„Mehr FLINTA*s an die Decks!" - Kycyc's Motto seit über 4 Jahren. Um mehr Diversität hinterm Mixer zu schaffen, hat Sie angefangen aufzulegen, mittlerweile auch Vinyl. Vielleicht schwappt Ihre Motivation auf euch über und ihr startet etwas, was ihr schon immer mal machen wolltet!
Schon bevor Marie selbst aufgelegt habe, wurde Sie mit Minimal und Deep House infiziert. Ihr Sound ist spritzig und schmatzig, Sie liebe fetzige Claps und bouncy Bässe. Hoffentlich regt euch ihr Set zum Popowackeln an!

I had an incredible time playing my first set at LOONE Berlin. The energy was exactly what I'd hoped for. This mix features a blend of unreleased material, remixes, and some of my favorite tracks from other producers.

Gannein - Loone Berlin - 29/07/2025 (livestream)

Release date (vinyl & digital): 12th of September 2025

TRACKLIST:
A1: Flashback
A2: W9Y
B1: Ascender
B2: Break Nation

INFO:

Unmistakable are the sonic experiments of Spanish alchemist ORBE; with this fresh release on Token. ORBE’s iconically viscous textures and impactful percussion weasel their way into ‘Ascender’ for a deeper release on Kr!z’s label. Thick, brooding atmospheres drive these tracks into stories of pursuit and escape throughout its four tracks.  

A slick, pulsating low end in ‘Flashback’ stands out as a first impression for an imposing EP. Electric leads zip by for maximum psychosis; he’s known for his uncompromising dissonance and drive. A staple of the Spanish scene, ORBE bites down hard on deep and hypnotic techno to resonate through concrete warehouses. This jagged edge to club music continues through ‘W9Y’ - a more drum-forward cut with noisy transitions and breathable synthwork. Sharper stabs occupy this space as opposed to the track’s predecessor and tension is maintained with a lingering pad in the background. A meditative conclusion for the A side, ORBE quickly shifts his attention in the titletrack ‘Ascender’. Emphasizing tone and tune on the kick, the lead comes with confrontation. Rolling through shifting hats, the producer brings boiling tension through minimal arrangement and the weight of his sound design - a skillset only the most seasoned artists can claim. To close things out, ‘Break Nation’ does just that - cutting off the traditional four/four rhythm and instead presenting itself as a bass stepper. With ORBE’s classic unison packed synths, this dweller presents a whole other perspective on ‘Ascender’. A hybrid of influences and yet still destined for the techno dancefloor, this breath of fresh air serves as deep dive into the subconscious for an eyes-closed experience.

Ronja is a Finnish, Helsinki-based DJ who was introduced to the techno scene in 2021. She fell in love with the genre a year later after discovering artists in the hypnotic and mental scene, some of whom remain her favourites today. While she has no formal musical background, discovering and sharing music has always been her passion. This made DJing feel like a natural step, and she finally began her journey behind the decks in the second half of 2024. 

This set marks Ronja’s second podcast and showcases her signature sound. The tracks are characterised by simple yet hypnotic and captivating loops, creating an immersive atmosphere.

“Oncidium” is Elata new side podcast series curated by Elata Community and highlighting talents within our scene.
Also known as the "dancing-lady orchid," Oncidium is a flower similar to the Elata one. For us, it will represent the first dance, the first steps, the beginning of a longer dance.

This series will consist of podcasts made by London (and its area) based talents, with a special focus on Elata Community artists. We want to give our beloved community the opportunity to share their music and use Elata as a platform to promote themselves.

For this sixth episode, we are excited to feature SOTO! Thanks a lot for your music !

MAUER (@mauerdj) – DJ, music producer, and the creative force behind SENSOR Records (@sensorrecords). He began his musical journey as a music producer, composer, and songwriter. From an early age, he explored a wide range of musical styles, but it was the pulsating allure of techno that ultimately captured his heart.
MAUER’s passion for techno was born during his first pilgrimage to the legendary Berghain many years ago. In each of his sets, one can hear echoes of Berlin’s electrifying club culture.
MAUER’s selection is defined by atmospheric, hypnotic melodies that draw the listener into a deep musical trance. This is complemented by a distinct, pulsating bassline that gives his sets energy and a solid rhythmic foundation.


Thank Your Mom #11 - MAUER

To be a small horse in the sun

Recorded live at Demolition Berlin on July 19, 2025, this set by Feinherb captures a night marked by tension, flow, and intensity. Now released as part of the Syncast series, it offers a glimpse into the duo’s evolving sound.

Feinherb emerged from a close musical connection between Max (Maximus) and Leon (K49). What began as shared studio sessions quickly turned into a natural collaboration shaped by trust, structure, and creative freedom.

Both Artists bring years of experience as DJs, producers, and heads of their own labels and event series. Max runs Voyeuristic Disorder and is part of Demolition Berlin, while Leon curates Legion Berlin. 
Their solo styles differ – Max tends toward raw, driving energy, Leon toward big room and wide textures. As Feinherb, they find a new balance: structured yet free, groovy, gritty, and full of playful tension.

Elata stands for a flower which offers you the impression to kiss your deepest mind beyond your profound conscious and gives you a loud and extensive dump through your body.That is the quintessence of what we want to create, from the cavernous infancy of organic sounds to the purity of heavy drums, we aim to drive you into an hypnotic and shamanic bubble of sounds where your mind will be trapped following fast rhythms, as captured by the chemical kiss of Elata.

Genocide, June 2025:
Israel is only the executioner, every nation which has armed that country in the past year is an accessory to that genocide, an accomplice, a facilitator.  We cannot talk about war crimes because when you target unarmed civilians, mostly women and children, we are talking about a massacre, like terrorists do, not a war. The people who orchestrated that massacre, in the US, the most duplicitous, followed by those of the UK, Germany, France, and probably a few lesser ones should be tried for crimes against humanity just as well as Netanyahu and his cabinet, because it has been going on for two years, generously reported by media of all kinds, so the enablers knew exactly how the arms were to be used, as a tool for revenge, domination, and humiliation of the Palestinian people.  The conflict has ceased to be about the defense of anything for months.

The parties responsible have made a mockery of decency, morals, fairness, proportion, or justice, not to mention empathy.  Of what little there was, these concepts will be a lot longer to come back than they were to be struck down.  

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

...

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(
...

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
