An underground anthem combining 90s nostalgia, dark vocal stabs, and explosive bass-driven energy

Electronic music powerhouses TH;EN and DAMEN join forces for their electrifying new single “XTC” on 1001 Recordings. Blending raw 90s rave influences with futuristic production, their new track delivers an adrenaline-fueled ride built on metallic rave hits, aggressive leads, and a thunderous low-end.




With “XTC” TH;EN and DAMEN channel the rebellious energy of early rave but reimagine it with cutting‑edge production. Dark vocal stabs, rave‑infused synth hits and a dominant contemporary bass foundation give the track its unmistakable identity. Created for maximum tension and release, its metallic rave elements blend seamlessly with a weighty bass foundation that instantly transports listeners into a 90s‑meets‑now rave moment.
"XTC channels the raw spirit of 90s rave, reinvented as a modern set weapon driven by standout dark vocal stabs, rave-tinged synth hits, and a heavy, contemporary low-end built for peak-time floors." - TH;EN
"XTC is a super bass heavy track which is in your face and that always makes it special to play live. Everybody on the dance floor loses their minds when they hear the drops and synths." - DAMEN
The collaboration took shape when TH;EN approached DAMEN with the initial concept. The idea quickly evolved through months of creative exchange, leading to a seamless fusion of their individual sound signatures.

A track that seamlessly blends groove-driven energy with genre-crossing creativity

Acclaimed electronic producers TH;EN and Pavel Petrov join forces for their powerful new release, ‘Move’, released on 1001 Recordings today. A track that seamlessly blends groove-driven energy with genre-crossing creativity, ‘Move’ is a true meeting point between two distinct yet complementary sonic identities. Built around a striking vocal line and anchored by a meticulously designed low end, the track is equally suited for intimate club settings and large festival stages. With ‘Move’, the duo captures the excitement of collaboration – combining styles, bridging genres, and delivering a track that stands out with both character and precision.




Both artists bring a wealth of experience to the collaboration: TH;EN has carved out a reputation for deep, melodic productions that push the boundaries of house and techno, while Pavel Petrov, known for his releases on key European imprints, has consistently delivered groove-led, forward-thinking tracks designed for maximum impact.
TH;EN: ⁠”What makes ‘Move’ stand out for me is the combination of the vocals and the groove. They complement each other in a way that gives the track its own character. ⁠I really respect Pavel as both an artist and a producer. He sent me the first idea for ‘Move’ and I immediately felt inspired. I knew how I could build on it. What made it exciting was bringing two different genres together and finding that middle ground that works for both of us.
Pavel Petrov: “I would say the low end of the track hits perfectly on every sound system – either a club or a big stage festival. In a world full of artists with ghost producers behind them, I believe I can recognize a good producer even online. Enzo is a great example of that, which is why I asked him to collab on a beat of mine I still had no idea how to arrange. He did an amazing job, and I’m sure we’ll collaborate again in the near future.”
1001Tracklists and Tomorrowland Music – two of the most influential forces in electronic music – have recently joined forces to launch 1001 Recordings, a brand-new record label with the dancefloor at its heart. This exciting collaboration aims to elevate a new generation of dance music by championing music from the global electronic music culture and the 1001Tracklists community. 1001 Recordings will focus exclusively on collaborative releases in its launch phase, creating milestone moments and stories around each track.

[item value="10"]Massano, TH;EN, Carlo Whale - Touch Me [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Massano, TH;EN, and Carlo Whale deliver their own melodic house-infused melodic techno rendition of the iconic Ibiza house classic “Touch Me.” Their 124 BPM track features dark, moody basslines, punchy metallic kicks, rough drums, and atop, dark dystopian synthy hooks that evoke a melodramatic atmosphere. The breakdown is atmospheric, characterized solely by an ambient sonic soundscape, with the compelling female vocals highlighted by dark, moody synthy stabs. The climax maintains the same driving, dominating, hypnotic futuristic sci-fi soundscape, creating a distinctly cold and distant effect that has proven effective in numerous melodic techno DJ sets globally. It undoubtedly stands as one of the significant anthems that will commence 2025 with grace. #PureGold - Love It [/content]

Did you hear about the restaurant on the moon?
I heard the food was good but it had no atmosphere.

We are thrilled to welcome TH;EN to Odd One Out, with his forthcoming remix to Yotto's 'Meadow'. A staple in the progressive and melodic house scene, TH;EN has seen recent support from Solomun, Adriatique, Kevin de Vries, and many more.

Enjoy! Out 15th of June 2023

[item value="10"] Yotto, Sansa - Meadow (TH;EN Remix) [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Yotto & Sansa superb Meadow was released as part of Yotto's latest album. Now it get the well deserved TH;EN Remix that is truly awesome and will be welcomed by many. Emotional melodic progressive house with pulsating basslines, thumping drums and strong driving kick while on top dark moody synths and haunting strings become the the finest soundbed for the whispering and truly magical vocals that are chopped and twisted and become part of the instrumentation of this very highly emotional and very hair raising track. Full of club drive and top sound design this new remix takes the original to higher mind blowing level without doubts. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
