Hailing from Potsdam, Germany, we welcome Rill for Podcast #247. The DJ/producer is co-head of the Berlin-based techno label MITSU2000 and @syntop_kollektiv .

With a sound deeply rooted in early 2010s techno, Rill has quickly become a standout figure thanks to his sharp track selection and highly praised productions. With a recent feature on Rødhåd’s fabric mix and a strong discography of his own, he’s shaped a distinct style of brain-melting machine wares paired with precise use of synths and FX. Proper timeless, functional techno that just works.

On #247, he nods to the stripped-back, raw energy of the early 2010s. A delicate balance between synthetic textures and mechanical drive.

Tune in and zone out.

013 - TEMASA

(interview below)
Temasa is a Hamburg based Techno DJ and Producer. As Resident of the renowned nightclub [PAL] he already made his way on the radar of the scene. In 2023 he launched his new event series 'NEOGEN' which focuses on emerging artists, who represent and rethink the genre's primal themes.

INTERVIEW
Tell us about your beginnings - how did your journey into music and DJing start?

My musical journey started very early - I started playing different instruments at the age of five. So music has always been an important part of my life. When I was 14, I discovered electronic music - especially minimal techno, dubstep and drum and bass. These genres immediately fascinated me and inspired me to become active myself. That's how I eventually got into DJing.

How do you envisage your sound developing over the next few years?

My sound is currently characterised by hypnotic, driving and groovy techno - and this core will remain in the future. At the same time, it's important to me to constantly evolve. I always want to have new influences to keep my sound modern and lively, without losing sight of the classic basic themes and the essence of techno as a genre.

If you could design your dream night - line-up, venue, vibe - what would it look like?

My dream night is not a classic headliner event. I really like discovering new artists and being surprised - that's why I appreciate parties where the line-up is carefully curated and up-and-coming acts are deliberately given a stage. If you avoid big names, the entrance fee can also remain more affordable, which in turn gives more people access to the event. I also like it when new venues are opened up or I can get to know new clubs. This mixture of openness, curiosity and community vibe often brings with it a very special energy and makes for the perfect night for me.
