Kvisha is the dancefloor-focused alias of DJ and producer qwqwqwqwa. His latest release on Kontext pushes rhythmic precision to its fraying point, reanimating the skeletal structures of ‘90s bleep techno and ‘00s minimalism through a raw, unpolished lens. Glitches, bleeps, and unquantised elements form the backbone, while playfully leaving room for surprises to slip through.

‍

It lands on Kontext, a young label shaped by close friendship and a shared vision of challenging sound orthodoxy. With an open-ended approach to sound and structure, the imprint creates space for dance music that drifts between function and exploration. The release will be celebrated with a warehouse event in Berlin on July 5th, featuring a close-knit lineup of artist-friends including Buttechno, Perila, Lowtec, Kvisha himself, and many more.

Minimal Collective’s premiere, caveman funk, sits in the cracks of the grid. A stripped-back loop of clipped claps and detuned tones, it’s as much about what’s missing as what’s there. The rhythm is steady, but the details keep shifting, tickling the brain while locking in the body. It’s precise, a little odd, and impossible not to move to.
