Return Fall joins forces with Chris Mantanz on ‘Esto’, the title track from their new EP, landing via Codex Recordings.
From the first moments, ‘Esto’ sets a clear tone. Heavy kicks and sharp, metallic percussion drive the track forward, creating a sense of pressure that holds throughout. The groove feels tight and deliberate, built for peak-time settings.
At the same time, the production leans into atmosphere. Dark, rising synth leads cut through the mix, adding tension and depth without breaking the flow. That balance between weight and space gives the track its identity, keeping it both functional and immersive.
Return Fall has been steadily building momentum since stepping into techno in 2019. His sets and productions focus on energy and control, aiming to pull listeners out of the everyday and into something more focused. That approach carries directly into ‘Esto’, where every element feels intentional and locked in.
Alongside him, Chris Mantanz brings a strong technical foundation shaped by years of musical training and audio engineering. His contribution adds clarity and structure to the collaboration, helping refine the track’s overall impact.
Both artists have been gaining traction across the scene. Return Fall has already picked up support from names like Charlotte de Witte and Thomas Schumacher, while Mantanz continues to build his presence across clubs and festivals in Northern Germany.
‘Esto’ captures where both artists meet. It is driving, focused and built with the dancefloor in mind, while still carrying enough atmosphere to stand out across longer sets.
