We are thrilled to present you our next guest of the KONTUR Podcast series - Truxx.

These guys have perfected their approach on modern hypnotic techno regarding their sets as well as their outstanding productions. 

KONTUR Podcast 09 - TRUXX

Maeksll is a techno producer and DJ from Basel whose music is characterised by openness to different styles, but remains firmly rooted in techno. Inspired by the hypnotic sound of the early 2010s and warm house chords, he creates rhythmic yet emotional tracks. His productions are characterised by movement, subtle melancholy and nostalgia and combine repetitive structures with constant development. His DJ sets also follow this approach, focussing on groove, mood and narrative rather than trends. His focus is always on an honest, profound exploration of music, far removed from mere spectacle.

We are happy to announce that Tzunamicast 004 with Muski is now available on SoundCloud.

Prepare yourself for a journey through cutting edge music and captivating themes. 
Dive into a dynamic conversation with Muski as we explore the vibrant world of techno and what makes it truly unique. Join our passionate community of listeners and experience this unforgettable sonic adventure.

Muski, born and raised in Malta, discovered his passion for electronic music through the local underground techno scene in 2014. Known for his fast-paced, hypnotic style and refined track selection, he began playing gigs shortly after. In 2015, he co-founded Xpose, hosting artists like Newa, Amotik, CJ Bolland, and Exium. Since 2018, he has been a key figure behind In.di.go and waX—two major local events developed with Solid Tracks Records—featuring acts such as ANNĒ, Alarico, KR!Z, and Blasha & Allatt.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE ALSO HAD THE PLEASURE OF ASKING MUSKI A FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TECHNO SCENE:


WHAT DO YOU THINK THE TECHNO SCENE NEEDS LESS OF RIGHT NOW?

"THE TECHNO SCENE IS STRONG AT THE MOMENT....YOU CAN SEE IT FROM THE JAM-PACKED DANCEFLOORS. I WOULD SAY HOWEVER THAT WE NEED LESS PEOPLE USING MOBILES ON THE DANCEFLOOR. IT KILLS THE VIBE, AND THE INDIVIDUAL STOPS BEING PRESENT IN THE MOMENT. THE CONNECTION PEOPLE HAVE WITH THE MUSIC, AND THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE CROWD AND THE DJ IS SOMETHING SPECIAL WHEN IT HAPPENS THE RIGHT WAY, AND THAT SHOULD NOT BE LOST."


CAN TECHNO STILL DISTURB, OR HAS IT BECOME TOO COMFORTABLE?

"OVER THE YEARS TECHNO HAS BECOME ONE OF THE MAIN GENRES WHERE PEOPLE CONNECT WITH EACH OTHER ESPECIALLY IN TERMS OF COMMUNITY. DESPITE THIS, THE OLD VIEW OF TECHNO, WHICH WAS SEEN AS A KIND OF TABOO GENRE MAKING IT A DISRUPTIVE FORCE, IS SLOWLY FADING MAKING IT MUCH MORE ACCESSIBLE. MORE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THE CULTURE SURROUNDING TECHNO."


IS INNOVATION IN ELECTRONIC MUSIC BEING LED BY SOUND, CONTEXT, OR ATTITUDE TODAY?

"IN THE LAND OF MAINSTREAM TECHNO, I BELIEVE INNOVATION IS BEING DRIVEN BY ATTITUDE. IN CERTAIN CASES, I FEEL THAT TECHNO NO LONGER CARRIES THAT FUTURISTIC VIBE ANYMORE – IT’S TRUE THAT THERE’S A LOT OF GREAT MUSIC COMING OUT BUT TECHNOLOGY HAS MADE IT EASIER FOR LESS MUSICALLY-MINDED ARTISTS AND HAS ALSO STIFLED HUMAN CREATIVITY. IT’S EASIER TO BUILD WHEN THERE ARE ALL THESE TEMPLATES AROUND.
AS IS ALWAYS THE CASE, SOME SUPER TALENTED ARTISTS ARE PUSHING THROUGH THIS AND USING THE IMPROVED TOOLS TO GET EVEN MORE CREATIVE AND PRODUCE SOME AMAZING TECHNO SOUNDS."

Wish you all a wavy ride, TZUNAMI.

"Lymsa est une DJ française basée à Paris, originaire du Havre et passée par Lille, où elle découvre la musique électronique grâce à son entourage. Cette révélation bouleverse sa perception de la musique et marque le début d’un véritable engagement artistique. Rapidement attirée par la techno, lymsa développe un goût prononcé pour des sonorités plus profondes et expérimentales. Son univers musical est hypnotique et introspectif, construit comme un voyage sensoriel entre textures brutes, rythmes organiques et atmosphères immersives. Derrière les platines, ses sélections sont pensées avec précision, à l’image de sa sensibilité : exigeante et sincère. À travers ses sets, elle défend une vision pure de la musique, fidèle à ses racines et à son parcours. Au-delà du mix, lymsa s'investit activement dans la scène électronique parisienne, notamment au sein du collectif Dismal?, où elle participe au développement de formats artistiques alliant exigence musicale et esthétiques singulières."

Hekato est une DJ présente sur la scène depuis 2019. Cofondatrice du collectif et du label en pleine expansion Całość, elle s’est imposée comme l’un des talents les plus reconnaissables de Pologne. Grâce à une série de performances marquantes dans son pays, elle est devenue une invitée régulière à Berlin. Elle s’est produite dans des lieux emblématiques tels qu’Anomalie, About Blank et le légendaire Tresor.

Hekato baigne dans la musique et l’art depuis l’enfance. Elle a appris le chant et la danse folkloriques dès son plus jeune âge et s’est également intéressée à la peinture. Originaire de Rybnik, elle vit aujourd’hui à Wroclaw, où elle développe sa carrière musicale.
D’abord fascinée par la deep techno, elle s’est progressivement tournée vers des sonorités plus rapides, intégrant même des accents trance dans ses sets. Ses performances ne font aucun compromis : la qualité et l’originalité y sont toujours au premier plan.

Malgré une forte présence scénique, Hekato reste une âme introvertie qui exprime ses émotions à travers la musique, emmenant ses auditeurs dans un voyage sonore profond.

DT:Premiere | Pyramidal Decode - Virgilio [Phyr]

Cuando el sol empezó a caer sobre el Bulevar, Kürah Club x Atmos se transformó en un escenario donde la música y el arte se fundieron en un solo latido. VIRXE, con su techno elegante y groovero, tejió paisajes sonoros que vibraban en cada rincón, mientras Estudio Noveno danzaba, transformando cada movimiento en pura magia.

La compañía de Estudio Noveno llenó el aire de energía, locura controlada y belleza en movimiento; cada gesto, cada giro, cada instante se convirtió en una extensión de los beats de VIRXE, creando un puente entre sonido, cuerpo y alma.

Este track captura esa chispa única: la elegancia del techno, la fuerza de la performance y la atmósfera irrepetible de una tarde en la que la música se volvió luz, movimiento y pura emoción.
Escúchalo, déjate llevar y revive la intensidad de aquel momento en el que Kürah Club y Estudio Noveno hicieron bailar el ocaso.

VIRXE & Estudio Noveno — Shadow Moves (Kürah Club x Atmos)

Never Forget is a mixture of melodic, futuristic and hypnotic Elements paired with fast and hard Hitting Kicks. The Rolling Bassline and grooving Rhytms completing this Track to its final Version.
