Calling Mattheis a pillar of Nous'klaer Audio would be an understatement. Founded in 2013, the label was at the time solely created to put out Mattheis' Isms EP. Now, twelve years on, we present his latest album: Waiting for the Silhouette. The forty minute LP full of dreamy techno bliss explorations starts out, and is glued throughout, with ethereal modulating synths. Dreamscapes fuse into scattered drums and shifting patterns briefly usher in changing phases. It's in these moments when the unworldly contours take form and are built upon by other emerging elements. Waiting for the silhouette is a record about things coming to life, outlines that start to appear and shapes evoking memories that could as well be premonitions. Minimalism and maximalism become indistinguishable on this album, through the trip in between. Artwork by Frederic Dumoulin. The record is cut inside-out and comes with a downloadcard.

Kindred Phenomena marks Mattheis' debut album. After two cosmic EPs on Nous'klaer and a mini-album on tape for Ecstatic Recordings, he now returns to Nous'klaer for his first full story. An album shaped for every occasion: driving from the city to the island, dancing in the living room, or raving at sunset. On Kindred Phenomena Mattheis picks up where he left off: 'Swell' serves as another episode of the prisms, the modular synth excursion of 'Bit Fragments' pushes his arpeggiator solos a step further, and album standout 'Ben_M' provides his most beautiful dance of melodies yet. The album consists of eight tracks and comes as a double 12 inch for deejay convenience; and for the ultimate experience: go see Mattheis perform his album live on the road.

Ten years after bringing his infamous live sets to the island he grew up, Paul Twin debuts with White Island, investigating further into the community's hidden secrets. Working patiently on his sound, bringing together his great sense of melody with production expertise, he is now ready to share his sounds with the mainland. While the highly anthematic Turbulence, on the B side, has been in the pipeline for years, it is the A side that presents his latest revelation, being his most confident cut to date. Since last autumn it could already be heard on small and big dancefloors all over the continent, quite often standing out because of its heavy drums and magnificent twist in the break. Altogether White Island is an EP that comes from a mix of patience and experience, breathing air in lost sounds, reminding as much of psychedelic forest forays as endless kitchen raves.

Now that the ISMS EP has provided our favorite dance floors with magico moments and vivid arpeggio's, Nous'klaer Audio presents the second part of their collection of dance floor excursions. For the second release Oceanic presents a ticket to another yet unexplored destination. This EP may count as his proper debut, though his 'Kobo' contribution to the Rimini series of edits-to-go has already put joy to last summer's festivals. On Blanco Bero Oceanic follows on from the anthematic Kobo on Rimini with an EP of yet again uncanny-but-powerful dance music, ready to explore. Again vinyl only and silk-screened artwork
