  9. CF Signals: Luis Puga – Tengo la Clave [Behind The Noise]

    The Mexican electronic music map decentralizes its focus to find new narratives on the periphery. Based in the State of Mexico, the Behind The Noise imprint and platform consolidates itself as a supportive network open to experimentation without geographic boundaries. For its latest release, the label enlists the talent of Luis Puga, a DJ and producer from Toluca who, since launching his project in 2021, has stood out for his hybrid versatility. On this occasion, he delivers Tengo la Clave, a track where the night pulse of the dancefloor gets contaminated with provocation and unpredictable dynamics.

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2026/06/06/cfs-taff-sanjo-behind-the-noise/

    The track waives solemn introductions. Right from the start, its vocals unfold performatively, injecting a dose of energy and Mexican playfulness that twists the rigidity of the genre. Far from remaining on the surface, the piece rapidly spikes into a dark and electric energy, morphing into a dense, liquid, highly synthetic texture that extends as the backbone of the release.

    The topography of the composition is rugged—a succession of valleys and ridges that complexify the listening experience through wide and versatile structures. There is no room for monotony: every time the sound threatens to stabilize, the producer introduces a break, achieving a constant destabilization of stabilization that works flawlessly in its physical evolution. Latent synths and expansive movement reanimate the rhythm right at the edge of tension, forcing the body to stay in an uninterrupted state of alert.

    https://soundcloud.com/clubfuriess/cfs-luis-puga-tengo-la-clave-behind-the-noise

    Towards the close, the sonic architecture seeks neither a summary nor a gentle descent; it cuts off abruptly, leaving electric frequencies vibrating in mid-air like a suspended echo. With Tengo la Clave, Luis Puga and Behind The Noise sign a clear editorial stance on the present local scene: a hybrid techno that understands that today’s dancefloor is conquered by breaking its own rules of symmetry.

  10. Todo indica que musicar una selección de poemas de Pombo alejará a Genís y Carlos de esa onda tan improbablemente arrolladora de temas como Se malogró o El hombre de barro.

    ¿Y qué? ¿Cuándo pretendieron las Hidrogenesse llenar estadios? Se pasan la vida evitándolo y demostrando que se sobrevive -y se perdura- al margen de ello. Al margen de casi todo. Unos márgenes bien decorados y con unos gatos son un hogar.

    El nuevo adelanto del largo que se viene mejora los anteriores, eso sí, manteniendo su querencia esquiva a cualquier éxito comercial. Yo dije la verdad resulta más Hidrogenesse que Pombo, si bien la melodía parece haber estado siempre ahí, con el poema -y su saudade-, da la impresión de que lo leyeron desde el principio con esta entonación. Hay una naturalidad muy difícil de lograr aquí.

    <<Ningún jeroglífico se dibujó minuciosamente para que tú te perdieras.>>

    Es una gran suerte que aquí hayan seguido explorando hasta donde han querido con el uso de las cuerdas, que sin duda son lo más destacable e imprescindible: la belleza que derraman al ritmo de la pieza lo es todo aquí. Luego está el uso tan exquisito -y minimalista- de la caja de ritmos y su galope tan ligero como señorial.

    Así se dota al poema de una oscuridad que abraza y acoge con el hechizo de una noche con luna nueva, una que quizá quisieron alargar con el instrumental final, ya sin poema, o con una extensión silente de este, tras un arreglo pulsátil con tres golpes a negras que podría ser una emulación de máquina de hospital previendo el fin de la canción "como un ave desafortunada que entona varias melodías".

    Por suerte se puede volver a poner.

  17. CF Signals: Giorgio Brindesi – On My Mind [Behind The Noise]

    Behind The Noise, the Mexican electronic music label focused on underground and crossover-oriented sounds, continues strengthening an identity built around openness and sonic exploration. More than simply functioning as a record label, the project operates as a support network for both emerging and established artists interested in developing music with a clear sense of personality, whether through experimental structures or direct dancefloor functionality. Across its catalog, one element remains constant: releases where groove and sonic identity converge without sacrificing freshness or direction.

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2026/05/05/cfp-youthindrvgs-darkness-behind-the-noise/

    For one of its latest releases, the label introduces Giorgio Brindesi, presenting “Love and Frequencies”, a project rooted in Indie Dance, Dark Disco, and Italo Disco aesthetics. Within that framework emerges ‘On My Mind’, a double-tracker driven by electric energy, nocturnal propulsion, and a sensual tension sustained from beginning to end. The release unfolds through luminous darkness — wet neon surfaces, reflective textures, and rhythms that gradually acquire a physical dimension of their own.

    https://soundcloud.com/clubfuriess/cfs-giorgio-brindesi-on-my-mind-behind-the-noise

    The title track immediately establishes its dancefloor-oriented force. Built around 128 BPM in F Major, “On My Mind” combines deep, highly mobile basslines with textures drawing from minimal bass and bass house, while a sharply constructed groove maintains constant momentum throughout the track. Female vocals move through the center of the mix like hypnotic transmissions, carrying emotional tones that fluctuate between desire, chemical euphoria, and psychological tension. Conceptually, the track revolves around substances, altered perception, and the lingering sensory residue left behind after the rave itself — the moment when the body leaves the space while the mind remains trapped inside the pulse.

    From the very beginning, the sound feels electric, piercing, and physically overwhelming. Neon darkness slowly floods the atmosphere while purple flashes and metallic frequencies spread across the body like synchronized voltage. The vocals emerge through dense synthetic layers, breathing against the groove with an almost ritualistic intensity. Everything unfolds like a carefully engineered sonic spell: movement takes control immediately, and the body gradually dissolves into a current where rhythm, desire, and perception collapse into the same frequency.

  18. CF Premiere: Cuba Campechana – Todo el Spot Reventé [Behind the Noise]

    Born from an irreverent accumulation of the collective subconscious, Cuba Campechana emerges from Toluca with a proposal that moves fluidly across genres and references. Rooted in indie dance, his sound expands into territories where rock, disco, techno, house, punk, and metal coexist without hierarchy, forming a language driven by energy and identity. The result shifts between euphoria and darkness, creating an atmosphere that engages both body and perception.

    There’s a clear connection to the rockstar figure in his approach, not as nostalgia but as an attitude translated into sonic intensity. The dancefloor becomes a space of release where excess, aesthetics, and presence merge into a direct experience. Each set and production channels this tension between overflow and control, shaping a narrative sustained by emotional precision.

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2025/02/17/cfr-2025-4-cuba-campechana-drugs-and-roll-ep-wax-on-tracks/

    Within this framework, “Todo el Spot Reventé”, released on Mexican label Behind The Noise, unfolds with dense, immediate energy. The structure is anchored by heavy basslines that strike with persistence, while upper layers introduce a darker edge that sharpens the overall experience. A distinct attitude runs through the track—forward-moving, unapologetic, fully present on the floor.

    The sonic construction maintains constant tension, blending dark disco elements with a rawness drawn from rock. The groove moves with sustained cadence, while the texture thickens progressively, creating a sense of controlled saturation. The space fills, compresses, and expands, keeping the body engaged within a continuous flow.

    https://soundcloud.com/clubfuriess/cfp-cuba-campechana-todo-el-spot-revente-btn

    In its progression, the track becomes a chronicle of a night pushed to its limits, where euphoria and exhaustion coexist. There’s no separation between experience and representation: sound captures that moment when collective energy peaks, when every gesture amplifies and every impulse resonates through the crowd.

    On a sensory level, the piece triggers an immediate physical response. The bass hits the chest, mid frequencies generate constant friction, and higher elements cut through the mix like brief flashes. Listening becomes embodied, immersive—aligned with a logic where sound is not only heard, but inhabited.

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2026/05/05/cfp-youthindrvgs-darkness-behind-the-noise/

    Within the current indie dance landscape, projects like Cuba Campechana’s reaffirm a move away from excessive polish toward a more textured expressiveness. There’s an intent to roughen the sound, to charge it with character and place it in a zone where the dancefloor becomes more than a site of consumption—a space of collective friction. That sustained tension leaves a trace that lingers long after the sound fades.

  19. CF Interview | apaull: «Do you have the gunfactor?» On Furnace Room Recordings

    Some albums arrive with a concept so precisely articulated that the music barely needs defending. Gunfactor, apaull’s new record on Furnace Room Recordings, is one of them. Ten tracks navigating the pathways to fame — and infamy — across a sonic palette that moves from techno to synthwave by way of industrial, always with an economy of means that signals someone who knows exactly what they’re doing. The title lettering is by Al Diaz, a past collaborator of Jean-Michel Basquiat. The photographs are by Dave Clarke. We spoke with apaull about the album, its contradictions, and the questions it leaves unanswered.

    Club Furies: The title operates simultaneously in two languages with meanings that don’t contradict each other but pull in different directions. Was that tension intentional from the start, or did the linguistic ambiguity emerge during the process and you decided to let it do its work?

    apaull: The tension was intentional. The Dutch meaning came first, though. I was having coffee with a Dutch booking agent and she said you need produce good music but also have the “gunfactor”, this intangible ’it factor’ to become successful (and famous). The immediate question is how does one achieve that “it factor”. The theme developed from there. Either you have exceptional talent which leads to fame or you are somehow notorious, which leads to infamy.

    https://soundcloud.com/apaull_music/sets/gunfactor-8-tracks

    Club Furies: The album draws an implicit distinction between earned fame and inflicted fame. Tracks like «Veilig» or «King Dome» seem to inhabit that grey zone where recognition arrives through circumstances no one would have chosen. How do you construct that difference narratively without collapsing into moral judgment?

    apaull: Great question. While I have strong personal views I try to present things agnostically. I create perspectives in my tracks, that sometimes belie my personal views, but are really there to ask the listener what they think. It’s like listening to a painting. What do you hear and what do you think about it?

    Club Furies: «Finishing School» summons something from another era that, by your own notes, «might still hold true today.» What strikes you as more unsettling: that those ideas persist, or that we still have to keep saying so?

    apaull: “Finishing School” is a tongue in cheek examination of societal structure. In previous eras, roles were more clearly defined than they are today, if not over the top rigid. Today we find ourselves in jello, where structure has been systematically removed. We now live in an open concept society, if not over the top lax. “Finishing School’s” light hearted question is do we need some of that structure back.

    Club Furies: The album has very specific geographies: Berlin in January, Detroit, New York implicit in «Veilig.» Do those physical contexts affect the compositional process technically — in the sound, the tempo, the processing — or do they function more as states of mind?

    apaull: Both. I absorb where I am and this influences my state of mind and how I write. I write music almost continually and love writing in hotel rooms. For instance, the album track “Fang Mich” (Catch Me) was written and produced in Berlin. It captures the vibes I soaked in from the winter weather, Tresor & Berghain techno forays, a cold and jet lag. I live two hours from Detroit, the birthplace of techno, and go there for Movement each year. Detroit techno is pretty straight ahead but with indelible flashes of house. It is warmer than Berlin techno. The track “Veilig” (Safe) was written about something that happened in New York. I have been there many times and carry the vibe of this ‘infinite city’ with me.

    Club Furies: «Cartel» proposes a kind of inverse moral relativism. It’s arguably the album’s most conceptually exposed position. What was the writing process like for that track: did you start from the concept or arrive at it through the music?

    apaull: I came accross the vocal sample first and used it as the track’s foundation. I wrote the music around this sample (normally I do it the other way around). I found it interesting that a politician would compare a global body (World Economic Forum) to Columbian drug cartels, the point being that the espoused global organizations are cartels, in there own right. The pandemic made clear that this is the case.

    https://open.spotify.com/intl-es/album/2zoMok0136WpNuiulxOrXq

    Club Furies: «True Though» suggests that sufficient fame functions as a shield. What’s interesting is that the track doesn’t sound like furious critique — it sounds more like resignation. Is that emotional ambiguity deliberate, or is it what came out?

    apaull: My song writing is about providing a perspective, without the proselytizing that fury might evoke. I create these track perspectives to be there subliminally, that is you will only hear them if you listen deeply and far away from the club. “True Though” is about how Canada’s now former prime minister could not remember how many times he had donned ‘black face’, was somehow not cancelled and was still able to ascend this high office. While I’m a firm believer in redemption, I doubt that other politicians would have received this benefit of the doubt.

    Club Furies: You close the album with «Altamont Joy,» which ends on «You’re gonna look real crazy, being on the other side of that line.» That line can be read as a warning, a statement of fact, or an irony. Did you want it to be all three at once?

    apaull: The sample, in question, was delivered, by the speaker, as an omimous warning. It presents two perspectives, the speaker’s and the other, across some imaginary dotted line into a philosophical ‘no mans land’. The point of the track is that we cannot function with this level of polarization because the ability to discuss and reach consensus is lost.

    https://soundcloud.com/apaull_music/gunfactor-demo

    Club Furies: Bringing in Al Diaz for the title lettering places the record in a visual conversation with eighties street art and everything that history implies. How did you come to him, and what did you want that choice to communicate?

    apaull: I met him through my friend and artist, Jason Maclean, on one of my trips to New York, and was mesmerized by his history and works. I was quite taken by his lettering (assembled from New York Metropolitan Transit Authority posters). For the purposes of creating visual artistic continuity between my releases I thought this lettering would work well.

    Club Furies: Every track on the album has a remix. That’s a structural decision, not an accessory one. What interests you about the dialogue between your version and another artist’s reinterpretation? Are there tracks where that tension feels particularly generative?

    apaull: I made a decision, early on, to release on my own label because I was new, wanted full control of my music and didn’t think the slog of attracting label interest was a good use of my time. Working with remixers was a good alternative to labels. I work with remixers for two reasons: 1. To have them create more danceable and club friendly versions of a track; and 2. To introduce my music to their audiences. The bonus is that I have been able to work with artists who I respect and admire, and learn from them.

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2026/02/22/cfp-apaull-king-dome-pyrame-frr034/

    Club Furies: Your music operates in a space where peak time and after-hours aren’t opposites but continuities. That implies a certain resistance to the kind of specialization the market tends to reward. How do you think about that position in relation to how electronic music circulates today?

    apaull: I see my music as art. While notionally it fits into the techno genre, I spend no time trying to get it to fit what is being played in clubs. While I enjoy club music, I see what is produced as being derivitive more than specialization. Clubgoers enjoy this musical continuity and for producers it can be a pathway to success. There is nothing wrong with that. I work diligently to create a sound, that is grounded but unique, and then work even harder to find the right audience. My work with club friendly remixers, as described above, is an invitation to their audience to become part of mine. Over time, what I produce will continue to work its way into clubs and other venues.

    Club Furies: Furnace Room Recordings is now thirty-six releases in. What does running your own label mean for a project like yours? Does the autonomy change what you’re willing to sign off on?

    apaull: The label means I get to release what I want and build a solid catalog that I control. It is a platform that now allows me to present my music to potential labels, remixers and venues and work to attract their interest. My goal is to write and professionally produce interesting tracks. I only sign off on and release  tracks after my team has given their stamp of approval.

    Club Furies: If the album asks «do you have the gunfactor?» — what’s your answer?

    apaull: Ultimately, that is for others to decide, but, to save them some time I would say, YES.

    https://youtu.be/xuALldIl4Uw

    Gunfactor is not a comfortable record, and it doesn’t try to be. It is a work that observes, with clinical detachment, the mechanisms by which the world rewards, ignores, or destroys people — and has the honesty not to offer solutions. In a circuit that often consumes itself in its own effervescence, apaull builds something slower and more durable: a body of work with edges, with conceptual texture, with the kind of coherence that can only come from someone who has been at this long enough not to need to impress anyone.

    The question that titles the album stays open. Perhaps that is the only honest answer there is.

    Gunfactor is released April 24, 2026 on Furnace Room Recordings (frr036), distributed by Superstition and available on all platforms. Remixes accompany the album as single and EP releases.

    As a complement to the Gunfactor release, the inclusion of the Dina Summer Remix, set to be released on May 22, adds a significant layer of contemporary energy to the project. This remix not only reinterprets apaull’s sonic vision but also serves as a strategic bridge for listeners to further explore the creative process detailed in this interview.

What do you hear and what do you think about it?

    Club Furies: «Finishing School» summons something from another era that, by your own notes, «might still hold true today.» What strikes you as more unsettling: that those ideas persist, or that we still have to keep saying so?

    apaull: “Finishing School” is a tongue in cheek examination of societal structure. In previous eras, roles were more clearly defined than they are today, if not over the top rigid. Today we find ourselves in jello, where structure has been systematically removed. We now live in an open concept society, if not over the top lax. “Finishing School’s” light hearted question is do we need some of that structure back.

    Club Furies: The album has very specific geographies: Berlin in January, Detroit, New York implicit in «Veilig.» Do those physical contexts affect the compositional process technically — in the sound, the tempo, the processing — or do they function more as states of mind?

    apaull: Both. I absorb where I am and this influences my state of mind and how I write. I write music almost continually and love writing in hotel rooms. For instance, the album track “Fang Mich” (Catch Me) was written and produced in Berlin. It captures the vibes I soaked in from the winter weather, Tresor & Berghain techno forays, a cold and jet lag. I live two hours from Detroit, the birthplace of techno, and go there for Movement each year. Detroit techno is pretty straight ahead but with indelible flashes of house. It is warmer than Berlin techno. The track “Veilig” (Safe) was written about something that happened in New York. I have been there many times and carry the vibe of this ‘infinite city’ with me.

    Club Furies: «Cartel» proposes a kind of inverse moral relativism. It’s arguably the album’s most conceptually exposed position. What was the writing process like for that track: did you start from the concept or arrive at it through the music?

    apaull: I came accross the vocal sample first and used it as the track’s foundation. I wrote the music around this sample (normally I do it the other way around). I found it interesting that a politician would compare a global body (World Economic Forum) to Columbian drug cartels, the point being that the espoused global organizations are cartels, in there own right. The pandemic made clear that this is the case.

    Club Furies: «True Though» suggests that sufficient fame functions as a shield. What’s interesting is that the track doesn’t sound like furious critique — it sounds more like resignation. Is that emotional ambiguity deliberate, or is it what came out?

    apaull: My song writing is about providing a perspective, without the proselytizing that fury might evoke. I create these track perspectives to be there subliminally, that is you will only hear them if you listen deeply and far away from the club. “True Though” is about how Canada’s now former prime minister could not remember how many times he had donned ‘black face’, was somehow not cancelled and was still able to ascend this high office. While I’m a firm believer in redemption, I doubt that other politicians would have received this benefit of the doubt.

    Club Furies: You close the album with «Altamont Joy,» which ends on «You’re gonna look real crazy, being on the other side of that line.» That line can be read as a warning, a statement of fact, or an irony. Did you want it to be all three at once?

    apaull: The sample, in question, was delivered, by the speaker, as an omimous warning. It presents two perspectives, the speaker’s and the other, across some imaginary dotted line into a philosophical ‘no mans land’. The point of the track is that we cannot function with this level of polarization because the ability to discuss and reach consensus is lost.

    Club Furies: Bringing in Al Diaz for the title lettering places the record in a visual conversation with eighties street art and everything that history implies. How did you come to him, and what did you want that choice to communicate?

    apaull: I met him through my friend and artist, Jason Maclean, on one of my trips to New York, and was mesmerized by his history and works. I was quite taken by his lettering (assembled from New York Metropolitan Transit Authority posters). For the purposes of creating visual artistic continuity between my releases I thought this lettering would work well.

    Club Furies: Every track on the album has a remix. That’s a structural decision, not an accessory one. What interests you about the dialogue between your version and another artist’s reinterpretation? Are there tracks where that tension feels particularly generative?

    apaull: I made a decision, early on, to release on my own label because I was new, wanted full control of my music and didn’t think the slog of attracting label interest was a good use of my time. Working with remixers was a good alternative to labels. I work with remixers for two reasons: 1. To have them create more danceable and club friendly versions of a track; and 2. To introduce my music to their audiences. The bonus is that I have been able to work with artists who I respect and admire, and learn from them.

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2026/02/22/cfp-apaull-king-dome-pyrame-frr034/

    Club Furies: Your music operates in a space where peak time and after-hours aren’t opposites but continuities. That implies a certain resistance to the kind of specialization the market tends to reward. How do you think about that position in relation to how electronic music circulates today?

    apaull: I see my music as art. While notionally it fits into the techno genre, I spend no time trying to get it to fit what is being played in clubs. While I enjoy club music, I see what is produced as being derivitive more than specialization. Clubgoers enjoy this musical continuity and for producers it can be a pathway to success. There is nothing wrong with that. I work diligently to create a sound, that is grounded but unique, and then work even harder to find the right audience. My work with club friendly remixers, as described above, is an invitation to their audience to become part of mine. Over time, what I produce will continue to work its way into clubs and other venues.

    Club Furies: Furnace Room Recordings is now thirty-six releases in. What does running your own label mean for a project like yours? Does the autonomy change what you’re willing to sign off on?

    apaull: The label means I get to release what I want and build a solid catalog that I control. It is a platform that now allows me to present my music to potential labels, remixers and venues and work to attract their interest. My goal is to write and professionally produce interesting tracks. I only sign off on and release  tracks after my team has given their stamp of approval.

    Club Furies: If the album asks «do you have the gunfactor?» — what’s your answer?

    apaull: Ultimately, that is for others to decide, but, to save them some time I would say, YES.

    https://youtu.be/xuALldIl4Uw

    Gunfactor is not a comfortable record, and it doesn’t try to be. It is a work that observes, with clinical detachment, the mechanisms by which the world rewards, ignores, or destroys people — and has the honesty not to offer solutions. In a circuit that often consumes itself in its own effervescence, apaull builds something slower and more durable: a body of work with edges, with conceptual texture, with the kind of coherence that can only come from someone who has been at this long enough not to need to impress anyone.

    The question that titles the album stays open. Perhaps that is the only honest answer there is.

    Gunfactor is released April 24, 2026 on Furnace Room Recordings (frr036), distributed by Superstition and available on all platforms. Remixes accompany the album as single and EP releases.

    As a complement to the Gunfactor release, the inclusion of the Dina Summer Remix, set to be released on May 22, adds a significant layer of contemporary energy to the project. This remix not only reinterprets apaull’s sonic vision but also serves as a strategic bridge for listeners to further explore the creative process detailed in this interview.

  23. CF Signals: Melina Genchi – Fuego [Behind The Noise]

    Behind The Noise, based in Mexico, operates beyond the traditional idea of a label. Its catalog unfolds as an expanding network, bringing together underground explorations and more open dancefloor readings, guided by a sense of sonic clarity and curatorial openness. There’s a sense of movement within its structure—artists from different contexts converge here, shaping and projecting their sound.

    From Necochea, Melina Genchi develops a trajectory that moves across various electronic territories before settling into a refined balance. Her language is built on the coexistence of melody and drive, a tension that remains active rather than resolved. Darkness within her sound doesn’t weigh down; it circulates, becoming rhythm.

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2026/04/09/cfp-badwolf-see-my-eyes-btn/

    Her approach blends deep melodic layers with dense atmospheres and a groove that moves with steady magnetism. Positioned between Indie Dance, Melodic Techno, and Peak Time, her sound creates an enveloping field, where vocals—filtered, almost mechanical—thread through the structure. The dancefloor becomes a continuous space, sustained by an energy that persists.

    With releases across labels in Italy, Romania, and Brazil, her production work reinforces an identity rooted in melodic tension and rhythmic clarity. Each track unfolds as a moving surface, where elements align with precision and a dark tonal core remains present.

    https://soundcloud.com/clubfuriess/cfp-melina-genchi-fuego-202026btn

    On Behind The Noise, she presents Fuego, a two-tracker that condenses this direction. The title track unfolds in a space where Indie Dance and Dark Disco intertwine, with a techno pulse running through its core. The groove establishes itself firmly, anchoring the body early on.

    The vocal line carries a direct presence, infused with a sensual tone that integrates seamlessly into the rhythm. Its repetition builds familiarity, grounding the listener as surrounding layers expand outward. There’s an incandescent warmth within the texture, a vibration that sustains and spreads across the dancefloor.

    The track finds its strength in this combination: a clear structure, a steady rhythm, and an atmosphere that envelops without excess. Fuego stands as a piece designed for movement, where the body aligns with an energy that remains active, circling within its own continuous flow.

  28. CF Premiere: Ruary – Syrup [NATIVO]

    Nativo is a record label and event promoter specializing in dance music. Founded in 2020 by Roliva, Fausto, and Prince Terrible, it emerged to create a safe, equitable, and conscious space for those involved in the entertainment world and to respond directly to the structural inequalities present in the music industry.

    Today, the label focuses on expanding its catalog and strengthening its series of releases, working closely with its roster while seeking new talents within the electronic scene. Nativo remains committed to fostering an inclusive environment while maintaining high standards of sonic quality and artistic curation.

    For its latest release, the spotlight turns to northern Mexico. In a territory where the land stretches endlessly and silence seems almost sentient, Chihuahua holds secrets time has yet to unravel. Known for phenomena such as the Zone of Silence and the Coyame incident—often referred to as the “Mexican Roswell”—this landscape of mystery becomes the symbolic backdrop for the project making its debut on the label.

    https://soundcloud.com/clubfuriess/cfp-suary-syrup-ntv012

    Ruary, originally from this region, is a sonic explorer whose trajectory dates back to the early 2000s. His engagement with electronic music has intertwined with photography and design, establishing him as a key figure within the Temblor/Epicentro collective, a northern talent incubator featuring artists such as Enjanzea2 and Zhino.

    The EP unfolds as an altered state of perception: restrained psychedelia, mental landscapes, and lysergic atmospheres that develop gradually. Rhythms stretch, measures breathe, and a restless yet steady percussion guides the journey. Acid arpeggios and spectral pads hover in layered formations, shaping a space where time dissolves and reorganizes itself.

    When a label and its artists converge with such conceptual and aesthetic clarity, there is little left to add—only to listen, and allow the sound to speak.

  29. CF Premiere: Evan Michael – Paranoia (Maks Légère Remix) [Kontrapunkt]

    This is how the curator of Kontrapunkt describes the story behind the new release:

    «It’s rare that demos land in my inbox and convince me instantly. That wasn’t the case with Evan Michael’s message. Evan works behind the scenes in New York’s nightlife and sent me a folder full of incredible tracks—each bursting with energy and joy. It was hard to choose, but in the end I went with Paranoia and Vice Versa

    https://clubfuries.com.mx/2026/01/11/cfp-dommie-gaeta-kontrapunkt/

    «Paranoia stands as a perfectly crafted dancefloor anthem, weaving cosmic synth textures with a radiant indie house sensibility. It’s the kind of track that feels destined to become an instant classic—the sort of release a label like Running Back might have wished to sign first. Meanwhile, Vice Versa raises the stakes with even brighter, more exhilarating energy. Its synth line radiates pure, unfiltered joy—almost childlike in its immediacy—lingering in the mind long after leaving the rave at dawn. A subtle layer of dreaminess balances the euphoria, giving the track both lift and depth.»

    https://soundcloud.com/clubfuriess/cfp-evan-michael-paranoia-maks-legere-remix-kontrapunkt

    We are also pleased to premiere the remix by Maks Légère, who fuses Berlin’s cool restraint with New York’s vibrant warmth. His rework introduces a lush dub texture that recalls the intimate, almost forbidden magic of the dancefloor—like wanting to capture in a photograph something that should only be experienced in the moment. In that oscillation between sophistication and sensuality, a magnetic groove takes shape: deep basslines, elastic rhythms, and an electric atmosphere that makes this remix an absolute sonic delight.
