Max Styler continues to expand the sound of his Nu Moda imprint with Nexus 003, the latest installment in the label’s ongoing compilation series. Bringing together six exclusive tracks, the release explores the space between tech house, indie dance, and disco, highlighting a diverse group of producers shaping the label’s forward-thinking direction.
Featuring music from Broken Hill, Talón, ROWSEN, blaktone, Fur Coat, and Morab, and NO STATIC & Max Cardona, the compilation moves through a range of club-focused styles while maintaining a consistent emphasis on groove, atmosphere, and distinctive production.

The Los Angeles producer’s background as a trained audio engineer and interest in analog equipment are reflected in its detailed arrangement. Shifting chords, sharp synths, warped vocals, subtle woodwind melodies, and lively bongos give the track plenty of movement.
