Puur, full of energy, focused. Amazing set! Thank you!

Steve Rachmad’s techno project STERAC has for many years been a seminal force in his native Netherlands and beyond. Releasing over 100 releases across the much feted Delsin, Klockworks, Mote-Evolver, Tresor and others, he’s become something of a cult figure, and dubbed a father of Detroit in The Netherlands for added points. It’s hard to imagine a more venerated artist and there’s good reason why, Rachmad’s fearless approach to production puts him a cut above many of his peers, often taking pure feeling and a collection of well worn machines as a starting point and trusting his gut along the path to finished product. For Bassiani Podcast 190, the Dutch master of techno delivers a thorough lesson in expert mixing. From orchestral strings to utilitarian bleeps, Rachmad’s sound bridges a gap no one else can. An ode to the motor city with a healthy measure of string composition thrown in, recorded live at the club during the Token X Reclaim Your City night on November 3rd.

Swedish DJ and label head Philippa Pacho began her career in the illegal party scene of Stockholm. As a resident of Under Bron since 2012, she has gone on to become one of the most in-demand DJs, renowned for her legendary marathon sets, razor sharp mixing, and powerful, radiant approach to techno.

About the mix Philippa said: 

“I tried to keep a ’festival in nature’ - theme whilst recording this, less peak moments and more groovy, hypnotic and repetitive/trippy, more leaning to what I would play at a closing set.”

For BASEMENT 008, we've turned things over to Holden Federico.   A favorite of the NY underground, Federico holds a reputation both for his comprehensive knowledge of techno's most obscure corners and for his capacity to channel his sprawling collection into DJ sets of exceptional poise and vibrancy. Raised in Pennsylvania, an early fascination with software production led him from live music into an obsession with track building and the limitless possibilities of electronic music. In 2020, he launched @90stechno.redux, an online platform that catalogues some of the finest, and often nearly-unheard, examples of the genre's golden age. Drawing heavily on the Detroit-Berlin axis, Federico exemplifies the focus and discernment of a purist, engaging with techno both as a true art form and as a near-spiritual discipline.

Responsible for a handful of head-turning releases via the likes of MORD, Hayes and Float Records this past couple of years, on-the-rise techno producer Mathys Lenne clocks in our series with a mindtrip that’ll knock your socks off. Championing a sound both deep-diving, rugged and hi-intensity thru and thru, the Frenchman treats us to a storm of steely firepower and post-apocalyptic brainwaves. His mix of cerebral wares and shape-shifting, industrial-informed machine talk takes us straight back to the heyday of raving, when the sound we all love was not just a merchandise, but meant a whole new perspective on the world as we knew it.

PREMIERE | Matilda - Grems Attack [Adopt Bae]

Simone Zino returns to Ratis Records with a powerful new three-track EP. As the owner of Ratis, Zino makes a statement with a diverse and high-impact collection that explores different shades of Techno while staying true to his unmistakable sound. Opening the EP is "Labyrinth", a hypnotic and groovy journey marked by rolling rhythms, intricate percussions, and a deep, trippy atmosphere that pulls the listener into its maze-like structure. Next is "90s", a full-bodied, groove-driven track that channels the raw energy and attitude of classic 90s Techno while updating it with Zinos modern production edge. Its a floor-filler with character and punch. Closing the release is "Apocalisse", a melodic and emotionally charged piece that builds tension through dramatic synth work and cinematic sound design, offering a more introspective take on the Techno spectrum. Simone Zinos return to his own imprint is both a nod to his roots and a fresh step forward, showcasing his versatility and refined approach to contemporary Techno.
