Iraqi-American DJ Lolsnake (she/they) dives deep into electronic music, blending metallic techno, angelic trance, squishy acid, and cosmic bleep into captivating sets that stir heady atmospheres on the dancefloor.✨ As a visual artist, and founder of the queer platform Weeeirdos, she approaches her work with curiosity and charisma, injecting vibrant energy into every space she commands. In 2023, the Berghain regular took their sound worldwide, playing at renowned venues and festivals across Europe and the Americas, including a Boiler Room showcase in Berlin.

Lolsnake has proved to be a vibrant artist on the global scene and a leading example of what happens when one doesn't follow the rules.❤️‍🔥

Lolsnake's SPANDAU20 mixtape immerses you in an industrial soundscape from the start. Mesmerizing drilly synths set the tone before the DJ’s unique metal-infused touch adds an edgy twist. Chill tones sweep in, seamlessly transitioning into pulsating acid vibes at the mix's midpoint. An old-school banger brings the heat, igniting the Mix with nostalgic energy. As the tape winds down, the intensity softens briefly, offering a moment of tranquility. Lolsnake's expert curation guides you through a captivating journey of sonic exploration, showcasing their eclectic style and unwavering creativity.🚀

DTMIX242 - Xhin [Singapore, SINGAPORE]

Sam Coates took to techno like a diligent pupil, falling in love with the genre through labels like CLR in the late '00s. It didn't take long for the student to surpass his proverbial teachers. Almost immediately, the Manchester native was putting out pitch-perfect, functional techno records with everything intricately balanced. The requisite move to Berlin only sealed his fate as a future techno luminary, and by now, based in Kyiv, he's one of techno's most reliable, yet exciting, workhorses. Setaoc Mass records (and those on his label, SK_eleven) are minimalist but colossal, deceptively simple but not easy to pull off. 

We've praised him in these pages for his "sense of economy—how to get the hardest impact out of just a few elements," and that's the idea behind his RA Podcast as well. Put together from records old and new, and intricately layered, Coates's mix is like a time-travelling wormhole connecting disparate eras from techno, and highlighting the genre's most timeless attributes: mechanistic rhythms, careful pacing, rudimentary melodies made out of the strangest sounds and, of course, the power of the bass drop. It's hard to imagine anything that sounds more capital-T techno than this mix, which is a high compliment. It's easy to hear why his records and DJ sets are only more in demand from techno heads across the geographical and generational spectrum.

Domenico Crisci - San Pietro a Majella

After releasing records on L.I.E.S, Jealous God, Semantica and his own label project Summa Cum Laude to name a few, Domenico Crisci quickly rose to prominence among purveyors of timeless techno. One of his earlier records on Jealous God cemented his reputation as a careful engineer of effective, hard, crafty dance floor cuts that comfortably sit next to early works of the genre’s pioneers. Domenico’s sets consist of an eclectic mix of acid, techno and electro with a non-conforming puristic approach. Causing chaos to some of the best clubs in world.
