A stalwart of Madrid’s vibrant club scene, Spanish DJ and producer Landikhan has established himself as one of the most authentic electronic artists on the circuit, presenting a sound palette that’s as diversely pleasing as it is refined. Kicking off the year with a stream of releases for Earthly Delights and O’Tawa Records – as well as for his own LNDKHN imprint – the established artist now joins Paul Traeumer’s Berlin/Dresden-based, influential record label Kontrapost for the release of Antaares’ Voy a Volver EP, delivering a Slow Trance Remix for the extended player’s lead single. Antaares’ Voy a Volver EP channels deep introspection across its three original cuts; a gentle soundtrack straight from the depths of Mexico City’s underground club scene. Featuring remixes from both Landikhan and Moon’s Voyager, the EP presents an intoxicating marriage of hip-hop, electronica and mellow house sensibilities. Deeply hypnotic in its effect, Landikhan’s Slow Trance Remix is unequivocally cool from start to finish; with an acute focus on tribal timbres, the cut’s organic production elements usher in a satiable groove that showcases Landikhan’s world music affections. A staunch contributor to the house and electronica scape for many years now, Landikhan’s output made a significant shift after an epiphany at Ibiza’s storied WooMooN, moving towards a more spiritually-driven sound that champions deep breaks and ethnic tones. From that moment on, Landikhan’s unique positioning within electronic music was clear and he has since reached the full essence of his sound, bringing with it a host of new fans. An open and passionate relationship that embraces all manner of genres, Landikhan’s production style embraces his deep musical background and breeds it with contemporary design elements. In addition to releasing via his own award-winning label LNDKHN, Landikhan has graced some of the most prestigious imprints in the industry, including Crosstown Rebels’ Rebellion, Stil Vor Talent and Natura Sonoris, to name a few. Boasting well over 6 million streams and 90,000 monthly listeners on Spotify alone, it’s no surprise he was named Best Spanish-Speaking Electronica Artist by Vicious Magazine.

Following a mammoth debut on We Are The Brave with ‘Mental Warfare/Feed The Machine’ and a succeeding single for her own Kuukou Records (‘Propeller Punks’), Romania’s home-grown star now returns to OFF Recordings to deliver her latest hit, ‘False Prophets’. With over a decade of releases to her name, Simina’s back-catalogue has played an important role in the development of our beloved genre; the evolution of her sound profile presenting her as an act with the scope to enter into the upper echelons of techno. Taking influence from her roots in Romania and Toronto, as well her current base city of Berlin, Simina’s palate leans towards a more stripped-back and refined sound that champions percussion in its most intoxicating form. The follow up record to her globally-acclaimed, OFF Recordings release ‘Actuary’, Grigoriu’s ‘False Prophets’ pays homage to 90’s club culture and the industrial techno sound that it catalysed. A deep, resonating kick and rolling percussion give this record its peak-time worth, conducive to the darkened intimate clubs that it is intended for. A blissfully recondite record, Simina’s latest offering is raw and mechanic in its nature, opting for a cathartic blend of industrial timbres and heady melodic synth injections. One of the most respected imprints in the dance music space, Berlin-based OFF Recordings has chartered releases from the biggest names in electronic music over its fifteen year-long existence. Run by Andre Crom, the label is considered a rite of passage for many an aspiring producer and is responsible for skyrocketing countless careers.

Presenting as a stripped-back, hypnotic techno cut, Simina employs clean, minimal percussive elements to create a mesmeric foundation through which she builds this enveloping production. In true Simina style, we’re greeted with a delicate web of synth intricacies that ebb and flow through its six-minute run-time. Deliciously trippy in its effect, Actuary is another late-night gem from the contemporary star that will no doubt serve as a staple on the club and festival circuits for months and years to come.

https://www.facebook.com/djannabr https://soundcloud.com/dj_anna https://www.instagram.com/djannaofficial/ Order Today, Jon Hopkins reveals a transcendent new collaboration with Brazilian techno producer ANNA. Evolving over a month-long trans-Atlantic collaborative process, “Deep In The Glowing Heart (Night Version)”, feels like an explosive release of energy, inspired by Hopkins’ return to regular DJing this year. With early versions of this track being premiered to huge crowds by both artists at their DJ sets across the world - including ANNA at Coachella, and Hopkins at Fabric - the Night Version is now available to hear widely for the first time. The original version of “Deep In The Glowing Heart” is found on Jon Hopkins’ latest studio album Music For Psychedelic Therapy, released in November last year. Talking about the song, Hopkins said there is a feeling that “music can cleanse you, music can guide you through”. The Night Version takes you on a very different journey. Hopkins says of the collaboration: “I first came across ANNA’s music through her track Hidden Beauties, which I found myself playing in DJ sets all the time and always goes down so well. I then asked her to remix Singularity and the results were so amazing I was super keen to work with her again but in a more collaborative way, rather than just handing over stems. We went back and forth a lot and it flowed really well. I love how this one turned out, it’s such a meeting of our two styles.” ANNA adds: “It is a big honor to be able to create music together with Jon. His music is part of my daily life, part of my meditations, my long walks and contemplative moments. My remix for his track ‘Singularity’ had a huge impact on my career and getting to know Jon better since then, and collaborate on this version of DITGH, it feels like our relationship has come full circle!” Music For Psychedelic Therapy was Hopkins’ first full-length since sister albums, the GRAMMY-nominated Singularity (2018) and Immunity (2013), it was a departure in sound from these records; “an album with no beats, not one drum sound, something that is closer to a classical symphony than a dance / electronica record.” Alongside festival appearances this summer, Jon Hopkins is pleased to present several special playback events where there will be an immersive playback of Music For Psychedelic Therapy in full. Having run several of these gatherings previously in London, Austin and Los Angeles, upcoming dates include Wilderness Festival and Ireland’s Body & Soul Festival. Jon Hopkins has recently composed the score in 360 spatial sound for Unboxed Festival’s Dreammachine. Similarly positioned to Hopkins most recent album, Dreammachine is a multi-sensory experience based on Brion Gysin’s original flicker device and aims to unlock the mind through lights and music.
