FVTVR Launches Record Label With FVTVR-001, An Eight-Track Double Vinyl Bringing Together Generations Of Techno

FVTVR, the Parisian club founded in 2024 on the banks of the Seine, launches its own record label with its first release, an eight-track double vinyl spanning several generations of Techno, with original artwork by Harry Nuriev. Conceived as an extension of the club rather than a separate venture, the label will give a lasting form to the music, artists and encounters that shape its nights. Every release will carry a work commissioned from a visual artist, and a Label Launch Night on Friday, November 13th brings six of the featured producers together, ahead of the record’s release in mid-January 2027.

The first release, FVTVR-001, brings together eight producers, from Techno pioneers such as Steve Bicknell to the emerging artists who are regulars of the club. Its artwork is the first in a series of commissions: for each release, FVTVR will invite a visual artist to create an original work that defines the record and an accompanying capsule collection, beginning with Harry Nuriev, founder of Crosby Studios.

Founded in 2024 beneath the Cité de la Mode et du Design, FVTVR was built around the physical experience of sound. Its raw concrete architecture, immersive L-Acoustics system and lighting by Matière Noire have made it a place for long, uninterrupted nights, where the bond between artists, dancers and the dancefloor comes first.

In two years, the club has welcomed some of electronic music’s most influential figures, including Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Ben Klock, Ki/Ki, Boys Noize, Fjaak and DJ Gigola, alongside artists working across music, performance and contemporary culture such as Arca, FKA Twigs, Eartheater and Sega Bodega.

FVTVR has also become a meeting point for art, fashion and performance. It has hosted NACHTS, Mischa Fanghaenel’s photographic exploration of Berlin’s underground, and collaborations with Fecal Matter, (LA)HORDE and Matière Noire, as well as programmes during Paris Fashion Week and Art Basel Paris, including Reference Festival.

The label grows directly out of this community. Its aim is not only to release music, but to turn the relationships formed on the dancefloor into records and objects that last.

FVTVR-001, the debut release from the label, features Ignez, Tauceti, Rebecca Delle Piane, Kian Gast, Mathys Lenne, Steve Bicknell, Adriana Lopez and Louis The 4th, each with an original track. Spanning different generations of the international Techno scene, the selection brings together established figures whose music has been a major source of inspiration for FVTVR, alongside emerging artists who are regular contributors to the club’s programme. Placing them side by side highlights the connections between their respective practices and the musical lineage that runs through the club’s programming.

Rather than defining a single sound or scene, FVTVR intends to build a catalogue whose coherence comes from its choices and the relationships formed around the club.

Emmanuel Gunther, Artistic Director of FVTVR, comments:

“We see the label as the soundtrack to the nights at the club, documented release after release through artists who live and work here, whether emerging local talents we want to bring into the spotlight or international artists who consider FVTVR their Parisian home. It reflects the community that comes through our doors every weekend: musicians, visual artists, creatives from every field and night owls.”

For every release, FVTVR will invite a visual artist to create an original work that defines the record’s identity. Rather than a fixed graphic template, the label will develop an evolving visual language, shaped by each artist it invites. Over time, these commissions will form a body of work of their own, running alongside the catalogue.

The first commission goes to Harry Nuriev, artist and founder of Crosby Studios, whose practice spans contemporary art, design, architecture and fashion. Nuriev has created the artwork for the FVTVR-001 double vinyl, as well as a capsule collection that extends it into objects.

Arnaud Frisch, founder of FVTVR, shares:

“A new generation in Paris is redefining the relationship between music, art and design. Producers, visual artists and designers now work in constant dialogue, and the club has become one of the places where that exchange takes shape.”

To mark the birth of the label, FVTVR hosts a label launch Night on Friday, November 13th, 2026, from 9 PM until noon on Saturday, with six artists from the compilation playing over fifteen hours, including Kian Gast, Tauceti, Mathys Lenne, Rebecca Delle Piane, Steve Bicknell and Ignez. The first audio excerpts will be released on November 12th, ahead of the double vinyl release in mid-January 2027. With FVTVR-001, the label begins a catalogue shaped by the artists and community around the club.
