This DJ set I performed at 'Into The Woods Festival' during Amsterdam Dance Event 2021 is a good representation of my current vision of techno. Enjoy!

Into The Woods ADE Weekender 15th October 2021

LA’s Truncate @truncate headlined our April party. Since starting in 2010, Truncate has focused on stripped back, rugged takes on techno with a sly twist. Eschewing flash and fuss, Truncate delivers the goods with an audible sense of focus; you can practically hear him working a bevy of hardware drum machines and synthesizers as the tracks develop. From his debut EP “Contrasts” to last year’s “DTW 2 LAX” on esteemed Belgian imprint Token, Truncate has remained an unwavering, true school producer’s producer and a major presence in the underground. Here's his full 3 hour set from April 2022.

Truncate - Live at Balance - BASEMENT April 15, 2022

Here is a set recording from one of my most valuable events, CODA by Ratherlost x Pax-Roama at Lofi. I put a massive effort into that night, thinking about the past and future of my DJ career. I communicated best with the dancers and could express myself in a way that only I could. Sometimes I feel insecure about my life as a DJ. CODA gave me all the answers.
Thank you, and I want to show love to all the dancers and friends who were there that night.

As the final few kick drums pounded out of the speakers on Monday night, one person waved their shirt wildly. An inflatable ball soared through the air. Everyone was dancing. Up on stage, Ben Sims and Truncate smiled as they faded out the last track of a blistering set, bringing down the curtain on a memorable weekend.

Surgeon - 10 Years of Birmingham Techno 1995-2005

Paying homage to the wonderful Surgeon. There are so many classic performances, but we particularly love this one from Awakenings Festival in 2011. Well-paced, well thought out - it's why he's one of the best! Surgeon Live @ Awakenings Easter 23.04.2011. Download audio: https://joyfeed.co/gate/EATnzGAOO
