PUNCHLINE 07 EP

Chain Reaction core-œuvre carefully revisited & luxuriously represented.

Twenty-four strikes on Exarde with Parchi Pubblici, the hardware analog act from Italy who records his songs in one take and have been laying it heavily and steadily for a while, henceforth we can hear the result of it with our own ears. The release consists of four original works by the man himself with first three ready for peak time club cuts with the help of roaring analog machines. They are produced to ready to sweat the dance floor, these stories are followed by a great outro track to conclude this EP. “Pressed Trouble” which is the name of this disc describes the content of it perfectly, because sure as hell this body of work is on the mission to create trouble and trouble sometimes needed to construct the top-level audio trips. Having produced digital contents for the respected labels that you can look up, this is a debut physical vinyl release by the artist and it is a great honour to host him on the label and hopefully to many more to come in the future.

Zonate returns with its fourth release, The Areca EP, showcasing the unmistakable sound of Italian producer Shkedul. A name that’s caught the attention of top touring DJs, Shkedul brings a signature touch to each track - distinct, striking, and built to stand apart.The A-side kicks off with Channel Z, a statement piece blending searing electro, a punchy kick, and haunting vocals - an instant head-turner. Following up, Discodancer leans into a driving techno groove, laced with acid lines and a bass built to shake big systems. Flipping to the B-side, Nothing Changes delivers a hypnotic techno tool, weaving between emotional pads and eerie leads, all carried by a relentless 4/4 pulse. Enrico Vivaldi steps in for the remix, reshaping the original into a more progressive, groove-infused vision, complete with intelligent vocal work and a slow-building intensity. With both Shkedul and Enrico Vivaldi gearing up for an exciting year of releases and gigs, The Areca EP cements their place as ones to watch.

To wrap up the year on a high note, Flight Mode presents Night-Vision, a solo EP produced by Montevideo-based artist Lanzieri. This release reflects the unique energy of the Uruguayan scene, which has been a major inspiration for the label. Get ready for some dancefloor bangers that will take you on a journey through the shadows of the night.
