HAVEN co-founder Keepsakes returns to his home imprint with Dystopian Euphoria, a five-track EP set for release on April 10, 2026. Known for his uncompromising productions and distinctive sonic identity, the artist continues to push the boundaries of club music with a record that is both intense and playfully unorthodox.
Following a string of releases on labels such as KAOS/OAKS, Turbo Recordings, Perc Trax, and Boys Noize Records, Keepsakes once again sharpens his vision on HAVEN, delivering a body of work that blends warped, alien sound design with driving, groove-led rhythms. Dystopian Euphoria expands his sonic palette into more jacking and fluid territories, while maintaining the raw edge that defines his output.
Premiering here is “Hollow And Suited,” a standout cut that leans into darker and more ritualistic territory. Built around tribal-leaning drum patterns, the track unfolds through layers of resonant, mutated vocals and evolving textures that create a sense of tension and unease. The result is a hypnotic, late-night tool designed for immersive dance floor moments.
Across the EP, Keepsakes balances intensity with detail, weaving together gritty atmospheres, playful experimentation, and tightly controlled energy. From the distorted vocoder explorations of “Vocoding Your Nan Out Of Existence” to the rolling groove of “Get To Know It In The Flesh” and the jacking rhythms of “Ready2BeginWot?”, each track expands the EP’s sonic palette in its own way. Closing with the swung grooves of “Corvid House,” Dystopian Euphoria captures a producer fully in control of his craft, while still pushing into new territory.
