- updated:2026-09-04
Led by a mutant acid techno cut co-produced by SUNJU HARGUN and DJ MARIA., this selection zeroes in on psychedelic, no-nonsense immersive techno vibes! The second installment in the curator-led compilation series from THE THIRD ROOM, the techno frontier out of Essen, Germany, is helmed by Berlin's key modern techno artist D.DAN.
Track List

A new entry in the curation series from THE THIRD ROOM, a crucial imprint that has previously lined up a stellar cast of veterans from OSCAR MULERO and EFDEMIN to BEN SIMS and KiNK! This time it's handled by D.DAN, a talent carving out his own path in the modern techno scene with a singular sensibility, known for deep techno work as FUGAL and a background as a drummer. The obvious highlight is "Gensou" (sample1), a collaboration between Bangkok SIAMESE TWINS psychedelic master SUNJU HARGUN and the globally rising DJ MARIA. — a psychedelic groover that reins in a tenacious acid loop while letting percussion and sound effects drift subliminally through the mix! From the music itself to the tracklist, the deliberately tight genre focus makes for a compilation that captures a true aesthetic sense and the very essence of techno. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
