Adam X's illustrious music career began in 1990 in Brooklyn, NYC, where he was born and raised. His earliest productions were released during this period, and he quickly gained momentum as one of the most adept DJs on the global underground techno scene.

Alongside pioneer and brother Frankie Bones, he opened the doors of Groove Records in Brooklyn as America's first true outlet for underground electronic music with a direct focus on the techno genre. The Groove Records team also took part in organizing the first techno events ever to take place in NYC, including the legendary Storm Rave that started in 1991. Storm Rave was the first all-techno warehouse party organized on the East Coast of America, featuring line-ups with many up-and-coming artists who would later become global techno cult figures.

The Sonic Groove label was born in 1995 at the upgraded Manhattan location of the shop (which also changed its name from Groove Records to Sonic Groove during the transition). Adam continues to operate the label in an exemplary and innovative way, with over one hundred releases to date, focusing on an assortment of techno music styles from many well established artists across the electronic music spectrum.

A unique perspective and acute knowledge of music can be recognized in his DJ and live sets, which have always retained a unique sense of an uncompromised approach to the dance floor. Adam's approach facilitated acid techno's dominance in the early to mid-nineties, and he nearly single-handedly put the Industrial and EBM Techno cross-over genres on the map for the first two decades of the millennium. Now, Adam returns to his purist techno roots with a hard but deep thought-provoking sound, one combines the past, present and future of this timeless music.

His Traversable Wormhole, ADMX-71, The Secret Initiative, Mass-X-Odus, and X-Crashed side-projects, along with his collaboration with co-conspirator U.K.-based artist Perc in their project AX&P, and with his techno life partner Maedon as Maedon-X on Tresor Records, have all strongly impacted the most discerning audiences.

Adam X has also released his own work on his seminal imprint, as well as releases on some of the most essential labels to exist, both past and present, such as Wax Trax!, Direct Drive, Magnetic North, Peacefrog, Drop Bass Network, CLR, Hands Productions, as well as preeminent contemporary labels like Aufnahme + Wiedergabe, L.I.E.S, Hospital Production, and Pinkman.

Adam currently resides in the electronic music capital of the world, Berlin, Germany. With unparalleled dedication, his activities never cease as he continues his individual tradition of operating on every vital level, from label activity to organizing events in the legendary Tresor club and performing in some of the world's most credible venues—a practice he has maintained since the early '90s. Adam X is a true force whose contribution has reached far into bringing the future forward for electronic music.

Today, we share with you Mandarín's perception of Far Blue. Besides being an artist who puts together beautiful selections, we got familiar with Mandarín as a pivotal part of the community in the first place. A name who always pops up everywhere, and someone who has a vast musical knowledge by being so invested in everything that is put out by other artists and platforms. It only made sense to ask her to create a mix that represents her feelings of Far Blue, as she has been part of the process for a long time now. An artist that truly understands where Far Blue comes from, which she showcases in a versatile one hour and thirty one minutes mix.

'Yet, in a stillness a flicker of hope,
a promise of solace, a way to cope.
For even as red skies fade and elope,
new dreams emerge, with boundless scope'

This week on the podcast, a mix from friend of the festival and celebrated Cartulis resident Junki Inoue. Born in Tokyo but living in London since 2012, Junki's been an avid record collector from an early-age. Few have bags as deep, something shown by this mix, which happens to be an hour section of his set from Dimensions 2022. It's testament to the timeless sound he's cultivated that you'd never tell.

Catch Junki at Dimensions this summer, playing during Cartulis' showcase at Cosmos on the Saturday.

Ari Goldman Live @ B.P.T. April 2024

This live recording is a special one. Voigtmann stepped up to a packed Beach Stage on the first night of the festival and nailed it, his signature style of funk-filled house nearly sank the dancefloor during Picnic's takeover. Thanks Claus 🫡

After a brief hiatus we're back with the 9th Tape by the one they call Otik - 3024 recording artist extraordinaire responsible for the magnificent Cosmosis album as well as the recent EP Cloud Runner.

3024: Otik, can you describe your mix in a single sentence?

"An ethereal and drum heavy journey between 160 and 170bpm, which includes old and new inspirations for my recent ‘Cloud Runner’ EP on 3024."

3024: What DJ inspires you at the moment / has inspired you throughout the years and why?

"I’ve actually talked about this recently, but I’ve always been in awe of Midland’s sets. The way he can read a crowd and create heart stopping moments on the spot with ease has really inspired me to become a better DJ."

3024: What are you working on / what have you got forthcoming?

"I’m currently finishing up two records for the same label, I can’t say who yet but I’m really happy with how they sound. The music focuses a bit more on the dance floor, 4x4 rhythms and sits within the 135-140pm range, which I haven’t experimented with for a while."

The 62nd vurt podcast features a 90-minute vinyl DJ set from Rosillon, a deep techno DJ artist based in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

Rosillon is a vinyl only DJ from Rotterdam, and co-founder of the event organization Embodiment. 
Combining influences and inspirations from a wide variety of music, Rosillon has developed an authentic and conceptual approach to reach his audience. He seamlessly blends elements varying from lush ambient pads, and abstract droning textures, to complex and more straightforward rhythms. 
 His choice to DJ using vinyl only fits this artistic approach and allows him to make people more aware of the beauty and the commitment it takes to play this audio format in a digital era.

This week, we’re happy to share XDB's stunning set from Dimensions ’23. Recorded live from Freerotation’s takeover of the Cosmos last summer, which set the stage perfectly for Steevio's live set afterwards.

Deep, refined and classy selections throughout, something we've come to expect and love about Kosta’s sets.

Today we share a special live recording from Nothing But Nice co-pilots James Andrew & Charley. Best pals and lovely humans to boot, the special chemistry between the pair was evident as they opened up the Beach Stage on the first day of the festival. Kick back and tune in to some classy sunshine house that'll have you pining to be back.

A live recording of Inner Zone's set at Olive Grove last year during Craigie Knowes takeover. Top-tier progressive house from the Transmissions head-honchos, both of whom have been coming to the festival since it's early years and are very much part of the family.
