If you’ve spent any time immersed in the world of melodic techno or trance, the name KhoMha likely rings with deep resonance. Hailing from Colombia, Roberto Alzate — better known by his stage name KhoMha — has carved out a lane entirely his own. With a catalog that bridges the energy of big-room with the depth of progressive and emotional trance, KhoMha’s productions have long been a staple in the sets of global icons like Markus Schulz, Armin van Buuren, and Above & Beyond.
His latest release, Artie, out now on the legendary Coldharbour Recordings, is a masterclass in emotional tension and atmospheric groove. Clocking in at 134 BPM, this instrumental track showcases KhoMha’s signature blend of melodic house & techno — a style that’s become increasingly refined in recent years, without losing the raw drive that first brought him international acclaim.
From the very first bar, Artie unfolds like a story. The percussive pulse is crisp and confident, setting a foundation over which airy synth layers slowly drift in, teasing the senses. The emotional core of the track, however, lies in its soaring melodic phrasing — a theme that glistens with both euphoria and a touch of melancholia. It’s this bittersweet balance that sets KhoMha apart: he creates tracks not just to move bodies, but to move hearts.
This release arrived just in time to make waves during Miami Music Week, and it’s not hard to imagine Artie becoming a standout moment in sets across the city — or anywhere that forward-thinking dance music is played. There’s an authenticity in KhoMha’s sound that cuts through the noise, and Artie is a shining example of that.
While Artie doesn’t lean heavily on vocal hooks or dramatic drops, its strength lies in its sophisticated build and immersive textures. It’s the kind of track that DJs love for its versatility, and fans cherish for its emotional depth.
⭐️ Rating: 9.2/10
? Perfect for:
- Sunset drives
- Club peak-time sets

KhoMha once again proves that he doesn’t follow trends — he shapes them. Artie is a lush, hypnotic journey that captures the soul of melodic techno while staying true to the emotive roots of trance.
