Gwo Ka is music born in Guadeloupe and stands for big drum. It is the union of music, dance, and spirit. 
Two drummers are playing a specific rhythm as the base. The “Makè”, the third drummer, is placed at the center to follow, feel and whisper any of the dancers gestures. He matches the rhythm and energy of the dancers, becoming their shadow, and establishing a real dialogue between them. 
With my project I want to translate the rhythms of Gwo Ka in every upcoming mix. 
There are seven specific rhythms.
This one is "Mennde", dedicated to celebration and escape.

Enjoy

"Gwo ka is a dance of improvisation, a dance of the instinct, of the moment…
It´s dance of resistance, of resilience and adaptation: A Dance of Life"

THERE IS NO MOVEMENT WITHOUT RHYTHM

MENNDE

France’s proliferation of techno talent is hard to contest these days, but Mathys Lenne’s here in case you had any doubts. The DJ/producer also goes by The Scan, and makes up half of Classic Blue, pushing forward a steely vision of the genre that’s both shrewd and quick as a whippet. Alongside projects on HAYES, his beats have shown up too as vinyl EP on Blue Hour’s eponymous record label as well as a debut LP on Dutch powerhouse MORD (2023). It’s a hard hitting genus of techno that borrows from the layered and cognitive approach employed by forebears Efdemin and Float Records label boss TWR72. He’s been busy, and found a powerful voice he spends night after night bringing to dancefloors and headphones alike. For Bassiani Podcast 206, the francophone techno envoy weaves a complex mesh of warped kicks that doesn’t let up for a second, a building tension only someone with faculties as sharp as his could successfully maintain. If this is the first time you’ve heard his name you’d be wise to take note, with an ear like his, little can stop him.

What a sweaty night that was.
Took me a bit to get into it but once I was in the zone, everything flowed. That soundsystem and acoustic really gives you headroom to experiment and blend stuff together. Zuper fun! Good headphones recommended.

3 hours recorded at Tresor Berlin. 

A debut night to remember forever

A lot of good memories about the night and time of deep and hard focus that only deepened my connection to the sound and the journey. My vision of it is not always precise, smooth, but that’s the essence of what techno is: Raw, evolving, and imperfect. Every set is a step forward, a lesson learned. 
Enjoy the music, as much I did.

A rising force in the next wave of techno, BLANKA has swiftly earned acclaim for her finesse both behind the decks and in the studio — and this Glitch podcast is a perfect example of why the Spanish artist sits at the core of today’s thriving scene. She delivers a 65-minute minimalist set, weaving hypnotic loops and trippy textures into a mysterious subterranean world of hidden experiments, captivating both body and mind. As BLANKA puts it, "Sometimes less is more."

Glitch Podcast 093 / BLANKA

Amsterdam-based DJ and producer Lasse has been making steady waves in the city’s underground, balancing a no-frills, club-ready sound with a deeper commitment to community and expression. As co-founder of Vulged, an event series rooted in intimacy and integrity, and 1/5 of the Undivulged collective, he’s built his reputation not just behind the decks, but through fostering spaces where freedom and sound collide.

With high-octane releases like Sphinx, The Bush, and Rogue, Lasse has laid down his sonic fingerprint defined by heavyweight low-ends, gritty synthwork, and hypnotic propulsion. Whether self-released or spun across the scene’s more daring dancefloors, his tracks speak in strobe language: direct, punchy, and built for motion.

For #256, he delivers a set that doesn’t ask politely; it commands. Shuffling between pressure-cooked grooves and glinting synth tension, Lasse takes the long route to euphoria, with a few detours through the sweatier corners of the rave.

Get in, hold tight, and let the mix speak for itself.
