When baseline addict Raphael meet chords maestro Alex, you know right from the start that something special is about to happen. Sprinkle of ass-shaking rhythms blended with UK style grooves and you get The Checkup. Both are active Djs and classically trained instrumentalists and we are please to welcome them on Beef records with their debut EP called The Race. On the remix duties we have Sydney based Jason Lowe aka JML whose latest EP got charted by Dj T. Enjoy this fresh three tracker.

The Checkup - In My Arms

I'm not a professional DJ, but just enjoy mixing smooth house sounds together.

Beef Records is a record label and agency, founded in 2006 in Sydney, Australia. Searching for all the interesting edges of acid-house, electro, dub, broken beats and beyond. Now residing in Prague, Beef is also events-focused, running Komiks, huge warehouse parties packed with experimental lighting and site specific art installations which have been a breeding ground for connecting artists, musicians and other sociopaths. Label is managed by Dj Schwa.

Example of artists we worked with (both events and label): Derrick May, Edward, Robert Hood, Kink, Tom Trago, Bambounou, El_Txef_A, Dircsen, Bambounou, Trus'Me, The Timewriter, Recondite, Inxec, Ian Pooley, Fatty M, Robert Babicz, Deepchild, Moscoman, BUSZ™, Jeff K, Smash TV, Arnaud Le Texier, Olsvanger, Marco Lazovic, Wax D and many more.

-------------------------------

‘’Every track starts as a conversation with myself; sometimes others just happen to listen.’’

Rødig creates with emotion and precision as his fuel. His music is less about style than intention, pursuing honesty through sound.
After years in Berlin refining his craft, he returned to Switzerland with a clearer vision, letting instinct guide where genre once did. From echoes of UK Garage to the pulse of techno, the warmth of house, breaks, and ambient, his path has been shaped by artists whose work carries soul and individuality. It’s those qualities that push him toward his own sense of uniqueness.

His first LP, ‘Human Machine’, and latest EP, ‘Soft Resistance’, on his label Shojiki Records trace this evolution, a movement toward creative freedom and truthfulness. 

Alongside Otium, Rødig continues to organise events where music is not made to impress, but to connect and be free.
As both a mixing and mastering engineer, he approaches sound with the same care and precision he brings to his art, intentionally shaping it until it feels alive and vibrant.

Born in Switzerland and shaped by the beats of UK Garage, Dubstep, and Drum’n’Bass, Rødig found his true calling in techno while studying architecture at university. Realising his passion for music, he relocated to Berlin, the beating heart of techno, where he immersed himself in refining his sound.
