Emerging from Stockholm, Obergman has carved out a respected space within the world of electronic music over the past two decades. He has become synonymous with a signature blend of electro, acid, and proto-techno, which he has meticulously crafted through releases on some of the most respected labels in the genre. Starting his journey in the late 90s, the debut came in 2001 with a release on the iconic Skam Records, home of pioneering acts like Gescom.

His early work laid the foundation for what would become a string of impactful releases on labels such as Stilleben Records, Abstract Forms, Brokntoys, Börft Records, and Furthur Electronix. The evolution of his music reflects a clear shift toward a more refined approach, underscored by a preference for fine-tuned melodics, intricate drum programming and a distinctive use of iconic synthesizers.

Throughout the years, Obergman has continued to release standout EPs that showcase his versatility. On his releases for Furthur Electronix, he delves deep into acid territory, crafting tracks that range from melodic rollers to high-energy peak-time cuts, all infused with his trademark blend of TB-303 squiggles and eerie atmospheres. His cherished collaborations with the Stilleben, Brokntoys, Craigie Knowes and Pariter labels, see him further refining his electro-techno fusion, delivering tracks that are as muscular and propulsive as they are deeply atmospheric.

The Block E.P. by A.J. Sound, alias of Arthur Smith and John Kennedy, is a reissue of a 1995 Techno and Acid classic. Known for ‘Basemental’, featured in Laurent Garnier’s ‘Laboratoire Mix’. Originally rare, now reissued by Decoy Records.
New London-based label Plasticity Records hits the ground running with a hard-hitting, dancefloor-focused VA featuring four varied tracks, connected by a raw, propulsive sound thread running throughout.Kicking off the A side is established Barcelona-based duo Nulek & Roto with Eternal Space — a stuttering, pitch-black techno/electro piece featuring an ominous vocal that sends shivers down your spine. Rounding out this side is Study Nights by Uruguayan talent Flhez, leaning heavily into the country’s rich musical tradition with plenty of spooky synths and rough analogue textures.Over on the B side, Barcelona-based Romanian Mar.C delivers Not Normal — a tough-as-nails, EBM-tinged techno number that’s sure to get any dancefloor moving. Last up is the broken and decidedly wonky Nuclear Era from Lima-based Venezuelan purveyor of all things percussive and leftfield, Acid Charlie.
Returning for a full EP under the new solo alias, Wilba brings fresh twist on his trademark Duowe sound, reimagined through a more emotive and immersive lens. Inspired by sets seen over festival this latest offering brings four moody cuts that blur the lines between Electro and Tech House.Stripped-back drum grooves, rumbling basslines, and echo-laced synths designed to move bodies and minds deep in woodland rave clearings.Retracing steps of old habits, this time with a few new tricks.

A beautiful record created with pure class, backed by Brent's extensive knowledge of dance music production.
Picnic return after a summer hiatus with a dance floor ready 4 tracker from UK artist HenryG. The debut EP from the Manchester based producer delicately transitions between house and electro, while touching on some progressive elements in between. A1 comes in heavy with tastefully written synths and glitchy electro sounds drawing the listener into a dance floor trance. The A2 of the record, aptly named Serpent, slithers through progressive arpeggiators and a has a particularly distinctive, raw bassline, giving the immersive synths the power to carry the track.On the flip side, B1 explores a deeper approach to HenryG’s studio output and resonates strongly with early dub techno cuts. The vocal really personifies the track and brings it to life. B2 does it exactly what it says on tin, it’s tough.Although the structure somewhat resembles a more electro tip, it finds the perfect balance in between the electro realm and underground house.
The sounds of the past, rebuilt for the present. The Revival EP nods back to late 90s house and tech house: stripped-back, dancefloor-focused grooves with the raw energy and unmistakable character of that time. More than simple emulations, these tracks were specifically engineered to capture the authentic feel, sound and spirit of those records.Written, recorded and mixed at T90s Studios in Manchester over 18 months, the EP was produced with a fully period-accurate workflow. No plugins were used, only the same hardware, processes and techniques that producers relied on back then. Years of research and setup went into building this system, making the project as much a labour of love as it is a record. The result is four tracks that could easily be mistaken for lost cuts from the era, but made today. Nicely!
