They are here, all over: sudden, random molecular movements. Invisible and yet extremely effective. Perceptible only to those who turn on things from a peculiar outlook. Now Rio unfolds the second edition of “Risks Issues Opportunities”, bringing interstellar musical developments full of little, yet profound molecule advances. Eight mystical fate spinners, with the muscle to shed some light on unanswered questions, that will stay unanswered after all. Monolithic, yet deeply fragile compositions, made by terrestrials like Leipzig based producer Syncboy, Pannotia from Sydney, Italy based dusty drum machines lovers Twoonky, Charlotte Simon, known as one half of the art duo Les Trucs from Frankfurt, Berlin mystic’s like Airaboi or Nadia D'Alò of the duo INIT, Brooklyn based “The Thing” housekeeper Willie Burns and Vienna’s symbolist sound poet Bocksrucker. They all created electric signs for the above. Murky analogue prophesiers without prophecy, bringing headway music against the greedy frontier spirit. Hypnotic tones out of a hazy musical outer space. Like a dream that forgot to dream, they wave around with veiled frequencies full of ray, processed through analogue machine power. Music, that is able to in sight humans to an Atget photography. Able to transmit flashes to the firmament, to stars that wander darkling in eternal space. And yes: to some who listen a sudden physical movement might transpire, despite the fact that all was made without a particular practical value. Art for art's sake. In favor of an alternative to reality. Compellingly haunted by itself. Like stone, that awaits a random molecular movement.

The recording of my live set at closing hour in Closer club while Black Factory annual festival in Kyiv.

Радий опублікувати запис свого лайву з одного із  моїх улюблених фестивалів, який робе @closer.ua та @worn_pop . Цього року умови для проведення були самі підходящі: це постійна потенційна темрява та холод в наших містах. Але не в думках і будинках, - там у нас потужне випромінювання незламності, яке плавить всі плани запоребріков нас скорити. Наше світло в цій темряві - це мистецтво, це мова, це наша любов до життя і наші ще потужніші, ніж до війни плани на майбутнє. Ми - нація переможців, і цього разу ми це покажемо і собі, і всьому світу! А такий фестиваль в скрутну годину - це як черговий доказ нашої неминучої перемоги. Вірте в себе й надалі, дякую всім, хто долучився, створив цей фестиваль, та дочекався мого виступу, попре всі перебої з напругою. Сподіваюсь, шо вам було по кайфу, як і мені, бо, як на мене, в Closer завжди самий гарний звук.  
Слава Україні і Слава Зборйним Силам України 
✊🇺🇦❤️‍🔥

12th guest is @nessiel for a swampy technoid one.

Founder of the Module mix series and events in Rennes, France, Nessiel finds inspiration in the night.  

He mixes new tracks with older beats creating mixes that range from techno, broken beats, hybrid halftime, to downtempo and ambient and this one is a perfect example.

It’s one of those mixes you want to listen to closely, paying attention to the progression and blends, thank you Nessiel!

Red Room Sessions is a nonprofit podcast radio project born from a deep love for techno and rave culture — a space where freedom, raw energy, and underground sound collide. Rooted in the origins of the scene, it stays true to the essence: no trends, no filters, just pure sonic exploration. The name Red Room Sessions comes from the red glow often seen in clubs — it sets the tone and makes you feel like you’ve entered another world. It’s not just about music; it’s about the full experience, the atmosphere, the energy.

This episode introduces 04reference — a DJ, music producer, and the founder of Red Room Sessions. Her sound blends raw techno, elements of trance, electro, acid house, and bass, but her core remains rooted in techno. Her sets are an exploration of hypnotic rhythms, tribal grooves, and deep, percussive energy. The name 04reference is a nod to her birthday — April 4 — making it a deeply personal marker, detached from gender or cultural labels and rooted purely in lived experience. Whether behind the decks or producing music, she carves out a sound that stays underground, emotional, and entirely self-defined.

@04reference

04reference is a DJ, producer, and the founder of Red Room Sessions — a space for sonic introspection and unfiltered club expression. Her sound is rooted in techno but resists containment: weaving through trance, acid, electro, and bass, she crafts immersive sets where rhythm becomes ritual and repetition becomes release.

The alias 04reference is a quiet act of self-definition — a personal timestamp tied to her birthdate, April 4, yet detached from gender, trends, or scenes. It speaks to an identity shaped not by labels, but by emotion and lived experience.

Her recent debut EP “Kinda Deejay” captures this ethos — raw, reflective, and charged with the tension between solitude and shared experience. Red Room Sessions continues that thread: a refusal to conform, a commitment to the underground, and an invitation to feel rather than follow.

Lately, 04reference has been experimenting with the delivery, trying out new approaches and striving to create more profound, intricate sonic experiences, crafting not just regular club night selections, but exploratory cross-genre ones. This set is a part of that research. Enjoy.

Join the Dots w/ 04reference (Tbilisi 27.09.25)

Hydrozoa Recordings presents a masterclass in duality from label head Aardy with his latest EP, 'Top of the World'. This two-track release serves as a powerful journey through distinct yet complementary electronic soundscapes. The release opens with an electrifying fusion of 90s house nostalgia with a captivating modern groove. Built on a raw bassline and percussive textures honed to perfection, it's a high-energy composition, with a classic design to take the dance floor to a fever pitch. Aardy then explores a different side of the electronic spectrum on the B-side, crafting a powerful dub-infused narrative with a driving rhythm that nods directly to the timeless soul of Detroit. Together, these two cuts showcase Aardy's versatile production prowess and his deep rooted passion for a broad range of underground electronica.
