“FAULTLINE” is a record born in motion, and a sonic universe born from world-spanning collaboration drawn together through timing, friendship, and a shared pulse that cuts across continents. What began as scattered sessions and late-night exchanges has converged into something vivid and whole: a project grounded by its release in Amsterdam, at midnight, on the eve of ADE, during OT301’s Alternative Amsterdam Dance Event night at OT301, hosted by The Tabula Rasa Record Company, and Amsterdam native, Malvae – a gathering of kindred artists who helped bring this work to life.
Each track on FAULTLINE captures a different collision of worlds: the long-brewing chemistry of “INSANE” with AUST; the sudden electricity of “HOLLOW” with GANZ; the temporal bridge of “TREMOR” with uramaki and “RHYTHM REIGNS” with Bastian Benjamin all map a shifting terrain together, telling a story that moves through time but feels, and is, tethered by a singular, kinetic energy.
This ethos bleeds into every layer of the release from its sound to its artwork and even its timing. Created in tandem with visual artist Etienne Cootjans, the imagery behind FAULTLINE distills the tension of moments right before they unfold: a tear about to fall, a candle about to extinguish, an hourglass on the edge of empty. The world holding its breath before the break.
As the clock strikes midnight in Amsterdam on release day (24, Oct, 2025), FAULTLINE will surface for the first time as a shared moment and as a convergence of artists, sound, and light marking (appropriately, we think) the threshold of the worlds biggest dance music gathering.
