Launched in 2023, Berlin’s Hyphen is still new on the map, but already carving out a techno-centric sound with a leftfield tilt. Through events, a mix series, and a steadily growing discography, the label has set its sights on fostering experimentation both on and off the dancefloor.

‍

vauna is a Berlin producer, DJ, and co-founder of Hyphen, alongside members lorel, HALBTROCKEN, and BGA. As an artist, he focuses on the introspective yet physical side of electronic music, harmonising trance influences with modern-day techno. The fifth release also brings in TOMO, co-founder of Florence’s DE RIO, who channels his cerebral, experimental touch into a standout remix. Milan’s Peppe Amore, a producer and audio engineer, brings his own punch with a stomping rework that rounds off the release. Together, the originals and remixes form a dialogue, each stretching the material into new sonic ground.

‍

With the full release exploring what a mental take on contemporary techno can sound like, Minimal Collective premieres TOMO’s remix of Shouting At The Ground. A fine blend of peak-hour propulsion and tripped-out depth.
