$20.50

RELEASE DATE: 9/4/2026
Sophisticated electro-techno hybrids occupy an incredibly dangerous space. One false move and you corner listeners into an unsolicited conversation about "gain staging." The four tracks on the vinyl EP thread the needle in thrilling fashion, and then use that needle to stab at the sweet spot between sentient cell tower admin software vibes and the kind of architecture hot people like. Extrawelt are fast becoming a Turbo Recordings staple, and don't think the globalist EDM cabal hasn't taken notice.

Turbo presents you with this pair of decidedly modern bangers from international supergroup Groovedeep, comprised of Toronto's Ciel and DC's James Bangura and Jackson Ryland. "Funk Solo" packs 145 beats into each and every minute of a delirious techno mindbeast, with remixes from icons such as Shed, Batu, and Mark Broom taking the vibe in all the right various directions. Meanwhile, the bottom of the B-side is a "Big Bass Mix" for those who are compelled to slather themselves in bass-boost ultrasound gel and nestle into the club sub-woofer.

TURBO 251EP
|
Following their widely-acclaimed album Union, JUNO-nominated duo ÈBONY rematerialize on the dancefloor with the otherworldly Shades of Meridian EP, projecting a waking futurist dream haunted by echoes of Detroit techno, Chicago house, South African melodies, and the rich mythology of Ancient Toronto. Opener "Break My Skin" explores a hidden pocket of after-hours techno space-time with an ethereal vocal by James Baley, leading into the tense, disembodied jack of "Forever." Next, "Dull Side First" rides a spectral break through a sepulchral warehouse trip, "RIFT" invokes peak-time witchcraft, and closer "My Daylight" entrances even the most self-possessed sound-and-lighting guys to spam the smoke machine until reality itself is occluded.

Turbo Recordings presents the revival of German techno giant Gregor Tresher's Sniper Mode alias with the Riot Gear LP. Riot Gear showcases Tresher's established production genius over 11 cuts of S-tier electro marked by menace, depth, and sharp melodic hooks. Lead single "Blinded by the Dark" is a collaboration with Dave Clarke, the most respected man in electro and perhaps just in general, and features the most punishing drop in recent memory. The album also includes standout vocal contributions from Detroit techno pioneer Jay Denham ("Sanctuary of Vices"), Miami bass kingpin Exzakt ("Echoes From a Wasted Land"), dance-world enigma Kira ("Phantom Pain"), and Turbo favorite Perel ("Modesty Is a Virtue").

TURBO 245EP

The essentially perfect electro programming and vocal performance of the 2023 original leaves virtually no angle for improvement, save for the fact that the 4:20 runtime not enough for the median touring DJ to satisfy their chatbot mistress before they must begin the exacting work of selecting and mixing the next track. As such, the label enlisted producers who could interpret the song from different planes of existence, namely Chilean-German wizard Matias Aguayo, French hardstyle prodigy Krarmpf, German aesthetes Extrawelt, Hamburg electro master DJ MELL G, and Asturian highbrow god Architectural. It is not for Turbo to say which remix corresponds to which realm of human experience, but it is limited to those options.

TURBO 250EP
|
Sascha Funke's massive 2017 hit MZ is one of the most iconic house records ever released on Turbo Recordings, and thus deserving of the ultimate honor: a remix pack reflecting each of the manifold facets of a modern dancefloor classic from the most prestigious and respected angles imaginable. The label called each on many of its titans to anoint MZ into the modern pantheon of club anthems, and you can bet your last Eurobond that they delivered. But also enters some new blood, rising Lithuanian superstar DJ JM. JM is now a deep part of the Turbo family, and he's made the theoretical space between bad-boy cousin and beloved nephew fully his own.

TURBO 247EP

When the people just gotta dance right now, Turbo Recordings will drop everything to fast-track the hottest, rawest music the moment the download links hit. Such is the case with rising Lithuanian superstar DJ JM's moov EP, which contains five tracks so good they needed to hit today's streets today. To ensure the mind-churning efficiency and logistical brilliance needed to pull off this kind of turnaround, label life-giver Tiga slept and tried to bathe at the office for five straight days before being hospitalized for "caring too much." The result is a thrilling showcase for DJ JM, perhaps the label's favorite current artist working in any medium. His grit-rich beats, his melodist's ear, his sound design -- sometimes it's all too much to bear. But bear it and grin you shall, and as you have the night of your life every night from now into the future untold, take a moment to spare a grin in the knowledge that somewhere there is a man hooked up to a Gatorade IV who wanted all of this for you and could not bear for you to wait a moment longer.

TURBO 240EP
|
Hot off his killer 2024 remix of Tiga and Hudson Mohawke's "BUYBUYSELL," UK-New Zealand DJ/Producer Keepsakes makes his proper Turbo debut with the Impossible (Eating the Sun) EP. From merciless techno bangers to caustic track titles that will absolutely shred your preconceived notions about the world and sneer at them as they writhe bleeding on the cold, hard ground, this release validates our label's OCD-level commitment to living on the edge of something at all times. The title track doubles as a massive forest rave bomb AND the No. 1 battle weapon for opening DJs looking to fuck over the headliner, while "Bongo Funeral" reimagines tribal techno as the chief export of a village ruled by emotionally unavailable gremlins. Next, "Snacks at Waco" makes skillful use of a hammering industrial beat to hammer home the importance of loyalty and community, and "Parasocially There for You" deftly soundtracks anxiety dreams about meeting your favorite podcaster. Finally, closer "Nimby Orgy" likely represents the very first sexual aftercare banger. At the end of the day, Turbo takes its marching orders from Harmony, Melody, Rhythm, and Timbre, and to betray even one of its ethereal masters would be tantamount to kicking its own vision square in the nuts.

TURBO 243EP

For months, Black Light Smoke's Control EP has supplied several of label head Tiga's secret DJ weapons. In fact, he's been sneaking out constantly after 9pm to play it out anywhere they'll have him. And it's little wonder to those who wonder why, as the Chicago-born producer's top-flight mix of EBM, electro and Benadryl-soaked vocals has all the right people dancing. Leadoff track "New York Is Dead" eulogizes the famous Big Apple Dance Party Scene in a way that will confuse the many who have embraced the city's thriving "Groove With the Avengers" day rave series in Times Square. But the nihilism-liking doesn't stop there, with the Friday-Til-I-Die attitude of "Black Hole at the Disco," the pleather-dreaded post-cyberpunk of "Last Song Before Sunrise," and the oxygen-deprived acid of "Break Your Back" culminating in the 11:45am-peak-time industrial trance of closer "Mind Control."

TURBO 236EP
|
Years of simmering mutual admiration between Turbo and Architectural finally erupt with Good Night, Whatever That Is, the Asturian producer's first release on the label. Nothing gets Turbo hot and bothered like the prospect of featuring a true artist on the label. The Good Night, Whatever That Is EP imbues the timeless platonic forms of techno with an energy, craft and depth that will feel instantly familiar to anyone who has built a cathedral with their bare hands. And yet the unadulterated power of lead single "Steampunk" and the even-less-adulterated power of "Tubular Funk" confirm that this release also has one foot squarely planted on the secular dance floor, coursing with the searing bio-fluids that drive and torment all sexual beings. Meanwhile, your deep human need for contrast will be sated by the IDM-ambient euphorics of "Eternity Land" and the highbrow breaks of "Rousing Rhythms."

TURBO 228P-EP

Within Tiga's stripped-down electronic funk and Hudson Mohawke's grandiose beats exists a common thread; an idea Tiga expresses as "hardcore romance." Recorded in Los Angeles, these commonalities ebbed and flowed through various recordings, culminating in their debut album -- L'Ecstasy. Turbo revisits the album with a set of club-driven remixes, bringing together Keinemusik's Reznik, Montreal masters Priori & Patrick Holland as Jump Source, and Berghain stalwart Quelza. Pressed loud on a stunning 12" picture disc, featuring imagery from none-other-than Wolfgang Tillmans.

You gotta sweat it up your entire life to earn the right to call your record Grindmaster. Whether you're pulling your life partner in real close and personal on your living room dance floor, or pursuing brain-dead entrepreneurship with every single fiber of your trust fund, The Grind remains an exacting Snake-God, riding humanity face-first into its eternal reward. To this end, everyone at Turbo is grateful beyond words that venerable veteran's veterans Extrawelt are bringing the full bore of their two decades' experience to bear on this slice of genre-defiling excellence. The German due open with the thorax-pummeling EBM of the title track, followed up by the angry electro of "Angry Elektro." And if you think the EP lets up from there, keep listening to find out just how wrong what you think is, because the next track is called "Angry Halibut" and sounds exactly what you're terrified that sounds like. Grindmaster culminates with the goalie-on-acid-fantasy acid banger "Save City" and bottomless warehouse trip-soundtrack "Flunk." Those of you who choose not to support your local record store will be rewarded accordingly, as Extrawelt's own "Drop Outs in Heaven Remix" of "Flunk" is yours as a digital exclusive.

TURBO 224EP

Ambien Baby is the collaborative project by D Tiffany and NAP, which serves as a borderless zone for both friends to channel a freewheeling experimentation with whatever sounds they happen to be jiving with in the moment. Simply put, Ambien Baby is two BFF's letting loose with no rules, just pure freak and joy. The nature of this joint exploration is clearly evident throughout their raucous and varied releases, which have ranged from downtempo to electro and deep into techno and trance regions. Turbo Recordings is delighted to have Ambien Baby landing for their collaborative debut on the label. The Canadian connection bears fruit with the Masa EP, which lifts off from a psychedelic foundation drenched in Latin influence. Across the three original tracks, D Tiffany and NAP shift through percussive breakbeats, dubbed-out techno, and trippy vocal chops a-plenty. Roza Terenzi and DNGDNGDNG provide remixes for the late-night affairs.

After landing in Tiga's recent Boiler Room set, "Feel The Rush" created a full-on ID frenzy prior to release. The original track harnesses a signature Tres vocal over a low-slung LMZgroove. Turbo have enlisted three dance music legends for the remix project: Honey Dijon, Mr. G, and Johnny Aux (of Paranoid London).

Turbo Recordings presents the label debut of Anastasia Kristenen, with her Moments of Inertia EP. Turbo is constantly and violently shocked that exciting techno music is still being made. Escaping the massive shadow of Norway's hip-hop scene, Moments of Inertia captures a sound that evokes nothing but itself, as though Kristenen were recording sub-rosa dimensional machinery at oblique angles and arranging the best parts with the kind of narrative grandeur most techno artists would never dare interrogate. The A1 "I'd Love To Do It" leads with vivacious drum programming and Kristensen's enigmatic vocals setting the stage for "Paradox & Puzzle" which shares a name with Tiga's moderately successful escape room gastropub. The title track closes the show with slamming industrial tones, summarizing Anastasia's bespoke futuristic flow.

The creative partnership between Tiga & Hudson Mohawke expresses a mutual love of "hardcore romance," a liminal state where the bounds between euphoria, melancholy and the raw power of friendship disintegrate completely. Recorded in Los Angeles from 2019-2023, these commonalities ebbed and flowed through various recording sessions, culminating in their debut album -- L'Ecstasy. Originally conceived as a hardcore rave project focusing on bleary-eyed 6am catharsis, the breadth of the project expanded to encompass their shared love of the music surrounding the '90s ravebiome, with chill-out quasi-IDM ambient creating space for the album's tentpole anthems to breathe. Featuring guest appearances by luminaries like Abra, Channel Tres, Elisabeth Troy, and Jesse Boykins III, as well as album artwork by Turner Prizewinning photographer Wolfgang Tillmans, the result is delivered with two friends churning out the kind of music they want to hear, want each other to hear, and hope to hear you wanting to hear too.

TURBO 106RE-EP
|
Turbo celebrates the 10th anniversary of Gesaffelstein's seminal work on the Montreal-based imprint with a long-awaited repress of all three EPs: Variations (TURBO 093RE-EP), Conspiracy Pt. 1 (TURBO 099RE-EP), and Conspiracy Pt. 2. Supremely confident, Gesaffelstein drops the M way down on the lead tracks, drawing out an even heavier sound than on his last records. The slower tempo brings tougher beats and even meaner synth sounds. Incredibly, he's found a way to make his now-familiar palette sound completely fresh again. More clearly than before, one can trace the development of an artist with a very refined musical agenda. "Viol" begins like the tuning of a modernist symphony, a brilliant aesthetic flourish before the track kicks off. "OPR" breaks down into a beautiful, futuristic synth-a-pella that recalls the best of Detroit techno, reminiscent of Dopplereffekt. Finally, on "Conspiracy Origins" -- the only track composed in standard club tempo -- tension builds and builds, waves of rising paranoia and driving rage run straight off a cliff. This is an outro with major attitude, inflected with violence and even contempt. He clearly knows exactly what the crowd wants, but has the good taste and restraint to only give them what he wants, which is, incidentally, what they need.

TURBO 230EP

Martinou lands on Turbo for the very first time, as the Swedish producer connects with Tiga's Montreal-based label following years of mutual admiration. His melancholic sound, dripping in masterfully balanced tones, continues to impact both heady at-home listeners and season club dancers. A pair of albums on Rotterdam's Nous'Klaer Audio have both been on constant rotation throughout the Turbo community, thus adding to the widespread excitement for Martinou's debut on the imprint. The Sheltered Planet is a four-track record at the cross-section of Martinou's bespoke sound and Turbo's historic techno influence. The aptly titled opener "Getting Into It" elevates senses through an exploitative and rising soundscape, flowing right into the beat-driven house cut "I Told You We'd Make It"; crisp drum programming opens way to soaring melodics, with a deeply analog feel to the A2 groover. On the flip, Martinou effortlessly glides through another movement-laden melody, as "Exhilaration" turns the dial ever-so-slightly towards the Swede's take on a peak-time selection ? "The Offering." Rounded yet punchy synth lines ebb and flow from the distance, oozing into the groove by the time the break lifts brings us to the EP's crescendo; a masterful dance track for the finest of dance parties.

TURBO 099RE-EP

2024 restock. Turbo celebrates the 10th anniversary of Gesaffelstein's seminal work on the Montreal-based imprint with a long-awaited repress of all three EPs: Variations (TURBO 093RE-EP), Conspiracy Pt. 1, and Conspiracy Pt. 2 (TURBO 106RE-EP). Gesaffelstein's Variations EP set an all-time record for feedback at Turbo. For a new artist to attract that kind of attention from such a broad cross-section of DJs is extremely special and a clear sign that he's tapped into something very, very big. To the younger generation of clubbers and DJs for whom the funtastic era of 2001-2003 revivalism was a missed experience, Gesaffelstein represents a double-breasted jacket of nostalgia for everything from the power of Industrial and '80s new wave to the Gigolo-glam of early Kittin & the Hacker, Steril, Vitalic, Fixmer, and yes, Tiga. There should be no hesitation in declaring that he has single-handedly updated an entire genre, sharpened the edges, and notably traded in the camp and pastiche that made Electroclash a dirty word for a refined and stylish simplicity. The breakdowns are massive and very French, but never out of order. These are futuristic party bombs which skillfully draw from our favorite dance music of the last 30 years... and add more cowbell!

Turbo celebrates the 10th anniversary of Gesaffelstein's seminal work on the Montreal-based imprint with a long-awaited repress of all three EPs: Variations, Conspiracy Pt. 1 (TURBO 099RE-EP), and Conspiracy Pt. 2 (TURBO 106RE-EP). Every track on Variations is a battle-tested bomb. Gesaffelstein's sound is clearly influenced by new wave and the Gigolo-era electro (2001-2) of fellow Frenchmen The Hacker and David Carretta, but it sounds like a fresh update rather than pastiche, revitalized and refined down to a modern and versatile core. These tracks work in Tiga's festival sets alongside some of the summer's biggest anthems, yet are equally at home in a more underground setting, e.g. Von Party's 5am warm-up before Ivan Smagghe at a London warehouse party. The title track has the most attitude, establishing a palette of dark staccato basslines, crunching hi-hats, hands-in-the-air cowbells and trippy synth leads. "Selected Faces" and "Atmosphere" are arguably even more straightforward club weapons, their breakdowns creating just enough "insanity" without getting annoying, their grooves dropping back in with a cool, restrained power that will win over hiss-weary DJs.

TURBO 219EP

Turbo Recordings present a 12" vinyl release of Tiga's trance pilgrimage to the center of your personal space, There Is No Distance Between Us. Co-produced by Tiga and on-again/off-again musical life partner Jesper Dahlback, the track was originally released digitally as a B-side to the Tiga mega-hit "Easy" and is now available in its glorious physical manifestation with an insane after-hours techno remix from Paris producer u.r. trax, perhaps the first Turbo artist with a Master's Degree in something other than Comparative Tiga Studies. "Yeah, I'm back up in your area," says Tiga from atop the rock-climbing wall inside his virtual panic room. "Something just didn't sit right with me about this track not existing on the material plane. Here I am singing about human connection and not giving you something you can hold in your filthy hands? Anyone who knows me knows I hate hypocrisy, so I had to make things right, vinyl-style. If I could make the world's problems go away by pressing records, I would. And I can, so I will. This is only the beginning."

TURBO 217EP

Turbo Recordings present he latest from executive honcho Tiga, a massive ode to passive-aggressive income remixed by Héctor Oaks, Der Zyklus, and Decius. "No one wants to work their body anymore," says the Montreal merrymaker from atop a throne in the exact shape of a digital wallet. "I get it. Who wants their surplus sweat equity vacuumed up off the dance floor by corporate parasites when the real future's in decentralized skanking? But that's why people in my position -- the top one-percent in terms of nightlife and hospitality take-home pay -- have to offer real benefits to risking it all in the clubs. I'm talking dance-move insurance, competitive drink ticket packages, and -- most of all -- the kind of brick-and-mortar bangers Rhythm Nation was founded upon back in 1814." While gratingly content with the original version, Tiga has nonetheless chosen to flood the marketplace of ideas with a plurality (three) of voices he feels will optimally position this release in today's unforgiving neo-centrist landscape. This stunning grassfed vinyl 12" opens with a remix by Berlin-based vinyl-only DJ Héctor Oaks, who has been described as "operating at the absolute vanguard of rave." Please remember that describing people this way is basically injecting them with Imposter Syndrome. The release also features a remix by Der Zyklus, an alias of Gerald Donald, the epochal genius from Drexciya, Dopplereffekt, Japanese Telecom, Abstract Thought, Zerkalo, Zwischenwelt, and many other fantastic projects. Finally, Decius closes out the EP with all the British mischief you might expect from UK luminaries from Trashmouth Records, Fat White Family, and Paranoid London. "I've designed my entire life around the concept of ease," adds Tiga. "I never wanted to work for a law firm. I wanted to make beats for a law firm. I've always been self-employed, and that why my street cred's off the street charts. And I've let as much of that freedom trickle down to the audience as I can. Because when it comes to music, there's no such thing as an acceptable minimum wage. You gotta know that you gotta give it all you got or you're gonna get got."
