Wifredo has maintained his relationship as a DJ with the techno scene since 1994, this date being when he began to perform in various clubs in Madrid's area and outside of it. In his aspect as a producer, the figures of Richard Polson, Regis, Portion Reform and Mugon are transcendental. More distant echoes of influences from Josh Wink and Enmanuel Top could give rise to the deeper subtext that ignited the spark of his creativity. He currently works with labels such as Inducted Waves, BSC Records, Hardtools, Logical Methods, B55 and Fracture Records. The imprint of their sets is always intense, since they are developed with a strong dynamic and minimalist character, based on the overlapping and concatenation of rhythms and basses. He currently collaborates with the S.A.P Techno Club collective, participating in multiple of their events. This set also adds moments to three decks that provide greater forcefulness to an already very energetic speech.

LPR-P068 By elektrabel

elektrabel symbolizes the true ethos of techno in its constant shifting of dark sonic purity while maintaining a danceable tempo.

Tomas Hartl, aka Elektrabel, is not afraid to admit that he is following the vision of the best underground techno records he grew up with in the 90s. Back then, the producers were all about expanding the sonic possibilities while maintaining the concept of the final record being mainly a kind of club weapon for DJs.
The combination of dark piercing sounds, hard beats and atmospheric depths is a basic tool that still works today. This seemingly simple approach carries throughout Elektrabel's discography: he alternates dense techno tracks on singles with sonic and rhythmic experiments on albums, such as the successful MISSING trilogy.
The same is true in his live performances.

Jeff Mills, who became a key figure in Elektrabel's career, recognized that this is not a mediocre production. Mills' lifelong fascination with the universe and his discoveries at the level of galaxies, stars, black holes and planets, were imprinted in the philosophy of his 6277 label, whose sonic mission was to be an expedition to Mars. His debut release on the label was the 2003 vinyl MISSION ONE, backed by Elektrabel, who had danced to Jeff Mills at Bratislava's popular U.Club just a few years before. In one of the interviews Jeff Mills talked about how Elektrabel's tracks were special because they contained frequencies he hadn't heard before. That's why it was interesting to start releasing Elektrabel's work.

The following single, CROCKS, heralded the release of his first album FOR VARIOUS REASONS, which opened the doors to clubs and festivals worldwide for him.

Elektrabel performs primarily his live techno act. He's constantly refining his set-up, whether expanding or minimizing it, with the simple aim of bringing his studio and sounds straight to the stage for the audience to enjoy.

Asier Morillas is A4, Dj and producer from Irun (Euskadi, Spain).
His music career started in 2014 as a Dj and some years later in 2018 as producer, releasing his first track “Black Machine” inside of Tonal 09 Compilation, and his first EP “Point Position” on Sub tl.
His debut becomes relevant and captures the attention of the media and the main artists on the scene, and he continues releasing his music in the following years on labels such as Illegal Alien (México) several EP’s, Faut Section ( Lewis Fautzi’s label ), Deadcert Records(UK) or Subsist Records (Spain).
In 2022 he released his first album "The Future Starts Now" on Axis Records, directed by Jeff Mills.
Also in the same year he created a new project with HD Substance called Rude Solo having two releases on the
Spanish labels Inguma Records and Sub tl again.
In 2023 his second album “There Is No Night Or Day” is released on Warm Up Recordings, run by Oscar Mulero.
For this 2024, Asier is working on some releases for different and relevant labels of techno scene.
His style is abstract and cosmic techno, cooked with modular synths and analog machines focused on futuristic sound design and complex arrangements.

LPR-P066 by Umbral
[Loopaina Records meets S.A.P. Techno Club]

In search of a broad musical space, Umbral's perspective tends completely towards a facet away from the main scene, focusing his participation in S.A.P Techno Club. Without a specific preference in nuances, his sessions cover all types of techno. This particular session is divided into two different parts. A first part more focused on middle harmonies, bass and kick drum, and a second part with more open rhythms and a more epic and industrial character.
