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.

Marking its tenth release, NORD LTD unveils a powerful four-track record split between label founder Shkedul and rising talent Oho.

On the A-side, Shkedul delivers two hypnotic techno cuts: “Together”, a deep yet driving trip built on layered grooves and immersive textures, followed by “Mystic Drums”, where tribal percussion and dark atmospheres merge into pure dancefloor hypnosis.

The flip side introduces Oho with a sharp electro-infused approach. “Like That” strikes with raw basslines and crisp rhythms, while “Voice Of Dr.” closes the release in style, blending eerie voices and tense grooves into an uncompromising club weapon.

A milestone release that highlights the label’s essence —dark, forward-thinking, and made for the floor.
