For the first chapter of The Third Room’s curator-led series, @oscarmulerooficial builds a narrative shaped by tension and release, moving between introspective depth and physical intensity. His selection is guided by a shared sense of intention, where atmosphere and texture gradually give way to more driving, embodied forms of techno. The VA brings together collaborations with @dvs1hush , @luigi.tozzi.music and @__isabelsoto , alongside a solo contribution from Mulero himself. Each artist adds a distinct layer to the release, from deep, immersive reduction to more spatial, evolving and functional approaches, while remaining connected through a coherent sonic direction. Across both the release and the floor programme, the artists are linked by a common sensibility in sound and development. The result is a continuous narrative that feels like different chapters of the same story unfolding in real time. 📹 by @nickdevucht Track-ID: Oscar Mulero & Luigi Tozzi - Seven

The live recording of @humansafarimusic at Stone Techno Festival 2025 is now online. Recorded at the Salzlager Floor at Zeche Zollverein, Human Safari delivered a fast, groove-led set shaped by polyrhythmic patterns. His sound merges raw techno with jazz-informed structures, driven by tight percussion, rolling basslines, and shifting sequences that evolve in real time. Focused, kinetic, and precise, the performance highlights his approach to rhythm as a central force. Listen to the full set via link in bio. 📷 by @xsanjay 📹 by @koldaq

@temudo_hayes ’ Top 5 selections outline a focused stretch of contemporary techno defined by reduction, pressure and forward-driven structure. @glaskinofficial – “Blended” opens with a tightly constructed groove built on layered rhythm work and a controlled sense of density. @_fresko___pt – “Air Viper” follows with a leaner, more direct momentum, keeping the energy pointed and functional. @makaton.music – “She Hunts” shifts into a heavier register, where weight and persistence define the pacing. @arkantechno – “Subway” reduces further into stripped repetition and linear progression, holding its tension through restraint. @dxrvo – “Berg” closes the selection in a colder, minimal register, relying on space and steady motion.

Young Marco at STF24. An exercise in sophisticated eclecticism and fluid progression. Vibrant synth textures and rhythmic versatility, prioritizing sustained euphoria over conventional peak-time tropes. 📹 by @wheretodance 📷 by @xsanjay

Sunday at STF25 saw the Salzlager floor pivot toward a fluid, genre-defying energy, trading linear focus for technical experimentation and high-velocity rhythms. @ccl_url b2b @priori_tize opened with a masterclass in atmospheric depth, navigating slippery breakbeats and psychedelic textures. Soft Crash shifted the room into muscular territory, weaving „Italo Body Music“ through the industrial space with EBM-tinged tension. The momentum sharpened as @__carista took control, injecting the floor with her signature soul-flecked energy and a raw, hardware-heavy swing. The night closed with a high-speed collision from @alarico___ b2b @objekttt , whose surgical B2B blended fast-paced funk with bass-heavy deconstruction: a relentless, technical finale for the Salzlager. 📹 by @koldaq

@dold_arsenik steps into the next T3R Hyperspace episode with a sound that feels grounded and intentional. Closely connected to The Third Room through his Metamorphism EP, his work reflects the label’s focus on depth, restraint and narrative-driven techno. The live set recording unfolds with a quiet intensity, building from minimal structures into something more immersive and physical. This episode captures Dold in motion, offering a perspective that sits firmly within The Third Room’s sonic identity while still pushing its edges forward.

We asked various artists how they experienced the festival. This is what stayed with them: Aspace that feels thoughtfully put together, by people who genuinely care about the scene and each other. There’s a sense of giving back, of showing up for more than just your own set. The program moves across different sounds, making it worth arriving early and staying curious. It’s the kind of place where you discover new artists without trying, just by being there and listening. 📹 by @kareem.ice Track ID: Off/Grid - Play no games

The live recording of @kerrie_music at Stone Techno Festival 2025 is now online. Recorded at the Eisbahn Floor at Zeche Zollverein, Kerrie’s set was a clinical display of hardware-driven techno. Her sound, rooted in raw, modular synthesis, prioritizes rhythmic architecture over melodic distraction. Defined by metallic textures, syncopated percussion, and high-velocity drive, the performance maintained a stripped-back, functional intensity that cut through the industrial space. It was a masterclass in structural tension and analog grit, leaning into the uncompromising, dark-room energy of her signature style.
