Originally from Spain, and now based in Berlin, Beatrice is the name of a young artist who started her professional career relatively recently.
For several years, being very influenced by all musical genres since she was a child, she decided to delve deeper into the electronic genre, techno, in particular.
She started DJing in her hometown at the age of 19, after confirming with herself that it was really what she wanted to dedicate the rest of her life to. 
A little later, after releasing her first EP on vinyl with Not A Headliner on Global Offensive Corporation, she decided to move to Berlin, after some months she released a track on Rebekah´s label which gave her the motivation to get more into it professionally.
She began to fill herself with opportunities, like releasing another track on Room Trax label, and slowly she managed to achieve many of her dreams as an artist, being able to play at most of the most emblematic clubs in the world at his young age, such as Berghain, Tresor, and relatively recently becoming one of the first residents of the huge Basement club in New York.

Based in Stockholm/Sweden, Lakej [ Lákeɪ ] emerges from a long heritage of Swedish techno. After many years of explorations to refine his sound, he debuted on Adriana Lopez label Grey Report with the solo EP Structural Cohesion. This debut presented a theme that would guide not only his sound but also his concepts and titles to this current date resulting in his own label and artistic platform: Solitär.
With a huge love for details and rhythmic structures his music has evolved into an introspective, futuristic and yet timeless sound. With intricate textures, atmospheres and deep driving rhythms his music is constantly pushing forward contributing to the current modern underground techno scene.
Since the debut his output has been steady on well established labels such as Semantica, NON series, Faut Section, Nachtstrom Schallplatten, Soma and Kazerne (Mord).

Leipzig – Sendai - Leipzig.

Even if this would have been a very long distance trip, we would not have hesitated to invite highly skilled Japanese techno pioneer Takaaki Itoh to play in Leipzig at one of our regular Connwax nights in Institut für Zukunft. Okay, he would have kown the way to LE since he visited IFZ already in 2016 and 2018.

Well, the year 2020 planned something different for all of us. In the meantime, during our last internal Connwax meeting, we decided to ask Takaaki if he would like to contribute to our young but incredibly good Connwax Selected Series.

For our Connwax Selected #11, Takaaki Itoh who already released on labels such as Mord, Modularz, Warm up and his own imprint Wols is providing us with well selected, ace and highly effective stealth techno (like Hardwax is sayin'...).

たかあきさん、ありがとうございます。(Thank you, Takaaki!)
