Kalahari Oyster Cult

10/12/2025

Rounding up the year soothingly with one of techno greats, John Beltran’s Placid Angles.

Revived after a 22 year hiatus, PA has since become our main source for new Beltran material. Buy-on-sight stuff for those seeking ambient techno of a rarified calibre. There’s an inevitable pinch-me moment whenever a producer of undeniable influence jumps on the label, and safe to say, this is one of those moments.
Expect sun-kissed Balearica and sublime, acid-fuelled romance. Sometimes we levitate, bathing in the glow of JB’s beatific harmony and sanguine tenderness. The slow-burn simmer of 303, the lithe gliding of his breaks; all of it demonstrating effortlessness of ex*****on.

Choral vocals ascend, vistas pristine and closer listens reveal even greater levels of detail. You might say it’s the gift that keeps on giving.

Our next week.

How about a volley of hydraulic heaters from one of Denmark’s finest?

Already a man of many projects, both on the label side and in the studio, has minted a brand-new alias… Enter Aquafaba, the ocean floor operator kicking it on a subaqueous tip.

Not many moving like this today. Properly submerged techno, masterful and ultra-essential by Aquafaba, self-monikered after the starchy, liquid byproduct of cooking chickpeas. Patrick Star would be proud for sure.

From Aarhus to the deepest ocean trenches in pursuit of that fathoms-below sound. Nods to the Midwest - chiefly mid-‘90s Robert Hood and Cajmere’s ‘Percolator’ - felt in parts, but it’s also riddled with ultra-engrossing detail. Zaks goes heavy with the effects as tracky rollers are propelled to new mesmeric heights, even allowing for a moment of proper widescreen ascension.

Heads-down dynami### in full effect as we harness immense hydraulic power. Eschewing instant dancefloor gratification, Zaks emerges with tension and funk, like only the finest strains of techno can achieve.

Latest record off the Kalahari production line comes courtesy of a real one. Klon Dump in the building, moving like a madman across four barrelling tech house scorchers.

Part-producer, part-engineer and a long time co-conspirator of A Colourful Storm’s Moopie. Better known to some under the alias Mark, but always surefire for some serious dancefloor potency. Doubters, look no further-this is another demonstration of his mastery.

Big with the radiant stabs, even bigger on the earworm groove. Ploughing the furrow of tough, direct but deft as the Klon Dump faithful will have come to expect by now. Proper belters.

Always flexing outstanding rhyth

Out now – and moving fast! 🚨

A big one from Milanese maestro Inner Lakes. Hell-bent on making 2025 his year, the Kalahari debutant keeps his momentum rolling with another vital release.

This meticulously crafted 4-tracker brims with menace and late-night throb – the spiralling, nocturnal signature that has become his hallmark. Streetwise, upfront, and loaded with pure f*ck-off NRG.

Expect noir-drenched rave suspense, hardware-fuelled torque, and shadow-world intensity. DJ tools with layers of nuance, disembodied vocals pulling you deeper into the dream state, and a razor-sharp balance between function and full-blown dancefloor immersion.

A statement release from an artist firmly at the top of his game. Don’t sleep – copies are already flying.
