The entire archive of the Summer Sundays mixes I made. Also nice to hear the evolution in my style throughout those particular years :)

Summer Sundays

Summer.Sundays.09 - Entourage

Raised in Australia, now based between LA and London, AK SPORTS has become fast loved for their melting pot of rave, techno, trance, electro, breakbeat and hybrid psy-trance. An artist whose productions have caught a lot of attention, after their label Club Madhouse launched with a VA in 2024 listed as one of Mixmag’s ‘Best Album Of 2024’ following Dummy Mag
crowning AK as ‘one of the best emerging producers’. AK SPORTS’s remix of Peaches ‘Pussy Mask’ was a release highlight last year, and now reveals their next EP ‘TIMELINE SHIFT’ due out on the 8th August. Released as singles, it kicked off with the high-octane 'IN DA CLERB WE ALL FAM’ released on the 15th of May, blending pumping hard groove rhythms with chunky house chords and their own vocals.

‘FEED THE FREQUENCY’ (PUSH THE TEMPO) due out on the 5th June turns up the heat, emulating 90’s modular techno and a vocal line even The Prodigy would be proud of, courtesy of AK, using their vocals for the first time on any release across the whole EP, launching a new chapter in their career. “A big inspiration for this track was modular synth work and the GOATS underworld. I wanted to emulate the hypnotic yet poetic and uplifting vocal style that is somewhere between singing and talking” – says AK.

“A track that is like my sets, it’s hard, fast and fun”. A statement that sums up the energy of ‘WORK HARDER’ the third single to be released on the 11th July. AK strips back the production with this single, but keeps the tempo and energy high, creating a playful club banger, with some bouncy electro elements. “You get the jist, it's naughty and a little nice” – adds AK.

Everyone knows the only way to properly close out the EP like this is with a bang, and so ‘HELLRAISER’ does just that with breakneck Hard Techno energy and an absolutely ripping bassline. “I wrote these lyrics thinking about the iconic Keith Flint, forever in our hearts and on the dancefloor”.

Like AK’s sets that are hard, fast and sun, this EP touches on various moods and influences all under the neo-rave umbrella, as it waves its way between 90’s and hard techno, big beat, hard groove and hard dance with AK’s vocals and playful punk energy as the through line.

AK SPORTS’s ‘TIMELINE SHIFT’ EP’ will be released on Club Madhouse on the 8th August, following singles ‘FEED THE FREQUENCY’ (PUSH THE TEMPO) on the 5th June, and ‘WORK HARDER’ on the 11th July.

OBSCUUR Podcast 41: Nastya Dikikh

A selection with no reason.
Found sounds. Unnamed files. Half-finished truths.
Nothing was planned. Everything is real.
These tracks don’t belong together – but somehow, they do.
No names. No structure. No message.
Just this:
You press play.
And it moves.

Nothing To See

AELX, based in Hanover, discovered his passion for DJing years ago. He experimented with many genres before developing a sound characterised by hypnotic rhythms, timeless grooves and deep atmospheres. Techno became his main focus, guiding each set with feeling rather than following trends.

This mix , which is vinyl only , features a spontaneous selection of records chosen in the moment and guided by instinct. The result is a raw, dynamic depth that invites listeners into a space where the groove takes precedence and time fades away.

| Biography |

Psytox (aka Norman Bates, MDNT:SON, Didier Beydts, Svemirski, PSTX) has been dj'ing since 1989. Rather than being pigeonholed into one style of music, he mixes very eclectic sets, including elements of acid, house, techno, deephouse, minimal, breakz, d'n'b,... . It has brought him to a wide variety of venues in different scenes.
Together with Edward Molton he also founded his own imprints Coincidence and Coincidental Records, who have been releasing Techno from artists like Jeroen Search, 6SISS, Esther Duijn, Ruffneck Prime, Rebekah, Marcel Fengler, Developer, Delta Funktionen, Charlotte de Witte, Conforce, Mary Velo, Tom Hades, Layr and many more. He also produces and releases on Rhythm Converted and Be As One. He also promotes his own nights at Kompass Klub, Café d'Anvers and Tomorrowland's infamous "Rave Cave". So hard working is definitely a suitable description.

He has been known to play extensive sets (up to 15 hours straight) at established events such as Tomorrowland, Kozzmozz, Thé Dansant, Wanted Berlin, Extrema Outdoor, Lost Theory Festival,… and venues such as Kompass Klub, Now & Wow, Other Side, Zodiak, Tresor, Cafe d'Anvers, Fuse, Chalet, Charlatan, Decadance and Silo to name just a few.
