Duplicity 069 | @bw000000

We are super hyped to present the 69th edition featuring a super special mix featuring 100% self-produced tunes with a ton of unreleased goodies in bw’s usual unrelenting & captivating groovy style! 

As a producer, bw’s zestful tracks are cooked with the minimum elements, being sure each one brings the maximum to the result: driving grooves, swinging vocals and haunting melodies, all melted with a unique and sexy captivating touch, already enjoyed by artists such as MARRØN, Kr!z, Dustin Zahn, Volster, Norman Nodge, Matrixxman or Arnaud Le Texier, to name a few. His way of understanding techno is colourful, varied and, thanks to that, much more expressive.
bw has been into techno as a clubber and DJ even before he moved from Argentina to Europe many years ago. In the last years he found his way into production without a rush and took the time to properly learn how he wanted his music to sound, even though it is a never ending improvement path.

In the last two years, counting from 2020, his self-released EPs quickly led to Gazes EP on Secession Records. Also, many bw’s tracks have recently appeared in several VAs from labels around the globe: Malör (Berlin), Different Sound (Tbilisi), B55 (Mexico) and E-HZRN (Miami). You can also expect a single coming soon in Dust Trax (Barcelona), a city where bw has also lived, even though he's now based in Munich (of course, he has also spent quite a long time in Berlin).

bw is currently active in the local queer and techno community in Munich, and BALLS is his most recently created project: a sound plataform to share like-minded artists’ work, a future record label and an event concept that will sooner or later make a noisy and sweaty debut.

As usual, turn up the volume and enjoy the mix!

Joining us this episode is the Canticle Records label boss and groove machine Assumption. Hailing from the french capital, this young DJ and producer has been consistently pushing his own minimalistic and puristic vision of techno through well-crafted sets and equally impressive releases. His sound is tight, polished and yet at the same time spacey and imaginitive, allowing the listener to drift off into the depths of his own mind. This set is a mental journey par excellence, through rhythmic excursions and dotted with sounds that defy explanation.

Chaz creates evocative techno sounds thumbing with a rebellious drive. Hypnotic
repetitions are essential substances for his production as well as performance. He
combines the spirit of the genre with enigmatic production techniques.
His music sits comfortably at the crossroads where galvanised textures collide with
undulating rhythms, as a tribute to his strongest inspiration coming from techno artists
and labels of the nordic world. Chaz is defying convention and forging his own path
through the revered underground current. Approaching his soundscapes with the care
of a scrupulous artisan, adding pensive electricity through interesting details — a
methodology that has accrued him constant praise from distinguished artistic figures.
The man behind the project, Akshay shares his time between being a music
programmer, booker, and an artist. He represents a new generation of artists who not
only avoid over-elaboration and unnecessary attachments, but also live on an energetic
aura that knows about the past while spreading its tentacles in the present.

Hemka joins for DifferentSound Podcast #167.

Marseille-born DJ and producer, Hemka. Hemka’s life has been influenced with music since a young age, growing up in a musical family and playing bass guitar as a teenager. However, her musical career lifted off since 2017 with “The mystery of the Black Flamingo”, which was released on Float Records. Since then, the French artist released on many renowned labels such as Rekids, Bpitch, Symbolism, Noise Manifesto, among others. Her productions are full of shrewd, minimalistic sounds – paradoxically enough making up her very maxed-out production style. Ambitious and goal driven, she has just launched her own label called ‘Nerudo’, on which she has released her first 4tracks EP called « Divine Beast ».

Polish Techno.logy | Podcast #212 | Aetha b2b Hellix
19.12.2022

Lady and Gentleman. 211th episode belongs to Cracow duo.
Live recording from Sekta Selekta in Cracow

[BIO]
Aetha - Polish artist born and raised in Lublin (Eastern Poland), lives in Krakow now. She performs with enormous confidence and she is not afraid to hit the audience with a juicy, groovy beat. Quickly became one of the faces of the movement of techno on the polish rave scene. Nowadays she is one of the most recognizable artists in her homeland. In 2019 she was invited to Tresor (Berlin) for the New Faces series. 
When she’s not behind the decks, she spreads her passion for music by organizing various events in local communities – showcases, workshops and music lectures. Kraków's music scene’s rapid growth is partially dedicated to her original ideas, like organizing open decks at Szpitalna 1 club. She is a close friend of the Instytut Festival's crew - she is one of the teachers in their Instytut Dźwięku - a modern music production and DJ school. She used to be a booker at a few clubs, also co-creates Vultur project with Rraph and Diabot. You can see her performances on techno parties as well as psytrance, where she performs under the other alias.

Hellix comes from eastern Poland. Currently, he lives in Krakow and is a regular club-goer. He loves vinyl records, so his dj sets almost always involve music played from them. Hard work and consistency allow him to deliver the best technical quality in his sets. Since the beginning of his journey he's shared the scene with artists such as Benales, Madalba, Mario Berger, Mary Yuzovskaya, Stranger, Viels.

BASEMENT 003 - Beatrice

Born and raised in southern Italy, Jacom is an emerging techno DJ and producer based in
Zurich. In 2006, he fully dedicated himself to electronic music, which quickly brought him
behind the decks. When he moved to Zurich in 2012, his career took an exponential
upswing. 2016 the talented Italian became a member of the renowned label Adroit and has
been an integral part of the collective ever since. In addition to numerous performances in
Italy (e.g. Amnesia Milano, Cosmic Festival) and throughout Switzerland, Jacom has also
demonstrated his skills in other European countries. Thus, Berlin is also one of his
achievements, where he played in well-known venues such as Anomalie, Aeden or About
Blank.
Jacom is characterized by his groovy and hypnotic sets, which is reflected in his productions. The latest EP "Mind" (with remixes by Kaiser and Vsk) hit immediately and received support
from notable artists like Richie Hawtin, Joseph Capriati or Perc. Jacom still has a lot of big things in his pipeline, so be sure to keep an eye on him!

RED WAVES I DECKA I 067

We are happy to present you the first podcast of the year with @decka-music.

Constructing complex sonic cathedrals from a mind- and toolset born of both the UK as the EU, the artist going by the name of Decka, presents quite a unique panoply of sounds to his willing listeners. His music reflects a fascinating blend of bone-stripping Techno and blissfully blinding Bass, forging a musical mélange looking both to the big room Industrial sound of the German capital, where he nowadays resides as well as the sub-low pressure rooted in his hometown of Bristol.

Rorschack - Tech Clubbers Podcast #283

A hyperactive merchant of heavyweight floor weaponry that for all that doesn’t lack complexity, Berlin-based Italian producer Gianluca Caiati alias Kaiser has established his name as one of the today's techno scene’s most potent assets through a relentless flow of grade-A releases for the likes of K S R, Planet Rhythm, MORD and more. Clocking in as the master of ceremony for our next round of 909-fuelled audio assault, Caiati gives us a much satisfying glimpse into his fine engineering of industrial-leaning rhythms and hypnotic whorls of dubbed-out machine bombast. Swarms of emphatic churners bumping into droney hardware computations, it’s a feast of tough-leathered 4x4 explosiveness that’s about to come pelting down on your system. Immune system-boosting rave material all the way, treat yourself.
