Zeit Des Erwachens

Iro Aka are back on Hivern with the last installment of the trilogy that started back in 2020 with "El Passatge de les Ombres". The present album, "Planet Earth", which will also be released on CD, showcases a new side of the catalan duo. The seven songs share a clinical approach in sound design of both percussion and ambiances. Cuts like the opener "14.696" build up slowly while "Aquamarine", one of the singles, showcases a more euphoric side of the project. This combination of tension, spaced out beats and hypnotic cuts reflects Iro Aka's commitment to creating a cohesive and immersive work that rewards thorough listens.

Peter Gijselaers aka Break 3000, legendary producer in charge of the acclaimed Dirt Crew label. This first ascent brings us “Sacrifice” originally released on Meuse Muzique Records in 2002, powerful electro for peak hours at night. “Last Emotion” another bomb from peter's baul released between 1998 - 2002, same as “Believe”, special to end a long time sessions, here we will hear the true meaning of a vocoder. “Wide” classic electro bomb with a totally killer bass.

Within the depths of the lysergic mind, an oscillating experience emerged, captivating the individual from within and guiding it on a transformative journey.

Argentinian musician Furz presents the twenty-third release with an incredible warm vibe for hot dance floors.

Luca Lozano and Mr. Ho buckle up in the bucket seats and bring you a shiny new collaboration in the form of TWOCKERS. Club-ready and suped up Hard-House bangers with an injection of classic Rap lyrics that are sure to slay every dancefloor. This is not the sound of your favourite audiophile listening bar complete with gold plated Rotary mixer and wall of expensive unplayed vinyl, this is the sound of Southport's Manhattans nightclub in 1997. This is the sound of Vauxhall Corsa's driving down the M62 and Max Power compilation CDs with fresh hot rock burns in the casing.

INDEX:Records is blessed to announce the homecoming of Ike. It’s been a wee while since his last full club outing, but we welcome him back to this realm with open-arms.Lacing up with chuggy system-rattler 'Vernis VIP', Pulsar is a symbiosis of palpitating-wub and delicate, soft melody. On 'Rose Quartz', perfectly sedated drums are melded with luscious vox – a gratifying release to bass-driven tension-builder, 'Gage'. Mushing a cherry immaculately on top is a Mathis Ruffing indulgence ('Gage Remix'), who treats us to a frenzied yet controlled excursion into DnB hedonism.Limited edition 12" vinyl of 150 copies, with full colour centre label artwork, white inners and pink outer sleeve.Written & Produced by Ike ZwanikkenRemix by Mathis RuffingArtwork by Amos TurnerMastered & Cut by Marco @ Analog CutWords by Conna Haraway
