FLOAT RECORDS PODCAST 038 | https://soundcloud.com/thomstraxx

"After quite some time without recording podcasts, I wanted to channel all my energy from previous gigs into this 2h recording. In this mix I brought some more of my closing / high energy rhythms, with still my hypnotic footprint present." - Thoms Traxx

Lenz’s productive pursuit of music began when he discovered the unique lure of the underground. Illegal raves birthed his passion for techno, which eventually led to the Dutchman swapping the dancefloor for the booth as a DJ.

Stylistically, Lenz stands at odds with the current techno trends, opting to emphasise more nuanced sounds such as hypnotic patterns and dark atmospheres, whilst maintaining an energetic, high impact sound. His brand of driving, hard hitting techno has seen him become a regular throughout the entirety of the Netherlands, carving his teeth at clubs such as Paradiso, Club Atelier & Club Basis.

His track selection maintains a strong allegiance to the classic years of techno, often delving deep into the heavier releases of the 2000s era of techno. Layering multiple layers of driving, pounding grooves is his signature, presenting a percussive overload which sucks the dancer into another dimension.

Beyond DJing, Lenz is also a co-founder of the event collective De After, which has allowed him to further present his vision of the underground, starting with a sold out affair at Club Atelier, followed up with multiple editions at Club de With & Noordwaards.
