Author of three massive iterations on SK_eleven since the drop of his debut instalment on the label in 2021, New York DJ and producer Holden Federico aka 90s Techno Redux undoubtedly counts as one of the North-American scene's most exciting talents. Herald of a style both elegantly timeless and straight out propulsive, Holden turns in a textbook example of his adroitly combined sense of selection and mixing. Prepare for two hours of frantic uptempo assault and minutely designed tech-scapes, where no-nonsense big room firepower collides with stripped-down brutalism and an elevated touch of post-industrial sophistication. Going hard.

Reclaim Your City 594 | Holden Federico

CLOSERcast proudly presents Temudo, a standout figure in contemporary Techno, premiering his brand new live set, recorded at Disorder @ Liquid Club (October 2024), exclusively on our platform!

Known for blending the soul of Techno with a modern, unorthodox approach, Temudo's music is characterised by gritty, futuristic sounds, with a signature motif resembling a rusty crank pounding into a brick wall. In 2023, Temudo embarked on a new journey into live performance, delivering spontaneous sets that challenge traditional expectations. Each live set is a unique, improvised act where he pushes the boundaries of Ableton to its sonic limits. 

"The main idea is that the music of that recording didn’t exist before the performance itself. It was all created on the flow, one idea after the other, through the control of sequencers, Lfos, arpeggiators and other complex midi processing, as well as virtual synthesizers and sound processors. I would have an idea playing for the audience, and would prepare the next one (by pre listening on the headphones) and would eventually blend both."

@tokenrecords 
Kr!z has been at the forefront of techno for more than a decade. Influenced by the hypnotic and energetic sound helmed by veterans such as Jeff Mills, Steve Rachmad and James Ruskin, he gradually but steadily developed his own identity in the international techno scene. 

After making a name for himself as a skilled DJ with sharp focus and a quick mixing style in home country Belgium and the Netherlands, Kr!z launched Token Records in 2007. It has since been a leading outlet for heady, purist sounds. 

As a DJ, Kr!z takes listeners on journey’s surpassing space and time. Led by deeply hypnotic grooves, syncopated rhythms and widely reverberating atmospheres, his desire to guide the dancefloor into unknown depths can be felt with every note. Intensities build up and collapse under his skillful hands, knowing what each knob twist will result in. Each set feels almost like a mathematical calculation, deciphering the code of collective ecstasy.

This month’s contribution to our DETECT mix series comes courtesy of @INLIMEN. 

Blending raw, hypnotic techno with harder focused grooves, the Ukrainian born, Portuguese-raised artist channels her diverse upbringing into an entirely new sound entirely.

The name “INLIMEN” takes its origins from Latin, signifying being in a state of liminality, where transformation occurs into a new beginning and INLIMEN take this one step further to achieve a state of trance and offer a passage into the unknown.

INLIMEN’s DETECT is now available to listen to on our FOLD SoundCloud.
