04. Zemög – Derin (Daniel[i] Revisit)

SHORT INFO:

Deep suspension, tribal minimalism, and delicate whispers dominate the textured and meditative spaces of Zemög's universe. The imaginary and exuberant places, the waves that travels above the crystal clear water, the mist and the path to an unknown mountain. The drums resound their acoustic vibration and call our ancestors. Daniel[i]'s revisit closes the EP meditatively, a possibility to contemplate, thank, to reflect on our interior and externalize negative energy.

LISTENERS GUIDE - WHS03

The infinitive is the basic dictionary form of a verb when used
non-finitely. It is also the form chosen by Daniel[i] and Purl
for the tracks of WHS 03: return to the basics, simplicity,
pure nature distilled into music.
Pulsate starts with an ethereal soundscape, created to then
open to a deeper underwater exploration. There´s a universe
down there and the listener will be guided to appreciate its
beauty: lanternfish giving the tempo of this journey, marine
life to marvel at. We take a step back to observe and fill our
eyes and ears. We come back to the surface, finding peace and
calm.
Opening in a slow, thoughtful and majestic way, Compensate is a
hymn to balance. Since the very beginning, the listener will
notice a contrast between gloomy atmospheres and lighter
sounds, resulting in a chasing sensation that´s uncomfortable,
yet fascinating. Desire to explore, together with acceptance,
surrender to the things we simply can´t understand as humans.
The listener is then invited to explore darker, faster, more
pounding atmospheres. Intimidate anticipate it all in its title
: sounds, tempos, images, they all chase each other to create
an atmosphere that's daunting and fascinating at the same time.
A track to accompany one's journey, be it real or spiritual, a
trip where we let things happen as they come, accepting the
flow of life.
Resonate closes the B side drawing with sounds the depth of our
natural state. Close your eyes and transport yourself in lost
woods, alone in a tent at sunset, when the day is almost over
and ready to make room for the night. The wood is speaking, the
animals are awake, it's frightening but incredibly beautiful.
Crickets are singing their songs, frogs are bouncing from one
pond to another, water connects with air, resonate with earth
and with the smallnes of man in the face of nature._ Format : digital and 12" vinyl.

Tracklist 12" :
a1 Daniel[i] – Jalada
a2 Daniel[i] – Jalada (Wa Wu We Ventilation)
b1 Daniel[i] – Jalada (Feral Night Vision)
b2 Daniel[i] – Jalada (Illuvia Inversion)

LISTENERS GUIDE – WHS 01
It all starts with Jalada, an ocean of possibilities. It commences with whisper,
root-energy of the label, carefully and wisely performed by each of the four
tracks part of this record.
Daniel[i] starts in medias res, with muffled sounds that seem to embrace
everything, like mist surrounding a pond whose colors are reverberating all
around. Jalada paints with sound the shades of spring, engaging in a beautiful
dance with Mother Nature, exploring with attentive eyes, and ends with a
delicate coda that leaves the listener hungry for more.
Jalada’s first treatment is by Wa Wu We. We move to the outer world, still being
anchored to a natural environment: meditative, collective dance. Dense
soundscapes, immersive pads, frequencies in constant motion, techno filled with
lifeblood. Happily walking in nature, the listener is invited to look around.
The wind blows constantly, shaping melodies, expanding textures, bringing
darkness at times, light altering the surroundings at others. However, nothing
can change the direction and determination of this joyful stroll.
Feral steps in for the second rework, where his signature touch sets the scene
at night. Little bells like stars lighting up create a multidimensional,
shamanic atmosphere. Fascinating as the night itself, this version is both
primed for the dancefloor and reminiscent of a ritual in nature, where space and
time have no meaning. Haunting yet earthbound: the song of Syrens for nocturnal
beings.
The last treatment brings magic in: slower whispering, a diaphanous atmosphere,
watery sounds forging an enchanted universe. Illuvia is the rain bringing the
listener back to that misty pond, dripping sweat framing a candid smile after a
night of dancing. Solo collection of all thoughts, somehow needed for a
beginning that was a journey already. Percussive elements in the background
suggest a sort of uneasiness. Eventually nothing bad happens, dissolving into a
blissful end that maybe is just another beginning

LISTENERS GUIDE - WHS02

Sit tight, keep an open mind, let the balm of music surround you.
You are one of the multitude, in a collective listening act.
The nocturnal cicadas will guide your steps into Olorun’s enchanted world.
Asiento is gentle yet brave, attentive yet curious, the feeling at the start of
any journey, real or imagined. You can feel a light summery breeze on your skin,
accelerating your pulse: a need for exotic places. Accept it and savour it.
Tribal rhythm of the unknown, a pleasant memory of our past and the anchor to
the natural world. Intrigued by a flock of birds flying high, cherish the beauty
of this haven of sweetness immersed in lush nature.
Yoruba is a delicate ode to movement, a cinematic fantasy of this adventure
through the jungle. Pulsing, chasing, echoing: we are fascinated by the natural
world, especially because we can’t fully comprehend it. The adventurous Spirit
will show us the beauty of Gaia.
Aroüagues brings in ancestral voices to chase the listener, organic percussion
to create magical soundscapes. Like a sturdy shell that passes through foggy
textures, this is a moving meditation. The connection with the natural world is
reminded by the sound of the cicadas.
Daniel[i]’s Amalgam is a liquid sculpture, modeled on the crescendo of this
short but delightful voyage. Fog has become warm, a sense of rarefaction to come
full circle, creating a twirling, bouncing sense of dance, a place where getting
lost again and again. A place where appreciating the untouched beauty of this
universe, in times where this seems the most difficult thing to do.

5. / DX Fixed In Flux (Digital Bonus)


On April 3rd, 2026, Fireground returns to Tresor Records with Refreshing Part 2.
As with the band’s 2023 release of the same name, Refreshing Part 2 is a decisive and fierce collection of percussive techno that nonetheless travels its path with a heightened level of funkiness.
The Italian duo describe the concept behind this collection as being “not about resetting, but about balancing. Refreshing means reconnecting with the present and with the future…focusing on one’s own way in order to prevent the flow from becoming automatic, uncontrolled, and
without orientation. It is more a direction than a path.”
The four tracks on the 12” are hypnotic dives into a full spectrum of club music: the rhythms and sound design guiding the subconscious into visions of past, present and future intermingled, a reminder that all moments co-exist simultaneously.
Side A passes from the stripped-down intensity of The Way through to Elisir (Elixir), which manages to pull off a trick of feeling light and floaty while maintaining the power of its predecessor. The flip side opens with the forceful drive of Activate before making way to the
percussive elasticity of Family Tree, a track which closes out the EP by recalling, in both name and sound, how that which came before deeply affects the now, though often in ways only subliminally perceived.
Digital-only track Fixed in Flux continues this concept, and the overall themes of Refreshing Part 2, with further evocations of intent and movement; remaining present in change, without resisting it, yet without dissolving into it.

12"
Tracklist:
A1. Mechanical Vals
A2. Mechanical Vals (Feral Reshape)
B1. Toltequidad
B2. The Paths Of Rhythm
B3. The Paths Of Rhythm (Vardae Reinterpretation)

Barely six months after the debut, the paths of the label and the artist converge once more — at their intersection, TECH039 emerges. This work significantly expands the musical language of Andy Martin: evolution is audible within every single recording. Tonally, rhythmically, and accent-wise, the release becomes a deep exploration of how personal experience transforms artistic signature, turning it into a new legacy for the local and global scene.

We see the author in a moment of artistic self-determination, on his path to international recognition. This is the sound of a master who cares about context, yet fundamentally refuses to meet outside expectations. At the core of TECH039 lies the concept of techno-futurism — sound projected forward, yet anchored in the fundamental laws of nature.

On the record: a transit from atmospheric harmonies and complex percussive structures to near-ambient variations, followed by gripping, mind-piercing sounds set against a functional bassline. This is a story of five distinct states, conceptually unified by a shared relation to the outer world, rather than the rigid boundaries of style.

- Mechanical Vals — fully positions the spirit of the record, referencing the incomparable signature of Andy Martin.
- The Paths of Rhythm — creates a rhythmic hypnotic structure, inviting DJs to uncover additional layers.
- Toltequidad – serves as a reminder that even the darkest night has its limits, and lighter hours inevitably arrive.

The integrity of the statement is completed by two interpretations:
- Vardae Reinterpretation — a reinterpretation deepening the original's hypnotic component.- Feral Reshape — a structural transformation emphasizing natural, organic power.

A substantial record for the collector’s archive and home listening, as well as a functional tool for the club night.

4. SHORT INFO:
Cinna Peyghamy unveils new album fusing Persian tombak and modular synthesis
Five years in the making, "Music For Tombak & Synth" bridges heritage, technology, and personal
identity. The project, initiated in 2019 during Peyghamy's master's thesis research on contact
microphones, was conceived as a means to reconnect with his Persian roots while exploringexperimental sound design. In the album, Peyghamy seamlessly blends the traditional Persian
tombak with modular synthesis and digital signal processing, creating a distinctive musical landscape
that bridges live improvisation and studio production. The album’s genesis traces back to Peyghamy’s
exploration of improvised electronic music and his desire to craft a performance-ready setup. Over
several years, the project evolved from capturing the energy of his live shows into a fully composed
studio work.

"Music For Tombak & Synth" stands as the first record where Peyghamy unites his dual identities as a
live performer and producer, resulting in a body of work that reflects his deep connection to family,
memory, and cultural heritage. The album features personal elements such as his father’s voice
reciting the poetry of Ahmad Shamlo on the track Dar Shab ,?? ??collaborations with long-time friend
Quelque Bourdon on clarinet, and the evocative sounds of the Persian setar, all anchored by the
physicality and rhythms of the tombak. A sentiment further reflected in the album cover; a photograph
taken by his father, Khosrow ‘Payram’ Peyghamy, picturing both his parents and grandparents.

With this release, Peyghamy moves beyond conventional boundaries of "traditional versus
contemporary" or "acoustic versus electronic," instead offering a nuanced exploration of identity
through sound. Each track serves as a keepsake, referencing cherished memories, emotions, and
musical influences that define his experience as a French-born artist of Iranian descent, unable to visit
his home country. "Music For Tombak & Synth" invites listeners to engage with a deeply personal
narrative, rooted in both cultural history and sonic innovation.

Release Info:
In March 2023, Tresor Records will release "Crash Recoil", a new album by Surgeon. It marks Anthony Child's first techno LP in five years, following a period in which he felt uncertainty in his role as a techno producer and found it tough to locate inspiration. This new album encounters him drawing on spontaneous techniques to arrive at unchartered topographies. "Crash Recoil" originates from Surgeon's recent live sets, where he experimented with constraints in performing and embracing the twists, turns and paradoxes that arrive from this. Each fresh iteration on consistent MIDI sequences and hardware reconfigured tracks into dierent constellations, creating an inspiring vortex of unpredicted events where ideas could flourish. This new approach allowed him to capture the spontaneous energy of his live shows in a way he had never done before. "This is not a live album, since it has not been recorded in one go during a live performance. In the same way that bands tour songs before going into the studio to record an album, I was able to explore these songs and hone their eectiveness during my live performances before creating a studio version."
The result is eight tracks that emphasise a new techno sound for Surgeon, drawing in references from across the musical spectrum. "I can hear Coil, King Tubby, Detroit Techno and The Cure all wrapped up with 30 years of DJing," Surgeon says of the album. Melancholic hum-like ambiences smudge around unadorned, near-droning basslines, crunching rhythm and percolating arpeggiations. The tracks carry unique and potent locomotion, with a low-slung grind through toughened terrains, breathing with a free spirit, untethered by a studio-based perspective. We hear manifestations of the same raw material across the album, like a textural motif, carving new variants and creating a cohesive work full of recollection.

Release Info:
Tresor Records is fortunate enough to be sitting on a catalogue of past releases that no other label in electronic music would turn down. Three of the finest in this collection were contributed by Surgeon; “Basictonalvocabulary”, “Balance” and “Force + Form”, which all came out between 1997 and 1999.
Surgeon’s inimitable combination of Detroit techno and post-industrial sounds emanating from his British homeland found its fullest expression in these masterful trio of releases.
Following the release of Surgeon's first album in 5 years "Crash Recoil" earlier in 2023, Tresor Records have decided that its high time to give these seminal albums another airing.
