FrenzyPodcast.096 Volster

Today we’re starting with our summer series. As events sadly can’t take place in the Netherlands, but the music is what keeps us going! For the coming 5 weeks, we’ll be releasing a podcast every week to provide you some fine techno to get you through the summer. Our summer series/96th podcast will be kicked off by one of the most noted fresh figures of the Croatian electronic scene: Volster. 

Over the past few years, somewhat mysteriously, Volster has been leaving his signature through productions, DJing, event organisation and running two label imprints, Secession and Out of Place. The main subculture Marko was exposed to in the 90’s was techno, which is hearable in both his productions and mixes.

For this mix he created a one-hour rolling podcast with hints of the characteristic 90’s sound. Enjoy the sound of Volster here!

FrenzyPodcast #096 - Volster

‘This kind of techno I am talking about points inwards’ says Frederic Lindemann about the sound he’s looking to produce. Listen to everything he’s done since his days as a music student and you’ll get a clue as to what he means. With a heavy focus on minutiae and exploration rather than mass-produced hooks, he’s a vehement exponent for the ’soul inherent in the machines’. His purist repetition and gradual modulation are the hallmarks of a stripped-down philosophy and body of work, a kind of sonic Occam’s razor. To see this method in action, just look to Bassiani Podcast 131. This one packs a punch: hyperactive, ruthless and gnarly, Desroi techno in full force.

Dirty Epic welcomes aboard @risataniguchi for its 104th episode of Amplify Series.

Risa Taniguchi is arriving at the forefront of the dark techno wave that has washed over the underground in recent years. The Tokyo born - and based - artist has spent recent years cultivating her own signature sound of distorted textures, fizzing synths and a quietly burning energy, which consumes all who hear it. Delivering shocks and surprises with a curious motif or unpredictable element on her set, for those who like to cut loose in a dark environment, she is the perfect selector.

In the studio as well as the club, Risa focuses on the drums, programming kicks that bring visceral and often aggressive thrills next to a uniquely addictive layer of well designed snares and hi hats. Her signature has become her own subtle and intriguing vocal samples, best heard on Slipped My Mind and This Guy. She adds layers of acid bass and an always raw, edgy aesthetic. Having experienced them first hand whilst living in London, in 2010, Risa also has an enduring love of underground UK bass sounds, which can be heard in many of her tracks. The multi-talented act is also formally trained and a skilled player of the piano, who continues to play daily.

Since her first release back in 2018, Risa has attracted high profile interest from A-list players Charlotte de Witte, Amelie Lens, Chris Liebing, Pan Pot, Dense & Pika, and Radio Slave; has hit the Top 5 of the Beatport's Leftfield Techno Chart and played everywhere from De Marktkantine in Amsterdam to Watergate in Berlin, while setting herself regularly at her resident Womb Tokyo, and of course all the most revered spaces all across Japan including Vent, and Joule Osaka.

Despite the pandemic, the recent years have proven to be a high watermark for Risa as she has delivered a continuous flow of new music, primarily on Pan Pot’s Second State, Dense & Pika’s Kneaded Pains, and Chris Liebing’s CLR.

One of her most notable achievements is her "So Loud EP," which skyrocketed to the top of Beatport's Techno (Raw/Deep/Hypnotic) Top Releases chart. This milestone not only underscores Risa's talent and dedication but also cements her position as a formidable force in the techno genre.

With the support from talents from around the globe, she has constantly been touring worldwide. Additionally, Risa has emerged as a prominent voice in the industry, hosting her own radio show on Japan’s major radio station J-WAVE, and was recently selected as a "Beatport Next" artist by Beatport, highlighting her as a future leader in electronic music.

Amplify Series 104 - Risa Taniguchi

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 121 - Pooja B

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.
