Originally released in 2002, “Harnessed the Storm” was conceived as the opening chapter of the legendary seven Storms – a series of seven albums created within a single year and released via several labels under different names. “Harnessed the Storm” was the sole one in the series credited under the main Drexciya project.
The album, which is considered to be one of the pair's darkest, was produced in a time of creative outbreak and emo- tional turbulence. The duo's confidence was at a peak, new techniques revolutionized musical production, but the duo also had to face Stinson's severe health issues. This led to a radical shift of pace in producing and releasing music. For the Detroit pair it was time to move on from their ground-breaking past. It was time for some shape shifting and wave jumping to occur, in Drexciya’s terms.
This is reflected two-folds on the ten cuts of “Harnessed the Storm”. With seven different album projects in the pipeline, Stinson and Donald were able to give the atmospheres and structures of each individual work a more distinct focus, resulting in longer pieces and more defined moods. “Harnessed the Storm” integrated classic Drexciyan dance floor moments like “Under Sea Disturbances” and “Digital Tsunami”, brooding experiments like “Dr. Blowfins' Black Storm Stabilizing Spheres” and “Aquatic Cataclysm” which rank with the most abstract, alien and stark in their catalogue, and a few choice cuts of wave-cruising beauty into a cohesive whole – the disparate elements fused by an all-permeating sonic dread.
“Harnessed the Storm” is as much the uncanny silence before the storm - looming in the unknown, as the storm itself, making this album at once an incredibly focused sound production, as well as a journey of highest emotional complexity.
Another masterful lesson in futurist dance music from one of its strongest forces.

"A mix series focused on showcasing the spicy mix of ghetto house, electro & everything in between."

Mahabe consists of two like-minded friends who are currently based in Amsterdam. They live together, they eat together, but most of time they play records together. Over the years they’ve built up a decent collection of records which stretches out from techno to electro and from house to ghetto.
Over the years Mahabe have played several clubs and festivals throughout the Netherlands such as: BRET, Wildeburg, KOPJEK and Soenda to name a few.
They also run a monthly radio show called 137 FM, where they play sets that represent their club sound as well as host listening sessions ranging from jazz, hiphop, rare groove and soundtracks. So expect the unexpected, but know that when they’re playing their records, all that’s on their minds is: “What would we like to hear if we we’re on the dancefloor right now?”

"This mix represents letting go of the frustration and the hard journey we experienced since the war started in Ukraine. This is a tribute to remembering the beautiful and careless times we spent one summer in Kyiv. This is the journey of accepting change and being present with the groove in this moment of time.

We are a dj duo - a collaboration from Mars and Sharmeen. Mars is from Ukraine, inspired by the Eastern European punk scene. Sharmeen is from Texas, where she spent time around the industrial electronic scenes in the south. Our sound is fast and experimental. We lean towards futuristic & progressive groovy techno. Elements of house, trance, and nostalgic 90’s."
