunden und Gästen beteiligt sich am Geschehen und steuert Pedal-Steel-Gitarre, Blasinstrumente, Streicher und Hintergrundgesang bei, was in einem karriereprägenden Moment für die Ills gipfelt. Thematisch ist ,Inner Journey Out" eine detaillierte Erkundung des Inneren und des Äußeren sowie des Weges zwischen beiden. Das fokussierte Songwriting sorgt dafür, dass sich die stilistischen Abweichungen nahtlos in das vielseitige Ethos der Band einfügen. Die mitreißende Gospel-Psychedelia von ,Another Change" und ,Baby" sowie die abgedrehte Free-Jazz-Erkundung ,Ra Wah Wah" tragen dazu bei, ,Inner Journey Out" zu einem facettenreichen, umfassenden Albumerlebnis zu machen. Abgesehen von dieser Weite ist es auch das persönlichste Album der Psychic Ills, das verlockend auf Liebe und Verlust anspielt, dem Hörer aber keine Auflösung bietet - es stellt Fragen, gibt aber nie Antworten; es sucht, kommt aber nie zu einem endgültigen Schluss. Stell es neben andere ,Drop-out"-Symphonien wie ,Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space" von Spiritualized, ,Pacific Ocean Blue" von Dennis Wilson und ,Born to Be With You" von Dion - und lass deine Reise beginnen.

Transcendental dreamstates and techno synthscapes projecting from 1992 into the future.

Written and recorded shortly before his departure from Psychick Warriors Ov Gaia, Dream Night Dance Music is the visionary first album from Robbert Heijnen under his celebrated alias, Exquisite Corpse. Exploring ritualistic rhythms and organic synth sculpting with a delicacy far beyond most techno released in 1992, the seductive atmospheres and rolling sequences of Dream Night Dance Music reach well beyond pure dancefloor functionality to become an immersive experience for introspection and extroversion alike.

Belgian label KK Records originally released Dream Night Dance Music as a single LP and CD, long-since out of print and highly sought after by the notoriously enthusiastic PWOG / Heijnen fanbase. This expanded reissue on Forever Records spreads the release across two 12"s, adding the track 'What A Life' originally released on the Reassembling Reality single, recorded during the same sessions as Dream Night Dance Music. In addition, the limited vinyl edition comes with a bonus 10" featuring previously unreleased tracks 'Calling' and 'Sure'.

Praise for Dream Night Dance Music:

"The Dream Night Dance Music CD is… electronic opium… The soft, analogue synth sounds and arrangements strongly recall minimal music (Glass/Reich). Music that never ends, constantly winding new loops and coils around the listener's vulnerable inner self." Fritz, Trust Zine, 1992.

"The sound is very trance-like and hypnotic, yet remains highly danceable and never gets boring… It is sure to appeal to night owls, cyberpunx, and neon-light junkies alike." Spex, 1992.

"Heynen strikes a compelling balance between a multitude of rhythms, melodies, and timbres. Permeated by an almost swaying groove, the music reflects influences ranging from the early "minimal music" of composer Steve Reich and the electronic architecture of pioneers Kraftwerk to various non-Western, mystical traditions without ever resorting to mere imitation." Corné Evers, Oor, 1992.

I SPLIT MY ORGAN IN TWOS - a sonic world where animals could speak and parents would never grow old. Music is playing beneath the trees. Creeks are flowing towards the treehouse. Bears are singing and Owls are sailing through the wind like miniature spaceships. Solitude is a chosen path of clarity. And when this world collapses, all memories will vanish. Left behind is the Sting that keeps us separated from the insane.

The debut album I SPLIT MY ORGAN IN TWOS by Munich indie project plainhead is a freak folk inspired rockrecord fusing key aspects of 00s experimental indie with 90s indie rock.
The organic soundscapes remind of yetto-be-refined the Microphones from the album It Was Hot, We Stayed in the Water (2000). Acoustic Guitars fuse with the sound of fuzz and distortion. Clarinets and pianos can be found somewhere buried beneath the noise,
while the vocals remain dry and tired in the front. The 18-track double LP features easy-listenable songs such as the single Ghost / Smoke, short playful instrumentals named after animals and long ever-evolving operas such as River and Sunsick. The album was released on Munich local DIY recording label new basement.

Martini Shot is the new album from Danny Scott Lane-a catchy, nostalgic and slightly manic collection that feels a little like one drink too many. Moving between lounge, soul, indie pop and exotica, the record plays more like a mixtape than a single idea, with a distinctly '90s streak running through it.

Lane sings on seven of the album's ten songs, a departure from his largely instrumental past work, and plays drums and percussion for the first time alongside his usual synths, keyboards, guitar and bass. Longtime collaborator David Lackner contributes flute, joined by new collaborators Logan Hone on flute and Katie Jacoby on violin.

Martini Shot marks Lane's second release with Records We Release, following the well-received House of Alice. The result is loose, romantic, restless and a little unpredictable.

London-based Frankfurt export Claus Fuss brings his vibrant creativity to Rant & Rave with the Läuft! EP. Claus’ output includes a whole bunch of solo productions and collaborative projects with OneOneOne and LANDER, as well as co-productions with UK legends such as Zed Bias, Emerald a.o. His analogue-produced cuts have been signed to labels such as Khemia, Crème Organization, Neighbourhood, Heras and Kaizen. With his arrival on Rant & Rave, Claus drops four scintillating examples of rough and ready techno, including a collab with label head MAEDON. The EP kicks off with the title track ‘Läuft!’ (Running! in English), a mesmerising cut with a repetitive vocal snippet that forms part of the main riff. The beats are exquisitely programmed, and Claus keeps that track progressing, shifting and evolving masterfully.

Subtle layers add depth, while the main thrust of ‘Läuft!’ remains potent and captivating throughout. Next up is ‘Schwarze Löcher’ (Black Holes). As the title suggests, this one is dark and deep, sucking you into the sonic void. Elastic kick drums propel this one forward, as a rhythmically peppered, resonance shifting riff rises and falls. Claus gradually ramps up the intensity until we reach a breakdown, where that riff really works its magic. When the drums are reintroduced, it’s a powerful moment. Then we have ‘TopUp’, a lively, upbeat cut with contagious energy. Claus hooks the listener with an irresistible rhythmic structure, the bassline is especially addictive. Fast paced, dynamic drum programming keeps this one moving at a frenetic pace. On the surface it’s deceptively simple, but attentive listeners will pick up on all the details that make this one a compelling listening (and dancing) experience. Finally, we have ‘Zwanzig’ (Twenty), a heady collaboration with Rant & Rave boss MAEDON. This one brings together MAEDON’s earworm melodies and Claus’ penchant for hypnotic grooves. An insistent groove gives this cut a feel of urgency, while a relentless riff and punchy beats aim squarely at mind and body. A masterclass in dance floor engagement and connection.

Key Records returns with a four-track various artists release, bringing together four different vibes that sit naturally alongside each other, while each artist puts their own stamp on the record.

Julian Anthony opens with the spacious and driving “Stargazing”, followed by Wilba’s darker and more stripped back “Head Noise”. On the flip, Darren Roach brings a strong old school feel with “Putting Things In Perspective”, before Reflex Blue closes the record with the playful, after hours sound of “Question”.

First ever reissue of the highly sought after '91 EP from TYREE COOPER & DJ PENG. 4 tracks of raw purpose built Chicago warehouse grit and grime that manage to sound just as vital 35 years later as they did on release. All-killer-no-filler. Don't sleep, will go fast.

On En Route, Oddisee captures the tension of motion—between where you’re from and where you’re headed, between ambition and grounding, between survival and purpose. Released at a moment when his voice was sharpening into something unmistakably his own, En Route feels like a checkpoint record: reflective, hungry, and deeply human.

Built on warm, head-nodding production and Oddisee’s signature blend of jazz-inflected beats and conversational clarity, the album balances internal dialogue with outward observation. He raps not as a distant narrator but as someone in the thick of it—touring, questioning, recalibrating—turning everyday moments into quiet revelations. Themes of independence, self-definition, and forward momentum run through the record without ever tipping into cliché; this is movement with intention, not escape.

What makes En Route endure is its honesty. There’s no forced grandeur here, just earned confidence and craft. Oddisee treats growth as a process rather than a destination, letting listeners ride alongside him as the miles stack up. The result is an album that feels lived-in and timeless—music for long drives, late nights, and anyone figuring out who they are while still on the way.

Globally acclaimed duo Bedouin return with a powerful new collaboration alongside rising producer Luch and vocalist Karl Williams on 'The Only One.'

A brooding, late-night club cut, the track is driven by hypnotic drum rhythms, pulsing percussion, and dark, immersive synth work, while Karl Williams' emotive vocal delivery adds depth and allure, unfolding with tension and atmosphere.

Tracklisting:

SFS World proudly presents Cytissorus, the debut solo album by SIL and also the first release from SFS World. Across eight tracks-Atlanta, Seine, False Promises, Osina, Purism, XL, Gerta, and Hader-the album explores immersive breakbeats woven with ambient textures, balancing rhythm, space, and emotion.
Rather than following typical club structures, Cytissorus unfolds as a continuous listening experience. Each track opens a different landscape, shifting fluidly between moments of tension and stillness, while maintaining a distinct sonic identity.
With Cytissorus, SIL delivers a deeply personal work-an intimate, cinematic journey that marks the start of his solo artistic voice and our label, SFS World.

The artist behind the absolutely massive "WHERE WOULD YOU BE" (popularized by MOODYMANN) teams up with VICK LAVENDER & JUSTIN DILLARD for a hauntingly beautiful, hypnotic, and sophisticated Afro-Latin tinged cover of a STING deep cut. Very cool pic sleeve by artist ANTHONY BARTLEY

Im Herbst 2007 veröffentlichte ein 26-jähriger Produzent aus Köln namens Daso Franke seine 12"-Single auf dem Label ,Spectral Sound" von Ghostly. Auf der A-Seite befand sich ,Meine", ein euphorischer, achtminütiger Höhenflug, der die Tanzflächen weltweit begeisterte. Seitdem ist die Single zu einem regelrechten Klassiker geworden. Anfang dieses Jahres bezeichnete Resident Advisor ,Meine" als einen der besten Songs des Jahrhunderts bis jetzt. Im April 2018 verstarb Franke nach einem langen Kampf gegen den Krebs. Mit der Unterstützung seiner Familie und auf Wunsch der Fans machen wir die ,Meine Idee"-EP wieder verfügbar - in Erinnerung an Dasos musikalisches Vermächtnis. Resident Advisor fährt fort: ,Der Song ist unglaublich positiv, was erklärt, warum er jahrelang ein Favorit in der Panorama Bar war. In den letzten Augenblicken seines Lebens spielten Dasos Freunde ,Meine` über eine Stereoanlage in der Ecke seines Krankenhauszimmers. Es war die einzige Möglichkeit." Daso besaß eine einzigartige Gabe für anmutige Melodien, und die EP ,Meine Idee" fängt einen Moment ein, in dem diese brillant zur Geltung kam. Seine Musik wird weiterleben.

Belgian label De:tuned celebrates its 60th release and 17 years of existence with a majestic 2-track EP, Infinion Regress, by Dopplereffekt.

Drawing on more than three decades of experimentation and sonic exploration, Dopplereffekt continues to evolve its unique signature. Non-rhythmic in nature, Infinion Regress delves into the atmospheric depths of sound, enhanced by the angelic presence of the human voice. A cinematic journey into an immersive world, uniquely crafted by Dopplereffekt.

Kevin Foakes (Openmind, DJ Food, Ninja Tune) created the artwork, with mastering by Mike Grinser at Manmade Mastering. Available on 180g vinyl, with a separate digital release through all the usual platforms.

ETRX001 - Tension marks the first release on Enigma Trax, a new label founded by Rotterdam-based producer Enigma Trax.

The EP brings together four tracks that explore different sides of his sound, from deep, hypnotic grooves to more driving and energetic techno. Emotional chords and atmospheric textures are present throughout, giving each track its own character, with some leaning towards a darker, more melancholic atmosphere.

All four tracks were recorded as live jams, keeping the raw energy, natural flow and unexpected moments that come with this way of producing.

The release is a personal project from start to finish, with both the music and original artwork created by Enigma Trax.

After the well-received digital release of "Blur Archive" on Radial Records in 2025, James Begley returns to the label with his first EP on vinyl. A release that brings a long-hidden body of work into sharper focus.

A Dublin-based producer and DJ with 18 years of experience, Begley is no newcomer. Until recently, his music remained a private pursuit, shaped over years of experimentation, refinement, and reconstruction, away from the demands of visibility. "Blur Archive" was his first step out of the shadows. Since then, a track has also appeared on a Mord compilation, quietly establishing his presence within the underground.

Rooted in techno's raw foundations and the late-2000s resurgence, Begley's sound draws on the uncompromising lineage of artists like Surgeon, Regis, Steve Rachmad, Cari Lekebusch, and Jeroen Liebregts, while remaining distinctly his own. Tightly wound rhythms, shifting structures, and a sense of controlled disintegration define music that moves between mechanical hypnosis and emotional fracture. Nothing is overstated; every element serves a purpose.

This EP marks more than a first vinyl outing. It gives physical form to a practice that has spent years developing outside the frame: music built for depth, detail, and the full attention that a record demands.

For Radial Records, it also marks a return to vinyl after a hiatus. No better place to resume: a release by an artist who has taken his time, arrived fully formed, and has plenty left to reveal.

Ghost Funk Orchestra (GFO) kehren mit ,Yours in The Ranks of Death", ihrer bisher bodenständigsten und persönlichsten Sammlung von Songs, in unseren Orbit zurück. Nachdenklich und ätherisch - auf dem fünften Album von Ghost Funk Orchestra reduziert Komponist und Mastermind Seth Applebaum die Klänge und konzeptionellen Grundlagen und schafft so für seine typischen Grooves einen klareren Rahmen, in dem sie über den Plattenteller gleiten können. Wie die Strahlen der Sommersonne, die den Morgennebel langsam auflösen, treten nun die Konturen und kristallklaren Figuren deutlicher hervor, die Ghost Funk Orchestra seit ihrem Beitritt zum Label im Jahr 2018 zum groovigen, modernen psychedelischen Soul-Jazz-Boogaloo-Rückgrat von Karma Chief Records gemacht haben. Eine treibende, poetische und funkige Form der Selbstreflexion.

QZB follow up their landmark debut LP with 'Dreams To Dust' and this sophomore effort finds the duo positively peaking. Where 'Future Forever' established the framework, Dreams To Dust pushes it to breaking point: Acidic and grandiose, the serum visions implode and give way to the kind of controlled execution only these low-end specialists can deliver. Behind that precision lies a deeply personal record, one presenting all synthesised input with complete clarity. Delving deep into the dynamics unfolding within a musical kinship spanning over a decade.

Musically, Dreams To Dust's sonic palette further strengthens QZB's case as some of the most versatile forces in the field. They wear their influences on their sleeves, channeling Grime, IDM, Acid House, Garage, and Hip Hop to push their sound into ever more focused forms, while sticking to their calling card: Concise, efficient and effective beat science. Guest vocals from old friends and new faces reflect the collaborative spirit proven by its results.

One year on from its launch, Regal's Backspin reaches its 11th release, marking a year of steady growth for the label and an equally prolific period in his own output. Following 'Forgotten Heroes' earlier in 2026, Regal returns with his second Backspin release this year. Across five originals and a remix by Berlin duo Disguised, he explores a more groove-driven side of his sound, bringing together unconventional synth design and entrancing melodies with the ferocious club energy that has become central to it.

The A-side opens with 'Red Dress', immediately establishing the EP's unique presence through a menacing synth that commands attention. An addictive horn-like motif repeats throughout, seemingly resonating through a vast, tunnel-like space, while a roaring low end and subtle tom groove keep the track moving. 'Leviathan' follows with crunchy, drum-like synth and a drifting tone that gradually build tension, giving the track an imposing aura fitting its title. A strong kick and restrained percussion leave room for its atmosphere to unfold. Closing the side, 'Midnight Rider' puts a highregister melody at the centre, its warped and uncanny quality giving the track an irresistible character. A rolling bassline drives things along while minimal percussion lets the melody lead, sending the A-side out on a final rush of energy. The B-side begins with 'Claut', where reverberating and dissonant synth lines introduce a more mysterious mood. A solid low end keeps the track grounded, while sparse percussion, echoing chord hits and carefully placed effects build an unpredictable groove. 'Just One Chance' centers on a repeating sine tone whose captivating pull carries the track, locking in alongside a strong kick, rumbling sub and rolling tom groove. An unexpected vocal introduces a message of love, lending an uplifting flavor before becoming another rhythmic and textural element. The EP closes with Disguised's interpretation of 'Red Dress'. The Berlin duo strip the original back into a more loop-driven form, reducing its melody to selected fragments that surface as scattered percussive details. A chugging synth takes centre stage, driven by a striking kick and deep sub, while spoken vocal fragments and stray effects keep the arrangement in constant motion and retain the original's intensity.

Designed with the colder months and club environments in mind, the EP balances atmospheric textures and unusual sound design with a more rolling energy. The drums keep everything rooted in club music, letting Regal explore more adventurous territory without losing sight of thedancefloor and marking another milestone for him and Backspin.

Reissue of the classic, Joey Beltram's Aonox LP.

The highly acclaimed U.K post- punk band Joy Division was originally called Warsaw . Formed in Manchester, England in the late 1970s, the group consisted of Ian Curtis on vocals, Bernard Albrecht (aka Sumner, aka Dicken) on guitar, Peter Hook on bass and Stephen Morris on drums. Hook, Albrecht and Curtis hooked up at a local concert and later formed the group Warsaw. The band's name was taken from a David Bowie- Brian Eno composition, "Warszawa". The 5 bonus tracks on this album are demos cut by the group at Pennine Studios in Manchester on July 18, 1977 with Steve Brotherdale on drums. The first eleven tracks presented here were the result of a recording session for that album that took place in early May of 1978. Rehearsals leading up to the session resulted in two new songs being added to the group's existing repertoire: "Interzone" and "Transmission." "Interzone" was based on the backing track of the song "Keep On Keepin' On," to which the band added their own lyrics. The result was a song distinctively their own. "Transmission" was written by the band during the final week of rehearsals. The first verse contains a quotation from Alistair Crowley's The Book Of Thoth. The two recordings are interesting renditions of songs which would later became famous.

In their countless years of deep digging, Dark Entries has uncovered many curiosities, oddball Italo and synth-wave creatures too rare to live, too funky to die. Dark Entries’s conservationist efforts began with 2020’s Endangered Species Vol 1. Six years later, we are finally treated Endangered Species Vol 2, an even more ambitious effort which features eleven specimens previously deemed extinct, now safely preserved on vinyl. Things kick off with an extended mix of Palazzo di Danza’s “Play That Song For Me,” a lavishly produced German-Italo number propelled by a slinky bassline. Russian Olga Vosconyan’s “Cars” delivers what might be the moodiest song ever produced for a car commercial.

Fuzz Dance maestro Alexander Robotnick appears with a previously unreleased male vocal demo version of “I Wanna Believe,” a legendary track that would later appear under the name Gina & the Flexix. Canadian industrial royalty Dwayne R. Goettel (Psyche) and cEvin Key (Skinny Puppy) team up on the horror-sampling hit-heavy blaster “Bastards.” Belgian EBM progenitors à;GRUMH... report for duty with a slab of machine funk on “The Army.” UK DIY stalwarts Khmer Rouge bring Krautrock-inflected minimalism with “Take Me (Across the Floor Tonight) In Dub.” Endangered Species Vol 2 comes housed in a sleeve designed by Eloise Shir-Juen Leigh, and includes a 16 page booklet featuring liner notes, lyrics, and photographs of each featured project. Please assist Dark Entries in their efforts to preserve the rarest of beasts (and beats).

Kerri Chandler begins a brand-new chapter with the launch of his self-titled label, Kerri Chandler, and its debut release; the Downtown EP Pt. 1.

For long-time followers and new listeners alike, Downtown EP Pt. 1 captures everything Kerri Chandler represents, soulful, honest, and made with nothing but heart.

raum…musik welcomes Jaffa Surfa back for its 121st release with ‘Tribal Diesel EP’, a four-tracker moving through progressive techno, industrial-tinged minimal, house and broken beat. Rather than treating these as fixed genres, Surfa reshapes them into something uncanny and unmistakably tribal, while keeping the groove firmly at the centre.

That approach is clearest on the A-side. “Diggers Diesel” has a ritual pull and, as the EP’s title suggests, finds Jaffa Surfa at his most tribal. Processed drums and splintered voices gradually lock into a hook while murky synths shift beneath them. “Lidl Sin” takes a leaner, slightly industrial but definitely understated route. Its reduced arrangement leaves enough room for each detail to register, with drums, synth stabs and sequenced lines appearing to exist in a state of constant mutation. On the b-side, “NGLZ” is the EP’s most direct house cut, driven by heavy low end, syncopated rhythms and flashes of phased samples. Breakbeat accents and old-school vocal fragments nod towards US house, though the track’s restless movement keeps it from settling into anything conventional. “Upstarz Galeri” closes on a wider screen, carrying traces of krautrock and decades-old sci-fi and cyberpunk soundtracks without ever feeling nostalgic. Airy and expansive, it pairs breakbeats and growling basslines with densely layered samples, giving its machine funk an unexpectedly emotional charge.

'Tribal Diesel EP' never overstates the contrast between its parts. Jaffa Surfa holds everything together through texture, rhythm and an almost cybernetic atmosphere. It is clearly built for the club, but carries enough personality and ambiguity to reward closer listening.

„Song of Songs“ ist die zweite Sammlung von Hard-Bop-Avantgarde-Kompositionen des legendären Trompeters
Woody Shaw auf dem Label Contemporary, produziert von Lester und John Koenig. Mit einer hochkarätigen Besetzung, darunter Benny Maupin, George Cables und Henry Franklin, bringt diese Neuauflage von
Jazz Dispensary Top Shelf das Album nach fünf Jahrzehnten wieder auf Vinyl – geschnitten von Kevin
Gray direkt von den originalen analogen Bändern (AAA), gepresst auf 180-Gramm-Vinyl bei Fidelity Record
Pressing, in einer Gatefold-Tip-On-Hülle.

Ever since the release of his first solo album more than 20 years ago, German musician and producer Christian Kleine has experimented with blending and contrasting the varying textures and approaches of post-rave IDM, breakbeats, shoegaze and punk. His latest album offering, Touch & Fuse, shows he's continued to refine and perfect that combination, which is less a conscious concoction and more of a natural outcome of the music he likes. From the edgy Aphex-isms of 'Val 2' and the heavily filtered breaks of 'Reverse Angle' to the slowed down grunge meets pure electronics of 'Return of the Underground', this is unique, accomplished stuff.

On Board Music returns for its sixth installment of the Various Artists EP series, but this time with a different approach. Five fresh remixes breathe new life into Point C, originally released in 2021 and consisting of tracks from Foreign Material, Hironori Takahashi, Hiver, Sylve and Alan Backdrop.

For the 2024 update, On Board enlists five of the finest deep techno practitioners to twist the originals into bold new forms. US artist Patrick Russell dives deep into his signature, tripped-out zone, with dub and half-time sensibilities grounding the remix in an eyes-down headspace. Estrato Aurora, who remixes Hiver’s cut, goes equally subterranean, perfectly setting up the nimble drumming and bright melodies of Polygonia’s contribution.

For 13 years of porn, fun and games, Berlin-based event series and label Pornceptual presents a nine-track VA on double vinyl, bringing together artists from across the international queer scene. Each contribution leaves a distinct and uncompromising fingerprint in the grooves. This marks the third release in the PRNCPTL VA series. This is music made for the dancefloor, for the dolls, for the lovers, for the freaks and the queens.

P.E.A.R.L. returns to Falling Ethics with a focused four-track EP built around hypnotic repetition, detailed textures and driving groove. Exploring deeper and more atmospheric territories while maintaining a strong dancefloor sensibility, the record showcases his refined approach to contemporary techno. A cohesive addition to the catalogue and another statement from the label's founder.
