This transcontinental techno VA brings together five visionary artists from different parts of the world.

Icelandic techno stalwart Exos opens the release with “Tunis,” a fast-paced, uncompromising track that pulses with distant echoes of African sounds. A piece that propels you forward, traversing time and textures.

From Paraguay, Victoria Mussi presents “Imaginary Rush,” a grid-altering track: behind its constant four-to-the-floor pattern lies a labyrinth of unexpected sonic accents. Techno that demands both dancing and deep listening.

Latvian producer Ksenia Kamikaza continues with “34 Hours of C,” a cinematic narrative shaped by futuristic sound design. With resonant synthesizers evoking sci-fi scenes, it becomes a sonic adventure floating over a mysterious dance floor.

Chilean artist Andrea Riffo contributes “Fissure State,” a fragile yet deeply intentional track, combining minimalist structures with an enveloping depth. Reflective and hypnotic, it possesses a subtle intensity that works perfectly for both openings and peak times.

Catalan non-binary artist Basso Mata closes the record with “Open Close,” moving away from stricter techno to delve into electro influenced by the mid-nineties. Combining distorted, almost guitar-like basslines with synthetic grooves, the result is as unexpected as it is irresistibly danceable.

Together, these five pieces construct a cohesive and diverse vision of contemporary techno: experimental, emotional, and deeply rooted in each artist's local context. A record designed for DJs who mix narratives, contrasts, and surprises. A secret weapon for those who mix stories, not just beats.
