Behind the Melodic House & Techno : Release Notes

DJ 3000 Redefines the Fusion of Detroit Techno and Albanian Identity on New EP Shote With over two decades of pushing boundaries, DJ 3000 returns with Shote a striking new EP that reaffirms his place at the crossroads of Detroit techno and global rhythm. Out soon on Motech Records, Shote is a four-track, limited-edition release pressed onto 12 vinyl with vibrant jacket artwork that reflects both his cultural heritage and sonic evolution. Named after a traditional Albanian folk dance, the title track Shote anchors the record in deep, ancestral roots while remaining forward-facing, raw, and emotionally resonant. Shote balances past, present, and future in equal measure. Ive been making records for over 20 years, but I still approach every release like its my first. With Shote, I wanted to honor where I come from without the music sounding nostalgic or dated. The cultures in there, but the sound is timeless and alive. DJ 3000 Each track on the EP tells its own story: Shote a reimagining of a traditional Albanian rhythm, layered with tough grooves and hypnotic builds. Laya built on hypnotic motion and rolling percussion, its haunting vocal textures hint at deeper rhythmic traditions. Lumni from the Albanian word for blessed, it carries a spiritual weight wrapped in rhythm and resolve. Qilim inspired by handwoven Albanian rugs, its detailed arrangement plays like sonic embroidery. This EP is a continuation of DJ 3000s mission: to merge deep roots with futuristic form. Shote represents raw, focused techno that respects the past while refusing to stand still.
