Previews for my album "Dark Shape" on Axis records, September 10th.

www.axisrecords.com/product/decoder-dark-shape/

In the year 2147, governments had been overthrown on an intergalactic scale, and Earth had been conquered by a mysterious alien force that had appeared in a large cube-like ship that people had begun to refer to as "The Shape". Nothing went in or out of the ship, although it had been broadcasting messages electronically in order to not only communicate, but also digitally take control of the human race.

Decoder:  Gautham Garg, better known as Decoder, is a 17 year old producer from Dallas, Texas. Inspired by the sounds of space and the deep unknown, he tries to transmit his vision of techno through sci fi and minimalist soundscapes. Some of his greatest inspirations include Jeff Mills, Terrence Dixon, Evod, Aleksi Perala, Franz Jager, and Damon Wild.

Little mashup between 2 of my fav Mills tracks

Jeff Mills - If (We) X Humana (Decoder Edit)

SPOKEN050 - Decoder

For our special 50th edition of the series we invited the Dallas based producer and DJ who specializes in the realm of minimal and sci fi techno. He has been making a name for himself in the scene during the past few years and has been named by Richie Hawtin as the new generation of U.S. techno. With an emphasis on deep kicks and rolling sequences, he has had notable releases on labels such as Axis, Float, Subsist, and his own imprint Codec Recordings.

This infectious mix with extensive and subtle layering will be a certain treat for your ears!

Enjoy! ❤️

SPOKEN050 - Decoder

A man of intergalactic descent, US-born and based producer Decoder graces us with one of his ever inspired cross-dimensional sonic journeys - the kind of you know will have you sailing off to Saturn’s ring in a flash, but not the date you’ll get back. Cosmically boundless and exploratory by nature, his sound has already conquered the likes of Jeff Mills’ future-facing Axis imprint, Codec, Float and Subsist, establishing a non-pareil signature sound in today’s techno landscape; both unique in the experience it offers and palette it delves from. Out-of-this-world in all regards, tune in for a proper engrossing alien-engineered jaunt in the greater void.

Decoder for DifferentSound Podcast #261.

Decoder is a Dallas based music producer and DJ specializing in the realm of sci-fi & deep techno. His music is often filled with ambitious soundscapes, rolling sequences, and off kilter sound design.

Early in March 2021, Decoder saw his first release "The  Futurist" come to life on the Italian label "Antiterra". Following the EP came a consistent schedule of releases, including releases on labels such as Bomphcast, Srie Records, and his own imprint Codec Recordings. The year also saw the release of his first album, "Monolithic Activity Spectrum" on the Spanish label "Subsist". Decoder ended the year with his second album release "Dark Shape", which was put out on Jeff Mills' legendary imprint "Axis".

The first half of 2022 showed no signs of slowing down, as Decoder's "Moro Safa EP" was released on Amsterdam based label "Float Records". It also saw the third full length album titled "Plurality Module" released on Subsist. The  latter half of the year saw his first 12" vinyl release  "Singularity 2" released  on Dallas native label "Science Cult", as well as his follow up release on Float Records titled "Kanavugal".

These releases have also garnered Decoder support from many artists including the likes of Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, Ben Sims, Jeroen Search, TWR72, Yanamaste, to name a few. 

Decoder's touring schedule has also seen notable moments, including shows played for Infra (Boston), BCCO (Berlin), Cialo (Poland), Neighbourhood (London), among others.

(Previews) Decoder - Ghanaprajna [Fixed Rhythms]

Label heads Decoder and Jay York return to Toca with their second release, a split EP titled "Distance". This new collection of tracks aims to resonate with home listeners and DJs alike, offering a profound journey that balances introspective depth with dancefloor functionality. 

“Distance” emerges from the spaces between – the physical and creative distances that have shaped the music crafted by the duo for this release. Despite the miles apart due to their intense touring schedules, they have harnessed their separation as a source of inspiration, resulting in an EP that reflects the nature of their circumstances. While each track has its own unique theme, the tracks share a common motif with minimalistic yet emotive layers of sound that invites listeners to delve into more deeper and introspective ideas. Each piece within the EP exemplifies the artists’ ability to create a sonic bridge that serves as an auditory journal of their experiences.

BINÄR PODCAST 033 // DECODER

I found this track in Ricardo's Fabric mix and was bummed that it was only 2 minutes long and was unreleased. I've always wanted to make a playable version for the clubs and this edit is the result I came up with :D

Vault Sessions #220 - Decoder

Label: Blank Code

Artist: Decoder
Title: Distant Beings
Release Date: Tuesday 28 January 2025
Format: Vinyl & Digital
CAT#: BCR014

01. Missing Sector
02. Strange Interaction
03. Farther
04. Elevation

Blank Code is a Detroit, USA techno outfit that have released music by artists like Bas Mooy, Mike Parker, Brian Sanhaji, DJ Hyperactive, Drumcell, and many more.

The newest Blank Code recruit is Decoder with his 'Distant Beings' EP, a fellow American from Dallas who has gained many devoted supporters from having releases on Jeff Mills' Axis Records, Amotik Records, TWR72's Float, Edit Select Records, Molecular Recordings, and Science Cult, amongst others.

Beginning with "Missing Sector," a dystopian and airy soundscape of captivating rattlesnake hisses and muted tones of melody and suspense amidst a stuttering kick pattern.

"Strange Interaction" follows with an abstract approach overall, but using a solid, rhythmic beat as a pulsing constant. Static crackles create mesmerising textures and light tom drums are met with wandering waves of analogue whispers and skipping hats.

"Farther" introduces deep and looping modular frequencies that dance around in a sci-fi aesthetic. This sublimely hypnotic track has an ethereal quality of patience and draws influence from dubby and atmospheric styling.

Finishing with "Elevation," it instantly has an experimental vibe that seems mysterious and menacing. Cyclical mid tones create a sonic suction before phasing pulses add even more tension to this esoteric adventure.

Dallas based producer Decoder (@iamdecoder) lands on Delsin with four versatile techno interpretations. From deep and immersive techno hypnotica to emotive electro bliss. It’s a well rounded EP with some type of elegance from a young producer who seems to have been doing this for decades. Decoder’s sound palette is warm and forceful, very direct yet still sensitive.

Decoder - Anutva (DSR-C24)

Decoder is an emergent Dallas producer whose 1st appearances arrived in 2021 with a trio of albums, including Dark Shape on Mills’ mighty Axis, followed by further full lengths & numerous EPs on respected imprints such as Holland’s Float, Detroit’s Blank Code, and untouchable techno tastemakers Delsin, plus his own Toca, co-run with NYC-based Jay York, whose similarly hyperactive productivity defines their alliance. Already known across the US thanks to Hawtin’s From Our Minds tour, his worldwide notice is sure to increase with each high-profile release. From Another Star harnesses the stargazing end of his already-alien sound sphere on Vinveli, five tracks of midtempo trips saturated in extraterrestrial atmosphere.  
Cycling bleeps in ‘Gasui’ serve to enforce stasis over motion as he elegantly assembles a dynamic orbital system, with gaseous, evaporating clouds brushed aside to reveal its insistently chugging inner works. Dense, dark, and unstable, ‘Drona’ voyages through the center of a freshly-exploded supernova nebula still expanding rapidly, with deadly detritus flashing past the viewscreens. A rippling, zapping lead carves its way through the center of ‘447’, continuously assuming unfamiliar shapes while rotating elements surrounding it create organic, evolving forms. ‘Standing’ displays the pulsating, eroded tones and sparse percussion touch that defines his style, its midrange a bath of reverb wash while subtle, changeable elements intertwine. Forward movement is almost an afterthought: this is music of drift, a broken warp drive stranded in deep space while anxiety builds throughout the crew. ‘Service’ ends on a more strident tone, an eight-minute epic whose rising momentum blasts its astronauts firmly past our solar system into unsettling isolation.
