Berlin-based sonic wizard Luca Draccar just dropped The Dark Side, a four-track EP that doesn’t just move your body—it messes with your mind. Released on March 8, this emotionally supercharged techno trip is a masterclass in pushing boundaries while keeping things dancefloor-ready.
A Milan-born raver turned multimedia alchemist, Luca Draccar blends raw emotion with glitchy grooves and cinematic textures. He’s not just crafting tracks—he’s building sonic narratives that flirt with darkness and vulnerability, all wrapped in club-ready tension.
The Dark Side hits different. Opener ‘Bad at Love Since Forever’ is a heartbreak anthem on acid—distorted basslines, ghostly synths, and all the feels. ‘Outlaws Division’ takes the wheel next, hammering through rebel territory with overdriven kicks and jagged synths that scream afterparty chaos. Then there’s ‘Reckless Flower’, which flips the script into a dreamstate, pulling neo-romantic vibes through a distorted, supernatural filter. Finally, ‘Branded Your Brain’ signs off with smoky textures and ironic grooves that tease your perception of truth and illusion.
This isn’t techno for the faint-hearted—it’s emotionally raw, wildly produced, and absolutely engineered to move. Draccar’s dedication goes deep—he even took piano lessons to craft the melodies himself. DIY spirit? Check. Club impact? Double check.
If you like your beats with brains, soul, and serious low-end punch, The Dark Side is your new obsession.
