My commitment to techno started at quite a young age. First I played music at school parties and later I performed at different venues in Hungary, like Kashmír club.  At about the age of 15 I threw myself into writing music and started my own label (Cryptic) about 3 years ago. 

In the past few months my music has been released at Soma, one EP at Developerí’s Olympian and one EP at Materia this year. One of my biggest dreams has come true with Soma releasing my EP soon, after two V.A. releases. 
Later this year another EP is going to be released at Airsound records and some other releases are in progess, too. 

My musics have been played by the biggest names in the genre. I have already played music in France, Malta and Vietnam and I hope I can get to a lot of other countries and perform there,too. I have already played music in all the biggest cities in my country and I have a residence in my hometown. In April 2023 I am going to perform at Deadcode Production’s Hyperspace Budapest, a techno festival with a long tradition with a lot of fans coming partying from Hungary and from some neighbouring countries.
 I would like more and more people to get to know me and like with every DJ, my dream is to be able to perform in a lot of different places in the world.

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @drumcell for its seventy-fifth episode of Amplify Series.

Drumcell was born as Moe Espinosa in Los Angeles’ San Gabriel Valley. Far away from the glamour and glitter of Hollywood, he cut his teeth growing up in a vibrant, culturally diverse neighborhood that still breeds inspiration for his work. San Gabriel Valley is also where he co-founded Droid Behavior in the early 2000s which lead to the infamous Interface warehouse series and lauded techno label Droid Recordings.

A classically trained musician in his youth, Moe came to circulate around the Noise, Punk and Industrial scene, playing guitar and singing in various bands until he discovered the early ‘90s L.A. rave scene. That was when he got in touch with some of the heroic synthesizers of techno’s early years. His enthusiasm for those synthetic sounds lead to a career as a Product Specialist at Native Instruments and to independent musician and engineer work across Los Angeles. Some of his studio contributions include work for Alessandro Cortini of Nine Inch Nails, Maynard James Keenan of Tool, Douglas McCarthy of Nitzer Ebb, Gary Numan, George Clinton, Kool Keith, Qbert, and Cut Chemist.

By then, Moe was chuffed to pursue his own productions. When he handed out his first self-produced, self- pressed vinyls at the Detroit Electronic Music Festival in 2001, he heard them being played from the festival stages the very next day. Since then, he has released original productions or remixed tracks on DROID, CLR, Electric Deluxe, Dystopian, Torque, Silent Steps, Blank Code, Ibadan, Detroit Underground, and much more. This style has caught the attention of many of the world’s top techno jocks, with strong track support from the likes of Luke Slater, Speedy J, and Chris Leibing. This style has also reached numerous prestigious international clubs and festivals. From Berlin's techno mecca Berghain to the main stage of The Movement in Detroit to North American nightclubs like Output and Stereo to festivals across Europe, Latin America, Japan and Australia - Drumcell’s sound can be heard around the world.

In 2016, Drumcell debuted his ambient project HYPOXIA on his experimental label BL_K NOISE. Inspired by science fiction soundtracks and the sounds of artists like John Carpenter, Wendy Carlos, Goblin and Vangelis, the Hypoxia release steps away from the dance floor and into a broader space of contemplative drama and rich texture. Producing infinite movement with his Buchla and Eurorack systems, Hypoxia all hardware performance has been heard at highly curated atmospheres from Berghain in Berlin to Brooklyn’s Greyscale Series at Output to pop-up concerts on the LA River.

Drumcell explores and discovers the analogue world as much as the digital world of music production, to finally combine them into his very own raw, suspenseful and hypnotic style. Influenced by a myriad of music as well as science fiction and machines, he has developed an addiction to analog synthesis which has led to ceaseless experiments in his studio in search of new, mind-expanding sounds. As one of the most esoteric techno artists in North America, his sound disregards genre limitations and is everything but conventional techno.

Amplify Series 075 - Drumcell

For our third edition of our podcast series, we are delighted to feature the Hardgroove legend, Goncalo M. This marks his first recorded podcast since 2019, making it a significant honor for us to have him on board. Born in Portugal, he embarked on his DJ career at the tender age of 19. Since then, Goncalo has cultivated an impressive reputation by performing at venues and festivals across Europe, South America, and Asia. In 2004, Goncalo launched his own techno label, "Intuition Recordings Pt," and in 2013, he established a new label called "Global Techno Movement Records." Both of these labels have consistently secured top positions in the techno charts, releasing high-quality techno music.

GROOVE2000 PRESENTS GONCALO M #03

Under the cover of his extra-terrestrial pseudonym, UFO95’s powerful rhythms are the culmination of a life lived around music in many forms. One could say he’s come full circle: as the son of parents who lived above the nightclub they owned and ran when he was younger. Adolescent forays in rock led him to study sound engineering, and eventually right back to the dancefloor, where he now plays exclusively live sets patchworked together from his own productions. From unorthodox beginnings, Killian Vaissade has more than grown into his role. UFO95 is his pandemic-era brainchild, a project that’s taken off at breakneck speed, collaborative works with Mama Told Ya label-boss Anetha, an appearance on Amniote Editions x Mala Junta’s VA compilation and the launch of his very own ARCHIVE imprint (June 2023) just a few of the feats he’s managed to pull off in his short career. Expect more to come in the form of driving, adamantine beats. Bassiani Podcast 187 is every bit the furious, impassioned sound his fans have come to expect, an hour of chaotic and thrilling techno that will have you on the edge of your seat.

"The set was recorded at home in Amsterdam with 2 CDJs and 1 mixer. I selected around 120 tracks to work with, aiming for a 1 hour mix. After that I chose 2 tracks to start with and from then on I pick my tracks on the fly and see where it ends. It’s all in there, old and new stuff, upcoming material, deep techno, peak time techno, minimalistic, hypnotic and sci-fi. Enjoy the ride."

Thinking of Dimi Angelis we rapidly associate his name with pounding sound, high quality releases and an iconic trajectory. Being faithful to his sound, Dimi has evolved over the years to one of the most renowned producers and DJs worldwide. Going back in time to the end of the nineties, Dimi has since then been one of the key figures shaping the Techno scene we appreciate nowadays in The Netherlands. 
His path was marked by releasing on top notch labels such as Axis Records, Warm Up Recordings, Mord, KEY vinyl, Tar Hallow and the co-owned label A&S with Jeroen Search. This led him to play in major techno institutions such as Berghain, Awakenings, Dekmantel and Tresor. Another fruit of Dimi’s creativity is his solo label ANGLS, which provides straightforward and ruthless techno. On February 29.02. his track "Natrix ' comes out on Bassianis brand new label - BASDGTL, in April we await Dimis next EP for his aforementioned label ANGLS and in May his "Incubus" EP will get released as vinyl on Tar Hallow. In April Dimi embarks on his next China tour, followed by North America in June.

Awakenings Podcast S291 - Dimi Angélis

Emerging as Phase Fatale in 2014, Berlin-based DJ, producer and label owner, Hayden Payne is rewriting the discourse of Techno with his cross-pollination of gnarly basslines, sensual narratives and mind-control mechanics. Demonstrating his vision through an authentic, highly curated sonic-lens of techno, Payne’s rhythmic excursions draw on both his roots in the New York and Berlin underground as well as his reputable experience performing to dancefloors globally. Exemplified by long-standing tenures as a resident for esteemed institutions such as Berghain as well as KHIDI in Georgia's capital Tbilisi, Payne demonstrates a resolute understanding of harnessing club synergy across his productions and DJ sets. 

With three full length albums under his belt, including the 2020 sophomore release ‘Scanning Backwards’ on Berghain’s Ostgut Ton, Payne’s sonic signature pushes the boundaries of techno sensibilities and reflects the zeitgeist whilst staying true to his own vision. Wasting no time since his solo project’s inception to showcase his expert sonic ability, Payne has toured globally performing at renowned clubs and festivals worldwide, releasing numerous records on labels including Jealous God, Ostgut Ton, and his own label BITE. 

Payne co-launched the BITE imprint in 2018 as a means to platform cutting-edge sound production across a diverse roster of international artists. Along with fellow Soft Crash protagonist Pablo Bozzi pioneering ‘Italo Body Music’, BITE’s seminal synthesis of curated techno solidifies the label as a tour de force taste-maker within electronic music with showcases worldwide including Berghain and their 5 year anniversary compilation ‘Shedding Skin’ in 2023. 

Hailing from post-punk roots, Payne draws on his depth of musical knowledge and multitude of influences. His merging of nuanced references and high concept narratives remain geared towards the dancefloor at its core, subtleties of his multifarious sonic palette act as the foundations for his layered wall of sound.

DifferentSound invites Uun (Detroit)

The DifferentSound Podcast #295 welcomes Uun! 
Having been producing and performing since 2010, Uun has been a staple of the techno scene for many years. His mind melting live performance have been featured at many institutions, including Movement Festival in Detroit, Tresor in Berlin, Khidi in Tbilisi, and Basement in NYC. Resident Advisor referred to this ability to work within many different imprints and styles as “quietly infiltrating techno”, and compared his music to the latter days of the Sandwell District. He is perhaps best known as a producer, having released substantial work on some of the most respected underground techno labels, including Mord, Semantica, and Soma. The genre defining record store Hard Wax described Uun's sound as a "straight ahead techno juggernaut." He also has his own label titled Ego Death, where he releases his most genre defying material.

Deluka is the Naples-born/Berlin based name behind Friedrichshain record store and label No Signal Records. With roots as an eager acolyte of the much fêted rhythms of the American Midwest, he switched house for techno and got to work at an early age. It was 2011 when he made it to Berlin, and not long before he started playing venues like Tresor’s little brother OHM. A few years later he started No Signal with the release of his deeply atmospheric EP ‘Echoes’ (2021), and followed it up with another eight, a mixture of his and other artists’ work. Driven by a profound passion for his craft, his productions and performances are a throbbing, fully immersive protocol that holds attention in its iron grip. Endlessly experimenting and refining, his reputation as master music maker has spread like a prairie fire throughout the world of techno, not least of which due to releases on labels like AMOTIK+, KSR and Future Architecture (including his most recent ‘Heroes’ EP - May 8th). Think sparsely populated soundscapes, minimal but groovy peak-time fare. For Bassiani Podcast 214 he lands another formidable blow with just over three hours of circling drones and heavily resonating beats; bare-bones techno that compels and entrances, pays homage to the sounds that made him and remains unpredictable in its innovative sleight of hand.

KHIDI Podcast 138: NINA FARRINA

Somov Records head Ignez is up next with an unmissable techno number that’ll make you sweat. A younger self dropped the stuffy confines of his childhood on the Dutch coast and fled to Berlin as so many do, and there began to cultivate a sound that has placed him firmly among some of his talented and much talked about peers. The DJ/producer credits the seaside upbringing with instilling a deep respect for the rolling tides and endless sands, natural references that are deeply embodied in his hypnotising and immersive rhythms. His occasional return to home turf as resident of Amsterdam-based party series Eerste Communie has also played a significant role in his musical development and found him willing publishers in the likes of Token and SK_eleven, as well as a sparring partner in Berlin heavyweight Rødhåd (with whom he shares two EPs). It’s techno in purest form, bewitching loops that pulsate like those long ago shores. In that sound his ascetic beats are flanked by the most minimal detail and rely on raw percussive might to mesmerise his listener. A dancefloor portal to another world; transcendent stuff for sure. From small club settings to festivals on a larger scale Ignez brings a kind of magic that’s hard to turn a deaf ear to, Bassiani Podcast 220’s proof that he’ll pull those tricks at home too. A hour of virgin, mechanical beats that daze and enthral, a staunch reminder of techno’s visceral power and of why, for so many, it’s such a ruling passion.
