Dekmantel has just unveiled “A Rhythm Protects One,” a compelling various artists compilation that spotlights a fresh and textured wave of electronic music innovators. Curated by the masterful Call Super and released on October 3, 2025, this collection is a deep, immersive dive into contemporary sounds, eclectically blending house, techno, and experimental electronic styles.
The compilation is a showcase of diverse sonic identities, with each artist contributing a unique piece to the rhythmic puzzle. The journey opens with Conny Slipp’s atmospheric and intricate “Blue Sun I” before Cleo’s “Four Yolks” layers rich melodies over steady, compelling beats. Louis Lupin presents “Lululu,” a captivating exploration of rhythm and texture, while Ondo Fudd’s “Limelight” combines hypnotic grooves with subtle melodic shifts. The ambient side is explored by Clam1’s “Milkyways,” which beautifully envelops listeners in cosmic tones. Rounding out the diversity, Eye Gritt delivers “Same Battles,” a track rich in rhythmic complexity, and DJ Flowerdew’s “Suede” offers a smooth, engaging energy.
At the heart of the compilation, Call Super himself contributes two standout tracks. His signature blend of emotive rhythms and expansive sound design is perfectly captured in “Waterways” and the evocative closing track, “Mothertime.” His curation here masterfully draws attention to both emerging talents and established artists, weaving a cohesive and essential narrative across the entire tracklist.
This album is a crucial addition for fans of forward-thinking electronic music and anyone following the Dekmantel label’s cutting-edge catalog. “A Rhythm Protects One” is available now for streaming and download through Dekmantel and Call Super’s Bandcamp pages.
