Berlin queer collective Hypersoft kick off their new label with a 15-track VA raising funds for trans youth and a launch party at OHM.
The collective, run by Berlin and London-based DJs TPR and DJ TEETH, emerged onto the scene in 2022 and is known for balancing breakthrough and established artists from the new school of the progressive landscape with legends and innovators of the scene, a resident lineup that includes Cromby, Bambi and Bliss Inc. and guests ranging from Sunju Hargun and Spekki Webu to nd_baumecker and Jane Fitz.
Their first release as a label follows the same principle: Adam Pits, Angel D’lite, Bliss Inc., Cromby, D. Tiffany & Dugong, DJ TEETH, Desire, Dylan Forbes, E-Talking, Eoin DJ, Frederik Tollund, Inner Zone, Kasper Marott, Lisene and Running Hot all contribute to a VA that represents the nexus point where multiple axes of the current club landscape converge. Futuristic neo-prog and razor-sharp tech house, heavy progressive rollers and massive dancefloor bombs, percussive acid workouts and lush, synth-driven HD prog, neo-trance vocal euphoria, feel-good house, dreamy breaks and UK rave nostalgia: It’s all here, colliding on a VA that explores the spaces inbetween and a vision of things to come.
A number of artists from the VA will be on hand for the party on July 13 – the lineup won’t be announced, but expect it to be up to their usual standards.
100% of the profits from the VA and launch party go directly to Transgender Europe and Mermaids, two organisations doing essential work supporting and advocating for trans and non-binary youth in Europe and the UK.
