Takt DJ set recorded at Techno Tuesday Melkweg, Amsterdam - April 2022

"Weakness for fast grooves and sexy percs" that's how the recently moved to Berlin Mara describes her style. Hypnotic, tooly, rhythmic drum loops and chopped vocal parts describe the sound picture of her sets. 
Besides mixing, Mara is getting more and more enthusiastic about producing. Her output at this point is heavily inspired by the likes of Rodhad, Ignez, Alarico and co. 
In Slide "X" you can listen to one of the latest Miss Menace productions. 
In her home in the Rhein Main area she regularly organizes events together with her duo partner https://soundcloud.com/badrobot66 as https://soundcloud.com/mara-simge, covering a numerous range of faster electronic sound.
As a solo artist and producer she stays true to the groove. However, she explores this spectrum enough, so that a wild experimental touch becomes part of her creations.

GROOVE SESSIONS

In the 119th episode of Techno Cartel Podcast we are pleased to host MTD / Rhythm Assembler

Nicola Belligoli was born in Mantua, North Italy.  After several years of interest in electronic music, particularly in techno, and after experiencing the production world, he decides to open his own label together with its historic partner Tracy. 

In the winter between 2010 and 2011 Sonntag Morgen comes to life, initially only with digital releases and then also on wax. With the launch of the label MTD finds room to exhibit the best of his idea of Techno. Hypnotic and rough sounds influenced by dub and experimental moods, but he never stops to research and experiment new sounds or new techniques.

For this reason in 2018 he started his own new solo project “Methodical”, a label platform both vinyl and digital. And more recently he decided to create his new alias Rhythm Assembler, more focused on grooves and minimalistic sound. Today in his discography (both MTD and Rhythm Assembler alias) we can find a large variety of works on several international labels supported by numerous artists of the whole Techno music scene.
