Really cool to see Vincent Neumann give a shout out to DJ Justin Neal’s fantastic track Paused, which we released late last year on SubSensory. Apparently he played it at Bergheim and got a great reaction 🤯🤯🤯

New music alert!!

For fans of deep, funky and dubbed out techno music, the excellent “Refractions” EP from DJ Justin Neal is now available, with a remix by UK artist Sergio Vilas.

More info: SubSensory’s 127th release features the modern, dub techno-inspired sounds of Justin Neal’s Refractions EP, with a remix by UK producer Sergio Vilas. This superb EP has received early support from the likes of Laurent Garnier, Exos, Colin Dale and DJ Murphy, to name a few.

SubSensory is a North American techno and electro label based in Portland, Oregon and founded by Jack Coleman, aka JAK, a DJ, producer, organizer and pillar of the Pacific Northwest U.S. techno scene for over 25 years.

Justin Neal is a DJ, producer and prolific Twitch streamer with roots in the infamous 1990s Midwest rave scene. Now based in Portland, OR, Justin’s releases on SubSensory and Detroit’s Bang Tech 12 have propelled his music to new heights. His 2024 “Clap Your Hands” EP garnered over 26K plays on Apple Music and support from the likes of Richie Hawtin and Laurent Garnier. His summer 2025 EP, “Tired of It,” was charted by Perc and saw plays on dancefloors and radio shows across the globe.

The Refractions EP explores a modern approach to dub- and Detroit-styled techno, featuring four timeless tracks that range from the 140 BPM chord-laden funker, “Refractions,” to the 126 BPM dub techno groove of “Hollowed.”

On remix duty, UK producer Sergio Vilas returns to SubSensory with the funky techno sound that earned his past releases countless plays by the legendary DJ Carl Cox, along with many others. His remix is reminiscent of classic techno labels like Jericho and Intec.
