Press Info:
To celebrate the 20th anniversary, Collabs 3000: Metalism, the original classic pure techno album and first full-length collaboration between techno innovators Chris Liebing and Speedy J, is remastered and reissued via NovaMute.

Originally launched by Speedy J (aka Jochem Paap) as a platform for 12” collaborations with other artists, the Collabs series laid the groundwork for what would become one of techno’s most compelling partnerships. The first release with Chris Liebing, Collabs 300 (featuring ‘Trick_’ / ‘Treflon_’), landed in 2004 to a rapturous response; its machine-funk intensity and unmistakable breakdowns helped define the sound of early 2000s techno whilst revealing a writing and production chemistry that demanded a larger playground for their work.

That creative spark ultimately manifested in Collabs 3000: Metalism, a landmark record for techno. Combining the pair’s mastery of subversive electronics and peak-time techno, the album remains a career highlight for both artists: a smouldering collision of taut techno rhythms, sonic abstraction, and, as the title suggests, robust metallic beats.

The 20th anniversary edition of this timeless techno masterpiece has been fully remastered by Liebing himself and is available on CD and for the first time on vinyl across 2 discs.

Note: the track “Trikco (Live)” from the CD release in 2005 is not included.

Press Info:
Achievement proudly announces its official launch with the first release, Momentum, by Wigbert. A deep and mystic techno journey crafted for the dancefloor and beyond. This debut release is a sonic exploration of hypnotic rhythms, atmospheric textures, and evolving energy, reflecting the essence of modern techno with a profound sense of depth and movement.

Opening with Supercell, the album sets the tone with groovy rhythms and resonant melodies, establishing a modern yet timeless sound. Synapse Impulse follows with driving 909 toms and hypnotic bleep synths, creating a trippy and relentless groove. Echocord expands the atmosphere with swirling, mystical textures, while Phantom builds up momentum through evolving melodies and an intense, forward-driving energy.

As the album unfolds, Veil introduces a cinematic and deeply mystical shift, as if marking the beginning of a new chapter. Pattern Cycle locks into a hypnotic bassline, embodying the steady flow of an unstoppable process. Subterranean Wavesplunges into aquatic soundscapes, rich in dynamic design and clarity.
With Operator, the energy peaks—powerful, repetitive bell-like sequences and noise-infused effects make it a club-focused force. New Momentum then reintroduces atmospheric depth with whispering vocals, mystic synth pads, and 909-driven drums, building an ethereal tension.

In the final stretch, Spectral marches forward with evolving pads and a sense of transformation, while Return of Art brings a dancefloor-ready groove with immersive, shifting elements and TR-909 sounds. Closing the journey, Aurora unfolds with dreamy arpeggios, offering a hopeful, positive transformation—an uplifting end to a deeply immersive experience.

Sie Lacht
(Danny Daze Remix)

Press Info:
Schwefelgelb show their diversity in an impressive manner. A vibrant record with a very positive aura, which makes you want to dance with a smile. Minimalistic and clearly arranged, showing each element’s full potential. Unfolding dance music’s power with no distraction.

„Ay“ is all about its irresistible groove, which is smooth but yet punchy. A compelling opener which reminds Leftfield House.

“Randseiter” is an intriguing Techno track balancing stomping EBM rhythm and playful syncopic melody patterns.

With “Sie Lacht” we turn to a cheerful and uplifting combination of subtle Jungle rhythms, prominent bass and quirky lead, undoubtedly referencing UK Bass music.

If you’re out for some rumble you’ll find it in JANEIN’s remix of “Ay”. Despite its Industrial darkness it’s not too shy to implement melodic parts. A haunting mix of pumping kick and funky stab sequences.

There isn’t really a box for Danny Daze’s remix of “Sie Lacht”. This digital bonus track is full of creative surprises.
