This one means a lot to me. The response so far has been brilliant and it's another reminder that the countless hours spent learning, experimenting and refining my sound are starting to pay off.

The track opens a huge 14-track VA curated by Balrog , showcasing some serious industrial techno talent from across the scene.

Buzzing to be featured alongside Decibel Place, Primal, AAKAARA, Balrog, EAS and a stacked lineup of producers.

Still developing and pushing forward, but definitely excited about where the journey is heading.

Didn’t expect this.

Mad WOW has landed on the Beatport Hard Techno front page, hit the Best New Hard Techno playlist and even made the Weekend Picks selection across the wider platform.

Good to see something dirty and slightly unhinged finding its people.

Appreciate everyone playing it, sharing it, buying it and pushing it further.

They say "never meet your heroes," but nobody mentions what happens when you start producing music with them. ⛓️‍💥

I’ve been a fan of Carl Short since his Let’s Rave EP. Over the last few years, Carl has gone from being a massive influence to a mentor, offering tips on my early tracks that helped me find my footing.

When we finally sat down to collaborate, the goal was simple: no filler, just raw, old-school hard techno.

We pushed each other hard to get the groove and the energy right. I’m incredibly proud of how these two turned out. "

Mad Wow" and "Suit Yourself" are officially about to drop on the mighty Resilient Records.

It’s been a hell of a journey from fan to label-mate.
Thanks for the support.

Liverpool’s Leeks steps into Dark Matter.

Been lining this one up for a while.

His sound sits in a place most people miss, it's dark and driving, but with groove. You can hear the UK garage influence in the way it moves.

If you’re tired of techno that just hammers you for an hour, this shifts the energy without losing it.

Leeks played for us at Technophobia when Gary Beck headlined and locked the room in properly. Same energy here.

1 hour. Press play.

Using Machines is out now on Capital Techno Records — exclusively on Beatport.

Two tracks of bass-heavy, groove-led, unapologetically dirty, hard techno.

1. Using Machines.
2. I Need It.

🎧 Headphones recommended.
