Rising Middle Eastern electronic music force Rolbac kicks off 2025 with his latest EP, ‘Artefakt I: Noisy Thoughts,’ out now on Senso Sounds, the prestigious underground imprint curated by Oliver Huntemann.

This three-track release showcases Rolbac’s signature hard-hitting rhythms, gripping vocal elements, and high-intensity buildups, reaffirming his place as a dynamic innovator in the techno scene.

The EP opens with ‘Noisy Thoughts,’ a driving 126 BPM peak-time techno cut in A Major, packed with pulsating energy and hypnotic layers. Complementing the original is a remix by Waltervelt, who brings his own dark, textured twist, shifting the key to A Minor while maintaining the track’s relentless intensity.

Adding further depth to the EP is ‘He Never Got Married,’ a track that encapsulates Rolbac’s ability to weave storytelling into his sonic landscapes, blending melancholic atmospheres with thundering beats.

With ‘Artefakt I: Noisy Thoughts,’ Rolbac cements his status as a leading force in underground techno, seamlessly merging his musical roots with a forward-thinking approach. This EP is a must-listen for those who crave cutting-edge, peak-time techno.
