The Spanish electronic scene we’ve come to know is not driven by spectacle. It’s built on continuity. People showing up for each other, projects evolving quietly, ideas passing hands without losing their edge. "Creatividad Artificial" sits firmly in that lineage. It brings together three figures who have helped define the scene's tone over time: F-on, Estrato Aurora, and ABSIS. Madrid, Valencia, Barcelona. Released on Alpenglühen, the four-track EP introduces Atàvic, the new collaborative project between Estrato Aurora and ABSIS. The project feels like a continuation of a conversation already in motion, with both artists allowing their signatures to overlap rather than collapse into a single voice. In Creatividad Artificial groove is treated less as a stylistic choice than a structural constant, tuned and recalibrated across electro, techno, and halftime forms, always nudged by dub logic.
Our premiere, “Anacreonic,” builds slowly, carried by a deep, rolling groove that stays grounded while its details shift around it. Dub chords hover, percussion subtly reshapes itself, and a hypnotic sequence carries the track forward without ever being a focal point. It’s measured and confident. This is not peak-time rhetoric or background drift. It sits comfortably in the middle ground where movement becomes intuitive. Anacreonic doesn’t try to impress on first contact, but grows stronger the longer it’s allowed to breathe.
"Creatividad Artificial" offers a window into the creative process of these masterminds. Atàvic will perform their live set for the first time at Mostra 2026. Like we needed more reasons to be at Mostra this year! "Creatividad Artificial" is coming out on January 30th as a vinyl-only release.

In a moment where festivals blur into a constant scroll of names and posters, Ouroboros has always felt anchored to something more elemental. Tucked into the Cantal wilderness, it operates like a temporary ecosystem, built on trust between artists, crews, and the land itself. Toé sits at the center of that orbit. As a DJ, producer, and co-architect of the festival’s identity, her presence carries a quiet authority. The same sensibility runs through Soma Animae, her personal platform that reads like a field journal, and through Chimaera, the Eyes Wide Open radio show she curates for LYL. Spend a little time with her work and the through-line becomes clear. Nature is not an aesthetic reference point here. It is the operating system.
That context matters when listening back to her set from this year’s Ouroboros, now part of our Delayed with series. Peak hour on paper, but the usual signals are intentionally bypassed. Instead of release-driven drama, Toé builds a flexible structure where tension is constantly adjusted, stretched, and rebalanced. Acid pressure appears and dissolves, depth gives way to propulsion, grooves are allowed to settle before being nudged elsewhere. Ouroboros’ connection to its surroundings has always shaped how sound functions there, and Toé navigates that dynamic instinctively. The forest is not a backdrop but a participant, absorbing and reflecting the pulse coming from the sound system. For those two hours, the exchange holds steady, neither side dominating. What you hear in this set is that equilibrium, electronic music meeting the physical world without either one blinking first.
“We circle around and around and around.
As if dancing with the fire’s breath.
An ever-turning wheel,
Like a flame spiraling itself into endless spaces.”
