Improper techno: Volume 5 - Hardgroove / Hypnotic / Deep techno

This 90-minute DJ set from a gig at Pure Psyence in June of 2023 let me explore techno's hypnotic and often driving side. I enjoyed layering all these tracks, samples, textures, and effects on an excellent sound system (should out to Ionic sound from Calgary). 

Enjoy my storytelling through techno while I weave in and out of deep, hypnotic techno to intense rave-inspired music. 

As usual, I've included the tracklisting below, and you can find this on my SoundCloud or MixCloud.

Improper techno volume 3 - Raw and Hypnotic Berlin Techno

Happy techno Tuesday everyone! After taking most of the summer off for studio mixes, I'm happy to share this new one with you.

This mix focuses on deep and dub techno with a lot of ethereal, spaced-out hypnotic techno and progresses to some more intense, darker, twisted stuff. 

I really had fun layering these tracks together, looping, filtering, and knob twisting, and I hope you enjoy listening to it. 

Follow me on YouTube (https://youtube.com/@djbonlando) for high-quality video versions of my mixes, and email ty@bonlandocreative.com for bookings.

Improper techno volume 14 - Hybrid set | Rene Wise | Yan Cook | UFO95 | Lindsey Herbert | Chlär

Here's a proper hypnotic, raw, deep and driving techno DJ mix that evolves over an hour through a variety of moods and intensities. This is a proper techno journey featuring tracks from some of the best: Rene Wise, Rødhåd, Red Rooms, Arthur Robert, Stef Mendesidis, Mathys Lenne, and Temudo, from labels like Cleric (on fire this year!), Mutual Rytm, Planet Rhythm, Evil Groove, Anima, and more. 

This hybrid DJ set uses Traktor Pro to play the tracks listed below along with my own samples, synths, soundscapes and drums coming from Ableton Live on the 4th channel. I've worked really hard to finally be able to achieve this, and I feel like i'm just hitting my stride with it.

Bonlando - Improper Techno 15 – Raw Hypnotic Techno Hybrid DJ Set (Traktor + Ableton Live)

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.
