Next up via the Herrensauna collective’s expansive record label imprint is a six-track LP of euphoric tension and mutant electro from alien boogie commander Volruptus.
Unruly drums, erratic arpeggios, glitchy bass, high speeds. What more is there to say...

After two years since the first release, Herrensauna sets the tone of their label in this second release presenting music by 8 bold underground talents. ?The first record includes tracks by the New Yorker producer Isabella (Koen), Kenyan DJ and producer, and part of the Nyege Nyege collective Slikback on the A side, Californian producer Nebuchadnezzar as well as the Chicago / Berliner duo God69, on the B side. The second record includes firstly two exclusive remixes: C1 with the Colombian producer Verraco remixing Merino, and C2 with an iconic Dj Stingray remix from the new in-house Georgian resident Salome. On the last side of this record we finish with Dj Loser + Malafama from Greece and last but never least ZVRRA from Illinois. Hard driving bounces, drilling offbeats, dreamy and eerie soundscapes and sweaty breaks challenge this release. On artwork duties is resident artist Mauro Ventura (Dj Saliva), with the photography of Haakon Korbi.

During the last 5 years Herrensauna has become one of the most esteemed spaces of Berlin's queer underground. Showcasing a sound between experimental sonics and heavy techno in an open and intimate club setting, the collective has launched a batch with some of the most influential artists of the new generation of techno such as residents SPFDJ, Hector Oaks and co-founders CEM and MCMLXXXV. With Tresor as their main home on a monthly basis, they have expanded their vision internationally with showcases at clubs around Europe and key appearances on Boiler Room as well as an upcoming Herrensauna Takeover with the 4 residents B2B to close the UFO1 stage of Dekmantel 2021.

Now Herrensauna are set to kick off their record label presenting music by the underground talents they have been supporting in a series of vinyl EPs. The first installment includes tracks by in-house resident Cadency aka Hector Oaks, Copenhagen's Fast Forward member Sugar on the A side, and the duo of Peder Mannerfelt & Par Grindvik aka Aasthma featuring London's Dale Cornish as well as Historical Repeater, the collaborative project of Copenhagen-based producers Ctrls and Solid Blake, on the B side. While on artwork duties is Berlin-via-Porto multidisciplinary artist Mauro Ventura who will create a painting for each release.
