NEJ (COL) released Ijusstråle [CHR354] on Concepto Hipnótico on 16 February 2026, a seven-track EP that pairs original deep-techno pieces with three international remixes by Bruno Ledesma, Sam Wilson and Hod. The release lands as a full Bandcamp package and appears on the label’s SoundCloud playlist, positioning NEJ’s material inside Concepto Hipnótico’s ongoing catalog run.

Bandcamp’s descriptive copy frames the record plainly: “NEJ makes his debut on Concepto Hipnótico with an EP that explores the deeper and more atmospheric side of techno.” The page continues with production detail, noting that “through immersive pads, drones, tribal percussion and minimal structures, the release unfolds as a journey from introspection to dancefloor-driven energy,” language that matches the EP’s seven-minute title cut and longer, meditative moments elsewhere on the record.

The Bandcamp tracklist and durations are explicit: Aves De Lo Profundo, 04:48; Klock, 05:56; Klock (Bruno Ledesma Remix), 05:38; Bruce, 05:53; Bruce (Sam Wilson Remix), 06:24; Ijusstråle, 07:00; Ijusstråle (Hod Remix), 05:20. Each track on the Bandcamp release shows an individual “buy track” option and the release is catalogued as CHR354 in the label’s discography.

Remix credits carry label-side resonance: Bruno Ledesma is credited for the Klock remix and is also identified on the label page as founder/manager, “Techno record label from Argentina, founded and managed since 2012 by Bruno Ledesma aka Ledd.” Bandcamp’s copy describes Ledesma’s contribution as “bringing a more rhythmic and dynamic interpretation,” while Sam Wilson and HOD are said to expand the record into “more spatial and fragmented territories.” Note that capitalization varies: the descriptive text shows “HOD (COL)” while the track title appears as “Hod Remix.”

The Bandcamp page lists the license as “all rights reserved.” The page also surfaced an odd price fragment reading “€177.94 EUR or more (90% OFF)” alongside standard shopping cart UI text such as “subtotal | USD | taxes calculated at checkout,” an artifact present in the scraped view of the release.

Concepto Hipnótico situates Ijusstråle in recent label chronology: CHR351 Sintergica (Dec 2025), CHR352 Push (Jan 2026), CHR353 Forget (Jan 2026), and CHR354 Ijusstråle (Feb 2026). The label describes itself as having “13 uninterrupted years releasing hypnotic electronic music by artists from all over the world” and links to Facebook, SoundCloud and residentadvisor.net on its Bandcamp page.

Early platform engagement on the label’s SoundCloud playlist shows modest per-track counts captured on the listing: Aves De Lo Profundo 41, Klock 38, Klock (Bruno Ledesma Remix) 39, Bruce 24, Bruce (Sam Wilson Remix) 24, Ijussträle/Ijusstråle 23, Ijusstråle (Hod Remix) 31. The EP is available for listening and purchase on Concepto Hipnótico’s Bandcamp and is posted on the label’s SoundCloud; the Bandcamp page provides individual buy options for each of the seven tracks.
