Developer, one of LA’s known bright sparks, has long been a mainstay of the city’s booming techno community. His inspiration to the overall scene carries much weight, being a relentless producer and worldwide travelling DJ and live act with a high output of quality music. Reaching into far corners of experimentation, he consistently progresses his journey into outstanding sound design and interesting takes. Running the magnificent Modularz and Olympian record labels, he also lists contributions to Svreca’s Semantica, Kessell’s Granulart, Hans Bouffmyhre’s Sleaze and Christian Wünsch’s Tsunami Records, amongst others. This exclusive live recording is from a recent gig in Phoenix, Arizona and wasting no time, it launches into a heady groove and juddering percussion. A primetime slice of raw analogue power, hypnotic tendencies and haunting textures, Developer uncovers a deep and twisted techno world of tectonic shifts and underground grit in his mesmerising style…

DTMIXS47 - Developer LIVE [Los Angeles, USA]

ES.

Ribé nació y creció en la sierra de Madrid, en un entorno alejado de la gran urbe, rodeado de naturaleza, observando la ciudad desde las alturas bajo la luz de un manto de estrellas. 

Le encanta encerrarse en el estudio, sumirse en el caos para encontrar el equilibrio. Para eso utiliza su propio método de trabajo. Primero elige los sintetizadores, graba sin restricciones todo lo que va surgiendo, más tarde edita, secuencia y por último termina la faena mezclando. Sus 20 años trabajando con Protools, le ha transformado en un experto en la edición de audio, aprovechando y exprimiendo cada audio grabado al máximo. 

Gracias a esta disciplina Ribé ha logrado trabajos de una calidad incuestionable como Acute EP - Aine (Polegroup sub label), Harmonic Rain Ep + Tested Signal LP (Nonplus records) , Palette Ep (Warm up), Las Noches LP (Polegroup), Order in Chaos LP (Axis), Nom de Plume EP (Faut Section), Klockworks 035 - Con Roll Dann, El Camino EP (Semantica), La penumbra EP (Polegroup) y La Tempestad EP (Eartoground). Además ha colaborado con sellos como Hayes, Token, Mord, Tremsix, Non Series…

Aunque una de sus pasiones sea la producción, cuando Ribé se sube a una cabina demuestra todo su potencial. Su actitud, su ecualización, su empatía frente a la mesa de mezclas o realizando un live, le ha llevado a recorrer medio mundo siendo protagonista en clubs y festivales. Aquasella Festival(SP), Uptodate Festival (Polonia), Tresor(Berlin), RSO(Berlin), Tama(Polonia), Mondo(Madrid), Utopía(Madrid), Khidi(Georgia), Melkweg(Amsterdam), Lanna(Gijon), Garage y Razzmatazz(BCN), Metro Dance Club(Alicante), Family Club(Toledo) o Prisma(Sevilla) son algunos de los espacios donde Ribé ha dejado su marca.

El pasado año Ribé ha participado en los Showcase de Polegroup, eventos que han encandilado a los amantes de techno y que han sido alabados por la crítica especializada. Además de sus releases en Pole, ha conseguido un sueño que llevaba persiguiendo desde hace más de una década: publicar en Klockworks. 

Se podría asegurar que Ribé es techno puro, aunque hoy en día la definición de techno es un poco ambigua, Ribé sigue fiel a su sentimiento, a las raíces de este sonido.

Chris Liebing & Luke Slater - Awakenings New Years 2023

I wrap things up with more NY inspired tech-house, a few updates on some of my favorite classics, followed by some nostalgic melodies. By the very end, the small group that remained paid me an ovation that left me a little stunned and emotional. It takes years to cultivate local support like this, and it’s something I’ll never forget.

With music from: M.Rodriguez; Frankie Bones; Todd Terry; Angel Heredia; Mabel Caamal; DJ Gregory & more.

Pig Dance 2 (Part 3: For Me)

The meat of the night features the nastiest tech, tribal, ny_drumz and jackin’ house I could dig out my library from over the past year, along with some fresh goodies, bookended every hour or so with a progressive breather. I hit them over the head with all kinds of energy and exactly what I’d want to feel if I were dancing in the middle of that sweaty mayhem.

With music from: David Tort; Siwell; Rossweisse; DJ Wady; Chris Child; Johnny Vicious & more.

Pig Dance 2 (Part 2: Furious Jumping)

I usually need to open my all night sets at Ramrod more gradually as the crowd slowly shuffles in. Not so during the monthly Pig Dance, where the club is visually and sonically transformed into a more high profile affair. The place was packed by 10:30 and the opening couple of hours of this set represents my vision of what opening tracks should be on a big night. Certain sounds that hype and beckon the crowd in, setting up what’s to come during peak hours.

“Here They Come!” is a quote from a documentary about Junior Vasquez during the peak of his career in the early 90s when he’d play Sound Factory every Saturday. He was filmed from the booth shouting this to the camera early in the night. There is something special about being the only DJ on the night, and as his crowd filed in early as well, he knew what he was going to deliver to those happy folks some hours later.

With music from: Matteo Dentone; Norty Cotto; Rick Silva; DJ PP; Italobros; Gabriel Rojas & more.

Mayday 2024 (Exclusive)

Here comes episode 002 of The Techno Files, a podcast showcasing the golden era of techno that drove me hard from the late 90s through the mid-2000s. All tracks are remastered hifi encodings from my personal vinyl library.

On this one we go a little deeper and darker to ramp things up because episode three is going to get a little nuts. But these more minimal tracks come through so warm and punchy. I’m very happy with the overall sound of these digital transfers.

This episode features music from: Olga+Jozef; Steve Stoll; Patrik Skoog; Mike Humphries; Raoul Delgardo; Fanon Flowers & more.

The Techno Files | 002

Let the madness begin with episode 003 of The Techno Files, a podcast showcasing the golden era of techno that drove me hard from the late 90s through the mid-2000s. All tracks are remastered hifi encodings from my personal vinyl library.

Now we’re getting into the meat of my collection, and some manic tracks that really defined the sound I was touring with between 2000 and 2004. A few of these also appeared on my 2001 mix “High Heel Techno.” Some pretty beat up vinyl required lots of TLC but they come through sounding as clean as ever. I close it out focusing on the mad genius called Invexis from Germany.

This episode features music from: Gennaro Le Fosse; Gaetano Parisio; The Advent; Andreas Kremer; Paul Damage; Invexis & more.

Not letting up the gas on episode 004 of The Techno Files, a podcast showcasing the golden era of techno that drove me hard from the late 90s through the mid-2000s. All tracks are remastered hifi encodings from my personal vinyl library.

Consider this an extension to the last episode with equal intensity, with more tracks from “High Heel Techno” as well as my 2002 followup “No Carrier” with most tracks falling between 2000 and 2002.

Featuring music from: Deetron; DJ Shufflemaster; Clemens Neufeld; Stigmata; Michael Forshaw; Umek & more.

The Techno Files | 004

Trying something a little different this week, and dipping my toes into some modern waters on episode 005 of The Techno Files.

This time on the dark and atmospheric side, I’ll be giving a modern take every 5th episode for perspective and to keep things interesting. At the halfway mark I share a funny encounter I had while playing this very set at an odd private event in Miami.

Featuring music from: Linear System; S-File; _asstnt & Roll Dann; Justin Schumacher; Inigo Kennedy; Hertz & more.

Digging deep into the 90s crates on episode 006 of The Techno Files, a podcast showcasing the golden era of techno that drove me hard from the late 90s through the mid-2000s. All tracks are remastered hifi encodings from my personal vinyl library.

I wanted to do an episode of some earlier “pre golden era” techno, to give a sense of the experimentation that went on before the scene exploded, sampling sounds that survived the test of time. It’s easy to forget where we came from, but these formative beats were the underpinnings of what would become.

Featuring music from: Petar Dundov; Bandulu; DJ Ze Mig L; Marco Carola; Cari Lekebusch; Dylan Drazen & Tim Xavier; and more.

Kaiser (Vinyl Set) @ Veta Festival 2025

This is Dylan's first attempt at creating a mixtape. He was 19 then, fresh and new full of ideas. Even then you could see he had his tastes set out - comparing the mixes from today to this one shows lots in common. Part one is hard and fast, while part two shows his early influences of the detroit style - the melodic and soulful techno sound from the early '90s.

dd19 - The Matrix (1999)

What was originally created as a promotional requirement for a small gig in Budapest became one of my more talked about mixes during the hard techno years.  I don't play like this anymore, but I can still appreciate the insanity.

In 2002, I wrote:
"this little promotional mini mix CD was given to the first 100 entrants into the coldwar party in budapest, hungary on december 14, 2002. it's unsettlingly hard."

20 Minutes of Hell (2002)

My first live performance in Holland in three years, this set was played on 100% vinyl, comprised of my favorite techno from the last decade. I went through my entire record collection and found the best of the best. Apologies for the crappy sound quality; the turntables used at the event must have been shot, despite having new needles.



Dylan Drazen - Concept - Live at Ahoy, Rotterdam

No discussion of underground techno purism and technical DJ mastery would be complete without the mention of Dylan Drazen’s uniquely remarkable life and career, and the myriad of musical influences it has brought. Conforming to no one person, genre or entity, Dylan has fiercely charted his own path since his sonic journey began over thirty years ago.

With the outset of Drazen’s path arriving in the early 90’s at the age of 18, a crescendo would already manifest by the late 90’s when Spain took note of his visionary methods and pioneering sound during the earliest days of the Internet, and he quickly became an originating stalwart of its nationwide underground techno scene for years, putting in over a million air miles commuting from his New York base, crisscrossing the Iberian peninsula many times over, as fans couldn’t get enough of his relentlessly energetic, organic and authentic rhythms that were so novel to a generation of partygoers.

Yet at the height of all this in the mid 2000s Dylan became swept up in the worldwide poker boom and found himself at a crossroads with dual careers. Maintaining both for nearly a decade, he decided to relocate to South Florida in 2012 to take poker more seriously and music took a back seat. By 2020, Dylan’s poker talent would bring him over $1 million in cash and tournament winnings. Then the pandemic hit, the world ground to a halt and everything was reset as he noticed fans begging for his return, bringing him to yet another crossroads…

So let’s reset.

Dylan’s exposure to multiple forms of music began at the age of 16 getting his first job working at his local record store on Long Island, NY. He quickly gravitated to electronic music, heavily inspired by what New York’s FM airwaves had to offer well before the hiphop era would take over. That summer he would sneak out to NYC and into his first club experience, The Limelight, where he instantly fell in love with its debaucherous environment and DJ booth, which he vowed to get into.

By graduation in 1993 he was beyond hooked. Before heading off to college, he took that summer to intern at a few Manhattan based labels: Todd Terry’s Freeze Records, as well as Astralwerks and Instinct Records. All the while insatiably crate digging through NY’s various vinyl shops, Dylan’s teen self was already swimming in local contacts and influences.

But college awaited, and throughout his time at Boston’s Emerson College (obtaining a degree in audio engineering) he launched a weekly radio mix show called “Underground 88” on WERS 88.9 FM through 1997, working his contacts and continuing to hone his technical skills live on air. During these formative years Dylan maintained working at various vinyl shops in NY and Boston doggedly advancing his exposure to every genre imaginable, thus contributing to his encyclopedic knowledge of electronic dance music and all of the wide-ranging influences it would bring him. As a byproduct, his position enabled him to recommend tracks to and influence the taste of bedroom DJs and a myriad of luminaries alike.

Through these years, he even made good on his promise to play at The Limelight before it shuttered, as well as other infamous New York megaclubs like The Tunnel, Twilo and Save The Robots. And thanks to his stint as assistant engineer at The Looking Glass Studios where David Bowie was recording his latest album in 1997, Dylan was hired to DJ Mr. Bowie’s private 50th birthday party after his sold out birthday performance at Madison Square Garden.

But by the turn of the millennium it was off to the races and Dylan was spending more time on the road than at home, as he found himself in demand not only in Spain, but also in The Netherlands headlining the Awakenings festival three times, as well as other major events and festivals in Germany, Brazil, Japan, and Colombia, spreading his unique form of techno gospel one city at a time. 

Between journeys Dylan made the most of his audio degree by building out his own studio in Brooklyn, releasing a handful of original releases and remixes on some of America’s more influential labels of the era: François K.’s Clicktracks; Ascend; Blueline; Remains; and Ultra Records. Even after moving to South Florida in 2012, Dylan continued to work on remixes for other Spanish and European labels.

Then as Dylan began to go dark quietly diving head first into South Florida’s world of high stakes poker, he made sure to finalize the curation of his life’s work on his website and SoundCloud page, with that nagging feeling he would one day return…

That day arrived in 2021 when Dylan decided to look for work as a local DJ in Fort Lauderdale and its saturation of gay nightlife. His bimonthly residency at the legendary Ramrod helped pave his way back, growing just as comfortable in today’s booths as he did 20 years prior.

After a couple years of this and then launching The Techno Files podcast, he realized it was time for more. So in 2025 Dylan decided to relocate once again, this time to the birthplace of where it all began: Detroit.

Within his first year as Detroit resident, Dylan was already playing events for Detroit Techno Militia & Bang Tech 12, along with multiple appearances at Spot Lite, Spkrbox & TV Lounge.

New York-born, Miami-tested, now Detroit-welcomed: Dylan Drazen is primed and ready to return to the world’s electronic stage showing modern audiences how 30 years of sonic mastery, experience and musical influence can be put on brilliant display in a single set.
