Amplify Series - Techno, Electro, and more

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @theownlife for the 132d installment of Amplify Series.

Always committed to the music and with the ability to smoothly transmit the different levels of intensity, with a tireless study of the diversity of rhythms and the different genres within dance music, Leiras has grown to be one to keep an eye on in the international techno scene.
Born in the north of Spain, he came across clubs like ‘La Real’ and ‘El Jardin’ in early 2000. Two clubs important to the history of techno music within Spain, and more so, also important to Leiras musical background, as they influenced him and his artistic career in a fundamental way.

Being the mind behind ‘Ownlife’, a record label focusing on the most visceral, hypnotical and sometimes experimental techno music, he created a home mainly for his own productions, but also a space with the freedom to express his own particular vision of dance music. With this in mind, Ownlife is also a platform to showcase Leiras favorites producers at the time.
As a DJ he is influenced by different styles in electronica, which clearly shows at the time when he propounds his own sound from the DJ booth. He always establishes a bridge in between the past – the purity of the first works of pioneer techno producers, and the future – visible in the advanced character of the vanguardist productions of different artists these days. This compromise with the continuous music digging, the one created in the past by authentic visionaries, is what inspired him to create the sublabel “SELD” based on one single concept; to perpetuate the legacy of some of techno’s pioneers, and bringing back the attention to music that keeps the pure character and commitment it was created with.

During the past years, Leiras' work has brought him to clubs all over the world, from Europe to Asia and all the way to South America, playing at respected clubs and festivals.

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @galaxian for the 131st installment of Amplify Series.

Defiant, unorthodox and unmistakably unique, Galaxian’s cyber-futurist aesthetic and philosophy have captivated audiences worldwide through searing performances at Boiler Room, Dekmantel, Resident Advisor and Tresor to name a few.

Counting Aphex Twin, Helena Hauff, DJ Stingray and Mary Anne Hobbs among his admirers, Galaxian has made a crucial contribution to modern electronic music - deconstructing its foundations while driving it forcefully into cybernetic, unexplored territory.

Widely recognised as a pioneer and innovator of a singular cybertech sound, Galaxian fuses advanced sound design, machine funk and the physical impact of hard techno. His inventiveness is matched by a rare ability to continuously mine new rhythmic systems and intricately engineered arrangements.

With over a decade of authoritative releases on labels including Ilian Tape, Tresor, Micron Audio and Return To Disorder, his catalogue stands as both uncompromising and future-focused.

Forged through years behind the decks before turning to production, Galaxian’s DJ sets are technically driven and uncompromising - defined by intense, powerful performances built on sharp mixing, rapid cutting and decisive control of energy. Grounded in core DJ techniques delivered with modern precision and impact, his sets are tightly woven, dynamic and relentless.

For the Seventh release, "Terraforming The Unwanted", Marthial delivers 5 original tracks to write the seventh lines of Sotor's story.

Marthial's dj sets are a connection between tradition, history and technological innovation, mixing techno and soul drums, creating a dark and cold atmosphere but sometimes softened by sounds reminiscent of french electro.
Alessandro Vaccari aka Marthial, born in Milan in 1992, is a DJ and producer resident at Tempio del Futuro Perduto and the founder of the label 24/H Records. A professional DJ inspired by the Detroit techno scene, he blends techno, soul drums, and French electro influences to craft intense and introspective sets.

He has performed at renowned international venues such as Tresor and RSO in Berlin, Basis in Utrecht, Fold in London, and Osnova in Kyiv, bringing with him a sonic vision rooted in passion and exploration.

In 2018, he took part in the founding of Tempio del Futuro Perduto, Milan’s first independent cultural space where techno intersects with social and artistic initiatives. Within this space, he also launched 24/H Records, a label that challenges artists to produce electronic music in just 24 hours, featuring names such as Stanislav Tolkachev, Nastia, Fabrizio Rat, Joton, and many others.

MARTHIAL ”TERRAFORMING THE UNWANTED EP” lands on SOTOR - سطور on 09th January 2026.

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @mervhh for the 130th installment of Amplify Series.

With a magnetic presence and an unmistakable sonic identity, she is one of the most compelling new voices emerging from Europe's underground. Now based in Warsow, she channels intensity, groove and precision into DJ sets that ignite the dance floor with raw kinetic force. Her energy isn't aggressive, it's surgica. Hard groove, but with architecture.

Her footprint across Europe's club circuit speaks for itself: Tresor, Club Ost, HOR Berlin, Smolna, Teletech, Liquid Club Malta, LeBlock Marseille, Gamescom Cologne, Crest Kiev, and Basel. Each performance reveals her ability to read the room and bend it to her will shifting momentum, building tension, then releasing into pure movement.

Inside the studio, a different world emerges: slow-burning cinematic textures, experimental soundscapes, and compositions built for film, advertising, and gaming. It's the other side of her artistry not just rhythm, but world-building.

Her debut EP SELEM was released on Polish imprint The Behind The Stage, followed by Against Ignorance on Georgia's Innergate Records. Most recently, she joined forces with Lesser Of for an EP on Vast Perception.
She also co-owns Lethal Curse, a forward-thinking label dedicated to championing the next wave of underground sound.

Beat by beat, room by room, she is shaping a narrative that reaches far beyond the booth.
