Irish brothers Joe and Cahir Kelly, the powerhouse techno duo known as Disfreq, are back with a bold new single, ‘The Limit’, releasing on their freshly launched label, Le Freq Recordings, this Friday, October 25. Known for their synth-heavy, high-energy techno, Disfreq continues to dominate the dance floor with this release, capturing a raw, pulsating sound that pushes club energy to exhilarating new heights.
‘The Limit’: Pure Dance Floor Carnage
Crafted to deliver full-throttle techno, ‘The Limit’ is an in-your-face production that melds distorted acid basslines with chaotic, unrelenting synths. With a stripped-back yet electrifying approach, Disfreq adds, “Simplicity was key for this track… we wanted it to feel like electricity in its purest form.” This sonic minimalism, combined with a powerful vocal refrain, showcases the duo’s knack for crafting memorable, high-impact club anthems.

A New Chapter with Le Freq Recordings
Launching Le Freq Recordings marks a pivotal moment for the Donegal-born duo. Previously featured on labels like Diynamic, Arcane, Turbo Recordings, and Trick, Disfreq now has an avenue to experiment with and fully express their unique sound. The inaugural release on Le Freq includes ‘The Limit’ along with two additional tracks, ‘Sprite’ and ‘The Writing is On the Wall’, further expanding on Disfreq’s signature “nasty but classy” production style.
“Launching Le Freq Recordings is a proud moment for us,” the brothers note. “It allows us to delve deeper into the Disfreq sound, be experimental, and show you more than just the tip of the iceberg.”
Disfreq’s Growing Influence and Worldwide Appeal
Since debuting in 2020 with their track ‘304′ on Tech City, Disfreq’s dark, hard-hitting sound has drawn comparisons to electronic legends like The Chemical Brothers and Justice. Their releases have garnered strong support from major DJs such as Solomun, Jamie Jones, CamelPhat, and Patrick Topping, with heavy play on BBC Radio 1 from tastemakers Pete Tong, Sarah Story, and Danny Howard.
Their recent EP ‘Turbo / Brotata’, released on Arcane Music, showcased Disfreq’s ability to create intense, alarm-driven techno and has seen widespread DSP support, with playlist spots on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, and Beatport.
US Tour and Upcoming Shows
In the midst of a successful US tour, Disfreq has captivated crowds from Elsewhere in New York to 1134 Broadway in Denver. Upcoming tour dates include iconic venues like Halcyon in San Francisco, Sound Nightclub in Los Angeles, CRSSD Festival in San Diego, Space in Miami, and Spybar in Chicago. Fans can also catch a special Terminal V podcast guest mix by Disfreq, set to release on October 7.
