Live at Memetic 2024 - Timeless & Future Classics

Everybody Loves the Sunshine!

CLOSERcast proudly presents Temudo, a standout figure in contemporary Techno, premiering his brand new live set, recorded at Disorder @ Liquid Club (October 2024), exclusively on our platform!

Known for blending the soul of Techno with a modern, unorthodox approach, Temudo's music is characterised by gritty, futuristic sounds, with a signature motif resembling a rusty crank pounding into a brick wall. In 2023, Temudo embarked on a new journey into live performance, delivering spontaneous sets that challenge traditional expectations. Each live set is a unique, improvised act where he pushes the boundaries of Ableton to its sonic limits. 

"The main idea is that the music of that recording didn’t exist before the performance itself. It was all created on the flow, one idea after the other, through the control of sequencers, Lfos, arpeggiators and other complex midi processing, as well as virtual synthesizers and sound processors. I would have an idea playing for the audience, and would prepare the next one (by pre listening on the headphones) and would eventually blend both."

Just Keep Moving

Groove and rhythm-focused techno has captivated Ty Bonlando since he was a young raver in Calgary around the turn of the millennium. His fascination with the art and technicalities of DJing has led him to develop a unique and forward-thinking approach to mixing music. Using custom-programmed controllers and software to DJ has allowed his workflow to constantly evolve, maximizing creativity. An average 75-minute set features over 40 tracks accompanied by loops, samples, and effects, ensuring not only the uniqueness of every set he plays but also the distinctiveness of his performance style.

Technical aspects aside, flow and music selection are his top priorities. Dub, raw, hypnotic, hardgroove, hard, dark, deep, and broken-beat, are among the many different flavours of techno that he layers, splices and loops together to create unique grooves that will keep the floor moving for hours.

Ty is the co-founder of I Love Techno YYC, a 20-year love affair showcasing talented local DJs and well-known heavy hitters. With professional and unique lighting and stage design, these shows fill a demand for techno and techno-influenced music in an underground atmosphere.

If you’d like to learn more about how he DJs, visit his YouTube channel for point-of-view mixes, where you can see every button push, knob twist, and fader cut, along with tutorials, and tips.
