Matthias Geerts - a new face in the electronic music scene. He expertly breathes new life into vintage songs with a contemporary touch, bridging the gap for a new generation of music lovers. He expertly puts together his sets, merging techno, trance, rave and contemporary elements. He creates a high energy and euphoric atmosphere that makes the basement groove. What sets Matthias apart is his deep appreciation for electronic music classics. In a world where electronic music is constantly evolving, Matthias Geerts remains rooted. A gentle reminder of the tunes that shaped the history of electronic music.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: How was your first DJ gig?
𝙈𝘼𝙏𝙏𝙃𝙄𝘼𝙎: I think my first paid gig was at Club Vaag. Of course, I was super nervous—playing on a proper sound system for the first time felt intense and kind of magical. Luckily, they usually give new artists the opening slot, so you can ease into it as the crowd starts arriving. But honestly, it was amazing. So many people came up to me afterward saying they loved it, asking for my name—it was really flattering. I was already used to getting attention on social media, but this was different. It felt personal. It really moved me.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: Why did you decide to start producing and djing?
𝙈𝘼𝙏𝙏𝙃𝙄𝘼𝙎: DJing became a new way to express myself. I’ve been obsessed with techno and trance since I was younger, and I wanted to try something outside my comfort zone. I’ve never really had a "full-time job" in the traditional sense—I know that sounds privileged, but I worked hard to get to where I was. At some point, fashion and content creation stopped fulfilling me. I felt empty.
I’ve played the trumpet for over 10 years, from when I was a kid into my early 20s. I knew classical music wasn’t where my heart was anymore—but electronic music was. Producing came later. I’m still taking baby steps, but it’s helping me carve out my own sound.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: As a newcomer, are you still finding your style
𝙈𝘼𝙏𝙏𝙃𝙄𝘼𝙎: I think so, yes. I’ve gone through phases—starting with 135 BPM techno, then shifting to harder techno, then dipping into more commercial trance. Now I’m finding myself somewhere in the middle of underground trance, hypnotic grooves, hard house, techno, and melodic breaks. And yeah, I know it sounds cliché, but I really try to tell a story. I take my time building up a set, allowing for breaks and melancholic moments—those emotional pauses matter to me just as much as the rhythm and energy. I think I’m getting close to the sound I’ve always wanted to create.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: We are celebrating Pride Month. Do you have anything to say about it?
𝙈𝘼𝙏𝙏𝙃𝙄𝘼𝙎: Absolutely. Pride Month is such an important moment—especially with everything happening in the world right now. Honestly, I don’t even have the words for some of it. But what’s most important is remembering that Pride started as a protest. It’s not just rainbows and parties; we have to keep using our voices, especially for the issues that go beyond the surface. Visibility, activism, and solidarity still matter deeply.

𝙑𝙎𝙇𝙆: Any big plans for the near future?
𝙈𝘼𝙏𝙏𝙃𝙄𝘼𝙎: Yes! I’m working on my first trance EP, which I’m hoping to release in November. Also, I’ve got my first overseas gig coming up this August—in Montreal, Canada, for Fierté Montréal. It’s part of their Pride festival, and I couldn’t be more excited.

Listen, enjoy and never forget:

VESELKA PODCAST 093 | MATTHIAS GEERTS

For the 70th edition of the Set the Mood series, the spotlight turns to UNALOME, a techno DJ based in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.

Embodying the essence of her name, which signifies the path of freedom, UNALOME’s sets are a vibrant fusion of organic elements, psychedelic textures, and tribal rhythms. Her sound ranges from deep and dubbed-out to more groovy and driving techno. She enjoys blending these different shades, bridging music from the past and the present.

For UNALOME, a perfect opening set is shaped by the atmosphere of the moment — the vibe, the time, the location, and the artists on the lineup. This philosophy inspired the idea behind this podcast: to record her opening set at Balans. Capturing that moment live felt like the most authentic approach.

Unfortunately, her recorder failed during the set. But with the records still fresh in her memory and bag, she decided to re-record the mix exactly as she played it the night before.

Balans is a techno event and label based in Nijmegen, curated by Tripeo and Locus Error. It’s a night created by and for true electronic music enthusiasts, which makes it something truly special.

For this edition, UNALOME had the honor of opening the night for two powerhouse women in the scene: OZUM and INEL. She began her mix deep and dubby, gradually building up the energy as the night unfolded.

Enjoy this vinyl-only mix and the beautiful tracks from these inspiring artists and labels.
