Press Info:
X-IMG presents “SEARCHING HELL” the new album by industrial body music producer SARIN. This new 12” full-length marks his first release in six years and his most uncompromising output since the project’s inception.
SARIN has spent the last years sharpening his teeth on numerous collaborations as well as countless remixes, evolving and elevating his sound to new levels. This evolution is on full display with the Gesamtkunstwerk that is “SEARCHING HELL”; a nine track cybernetic joyride into oblivion featuring his distinct militant drum work, heat-seeking bass lines and surgically interlaced sampling, augmented by deceptively serene atmospheric pads & bloodied vocals. This newest and long awaited album has been composed and assembled with an arsenal of analog, digital and software based weaponry. “SEARCHING HELL” seeks to find meaning in an increasingly meaningless & subjugated world while maintaining a subversive & defiant autonomy.

Press Info:
Above The Clouds I Finally Found Peace”, the latest work from French artist Quelza (Leo Naït Aïssa) on Ostgut Ton, feels like a homecoming.
A testament to introspection and self-awareness.
Rather than adhering strictly to a club-focused approach, the EP marks a step forward in freedom of expression, breaking away from a purely club-based format and instead leading into a broader listening territory. It unfolds as a personal musical journal shaped by perception, memory, and emotion.
As its title suggests, the record carries a spiritual undercurrent. It stands as a sincere sonic statement from a young artist, driven by a clear intention: to express vulnerability and honesty through sound.
The EP invites the listener to let go of expectations formed by previous releases, while preserving the emotional intensity and distinctive sonic identity that have come to define this work in recent years.”
