As a Chicagoan, @Jacob-Meehan broadcast signals from behind the console at WLUW 88.7FM, behind the counter at Gramaphone Records, behind the decks at Smart Bar, and behind the scenes as a co-founder of the Men's Room parties. Berlin-based since 2016, he's the program director and a resident DJ of @radio-buttons & an organizing member of  WHOLE - United Queer Festival.

Coincidentally traveling to the US for some gigs at the end of February 2020, Meehan found himself back in Illinois for the following 18 moths, this set was recorded at the Mizz Softee party in Brooklyn, NY before his return to Berlin.

He also co-hosts the excellent @Nightshade_FM radio show, broadcasting live on Cape Cod Community Radio stations WOMR / WFMR.

Claddy LIVE - Untitled - Birrarung Marr 26/3/22

When Radial Gaze meets Nicola Kubebe, the result is Iron Pinky Toad — a title that sounds either like a secret kung-fu move or a lost cartoon book. But don’t be fooled — this one hits hard.


The long-awaited collab brings three original tracks — Phantom Limb, Lights of Phoenix and the title cut Iron Pinky Toad — that effortlessly bridge the gap between slow-burning tribal techno and the raw pulse of new beat nested into an early techno nutshell. Imagine dancing barefoot in a ritual under a disco eclipse — you’re getting close.

To seal the record, Playground Records boss Martin Noise steps in alongside rising sensation Anastasia Zems, pushing the release into full-blown dancefloor sorcery. The groove is deep, the bass is sweaty, and the toad… well, the toad is on fire !

Dropping Friday, July 18, 2025, via THISBE Recordings — available on vinyl and digital. Spin it, stream it, or whisper its name into the smoke at 3AM — either way, the dancefloor won’t know what hit it.

Let the amphibian groove begin.

Being a long time resident DJ somewhere teaches you the sort of skills that stand you out from the pack. Cologne’s Lena Willikens is one such special selector who has very much made Salon Des Amateurs in Dusseldorf her own. As well as serving up singular sets there, she is also a key part of the Comeme Records crew with the likes of Barnt. For them she hosts a regular radio show, and for them she has released her brooding, industrially bleak techno sounds. 

Lena’s influences come from well outside the normal cannon - proto techno, industrial boogie, synthesised disco, outlier house and robot jack all characterise her work, and the set she has served up here. It is one hour of unusual grooves, unsettling atmospheres and metallic textures that are abstract and dehumanised and take you to a raw and visceral place that is hugely intoxicating. Easily one of the best mixes this year so far in our humble opinion!

On Leap Day 2020, my friends at @apte threw what would end up being one of the last underground parties in Seattle before pandemic lockdown. Max thought the recordings from that night had been lost. But magically, exactly one year later, he messaged me with the recording of my set. 

Listening back brings obvious feelings of intense nostalgia for a time where we could all dance together into the early hours of the morning. This was also the first party I've ever played where the cops showed up; the bass from our sound system had set off some alarms in a neighboring building. We didn't get busted, but poor Cam had to play the beginning of his set at a whisper volume until we were sure the coast was clear. 

I miss the excitement and anxiety that comes with directing the mood of a party. The rush you feel when two tracks fit perfectly together, and even the moments when a mix is slightly off or the track you picked falls a bit flat for the room. You take risks and make adjustments on the fly. 

For those who were there that night (and anyone else who cares to listen), I hope this set evokes the same mix of tears and joy that it has for me.
