Keepsakes

Episode 138 of the Voight-Kampff mix series featuring Ceili.

This week we have the one and only, Ceili. The man needs no introduction as his past speaks for itself, being the head of the rough and ready labels Ceili Collective and, more recently, Mála Ádh. With an intense supply of original tracks behind him, both unreleased and also releases on labels such as  Lobster Theremin and Ophism among others, he regularly leaves a burning hole behind him on the decks, mainly around London in clubs like FOLD among venues - and if he isn't behind the booth, he is populating the airwaves with regular shows with a multitude of insanely well curated guests on Rinse FM and Threads radios. The mix contains a delightful selection of hard techno, mixed to perfection as usual. We hope you enjoy!

MindTrip Podcast 089 - Carlotta Jacobi

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @keepsakes for its seventy-ninth episode of Amplify Series.

Keepsakes, the alias of British-New Zealand producer and DJ James Barrett, has been a strong and distinctive voice in techno since rising to fame through his Stygian Concrete Works and Weapons Grade Manic EPs back in 2014. Since then he has showcased his powerful and menacing, yet often cheeky and playful, productions on influential labels including South London Analogue Material, Perc Trax, MORD, Earwiggle and KAOS.

Furthermore, he founded the Haven club night alongside Jaded Nineties Raver in Tāmaki Maraukau, Aotearoa (Auckland, New Zealand) in 2015 - aiming to introduce clubbers to the experimental and harder side of techno in a city completely devoid of this music. In 2018 Haven also expanded into a vinyl-focused record label - going on to release many leading international artists including VTSS, Tommy Holohan, New Frames, Peder Mannerfelt, Ayarcana, Ansome, and Ryan James Ford, as well as becoming the main home for Barrett’s own productions.

Now located in Ōtautahi, Aotearoa (Christchurch, New Zealand) - following several years in Berlin hitting the European club circuit - he is focused on bringing his tough and eclectic sound to dance floors worldwide, with regular appearances at international techno institutions providing a platform for his formidable DJ sets.

Amplify Series 079 - Keepsakes

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @blush-response for our 120th episode of Amplify Series.

BLUSH_RESPONSE is the vehicle for Cuban/American musician Joey Blush's research into the sonic dimension. Reports occur at sporadic intervals, usually in concurrence with the discovery of new planes of existence. Born in Miami, and now stationed in Berlin, Blush has brought his sound experiments to a worldwide audience. He has toured around the world as a solo artist, and as a member of groups such as Scar the Martyr and Front Line Assembly.  He is also a renown sound designer, having done work for companies like Elektron, Yamaha, Arturia, and programming on records from Fear Factory, Cristian Castro, and many more.  

Blush expresses his sound through deep meditation with his electronic instruments, focusing on the interaction between human and machine.  He seeks to both influence and harness the unpredictability of complex electronic instrumentation, in an effort to create an direct expression of his emotions.  This sonic ritualism is exemplified in his prolific reporting of fractalized audio sculpture.  

Blush owns the MEGASTRUCTURE_ label, a haven for sounds on the fringes of reality. You can find his releases on labels such as Artoffact Records Schematic, Aufnahme + Wiedergabe, Ant-Zen, Sonic Groove, and his own MEGASTRUCTURE_.

Amplify Series 120 - Blush Response

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @pooja_b_ikigai for our 121st episode of Amplify Series.

Pooja B delivers raw, textured, and boundary-pushing techno that channels an expansive range of her sonic identity. Her recent appearances include Tresor, RSO, Gegen, Genau Turin & KHIDI. She hosts an event series called Majja (it means fun in Marathi, her mother tongue) and fun is for everyone. The event attracts not only the club kids but also the mature raver & sober ones, queers & allies alike, who may want to engage in music, food and art. With Indian roots and based out of Berlin, she has also curated a diaspora-focused Tresor New Faces, to bring forth BIPOC perspectives in electronic music. She constantly aims to carve space with intention. A recent SLAM Radio feature adds to her growing momentum. She also co-hosts The Coping* Club, a radio show on mental health on refuge worldwide Radio. Like her, her music is often political—drawing a global community that supports her with heart and fervour.

This is snippet of high-pressure defiant techno set taken from a recent secret rave. Gritty and unrelenting, just like her. Enjoy!

Amplify Series 124 - Kmyle (live in Paris)

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @materielle_music B2B @marienyx for our 122nd episode of Amplify Series.

Materielle is a Los Angeles-based techno artist whose deep, dub-driven sound draws heavily
from the rhythmic syncopations and atmospheric textures of 90s Detroit techno. Fusing
elements of heavy, hypnotic basslines with intricate patterns and immersive reverb, Materielle’s
music taps into the raw energy and experimental edge of underground techno, with an
emphasis on subtle detail and emotional depth.

A self-taught producer with a decade-long career in music technology, Materielle has cultivated
a distinctive sonic palette shaped by the teachings of pioneering artists like Rødhåd, Ben Klock,
Claudio PRC, and Richie Hawtin. The project’s name, Materielle, is inspired by the delicate art
of weaving—an analogy for the artist's approach to music, where sound is crafted through
layers and textures, much like fabrics are woven together to create something new.

Since 2019, Materielle has honed her craft as a DJ, transitioning seamlessly into production with her track singles, Satin and Organza on Delusional Records and the release of her debut EP, Fabrique on Northern Parallels. The EP, which features the tracks Nylon and Neoprene, with
remixes from Mike Derer and Raytek, has garnered attention for its unique blend of hypnotic
grooves and emotionally charged atmospherics. Materielle’s recent release, a remix of Orly
Gal’s track, The Man Without a Face, was chosen by Beatport for their November 2024 Techno
Shortlist (peak/driving), further solidifying her growing presence in the techno scene. In early
2025, she contributed the track Kevlar to the Synthetik Minds VA Compilation, a benefit release
supporting Los Angeles fire relief efforts. The compilation features a lineup of major artists from across the global techno scene, underscoring Materielle’s commitment to both artistic
collaboration and community impact. Fall of 2025 she releases her next single “Chiffon” on the
forthcoming Split Checks Records VA Compilation.

Marie Nyx is a Los Angeles–based DJ, producer, and label head whose sound bridges electro, techno, and experimental electronica with roots in post-punk, new wave, and darkwave. She has brought her infectious, high-energy style to stages at HARD Summer, CRSSD Festival, Insomniac events, and prominent underground institutions like The Lot Radio. With releases on Delusional Records, Boysnoize Records, Obskur Music, Synthetik Sounds, Hidden Symbols, and Dark Heaven, Marie continues to push boundaries as both an artist and tastemaker. In 2025, she founded Synr, a label dedicated to forward-thinking electro, techno, and experimental sounds, solidifying her place as a driving force in the underground electronic scene.

Tripalium Podcast 24 - Keepsakes

Keepsakes, the moniker of British-born, New Zealand-residing producer and DJ James Barrett, has been going from strength to strength in the murky world of techno in the past few years. With EPs pressed to wax on Ansome and Ossian’s South London Analogue Material and Germany’s Mindcut, and 2 European tours under his belt in just the past 12 months, Keepsakes has been working hard to bring his unique and gritty sound from the shores of the South Pacific to the spangled masses in Europe.

This mix is made up of much of the music he played on his last EU tour in February 2017, and a bunch of new tracks from the friends he has made on tour!
