Vinyl only. New Continue Records emerge from the mists of the unknown with an EP wrapped in sorcery and stardust by the not so new Romanian producer Stoi. Insular EP represents travel through a portal between underworld and overworld with one extended track on each side. A-side packs a haunting 4x4 journey. B-side with a darker hypnotic stepper.

"Acropolis EP" is the first vinyl release of 24/H, an independent record label based at Tempio Del Futuro Perduto (the Temple Of The Lost Future), a relatively new cultural space & club in Milan.

The label was founded by Alessandro Vaccari (aka Marthial), young Italian artist and DJ resident of the Temple, with the aim to invite emerging and renowned artists to reside within its studio and dormitory spaces and craft a release within 24 hours of time.
In this release, Stanislav Tolkachev showcases his well-known personal attitude and dark production style which let him earn the reputation of techno genius. The Temple hosted Stanislav Tolkachev’ artist residence for eleven days, in order to contribute to the label's mission. After selecting the equipment and making some changes to the studio, the artist began his 24-hours journey.

Tolkachev created a complex, well-defined two-tracks pack that result in powerful, destabilizing and impressive narrative, following a non-existing musical path and memories of his past. The release also features a remix by Marthial himself, who reinterpreted Stanislav’s work according to his own style.

24H project was also born as a stimulus for any producer living the spaces of the Temple, as a challenge to bring out the production skills within a certain amount of time and by using specific machines, deprived of the comfort of his own studio.

Through this idea, 24/H creates a union between all the artists who took part in the challenge, each one expressing their own stories and musical interpretation of the label concept. The goal
of the label is also, therefore, to test each artist on equal terms, and thus increasing creativity.

2022 Repress

Trip Recordings follows the huge success of its first three releases with a third double-vinyl album, once more curated by label owner Nina Kraviz and featuring gatefold artwork by in-house artist Tombo. The release draws on contributions from established Trip members Kraviz, Population One and Nikita Zabelin, in addition to new artists added to its expending roster including K-Hand, Philipp Gorbachev, Vladimir Dubyshkin and Roma Zuckerman.As established with the label's first three releases, TRP004 will function as a soundtrack to a scenario and its accompanying artwork from Kraviz and Tombo. The title 'Ivan, Come On! Unlock The Box!' (, ! !) is inspired by the track contributed by Philipp Gorbachev (Comeme/PG Tunes), from which Kraviz has extrapolated a story of a rule-defying Russian maverick who is 'searching for the key to the future'.Set for release in mid-November, TRP004's two twelve-inches orbit around a nucleus of talent drawn from label boss Nina Kraviz's homeland of Russia. In addition to 'I Believe I Can Fly (KLM Delayed Flight Version) - one of her own 'road tracks' produced during the producer's hectic global touring schedule - Kraviz has enlisted a quartet of her countrymen for this latest collection. Philipp Gorbachev contributes his most uncompromisingly techno track yet, while Moscow's Nikita Zabelin follows his label debut on TRP003 ('De Niro Is Concerned') with the sinister minimalism of 'Bells'. In addition, TRP003 marks the label debuts of Vladimir Dubyshkin and Roma Zuckerman, both of whom were recommended to Kraviz by Zabelin. The former - a true outsider, just 17 years of age and based in the remote Russian town of Tambov - follows an early 2015 LP for SUB-AMP Records with the disorienting off-kilter techno of 'Lose Yourself', while the latter marks his first ever release despite years of producing with the unsettling 'Geburt Part 2'.

Completing TRP004 are two defiantly individual international artists: K-HAND makes her Trip debut following a two-decade career that's seen her become on of Detroit's true underground, and relatively unsung, heroes. Her contribution, 'The Box', finds her clipping effortlessly within Trip's aesthetic, with a heady textured acid potboiler. Two more Barcode Population tracks, excavated from a mine of undiscovered Nineties-made rarities, complete the release with furiously paced techno rollers which will remain strictly vinyl-only.

A new great INMO007 comes from MoMA, including fantastic remixes by Andrea Ferlin & Anton Kubikov.

For Tresydos’ third release, the Greek duo BODJ and Roksi debut their new, hardware only, live project Adult Sonics with "Hands in Motion" EP, featuring two of their freshest tracks to date plus a tasty remix from Vagara. The A side starts with “Ambedo”, a house track with minimal features and jazzy elements, a track you can listen to at any time of the party. A2, “Slow” is the perfect morning track, a nice combination of breaky beats, shuffled drums and dreamy pads. On the B side, Vagara takes over with his “Magic Morning Mix” of Ambedo, giving the track a more energetic take, bringing in acidic tones, stronger percussions, and new vocals.

Hör Gut Zu (Listen Up!) - stands for minimal and ambient techno and convinces with clear influences of the old school.

Reduced to the essence, René Reinert and his sound are considered a real insider tip among connoisseurs

For the third release they nabbed Red Pig Flower, the Berlin based Korean artist and Sound of Vast boss!
The record have 2 original microhouse, hypnotic tracks with solid remixes by french legend Alexkid and Moroccan growing talent Monile!

After a process of realignment with himself and his music and eleven prolific years of production filled with remarkable releases, a change needed to happen .
Formerly known as Robert S (PT) ,portuguese techno artist returns as Robert Hoff. This time to stay, signaling an transition in the work of the young talented producer .
On this release Hoff delivers three finely cut techno tools and joining in ,Stanislav Tolkachev with a robust remix of Cytoskeleton.

The release opens with “Anhihilation”, a moment of reflection. Darkness and hope combining,
Shifting layers of noise carefully designed to begin the journey.

Cytoskeleton is a raw,highly hypnotic peak time techno weapon .
Guaranteed to bring energy to the dance floor with it’s rolling percussions and bass.
Well supplied with a guttural synth and an amazing sound design ,unfolds into a powerful combination to show clearly Hoff’s intentions.

If playing with sounds and turning them into pure energy seems to be a must for Hoff, in “Multicellularity “ this is quite noticeable. The tension build up rewarded with the incisive sound structure and a ceaseless rhythm.
Dark ,mesmerizing, taking us for an unforgettable trip .

Stanislav Tolkachev version of “Cytoskeleton“ introduces us to this Ukrainian artist unique approach. With his futuristic and experimental sound signature that quickly has become Tolkachev’s trademark, “ Cytoskeleton “ is transformed in a tense ,distorted world of textures.

Alan Castro delves deeper in to his ‘Vizcacha’ alias with a two track EP for Raconteur’s 2nd release.


The vizcacha is an animal rodent with nocturnal habits, typical of the Argentine plains, with extensive nocturnal outings that depart from dusk until the next morning. Living in the shadows, where they can only escape at night, a lonely life dodging hunters.


More love for animals, more attention on real people.
My madness, my identity…..Im happy.

Originally from Tunisia, Anamorph is one of those great explorers who travel the world in search of new influences, finding inspiration in Romania after a few years of living in Bucharest, he presents Fapte with 2 original tracks to match the identity of the label:

Side A of this white vinyl consists of one original mix - Sub Constienta - with an uplifting baseline, with industrial background textures complete with mesmerizing synths that make your body vibrate to the groove.

On Side B, Swing Altfel is a track that tells the story differently, taking the listener on a long journey thru the sound. Just like the exquisite painting of painter Leonid Afremov, the track it self has many sounds combining one on top of the other in a progressive release of the right amount of joyful vibe; with passages and percussions mixed with tweaked vocals, giving this track the perfect rithm.

To its round anniversary Dizzy Tunes presents a limited Vinyl-Only 2-track release by the Cologne producer Stefan Gubatz.

Besides his engagement with the well known Acid House Act Snuff Crew, Gubatz releases jam sessions under the name Dirtbox Jams at irregular intervals. The concept demands to only use music hardware such as synthesizers, drum computers and sequencers.

The title track “Warning” is an electro monster pervaded by heavy hitting TR-808 and TB-303, which builds up an uncanny tension over its entire playing time of 10 minutes and culminates in an extatic acid excess.

On the other hand, “Saturday Night Jam” on Side B comes along more calmly but also unfolds its charming effect over a full 10 minutes. Here, Gubatz reflects on Detroit Techno virtues and reverts to the legendary sound of the TR-909 and the Juno 106. Of course, the TB-303 is not to be missed either.

Mysterious new label, let the music speak and let doves cry.

For his first solo release on Knotweed, Argentinian producer DYING comes up with four emotionally charged tracks.

We are celebrating 10 years of Knotweed Records, exploring different shades of techno.

Tara Algios (a.k.a the DJ and producer Jett Chandon) has cemented herself as one of the hardest working artists in Washington, D.C.'s competitive, ever-evolving scene.

Julia is four tracks of murky, atmospheric techno energy - a snapshot of Algios’ own shapeshifting personal journey. “Flutter” is a cosmic mix of electro basslines, off-kilter drums, and driving synths that manage to hit you deep while rising up and up into thin, foggy air. “Warrior” screws with tempos and a chaotic sound palette for a heady roller of a tune that would wake up any dancefloor. “Mind of Surrounded” chops up vocals echoes
and more experimental techno sounds for a late-night trip that’s as
energizing as it is slightly unsettling. The nearly 10-minute “Julia” holds down the EP’s namesake with its soul-soaked synth chimes, progressive melodies, and restrained drums for the record’s most emotional tune. Like Algios’ own journey through the years, Julia is a deeply intimate snapshot of an artist who’s never taken the easy route towards self-discovery, but instead, has built on her experiences and challenges to get to this very moment.

Heavy bass laden Techno cuts. Demarcation unveils its next outing of dancefloor killers, sure to take the roof off.

On Sight Series is back with their second VA, including tracks by the Blossy duo Thorgerdur & A:G, IFF (Intergalactic Faerie Funk), and Onoffon. Artwork by Luigi Rodriguez.

The title track opens the release with luscious pads accompanied with breaky drum patterns. The mood is continued with ‘Vry1’, with and added tinge of electro, which the illustrious Bushwacka! takes to the next level with his remix of the track on the flip side. Close friend of the label and Northsouth co-founder Sam Bangura makes his debut remix appearance to close the EP with an ethereal and deep remix of “Delta Insignia”.

Fresh off the back of his most successful year yet, Ben Rau is in the perfect place to usher in the next generation of production talents , and so the vinyl only META is borne.
With prior experience in label management coming via his own INKAL imprint, an outlet for Ben's own productions , and with 4 represses on the first and second release respectively ,Ben is in prime position to lend his hand to a new breed of production and
DJ talent.
Created with the aim of helping push those on the brink of becoming regulars on the leading labels and those most cult-associated as shining stars within the underground.
Rhymos steps up to inaugurate the imprint in a reliably bass and groove heavy style.
A sterling name within minimal house & techno, that has been bubbling on the horizon throughout 2017, with headline appearances including Fabric's main room as part of
WetYourSelf!, Rhymos' 'Seizure' EP sets ablaze with the rolling subline of the title track,
that is accompanied by shimmering hats, that are intertwined with intermittent fx and synth licks throughout. 'Mi Casa Su Casa' provides the perfect B-side, a more rough and ready approach that is mixed with ambient pads and spaced out stabs in the breakdown, which break the track up nicely.
True to form, Ben provides a deeper touch to 'Mi Casa Su Casa', while still maintaining its dancefloor credibility. Glistening highs hypnotic pads and minimal trademark glitch ,
blissful chords and delayed vocals permeate Ben's remix ,
stripping the the track back to just its rumbling low end and drums after the break ensures the track slams and will whip even larger floors into a frenzy.

The partnership between the Slovenian DJ / producer and Modvlar began a few years ago and his presence behind the console of the Italian-Swiss party / label has become a constant. To complete it all, there are 3 Original Mixes that perfectly define Valentino's style: dancefloor, dancefloor and even dancefloor. Dragosh, one of the ambassadors of the Modvlar house, concludes the ep, who with one of his super Reworks goes to extrapolate and transform one of Valentino's works into something more minimal.
