Ponky is a DJ, producer, and co-founder of the Dissonance Collective, shaping a sound deeply influenced by funk and hip hop. With a strong focus on percussion, he blends synthetic rhythms with 90s house and rap acapellas, crafting dynamic and engaging sets. His mixes move fluidly between hardgroove, hypnotic textures, and break beats, creating an immersive experience that keeps listeners locked in.

For this mix, he approached it as he would a live set, starting with an ambient intro before building power and tension throughout. Always seeking to avoid monotony, he shifts towards a groovier energy towards the end. Rather than relying on predefined playlists, he selects tracks based on instinct, storytelling, and the emotions he wants to share with his audience.

BCCO Mix Series 534: PŌNKY

Georgian powerhouse Yanamaste drops long-anticipated new EP on Mutual Rytm.

In-demand DJ/producer Yanamaste is a resident at Georgia’s renowned Khidi Club and a key part of Amsterdam’s Vault Sessions crew. His unique sound and fresh creative approach result in raw and visceral techno, reflecting his passion for pushing boundaries and showcased perfectly via his ‘Dance’ EP on Vault last year. Now, he returns with an EP born out of the creative process behind his live set with a debut appearance on SHDW’s Mutual Rytm, ‘Evil’ - a collection of heavily-requested tracks that have already made an impact after featuring in his Boiler Room and Stone Techno Festival livestream.

‘Evil’ kicks things off with perfectly rubbery, funky drum patterns and an urgent sense of movement that sweeps you off your feet. ‘Lahante’ is more percussive, with busy snares riding the rolling, forceful drums and stark synths arresting your attention. ‘Dragonfly’ is perfectly reduced via minimal drums intertwined with thunderous effects and ghoulish energy, while ‘Modulation Detected’ has a more cosmic feel as it journeys into the future with whispered spoken words and synths searching across the face of the groove. Last but not least is the irresistible broken beat goodness of ‘Walking On Mars’, with its swinging kicks and vast bassline spraying about the mix beneath hypnotic melodic patterns.

Two superb bonus cuts, ‘Ohohoi’ and ‘Pwiu’, are also provided for digital buyers, bringing further gems loaded with moody depths and compelling rhythms.

Yanamaste ‘Evil’ lands on Mutual Rytm on 7th March 2025.
