Moritz Hofbauer is back on FCKNG SERIOUS with his fifth single of 2026, and this time the Mannheim-based producer takes a sharp turn into harder territory. ‘Golden Hour’ is a powerful peak time techno cut that hits hard from the very first moment, built around a massive build up designed to ignite the dancefloor.

After the emotional and melodic ‘Two Hearts’ alongside PHEA earlier this year, Moritz strips everything back. No vocals, no distractions, just pure energy and tension. The track has already been a staple in his live shows over the past year, where it consistently stood out as a highlight and left crowds wanting more every single time.

Known for refusing to stick to a single lane, Moritz keeps proving his versatility as a producer. With a background rooted in classical instruments and composition, he brings a distinct musical sensibility to electronic music. His sets are built entirely around his own catalogue, blending emotional melodies with powerful grooves that sit somewhere between melodic techno and indie dance, while continuously exploring new directions beyond the classic four on the floor framework.

As part of Boris Brejcha’s FCKNG SERIOUS, Moritz has taken his music to renowned stages around the world, including Red Rocks in Colorado, Green Valley in Brazil and Zamna in Tulum, alongside major festivals such as Tomorrowland, Ultra Miami, EDC Mexico and Cercle Festival.

Founded by Boris Brejcha in 2015, FCKNG SERIOUS has grown into a cornerstone of the high tech minimal and techno scene, with a roster celebrated for its bold sound and unmistakable identity. ‘Golden Hour’ lands as another statement release for the label, and it is made to be played loud.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Golden Hour’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
