Happy new year everyone! We're back in action and kicking off 2022 with none other than Roman Sputnik. The Lithuanian DJ is a key figure in his country's scene and is the technical head and co-founder of the mighty Digital Tsunami, which is an homage to the classic Drexciya track of the same name. What started as a party and podcast series is now grown into the DT Camp festival in Lithuania and a platform that helps to promote both established and up-and-coming artists. As a DJ, he combines his deep experience and killer instincts to bring together dark downtempo chuggers, acid-infused techno and gritty breaks into a killer dancefloor storyline. Lock in!

We're incredibly pleased to welcome Robert Heise, best known for his iconic electro project The Exaltics. For over 20 years by now Robert Heise is a part of the electronic music scene. He started his career as resident DJ at the Club Kassablanca in Jena, where he performed with big players such as Robert Hood, Jeff Mills or Claude Young. While organizing several Electronica parties with Dj Mikk in and around Jena, he was able to show his talents and give the parties/ music his own drive. Robert founded the project The Exaltics in 2006 as well as the electro/ techno label SolarOneMusic with his long term friend Nico Jagiella. Since then he published countless 12"s and several LP's with labels like Clone, Crème Organization, Bunker or his own label SolarOneMusic and worked during that time with outstanding artists like Drexciya´s Gerald Donald, Helena Hauff, Egyptian Lover or Depeche Mode´s Martin Gore for example. He turned his deep cinematic and most of all charismatic electro into his own trademark. Lock yourself in for electro from the top shelf including tracks by Dez Williams, Chupacabras, Serge Geyzel, Volruptus, Marcos Cabral, and many others.

It's finally sunny Amsterdam and we're extra happy to welcome LVRIN to the GF series. The DJ and hardware focussed producer has been impressing with his work for some time with deadly releases on labels like Electric Shapes, Sign Bit Zero, numerous on Pinkman Broken Dreams, on towLie's kaften label, on Arma Records as his alias Golden Axe and others. With the recent Ukraine war, he has made it a point as a Russian artist to take a stance against violence and speak out. He has contributed in many ways including all sales from his EP on Pinkman this year as well as being part of the fundraiser compilation by Global Warming Records which was curated by Yssue and featured 22 Russian artists. Lock in for a synth-heavy hour of chugging electro, EBM, and more.

Having re-emerged to great acclaim on Delsin in 2012 with an excellent album and EP offering, Manchester's Claro Intelecto is back once again. This time out, following the label re-releasing his debut EP Peace Of Mind, Claro is serving up four brand new tracks that fuse his usual deep, dubby house and techno stylings to swathes of lush ambiance and delicate sound design. 

First up is 'Remember', a mid-tempo track with thundering kicks and little malfunctioning machine noises floating in swathes of cavernous dub. Subtle rhythms emerge from the murk and tortured, ghoulish sounds imbue them with a real sense of paranoia. 'White Sun' is full of Claro Intelecto's usual smeared synth and weirdly atmospheric ambient sounds and only after two minutes does a slow, purposeful kick drum arrive, but even then you are rather left swirling and floating in his textural chambers than marching to a beat.

'A Nightmare Before Bedtime' is a melange of clipped and scary voices, grainy white noise gusts and heavy, lazy kick drums. Super slow and seriously moody, it's a perfectly unsettling track that is wholly befitting of its name. Finally, 'Blank CC' is the most direct thing here, where frazzled and serrated lines rip about above stormy synth seas. Prickly, ever more intense and full on non standard electronic sounds it's another of Claro Intelecto's abstract offerings that really arrests your attention.

We're incredibly pleased to welcome Dissemblance to the GF series. She is a very talented and poetic artist that the entire GF team have been following for a while and had the pleasure of meeting in person at Intergalactic FM fest this year. You can check her lauded album “Centauresse” on the mighty L.I.E.S. records, following up her 2019 debut album "Over The Sand" for Mannequin Records. Her productions bring a variety of sounds and invite us to explore the full range of her musical dynamics, leading the listener into her universe where the border between dreams and reality blurs into one, with no tangible beginning or end. If you happen to be in Paris on Friday, December 8th, do not miss her Dissemblance Live at Petit Bain to enjoy the full experience. For the series, she has crafted a special session where she gives us a unique and magical mix out of her studio in Paris, incorporating exclusive vocals and Rhodes improvisations over 80 beautiful minutes of thoughtful and sensory music. She plays tracks from the 80s: Schleimer K, DZ Lectric & Anthon Shield, taking a funky turn with Girl Unit, to arrive to some dirty acid music by Beverly Hills 808303, ending with a solo rough Rhodes impro through the Moog Cluster Flux pedal. This mix is literally a special journey through a solid selection, poetic vocals and inventive jams. Don't take our word for it: Lock in!

The series rages on this week with none other than Randstad! He is a producer and DJ alias of multidisciplinary artist Thomas van Linge. Aside from his many killer releases on the likes of Veyl, Pinkman Body Musick and many others, he is also the co-founder of well known labels such as BAKK, RUBBER, and the PLAFOND series.

He's assembled a weaponry of tehcno bangers for the GF series with tracks by Stranger, Fresko, Lenson, Anetha, Peder Mannerfelt, Oscar Mulero, Schwefelgelb, Manny Dee, and many other. Lock - IN!

We have Mowgli on the series this sunny autumn day. A true digger completely surrounded by vinyl during his Pinkman record store days, the Rotterdam-based selector is known for packing a crate with minimal wave, proto-EBM, unknown boogie and the noisier edges of Chicago house and early techno. Powered by Pontoon Bookings, he makes up regular appearances across the country including PIP, Blijdorp Festival, Poing, BIT, RadioRadio, Skatecafe & Weelde, and many others. With upcoming shows in Utrecht, Amsterdam and more, it's a perfect time to hear what to expect. Lock in for an hour plus of solid grooves expertly selected by Mowgli.

We continue the GF series this week with one of the pillars of the Dutch electro scene, none other than DJ Overdose. Hailing from The Hague and based in Rotterdam, his story starts in the eighties. His vision was to create a vibe “where the subs are devastating and the beats are raw". He underpins his work with booming Miami bass and draws on his love for 80s hip-hop to conjure up his signature style. He's etched his mark on deeply loved and respected labels such as L.I.E.S., Creme Organization, Bordello A Parigi, Pinkman, Viewlexx, Murder Capital, his own RotterHague, and many others. Famously dexterous in the booth, DJ Overdose has well-honed skills that make him able to tear up a larger stage or connect with a more intimate crowd. He graces this series with a two-and-a-half-hour live recording at the Down The Rabbit Hole festival. Lock in!'

The GF series is back this week with Ayshel. The young, Athens-based DJ is part of the Stegi Radio team and hosts her show CALL NOW for over four years. Her show features artists such as Pi Electronics resident Zorz, LVRIN, and others. When she's not playing Athens staples like Astron Bar, which sadly closed, she has been making the rounds at festivals like Healthy Summer Fest and others. Her selections are located somewhere between tribal beats, hypnotic melodies and industrial sounds. Her mix is no exception. Lock in for an hour from one of Athens' hottest up-and-coming DJs.
