Theo Nasa’s ‘Lifeline’ EP on Charlotte de Witte’s RPM by KNTXT feels like a moment he has been moving toward for years. He describes releasing on the label as “very surreal… a massive milestone” and something he once pictured long before it became real. Now it arrives as a four-track statement shaped by instinct, history and personality. Buy/Stream it here: https://go.kntxt.be/RPMX016.


He talks about bringing “four different flavours” into the project. A way of showing how far his sound stretches without losing identity. He wanted it to be raw, energetic and sharp. “Pure unique flavours… high intensity and massive attitude” is how he puts it, and you hear that across the record.



His inspirations sit close to home. The gritty ’88 and ’89 Chicago and Detroit influence behind ‘Acid Will Never Die’. The label focused mindset behind ‘Attention’, where he placed the vocal in “specific parts to capture your attention on the dance floor.” The darker emotional weight behind ‘Lifeline’ is shaped by recent losses. “Seeing loved ones taken from you puts everything into perspective”, he says. That machine heartbeat in the track is there to wake people up. ‘XTASE’ brings the rave energy he grew up on. He calls it his favourite. “Built specifically for illegal warehouse parties and dark spaces.”


His connection with Charlotte started years back at Junction 2. A quick conversation after their sets turned into a longer path. “After 2 or 3 years, I got booked for KNTXT at Printworks… I believe that set caught the team’s attention.” Her description of his sound as “proper loopy club stuff” makes him smile because it taps straight into his roots.


Those roots run deep. Jungle, DnB and early Grime shaped everything. “These genres run through my blood every second.” You feel that raw repetition and weight in his techno, even when the ideas stretch far beyond where he started.

His own label, Alien Sound Trax, comes from that independent mindset. He launched it when no one was replying to his demos. “I’ve always not followed the crowd… I said to myself, I’ll push a unique style of Alien Sounds moving forward.” It became a home for his most distinctive work.


‘Lifeline’ carries emotional weight alongside the intensity. He calls the title genuinely personal. “It’s a real life I’m living and witnessing… my way of processing all that is this EP.” He wants listeners to understand the story because he feels it can ground people. “It’ll inspire them to enjoy their lives and not stress.”


His studio process adds to the detail people hear in his tracks. He listens to each element again and again before it earns a place. “Every sound has an emotion to it.” He imagines himself on the dance floor, feeling what each sound does to him. That is where the precision comes from. That is why the music feels so charged.



Even with support from one of techno’s biggest names, he stays steady. “I don’t idolise anyone… I’m just having fun being myself.” Authenticity keeps him hungry. The opportunities follow naturally.


What happens next stays unspoken for now. “I never like to mention what’s about to happen… I just enjoy the ride.” And with ‘Lifeline’, the ride feels like it’s heading into a new chapter.
