Simulate heavyweight 'TH;EN' makes a forceful return to the network with SML026 - Ice Veins, a three-track EP built with clear intent. The opening track, ‘Ice Veins’ with Carlo Whale, is an injection of raw energy. Aggressive sound design and a punishing low-end deliberately collide to create a fierce peak-time record. ‘Run Free’ with Mia Mendi takes a different but equally powerful approach. The track is built around a more tech house inspired, melodic bassline that anchors the surrounding elements in harmony. Gritty and raw acid lines then circle around a distinctive energising vocal hook to magnetise the dancefloor. The closing ID, ‘Back to the Funk’ functions as an engine in any set list. The signature ‘TH;EN’ low-end conducts the flow of crowd, forcing listeners to obey the command and get ‘Back to the Funk’

Global electronic powerhouses Argy and Massano unite on “WAIT,” a driving yet groovy, peak-time weapon built around a commanding vocal and powerful rhythmic momentum. Shaped by its modern melodic identity, dancefloor functionality and controlled tension, the track has already proven its impact across international stages, translating seamlessly from expansive festival settings to intimate, dark club environments. Released via Massano’s Simulate, “WAIT” is a clear statement of the label’s continued growth and its forward-facing approach to the melodic techno scene.

The title track “Making G’s” leads with an addictive, groove driven bassline with percussive elements sitting neatly around it, keeping everything moving without overcrowding the mix. The vocal focuses around “making Gs”, which feels like a subtle nod to a world obsessed with financial gain, something that becomes meaningless in a post-apocalyptic simulation. The break introduces a range of tension-building elements, gradually raising the energy to its peak before snapping back into the track’s signature groove. The second track takes the opposite approach in meaning to “Making G’s”. Where the first plays on finance and identity, “Stop Looking At Me” pulls away from it. The groove remains pivotal to the EP’s identity, but on this track, a raw and distorted lead synth adds a more aggressive edge. The “eyes on the dance floor” vocal says it all, less about attention and more about staying locked into the music.
