As one of the new generation DJs in Taipei, Andy Chiu was inspired by the electronic music scene and the record stores he visited in Berlin - which has eventually led him to open a brand new chapter for the local electronic scene in Taipei since 2015.

He first became the resident DJ at the legendary club Korner and infused Trippy Techno, Melancholic Techno, Raw Energetic Acid and Dark Ambient into his layering, sophisticated sets. Soon he got the attention amongst those club nights for his uniquely atmospheric, mechanically danceable sound. He later joined the iconic label Smoke Machine and stepped into the family of Organik Festival, and then started to leave traces all around the globe, including Boiler Room for Spectrum Festival in Taipei, OHM and Arena Club in Berlin, Rural Festival in Tokyo, Vurt in Seoul, Tag in Chengdu, Oil Club in Shenzhen, 宀 in Hong Kong and Savage in Hanoi.

As pandemic silenced the world and made everyone lost in time, Andy found his inner peace by diving into the 90’s to look for more inspirations, digging in genres such as Trance newage and Progressive, shaping his new sound by engaging with these genres and merging them in his own way. He is now the resident DJ at Pawnshop, the fresh voice of the Taipei underground nightlife. As the original member of the Techno-oriented Smoke Machine along with Diskonnected, he is also in charge of “Hylo Series by Smoke Machine”, a new series that brings forward a brighter sound mixing with House and Trance - to correspond with the post-pandemic era with hopes and lights.

Another round of electro with Plant 43.

"Playing at The Crave last year was an extremely happy moment for me. The sun was out and it was really exciting to share my live electro on the Intergalactic FM stage, a radio station that’s played a huge part keeping electro alive over the decades. Big thanks to The Crave for the opportunity to play on that day and for sharing this DJ set - a great chance to play some music by some of my favorite producers." - @plant43

Equally comfortable playing peak time club sets or deeper introspective selections, Emily Jeanne has found her own niche sitting at the borders of many sounds and never steering too far in any one direction. Expect cutting edge sounds ranging from more floor focussed techno music to the outer limits of experimental drone/ambient and everything in between.

@garcon rightly considers himself an "expert in mood modulation." He is someone who carefully builds a groove, teasing with snippets, dropping in and out of tunes and drawing out the process of gratification and please. The Swiss man does it as resident at Elysia in Basel, often with a techno foundation but drawing on niches from all over the electronic spectrum. He co-runs the Amenthia Recordings label with Agonis and has said it takes its musical identity from the utilitarian space of his home club.  

This mix was recorded there last Friday, with CDJs and 1210s, but also a Space Echo that adds extra depth throughout. Starting in a cavernous industrial space from the off, the sound of sonic decay, eerie reverb and slow motion rhythmic automation all provide details that draw you ever deep into this industrial scene. As the drums become more prominent and the tempo hurries, the mood is no less unsettling and deserted. Broken techno, lurching bass and dark dub all feature in this most skilfully restrained yet highly impactful selection.
