X Files by Channel X

With X Files, Berlin-based duo Channel X deliver a powerful statement on the state of club music in the early 2010s. Deeply rooted in the underground, their sound redefines the parameters of minimal techno and house, breathing new life into a genre that had grown stagnant by the end of the 2000s.

This album isn't just inspired by the club—it lives and thrives in it. Designed for dark rooms, sunrise afterhours, and long, sweaty mornings, X Files is a raw, unfiltered interpretation of how electronic music should sound at its most authentic and functional.

Channel X creates a driving, hypnotic sound world where the groove is king, and the energy never dips. The truth is out there—and it’s pounding through the speakers.

Since being founded in 2005, Stil vor Talent has continuously striven to evolve, to enable and to further countless artistic careers. Sascha Braemer, Reinier Zonneveld, KlangKuenstler, Moonwalk, Teenage Mutants, HVOB are just a few of many names that inextricably link to Oliver Koletzki’s Berlin-based label.
