For the next episode of our series we’ve invited the Russian artist Mary Yuzovskaya who is currently residing in Berlin. Mary has been cultivating her approach to electronic music for over 13 years already, and in that time she has proven herself to be a worthy vinyl-only DJ and producer. Since the year 2017 she is also running her own label Monday Off where she curates and presses work from artists that explore the trippier, more hypnotic side of Techno. 

For her contribution to SALON she recorded a vinyl-only mix and shared with us what drives her as an artist:

‘The most exciting thing about DJing, producing and running a label is a unique opportunity to create and shape your own world and let others experience it. In my sets I share some of the records that bring me joy and make me feel things in this particular time frame. If these tracks resonate with the listener I find my mission accomplished.'

Embodiment 033 - Mary Yuzovskaya

unnatural versions episode 1, Curated by @Darkduction

Unnatural Versions 001 | Darkduction

"Besides being a very special event, Mostra is also a small community where respect and admiration between audiences and artists is essential. Taking place in the outstanding Montjuic Castle, Mostra had an exciting programme where dance and experimentation were at the same level.

For my live set I used some classic analog instruments, playing realtime rhythms and improvising harmonies over some preprogrammed sequences and creating deep grooves and atmospheres with the support of intense profound sub-basses.

Thanks Inveins for releasing this beautiful recollection."

@fleika

Each of fleika’s sets is a humble lecture in subtle mind control. Characterised by a pristine atmosphere, trance-inducing percussion work and a controlled perplexity of unidentified synth sounds, his sets are always a pleasure to get lost in. The persistence in digging through vast worlds of techno he has retained since his beginnings as a member of the Polygon crew have made him one of the most respected selectors in the area. The precision of his fingers when leaning over the mixer indicate a high complexity of thought behind his performance.

unnatural versions 002 | @Darkduction

Darkduction begins with a captivating introduction that immerses the audience in a world of ethereal ambient textures. Soft and ethereal sounds float in the air, creating an introspective and mysterious atmosphere. The choice of minimalist sounds and electronic whispers sets an intriguing tone right from the start.

As the mix progresses, Darkduction slowly introduces subtle percussive elements that begin to pulse in the background. Abstract rhythms and layers of atmospheric sounds intertwine, gradually building energy and setting the stage for the transition into more experimental terrain.

Masterfully, he fuses ambient textures with elements of experimental techno. Beats become more pronounced, while frequencies intensify, creating a sense of anticipation on the dancefloor. Deep, pulsating basslines begin to resonate, adding a dose of tension to the mix.

As it progresses, it dives deeper into experimental techno, taking the audience on a hypnotic sonic journey. Rhythmic patterns become more complex, incorporating industrial elements and discordant percussion. Distorted synthesizers and layers of sound effects create an immersive and edgy listening experience.

The intensity continues to build, unleashing a series of peak moments where techno reaches its peak. Relentless rhythms and unusual sound textures merge into a sonic storm that envelops the audience.

Hogeko started her career in 2017 as a DJ in Osaka, Japan. She brings a fresh, new way of delivering techno music that is innovative and mesmerizing, that will surely give any techno enthusiast an experience they will never forget. Three years ago was her first experience visiting a club in Osaka. It was here that her passion for techno music began. At first it was only pure curiosity about the DJing world; she never imagined that looking at the DJ equipment would leave such a mark and amazing impression. That passion continued as she researched more about techno music and continued to be inspired. She may be young and inexperienced in this industry, but her natural talent in the techno world is undeniably remarkable and hard to ignore. The charisma of her tracks can take anyone to a different dimension, and bring a variety of experience to the avid listener. As expected for any artist, she got her inspiration from the world class DJs Cio DʼOr and Nina Kraviz, combining each of their styles. But she also wanted to showcase her own unique style and elements which are very vivid in her tracks. According to her, her personality is very bubbly but she can also be very deep at times. Her versatile sound, or what she calls her chameleon-like music, expresses all her moods that various people can relate to. Her tracks switch from gothic themes to more vibrant sound displays, plus melancholic and galactic sounds with a touch of some traditional Japanese elements to give an element of surprise in the techno world. She wants to stay true to her culture but with a mysterious and adventurous twist. She started producing in 2018 and published her own ʼʼKAKUSE EPʼʼ at Betrieb Records. In the next breath, she published ʻʼKAMIHITOE EPʼʼ at DREIZEHIN SCHALLPLATTEN. She was one of the DJs playing in ALZAR, JOULEA and is still very active in the techno arena. You can find Hogeko in the underground scene of techno music.
