Chami and OPH are a part-time double act with roots in Lyon and a more recent base in Berlin. Fully integrated in their local scene, the pair have expanded their love of records to furtive raves on the outskirts of town (Minijob). Under the moniker Face 2 Face they play very literally one in front of the other, with a four turntable, two mixer set up, dogged passion and a little faith that kismet will devise whatever sound it may. A mirror framework that cultivates subconscious dialogue between the two and their crowd by extension  Together they proffer a world that’s as stimulating as it is fast-paced; it’s deep, repetitive, ritualistic techno with a magnetic pull that’s hard to deny, at once cerebral and groovy. This twin flame has lit up floors from Paris’ La Station to Tokyo’s Womb, with a Bassiani performance back in October. Here, for a very special Bassiani Podcast 215, the duo band together once more and tell a 90 minute tale that twists and turns in unexpected ways, one that’s every bit the raw and potent sound they’re known for. Formidable techno that’s quick as a flash and doesn’t waste a second messing around.

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.

A word from Maemm : 

"While I kept a consistent speed throughout (133 bpm), I played with different energies and atmospheres, evolving from a dark soundscape to ultimately break free from the heaviness and welcome the brightness."

OUTREBLEU 014 ᚒ Maemm

For the thirteenth episode of our podcast series, we are presenting a 90-minute studio recorded mix by Kim Kenis.

Natural consequence is a key phrase for Brussels-born DJ Kim Kenis.  Raised by a drummer, it’s no coincidence that she easily stays in time as she strings together gems from along the genre spectrum. Known and loved as someone who pretty much can’t stop dancing once she starts, it was only a matter of time before she channeled this endurance behind the decks.  Whether sending stargazers into the ether with her ambient selections or getting hearts and bass thumping on the dancefloor with her minimalistic techno sets, Kim brings a bewitching tenderness to her DJ-ing that quickly caught the attention of the Belgian scene.

With the tenacity of a historian deep in an archive, she’s had a near-prolific output of thoughtful, studied radio mixes since 2019 (Refuge Worldwide FM, WAV, Radio Sofa) and an interesting club & festival schedule (Waking Life, Horst Arts & Music, Paradise City, Listen! Festival, Funke, …).

Technopol Mix 106 | Maemm

This mix for BLUR is a glimpse into the spectrum of sounds that inspire me—deep, driving, and unpredictable. I wanted to explore different shades of my style while keeping it fun and playful, without revealing too much of what’s to come at the event in March. Expect hypnotic grooves, raw energy, and moments of tension and release—just a taste before the full impact hits.

BLURCAST 55 | AVANT.OCS

The fourteenth episode of our podcast series welcomes Paris-based DJ Maemm, co-founder of the collective "La Taquinerie" and a resident DJ at the Parisian club La Gare, Le Gore on Thursdays, with a 60-minute studio recorded mix.

Maemm shapes her sets with various atmospheres, aiming to create immersive journeys rooted in narrative.
Influenced by a hypnotic techno style with sometimes psychedelic overtones, she also draws inspiration from ambient music and more experimental genres. Her passion for exploring new sounds allows her to enrich her musical universe and remain in constant evolution. 
She has shared the stage with renowned artists such as DJ Nobu, GiGi FM, Zadig, or Kerrie and has recently performed at legendary Berghain.

Premire : YUKIMASA - S.o.t.o infinity (Ryogo Yamamori Remix)

Waves of pulsing, layered techno from the revered Mala Junta resident.

If the electronic music industry is caught in the crosshairs of a battle over what makes for true techno, then D.Dan is one of the underground's great modern emissaries.

A figurehead from the new guard of DJs to arise in the '20s, the Berlin-based artist and Mala Junta resident is an ambassador for a sound that is strongly anchored in the classic roots of techno. His productions, like his mixes, are revved-up takes on the hypnotic wormholes that defined dance floors last decade, but with a fresh (and high BPM) millennial twist. 

Originally from Seattle, D.Dan became enamoured with the spectral stylings of psych rock and shoegaze in adolescence. It's not difficult to see how the cosmic tapestry of bands like Cocteau Twins became a blueprint for the entrancing music he's gone on to make as an adult. His releases on Mutant Future and summerpup are latticeworks of loops and layered percussion, custom-tooled for lost hours on the dance floor and drawn-out mixes behind the decks. 

This approach directly extends into his DJ practice, where he pairs song selections from contemporaries that mirror his own reduced, controlled approach to techno. RA.994 is a Grade A display of contemporary four-to-the-floor from flagbearers like Roll Dann and Marcal.

And like D.Dan's standalone records, his RA Podcast finds room for sweetness—the intermittent peal of an open clap, the steady ripening of a chord—while ultimately emphasising the beauty of function and form over flair.

For the fifteenth episode of our podcast series, we are presenting a 75-minute studio recorded mix by hsnbr.

John Harutyunyan, aka hsnbr, is a producer and DJ crafting deep, hypnotic, and psychedelic soundscapes rooted in groove and subtle motion. His music is driven by atmosphere — textured, immersive, and slow-burning — inviting both introspection and dancefloor connection. With releases on Back&forth and Crescent London, hsnbr continues to shape a distinct sonic narrative that moves between shadow and light. This mix captures that vision: patient, trippy, and grounded.
