Holy Island, an island off of the coast of North Wales is where Dez Williams begun spinning wax at an early age and now maintains his humble analogue / digital studio. Isolated from the marketing, fashion and pretentious attitudes that plague the music industry, Dez is free to express himself through his machines. 

Safe from this environment he is unconstrained and has no urge to conform with any ideal or aesthetic and thus his electronic music is pure self expression. A window into his soul. His day job at an electronic components factory means that he is no stranger to repetition, rhythm and electronics. 

His sound is perhaps a product of his daily grind with boredom, escapism, events in his life and a long term passion for technology, horror and science fiction. Inspired by many of the classic Chicago / Detroit / Electro / Techno producers, like the finest, his sound is unique, uncompromising and unpredictable. His vision of Techno is deep and futuristic with a heavy dose of Funk. 

Dez's passion for sound and the darker side of the human spirit compels him to create tracks on an almost daily basis and  he sits on an incredibly vast archive of cassettes, mini-discs and CD's of his work. Yet his reclusive nature dictates that his release schedule remains sparse. His tracks can range from driving Techno, to melancholy and dark synthesizer orchestrations, ghostly deep listening, straight up Electro cuts and beyond. Sometimes simple, sometimes complex, within his sounds are vast amounts of detail for the listener to decipher. Emotions transmitted through mathematics and code. 

Williams' tracks have found their way into the sets of DJ's like Dave Clarke, Andrea Parker, Adam X, John Peel, Ellen Allien, Mike Dred, Rob Hall and many more.

He has constantly retained an underground / cult fanbase. His debut LP 'Elektronik Religion' for the SCSI label was hailed as "One of the very few truly great Electro albums of the new century". Dez remains true to the underground and simply creates for the love and need to do so. The mark of a true artist. 

He continues to DJ and play live sets worldwide and has had releases on a variety of record labels including  Bedouin, Earwiggle, Trust, Minimal Soul, Warmdata, Acruacree, Ai, Cheap, SCSI-AV, Blase, Voodoo, and Ben Sims' Native imprint.

SFM007 - Dez Williams

Despite making his debut just a couple of years ago, @lloydstellar is already one of the men of the hour. The Dutch musician Erik Griffioen -the real name under the moniker- has proved to have his very own and authentic approach to electro music with releases on Bella Ursa, @crobotmuzik, or @gatedrecordings among others. His sound, obviously present in this podcast, is led by machine-like beats, melancholic pads, appealing vocoders, and a whole futuristic universe that talks about man’s greed, the conflictive relationship between humans and machines, and dazzling intergalactic battles. Enjoy it!

UNMASKED DISCUSSION 129 | EKATA

El búlgaro MANASyt (dark mastermind Petar Tassev) ha estado rockeando su propia marca de Nurolektro desde 2003. Es responsable de una amplia gama de títulos amenazantes en sellos como Bunker, Touchin' Bass, Kommando 6 y Musar.
Un artista al que no le pueden importar menos las tendencias ni los hypes, y cuyo principal motor es esa auténtica pasión por el género.
Algunas de sus melodías se asemejan a la banda sonora de una futura película de terror, otras a una visita a una clínica mental, pero la mayoría suena exactamente como lo que escucharían los alienígenas hostiles mientras atacan la Tierra.
Actualmente con sede en Amoy, China.

An artist that couldn’t care less about trends nor hypes, and whose main driving force is that authentic passion for the genre.
Some of his tunes resemble a future horror movie soundtrack, others a visit to a mental clinic but most sound like what exactly hostile aliens would listen to while attacking Earth.

Zyrcadian Editions Mix #023 - DVS NME

Croatian dj and producer with releases on reputable labels such as Brokntoys and 20/20 Vision.

Sporting a growing catalogue of the finest electro she's one of the rare women in the region with accomplished experience in both production and DJ'ing. Her musical DNA these days is leaning towards experimental but she kept that spacey and melodic vibe heard on first releases like ’The Glowing' (via Brokntoys), and Laax (via Noise 2 Meet U).
Her tracks also found their place on fresh Belgian label ZwaarteKracht, Mexican Aztlan Records and Baox and she has recorded a track ‘Alpha Dial’ and designed a vinyl label for Russian Analog Concept (just to name a few).
From newer releases we would like to point out release for 20/20 Vision where her tune Rescape found it’s place between some of the strongest names in industry like Extrawelt and Djedjotronic.

When not in the studio you can find her playing with a band Aklea Neon and Sound Doulas or recording audio on a film set.

In the summer of 2019 Ivna set the scene on main stage of Love International festival warming up for the likes of London Paranoid, Derek Carr & DMX Krew. In true Ivna style she has delivered a fantastic selection of all things electro. Weaving through the full spectrum of this wonderful genre, from deep Drexciya sounding records to the acid line driven sounds of Berlin. She is also a frequent guest on Croatian underground summer festivals such as Blast, Skrivena Uvala (Hidden Beach) and many more.

As a part of Natural Selection family she was a recent guest on Berlin streaming platform Hor.
You can also check out her live performance on Electronic Beats.

Tracklist:

Elvira Campos - Enter the bow
Yuki Matsumura - Illminate
Ex.hale - Realism
Pontiac Streator - Particle Flavor
Søulless - I Cut Myself To Sleep
Curved Needle - Rain Of Molten Iron
The Spy - Top Op Het Bot
Boris Barksdale - Slip the pick
Efe Ce Ele - Enough
Prophan - We will drag you down

Dark Science Electro presents: The Women of Electro

London based Dj/Producer EKATA is self-described as genre and sound obsessive. She has built a reputation as a huge advocate for purist Electro and a creator of a dark and warped experience. Her sound best personifies ominous grooves and obvious sci-fi fixations which embody her carefully picked selections and the journey she takes you on.

EKATA's debut release was on 'planet destroyed' - a VA by AVOIDANT, the Electro sub label of Soma Records.
Others featured on the same VA are long standing top tier artists such as Marcel dettman, Slam, terrestrial Access Network + many more. 

Aswell as this, she was also selected as one of the new faces of the biggest music institution in the world - TRESOR in Berlin, which saw her play her signature Electro sound in the prestigious cage in September 2022. 

She's also a resident for Natural Selection, a London based label and events collective that consistently pushes the boundaries with its forward thinking lineups and releases featuring artists in the Techno, Electro and Experimental world.
