A surefire provider of deep, complex weapons for the dance floor and beyond, French-born, Berlin-based artist Kangding Ray has been minting some of the most strikingly unique techno records in recent memory. His body of work for some of the most reputed record labels out there, including Raster Noton, Stroboscopic Artefacts and his own outlet, ara, cuts an introspective path, halfway modular-leaning escapology and beat-driven abstraction. From his background in architecture, his musical approach retains that fondness for structure and the creation, or re-creation of space, both as an actual object and a mental projection. Immerse yourself into KR's minutely designed headspace with this two-hour deep and intimate audio dive.

Reclaim Your City 602 | Kangding Ray

We’re beyond hyped to have the legendary @sunilsharpe stepping in for the latest SPND20 Mixtape!🔥

Sunil is known for his fast-paced, dynamic selections and a mixing style that’s truly one of a kind. With a career spanning decades, he’s made a name for himself as a true “turntable wizard,” producer, label owner, party organiser, radio host, and much more. Whether it’s on the decks at Bassiani, Berghain, Tresor, or running his own Earwiggle label, Sunil continues to push boundaries and represent the best of underground electronic music.

This mixtape is a journey through the many shades of techno—expect hard-hitting beats, funky, wonky rhythms, and seamless transitions that build up the tempo in Sunil’s signature style. With some fresh cuts mixed in with a few older gems, and everything from raw, industrial techno to acid, trippy/hypnotic vibes, and even some electro and jungle flavors to keep things unpredictable. This one is a must-listen for any techno lover. Recorded using his trusty Technics 1200 MK5G turntables, it’s the perfect mix of long, teasing blends and lightning-fast transitions. If you’re ready for a proper lesson in mixing, head over to our SC now and get locked in. 🎛️⚡️

Iraqi by blood/Oaklander by upbringing, Lolsnake is a Berlin-based visual artist and DJ whose fulminating sets have taken centre-stage at some of the city’s most vaunted hangouts. It was studying neuroscience that took them from California to the UK, and there that they first discovered a taste of the creative freedom that club culture could offer. In 2014 they made the switch to the German capital, where a chance opportunity to throw a party at makeshift Neukölln locale Internet Explorer kickstarted a spate of FLINTA-focused parties that eventually landed them regular gigs at Tresor’s proxy venue OHM. From there the scope grew and both spoken word/performance art series queeeirdos and the later iterations of dance-geared and Säule-based party programme Weeeirdos took flight. An assemblage of creative disciplines and artists from visual art to comedy to VTSS to Ellen Allien, Parrish Smith and Schacke, the format has been a breeding ground for ideas and sounds, first in Berlin and now farther afield in cities like Prague and Copenhagen. As for their own output as in-demand selector, it’s fiery, arrow quick techno, a coup de foudre from the heart that takes no prisoners, be that at De School, Blitz or Transcendence Seoul. Unsurprisingly there’s a music label in the works, and this next instalment to whet your appetite while you wait. Bassiani Podcast 223 is a heady three-hour mix recorded live at the club back in June. Galloping beats bent on worldwide acclaim, tenacious and razor-sharp techno from a singular and fast-rising musical talent.

Initially, I recorded this mix just for myself to get in the new year's eve mood – it’s full of trance, acid tracks, and everything in between, all 90s favorites. I decided to share it with you so you’d have something nice to play in the background tonight.
And, this is the start of my podcasts :)

Have a lovely New Year!

REC33 w/ Mama Snake

Last year, on November 30th, Fuse welcomed Denmark's Mama Snake to our control room in light of her Amniote Editions night.  With an untamed aura spreading through the space, the dark hours were marked by hypnotic, slightly mental, and utterly intense temperaments.

Snapping between writhing acid lines, crisp tribal rhythms, and trance-laced techno, her selections struck a perfect balance between the meditative and the manic. The floor was hers: fluid, fierce, and full of intent. A reminder that mastery doesn’t always shout; it listens, reacts, and dares to draw outside the lines when the need knocks.
