VOICES FROM THE LAKE A.K.A. DONATO DOZZY & NEEL - [CONCRETE RECORDS LTD]
"531KHz" is without a doubt, a techno track conceived for the dancefloor, but with the dark settings and mental shades that characterize and make unique the work of Donato and Neel. Very few variations, a wall of bass, and an energy that engages mind and spirit.

MASTERING BLACK - BLACK ONE [MASTERING BLACK]
Ilker Soylu is a man of many guises. He returns under his Mastering Black alias, breaking the silence of a three-year hiatus with a broody and atmospheric four-track EP. This release rides electro BPMs for the title track ‘Obey’ and the ‘Obey’ rework on the B side, contrasted with A2 ‘Black Palms’ and B2 ‘Master Love’ that chug with tension around a slower BPM.
