Same loudness. Decide by ear.
Before and after play at the same loudness, so you hear what the master changes: the kick, the low end, the space. Loud is fine. Flat is not.
What techno needs from a master
Sub that survives the cut
Vinyl does not forgive wide bass. The vinyl premaster keeps the low end mono, tames sibilance and leaves the limiter out, so the cutting engineer gets headroom instead of a brick.
Long tracks are normal here
Hypnotic techno runs eight or ten minutes, and that is normal here. Tell us the length when you send the mix.
An EP a DJ can play without touching the gain
Every track sits at the same perceived loudness, so the mix from your track two into track three stays smooth.
Before we master, we listen like a producer.
If something in the mix holds your track back, you hear it from us first. Raw productions stay raw.
Mastered by someone who has played the big stages.
Too much energy, too little room. Lars Peter knows that problem from both sides of the speakers.

On stage as Antagon and as -Z- (alpha & antagon), from Boom in Portugal to tours through the USA, Mexico and India.
Lars has played more than 100 shows on big systems as Antagon and -Z- (alpha & antagon). He checks every master on ATC monitors, then on earbuds and a phone.
Interzone is two people and one studio. Lars Peter masters, André Szigethy produces and runs the webradio. You always talk to the engineer who masters your track.

Questions
Do I need a separate vinyl master?
If you press, yes. The digital master is limited for streaming. The vinyl premaster costs 15 € per track and goes straight to the cutting engineer.
Where do EBM and dark electro go?
Both are welcome. They have their own page with ambient and darkwave, because the questions there are about dynamics more than about the PA.
Which files do you deliver?
WAV 24 bit at your sample rate, WAV 16 bit / 44.1 kHz, and a vinyl or DDP version if you order one.
