The enigmatic Myles Sergé is a low flying techno producer, hard working label head and old school DJ, however he prefers the term ‘reclusive perfectionist’. Originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan, Myles experienced a temporary sojourn to the beachside of the the UK’s Brighton before relocating to Berlin. In some respects the American’s music bypasses the melodic classicalism of Detroit for a stripped-back European take on techno, though the mettlesome machine- funk of his raw style, and rough and ready prowess behind the decks, is never too far from the outer-regions of the US’ motorcity he calls home.

As a regular guest at Tresor, with no stranger to bookings at Berlin’s Berghain, Griessmuehle and ://about blank, to his residency at Steevio’s Freerotation festival in Wales, Myles is a shining example of how one can traverse the European-American transatlantic divide. With a belt of labels under his control – (MS), Re-Form, Dosed and Space – Myles has since moved on to count the likes of NYC’s Thema, The Zenker Brother’s Ilian Tape and Dan Curtin’s Metamorphic imprints as home for his music. Never one to boast, Myles Sergé Clark’s revised approach to the warehouse techno of his recent mixes and DJ sets keeps the quality underground.

Blank Code Podcast 238 - Pleasures

Vegas born. Built from small rooms and borrowed gear. She's played more awful rooms than she can count. Slamming a full live rig together in twenty minutes and making it work. Charisma? Not her thing. That's why she's loyal to the underground, the outsiders, and anyone who's been told they don't belong. No gatekeeping. No velvet ropes. Just music and the people who find it. Shared the bill with Nina Kravitz, Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Rodhad, Dax J, and Takaaki Itoh. You might have to know someone to know who she is but when you see her, ask for a sticker.

Decoder’s performances at venues like De School, Fold, and Watergate reflect his alignment with the more experimental edges of the genre.

Her sound blends layered percussion, acid grooves, and Detroit’s driving pulse into mixes that are both introspective and physical. Influenced by early exposure to live jazz, spiritual traditions, and symbolic storytelling, she creates sets that move beyond the functional—toward the transformational.

For episode 243, we present a four-hour set from Lorely Mur, recorded on October 5th, 2025, during the second edition of Misa de 7 at Bar Américas.

Raised in Ciudad Juárez, Lorely Mur developed her voice within the city’s early-2000s pressure cooker, a context that shaped the discipline and clarity that run through her work. Her years at Hardpop, one of Mexico’s most emblematic clubs, placed her alongside artists from across the global circuit and grounded her approach to techno in precision and intent.

Now based in Denver, she continues to expand her presence in the global underground while remaining a key reference in Mexican techno. This set reflects that trajectory, one that is direct, deliberate and rooted in experience.
Listen and enjoy.
