Another live recording from the Reclaim Your City X Token night in early November and this one‘s a banger. Marcal is the budding Brazilian star act you may have heard of, commanding recognition post pandemic with his highly addictive loops. That’s certainly true in the case of Radio Slave, who played one of the former’s tracks on his show for Rinse FM and sought out the talent responsible. A serendipitous (online) meeting that blossomed into a deeper connection and had Marcal signed to Rekids, Enemy Records and Token. And here they are a little down the line and all the luckier for it. Marcal’s focus is on intelligent and minimal builds, those that work by way of rhythmic complexity and highly developed textures, brainy techno with a pinch of mischief. Bassiani Podcast 192 is a prime example of that formula in action, a two hour dose of the finest cuts and hardest basslines recorded live on the Bassiani floor.

123rd guest of KHIDI’s podcast series is one of the most important Portuguese techno artists of the new generation - Temudo

As a music producer and DJ, Temudo is part of a new generation of artists whose work relies on the contemporary approach to Techno. His music allies the soul of the genre with a modern methodology, and has the seal of genre defining labels like: Klockworks, Soma, Modularz, MORD, or Warm Up.

KHIDI Podcast 123: Temudo

Some will be familiar and some won’t be just yet, but one thing is certain, Chami should be on your radar. A spectacularly dextrous groove manipulator in his own right, the Berlin-based jockey has been harnessing some fierce dance floor moments over at the world’s most well-known club (guess which, it starts with a B) and a dozen more. Running the gamut from archetypal uptempo drives to aqueous beds of acidic textures and highly volatile 909 outbursts, Chami treats us to a mind-bending two-hour assault in sound, which will drain up to the last drop of sweat in your (soon dog-tired) carcass of a body. Absolute masterclass from a DJ in full possession of his art. Don’t miss.

Reclaim Your City 580 | Chami

This next one’s a very special B2B set from two of techno’s freshest talents. German/Dutch pairing Phil Berg and Lobster have emerged from their respective habitats masters of their art. From raves in both their homelands to releases on SK-eleven, HAYES, Room Trax and positivesource, as well as a shared residency for Vault Sessions that’s brought them here for Bassiani Podcast 210, the duo posit a deep and driving compound of high-voltage rhythms in their day-to-day praxis. Slamming techno that has claimed a rightful space among the greatest names of their generation. Layer by layer, an instinctive formulation of heaving basslines and delicate hi-hats balanced with utmost precision. It’s a seamless communion of complementary worldviews in respect to sound, a rich tapestry of ever morphing loops. It’s focus on gradual build, a slowly evolving chimera in lieu of schmaltzy instant gratification. This latest edition clocks in at three hours, a redacted version of their 12 hour set for the Vault Sessions night at Bassiani back in early February. Immersive and rolling, monolith techno that’s sure to set a higher bar for those who follow.

FLOAT RECORDS PODCAST 031 | Windfuhr

Guided by the rhythm of drums, his musical journey is defined by hypnotic introspections and consistent energy flow. 

It is precisely the union of these elements which allows the mind to wander and the body to keep moving. A strictly warm and organic sound, dominated by low frequencies and percussive elements is Windfuhr’s signature touch.
