Heading into February, we’ve got the new EP of TV Noise covered along with some lackluster psy-trance tracks from Ummet Ozcan and Alok & Timmy Trumpet so let’s just jump into it.

For today, we will be talking about the new official release from the luminary
75/100 • Hitting follow-up for “Krypton” • Minimal yet does not slack due to powerful signature sound • Slightly predictable structure, but compatible for festival nonetheless This Tuesday was the date for the release of another untamed beast, crafted by none other than the Dutch mastermind Ummet Ozcan. We haven’t had any disappointment so far with this Amsterdam
