Prncptl Afterglow - Act III: Chapter XIII

Berlin label and party series PRNCPTL, the imprint founded by the team behind long-running event Pornceptual, releases "PRNCPTL AFTERGLOW - ACT III: CHAPTER XIII" on 15th August 2026. Pressed across double vinyl, the record is the third installment in PRNCPTL's ongoing VA series and lands as the label marks thirteen years of parties, art and community built around Berlin's queer nightlife. Eleven contributors from across the international queer circuit feature on the release, each bringing a different corner of the dancefloor to the table.

Curses, the project of former Drop the Lime artist Luca Venezia and Pornceptual resident, opens "PRNCPTL AFTERGLOW - ACT III: CHAPTER XIII" with "Make Me Feel," a guitar-tinged, wave-leaning cut built for the floor. Perra Inmunda follows with "La Noche Me Asusta," a stripped-back, vocal-led track carrying her usual Latin percussive edge. Rawmantique founder RAKANS brings "Crystal Jacuzzi" next, a Detroit-referencing techno track built on a strong, driving low-end. SEVEN label founder CRYME then turns in "Tantra Tonga," a tribal, slow-building track that sits harder than his usual house-leaning output, before Spacer Woman offers a long-form progressive house track suited to open-air sets.

Opening the second half of the album is Julie Desire with a high-energy, confrontational but playful cut before SWEAT co-founder Sparkly Pony follows with "Wavy Blue," a warmer, Balearic-leaning groove, while Pornceptual resident Rachel Noon joins Dillon Lucas and Boneman for "Pauper's Bluff," a patiently built track layered with atmosphere and subtle vocals. Closing the record on a high is Deepneue with "Crescendo," a direct, high-energy techno track built to peak.
