When Leipzig’s mischluft and Glasgow’s t e s t p r e s s come together, expect nothing less than dancefloor devastation. Their new single “BOUNCE N BREAK,” out April 18 via HARD Recs, is a relentless, no-holds-barred hard dance weapon that bridges sweaty underground basements and blinding festival main stages.
From the very first beat, “BOUNCE N BREAK” hits like a jolt of electricity—no slow builds, no fluff. Driven by rubbery basslines, glitched-out synth bursts, and cheeky vocal stabs, the track captures the raw thrill of rave nostalgia with a modern, techno-bounce twist. It’s gritty, playful, and engineered for pure impact.
The collaboration has been brewing for a while, with both acts sharing stages at massive events like Tomorrowland. Once they finally hit the studio together, the result was inevitable: chaos, chemistry, and club carnage.
“This release is full of energy and bounces harder than anything I’ve done before—true to its title,” says mischluft. “I think the track is a perfect blend of t e s t p r e s s and my sound, combining the best of both into a driving club banger.”
t e s t p r e s s adds, “When mischluft and t e s t p r e s s, both certified purveyors of high energy, decided to collab, we knew right away this was gonna be a big one. ‘BOUNCE N BREAK’ brings together their two styles to create a track that will make the dancefloor bounce.”
mischluft, known for his sultry vocal chops and turbo-charged techno flair, is riding high after standout collabs with Bad Boombox, a Boiler Room blowout at Modul’air, and upcoming appearances at Terminal V, Solar Waves, and Tension Festival. He’s quickly emerging as one of Europe’s top names in the new rave wave.
Meanwhile, t e s t p r e s s—the fast-rising duo from Aberdeen—are stacking global acclaim with a sound that fuses trance-laced euphoria with club-ready punch. Already this year, they’ve crushed an Australian tour and lit up legendary venues like Warehouse Project, Bootshaus, Mondo Disko, and Watergate, with major radio support from BBC Radio 1, Capital Dance, and Kiss FM UK.
With “BOUNCE N BREAK,” these two genre-bending innovators push their sound to the limit, delivering a peak-time heater that refuses to sit still. Call it hard dance, rave tech, or just your next obsession—this one’s primed to detonate Funktion-Ones around the globe.
