Posthumanism
by Ignacio Arfeli is an immersive techno release that appeared on April 25, 2025, via the label Memoro. The track falls within the genre *Peak Time / Driving Techno*, with a tempo of 135 BPM. In terms of atmosphere, it perfectly aligns with Arfeli’s live sets: dark, hypnotic, and with a futuristic undertone. The title 'Posthumanism' also seems thematically to refer to a world where technology and humanity merge, a concept that fits well with his layered, atmospheric production style.
