It's time for an August podcast by the Copenhagen based Sugar (@sugar_fastforward). Deep, minimal but mostly hard-hitting.

Sugar is besides being a founding member of the Fast Forward Productions & Agency (@fastforwardproductions) a techno artist, whose artistic focus leans toward rolling deep and pounding grooves, atmospheric and eerie ambiences, emotional (dis)harmony and melodies, and a constant development in sound design, also searching the field of breakbeats and experimental electronic music.

Sugar is releasing his music with prominent contemporary record-labels like Euromantic (@politeandcourteous), Kulør (@kulorco), KAOS (@hectoroaks), Blue Hour music (@bluehour909), Mama told ya (@mamatoldya), his own recently launched label Perfumery (@perfumery_recordings), and has an upcoming EP on Bassiani Records (@bassiani).

TECH CLUBBERS PODCAST W/ MICHAL JABLONSKI

Born in Warsaw, Michal has been closely associated with the club culture of the capital of Poland for over a dozen years. 
The heavy sounds extracted from the black plastic disc inspired him to do more, to go a step further and create his own music. He sought inspiration in crowded cities and the correlation of nature with industrialized society. 
In music, he looks for something that is not obvious and still to discover. He is focus on his original productions, where you will find a rich mixture of dense industrial atmosphere, off beats sounds and monumental film music elements driven by energetic kick. He releases his music on VSK's CRS ltd, Secret Keywords or Newrhythmic recs. 
He and his partner run the Lost In Ether podcast series.

Dropa - The Unknow (Original Mix)

#006 Toxic Compilation 2025

ECHOBEAT - Line of Hate [Toxic Recordings]

Fabrizio Rat has clear ideas. « My project is simple» he affirms. « Take a piano, the classic and romantic instrument par excellence, and project it into the hypnotic and powerful soundscape of techno music ». As a matter of fact, the 34 years old comes from a double background. He’s a classically trained pianist who practised improvisation and composed contemporary music, but since his teenage years he has produced electronic music, and spent hours and days with computer, synthesisers and drum machines.

« After many years of practice my musical path seemed to be planned. ». « The ‘traditional’ way of playing the piano had bored me. I knew too well the instrument, I couldn’t be creative any more with the codes and rules I had learnt. I was looking for a new way to approach the instrument, a balance between chance and control, similar to the feeling you get by working instinctively on synthesizers. I realized I had many things to learn from analogue electronic instruments, which represent more than just strictness and precision. These machines, far from being ‘perfect’, almost have feelings I believe, and they behave unexpectedly and unpredictably at times. I thought that by studying and trying to discover their secrets I might be able to push to new boundaries my ‘machine’ from the very beginning, the piano. »

Following two Eps, ‘’La Machina’’ and ‘’Technopiano’’, Fabrizio Rat releases his first album of hybrid techno, with an innovative sound palette. The Pianist combines the acoustic sounds and weird harmonics of his prepared piano with the acid loops of the TB-303 and the beats of the TR-909. « I’m much attracted by a certain type of techno, based on the purity of sound. This music can really approach abstraction, the immateriality of thought and ideas. » A track like “Aimard”, for example, is characteristic of his ambition. « It’s a sort of tunnel. It does not develop apart from a few ‘turning points’, in a similar way to lots of tracks by Jeff Mills, who has been a big inspiration to me for a long time. I feel attracted to his radical approach to techno and his taste of sonic exploration. Many tracks by him have an incredible character. As the records starts, you’re all of a sudden facing a new world. That’s exactly what I am most interested in, to find a strong vibe of a track, much more then constructing a form with evolution and surprises. »
“Gould”, just before “Aimard” in the record, has the same strength but plays with rhythmic elements in a more subtle way.
« It’s not really techno, but still hypnotic. The first version of it had lots of 909 in it, which has been little by little removed, following the advices of Arnaud Rebotini who co-produced the album and released it on his label. Arnaud pushed me towards a more radical and extreme direction, putting the piano on the forefront and simplifying the rhythmical patterns, to be more effective. This gives to the final result more impact I think. »

Unsurprisingly, it’s in front of the dancefloor, in clubs or festivals, that Fabrizio plays his live sets. With the right hand he plays repetitive rhythmical patterns while the left one handles the machines (effects, TB-303, TR-8) and manipulates the piano strings.
His goal is to reach « the trance, to project on the dancers the hypnotic state of my right hand moving on the piano ».
