Mix Spotlight

M.F.S: Observatory aka Mattia Turchetti is a name you might be familiar with due to the prolific output in recent years on a host of integral labels such as Techno Rebels Only, My Techno Weighs A Ton, Hydrozoa, and Dense & Pika’s enormous, Kneaded Pains, a label of which Mattia will return to in the months to come. Whilst pouring out an established and polished sound on these heavy hitting imprints Mattia continues to grow the Observatory Music label, varying between productions from himself and fellow producers he follows closely.
Moving forward Mattia has turned a new corner in his career, after years of development honing his essential and original sound he explores new territory, leaning towards the darker techno end of the spectrum, maintaining the same animated energy he is already known for. His prominent atmospheres are carefully crafted in the studio, and this reflects into his storytelling DJ sets which flicker between different moods that the talented Italian has collected over the years in his home country and his current home of, London. The natural knack in the booth has seen Mattia take his sound to several hotspots including Barcelona, Helsinki, London and Italy.
A prime example of raw technique combined with passion is what we have here, a never ending story of evolution with his sound constantly changing, finding new leases of life, and pockets of creativity from different aspects of his path so far. M.F.S: Observatory may be receiving a curious and gritty new chapter of his journey, but the key elements and beliefs stay the same, and long may that continue.

AMLTD024 - Ken Karter - Clockwork

Set the Mood with G.A.S.!

For G.A.S., the perfect opening set starts light, rhythmic, and full of swing. The music should feel playful and effortless, something that gets people moving and creates a relaxed atmosphere where the crowd can ease into the night. This part of the night is about comfort and curiosity, drawing listeners in through groove and flow. As the set unfolds, the energy gradually shifts into deeper and darker territory. Here, the DJ can explore textures and contrasts, slowly raising the intensity and building anticipation for what lies ahead. By the end, the dancefloor should be warm, alive, and completely in tune, ready for the next chapter.

The 47th edition of the Set the Mood series features Utrecht-based DJ G.A.S., an artist deeply connected to the city and its nightlife. This connection inspired him to leave a positive musical imprint on the place that shaped him. His love for techno began in Berlin, where the raw and industrial underground scene introduced him to a wide world of unfamiliar sounds. Over time, his style evolved into a blend of thumping techno infused with acoustic, electro, swing-inspired and breaky elements. He often plays at a slower tempo than most techno DJs, placing emphasis on danceability and emotional depth.

Beyond his work as a DJ, G.A.S. is passionate about giving back to the community. As a volunteer host at Birdcage Radio, he supports an open and inclusive music culture. His name, G.A.S., stands for gegeneraliseerde angststoornis (generalized anxiety disorder), a reference he uses to raise awareness and support for mental health. For him, music is a way to express, connect, and create space. Through his sets, he hopes to offer a sense of safety and honesty, both on the dancefloor and in everyday life, by simply being himself and inviting others to do the same.

G.A.S. - Set the Mood 047 (Oefenmeesters)

The 48th guest in the Set the Mood series is DONK, a rising DJ and producer from the Dutch underground scene. Known for his deep and groove-oriented sound, he presents a carefully curated set designed for one of the most important moments of the night: the opening.

For DONK, a perfect opening set depends on many factors. The venue, the time of the night, the rest of the line-up, how crowded the space is, and the energy of the early crowd all influence the direction of the set. It’s not just about playing music; it’s about shaping the atmosphere.

In preparing this mix, he imagined a club that fills up quickly with a crowd eager to dance. The setting is intimate, with low lighting and few distractions, allowing the music to take full focus. The line-up suggests a night that leans toward deep, groovy, and slightly spacey sounds, and DONK’s set reflects that vision.

He believes that a good opening set should never be too fast or intense. It’s a moment to capture the audience’s curiosity with detailed sound design and steady rhythms that gradually build energy. Rather than peaking too soon, the goal is to create a slow burn that pulls people toward the dance floor. By the end, the room should be warm, moving, and ready for the next artist to take things further.

His selection is rooted in minimal house grooves, hypnotic techno, and melodic, percussive textures. The result is a set that feels fresh, dynamic, and open-ended, allowing the energy to evolve naturally as the night progresses.

DONK is based in Breda and is also a co-founder of @ruis_collective, a platform dedicated to community-building, collaboration, and pushing sonic boundaries. His style blends deep rhythms with bleepy textures and hypnotic synths, always guided by a strong sense of tension and release. Whether behind the decks or in the studio, he focuses on locking the crowd into a flow and leading them through carefully shaped waves of sound and movement.

055 BRVTAL PODCAST // M.F.S: Observatory

Up next, we are pleased to present another familiar face, Dani De Lara!  

Dani is an emerging DJ in the London scene having moved here from Spain. His Midweek Session party started as a weekly gathering of friends in his flat, but has quickly grown into staple party in a lot of people's calendars in venues such as Peckham Audio, Venue MOT and Carpet Shop. He shares a similar vision to us in terms of creating a platform for local artists and forming a community around the music so we are more than happy to have him as a part of the Fragment mix series. 

His style is hard to pin down as he can play a broad range of sounds ranging from techno, to hard groove, to house. He would describe himself as a hard groove enthusiast but for this mix, he delivers his interpretation of the Fragment sound whilst staying true to his own style. 

We hope you enjoy listening!

FRAGMENT 010 - DANI DE LARA

My set from Nexus at 'The Chocolate Factory' in brooklyn, nyc. 
Slow & deep techno to break up a chaotic day. 
Set time - 16:30 - 18:00

Live at 'The Chocolate Factory' Brooklyn, NYC - 13.04.2025

Gradient 002 - Takeoff

While Gradient 001 was about setting the tone — stillness, tension, the quiet before movement.
Gradient 002 picks up right where we left off, at 125 BPM, and gradually builds toward 130bpm.

This mix is an invitation to the dancefloor.
Elegant and deep, its grooves are warm and textured.
Hints of dub, traces of house — but the structure remains techno.
It evokes the early hours: controlled momentum, subtle tension, and poise.

If the mix resonates, a like or share helps — no platform behind this project, just slow growth and kind algorithms.

BUILT FROM REPETITION. TOLD THROUGH CHANGE.
