Simina Grigoriu kicks off 2025 with a powerhouse release, teaming up with Italian techno maestro Hollen for the ‘Remote Control’ EP – out now on her imprint, Kuukou Records. Packed with three hypnotic tracks – ‘Remote Control,’ ‘Kaoss Physics,’ and ‘Wrong Or Right’ – this EP delivers a high-octane dose of cutting-edge techno built to dominate global dancefloors.

The title track kicks off with commanding beats, hypnotic synths, and sharp industrial hits. Digital, robotic vocals cut through the mix, adding an edgy touch as the track’s relentless drive pulls listeners deep into its magnetic orbit. Following on, ‘Kaoss Physics’ takes a deeper dive, layering glitchy textures, intricate synth complexities and rolling momentum to create a darker, moodier vibe. Closing out the EP, ‘Wrong Or Right’ drives forward with fast-paced, heady rhythms and crisp percussion at its core, while a gritty, vocal sample adds an extra layer of intensity. With its industrial edge and feral spirit, the track is primed for vast warehouse spaces, delivering pure dancefloor dynamism.
Following the success of her final 2024 offering ‘Resident Frequency’ – a tribute to Berlin’s vibrant rave culture – Simina’s latest project reinforces her reputation as one of techno’s most forward-thinking artists. With Hollen’s contemporary production style blending effortlessly with Simina’s signature sound, the ‘Remote Control’ EP strikes the perfect balance between innovation and tradition. It honours the raw, refined roots of techno while pushing the genre forward, delivering a bold and captivating experience that resonates on every level.
