Released September 14, 2026 as free (cc) digital download and in beautiful limited CD edition.

Unterm Rad is the electronic music of media artist and producer Mike Slansky. His music is information-rich and crafted with painstaking detail, characterized by bold, complex percussion with deep layers of texture and atmosphere.

An early recruit of Tympanik Audio, Slansky went on to co-found the Point Source Electronic Arts record label and creative community. Alongside this work, he is a performer in the groups REKT, Mesaverde, and Tokataur, known for frequent collaborations and remixes with friends & fellow creators: Hecq (Ben Lukas Boysen), Ginormous, Anatoly Grinberg (Tokee), Mark Spybey (DVOA), Access to Arasaka, The Fellow Passenger, Room of Wires, among many more.

And now after a warm welcome to the roster, Mahorka presents Unterm Rad's latest album, "The Getaway". Composed entirely of short instrument clips & other sounds provided in Point Source's "Genome" sample kit, each carefully edited, processed and sequenced, evolving into something new. No synthesizers, AI or any other sound sources were employed in making this, in the spirit of the "Genome" open source project.

"The Getaway" is a series of rapid, erratic chases through tightly packed, dim narrow alleyways, with danger waiting around every jagged corner. But press on, the way out is through.

Now available from Mahorka: 13-track CD / digital album, featuring remixes by Access to Arasaka, Evaluation Copy, Vaag, Feederwire, Hexalyne, and Cole.
