Dirty Epic presents its seventh episode of the Amplify Series podcasts, this time welcoming @radioslave aboard.

Matt Edwards is a bonafide powerhouse of underground dance music. Over the course of more than fifteen years, the Berlin based artist has established himself as a leading A&R, influential producer and esteemed DJ, all with his own unique and immediately recognisable style. In that time, Radio Slave has emerged as his most celebrated alias. It has seen him evolve from remixing pop tunes into someone with a distinctive musical identity that focusses on high pressure, slow release sounds that cannot fail to lock you in.
That famously loopy and hypnotic brand of house and techno is built on a solid bed of kicks and often interlaced with hypnotic vocals. It has taken him to high profile DJ sets everywhere from Fabric to Womb to Cocoon, as well as being a regular at Berghain and Panorama Bar where he has hosted his own Rekids label parties since 2007.
Ten years later came a first ever Radio Slave album, Feel The Same. It was a stylistically broad affair that made the most of the album format to show off all the different facets of Edwards’ musical personality. Across thirteen productions it touched on grinding and strobe-lit rave cuts, deeper, stripped-back headfucks, slick electro jams, mid-tempo jungle breaks and tripped-out house efforts. All of these sounds and more feature in one of his DJ sets, which are absorbing, heavily layered things that pull you in over and over again.
In 2017, Edwards’ Rekids label hit its 100th release with a special EP from Matt that featured two typically monstrous and club-slaying tracks in ‘Another Club’/‘Feel The Same.’  These follow on from modern classics like ‘Grindhouse,’ ‘Don’t Stop No Sleep’ and ‘Bell Clap Dance’, which were ubiquitous club hits that solidified Radio Slave’s long form and absorbing production style. But of course, the label has not only been the outlet for Edwards’ own work: it is also a place that he has proven his rare knack for A&R time and time again thanks to signing now internationally celebrated talents like Nina Kraviz and Mr G.
Alongside all this, Edwards—who is still a hapless musical fanboy at heart—has established plenty of other projects, most notably Quiet Village with Joel Martin. Focussed on downtempo sounds infused with elements of ambient, dub and synth music, it recently spawned a much-loved remix of Agnes Obell and promises a new album in 2018. It is sure to reflect yet another side of Edwards’ expansive sound world that also takes in major label remix work for the likes of Kylie, Paul McCartney and Elton John, as well as underground favourites like Dinky, Scuba and Aphrohead.
Whether making, playing or A&Ring music, Edwards always disregards the zeitgeist. For that reason he remains a timeless talent who sets his own essential agenda.

Amplify Series 007 - Radio Slave

@twr72 pioneers a forward thinking approach towards electronic music: a fusing and pulsing rhythm with a cutting drive, binding it with a strong signature groove. Amsterdam based, he premiered a collaboration with Truncate in 2014. This was the same year in which @floatrecords was established. With Float Records, TWR72 explores the combination of perfection and simplicity shown by both new talented producers as well as renowned artists. 

Between 2016 and 2020, he had his debut in Techno’s most praised club, Berghain, he released the successful EP ‘X’ on his own label and surprised with the unique series "ERROR' which all let to touring around Europe and the US. 
In 2020, TWR72 started a 2nd label for his long love and passion: the Techno era of the late nineties, early twenties. A turbulent phase with a dynamic culture and rapid developments. Many describe it as the golden era of Techno. OOM records brings back that memorable sound with high BPM loop groovers for a new era.

Celebrating a milestone is what TWR72 did with the 50th release on Float Records called 'Void'. He continuous his journey with his debut on Mindtrip with 'Mono' and has some things up his sleeve for the rest of 2021. 
Tracky, stripped-back and tough as hell, TWR72 delivers today an ultra-lean 1 hour cut of prime Techno.

E-HRZN Presents: GRVTY Mix 022 featuring K-H1

ALLPA PURUMA, He was born on April 6, 1995 in the suburbs of Buenos Aires. He is a musician, producer and composer. His first approach to electronic music was at the age of 11, discovering artists such as Chemical Brother, Oliver Huntemann, Cirez D among others. Over time, he expanded his musical spectrum, being influenced by bands such as Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Black Sabbath, and Pink Floyd. Finding inspiration in psychedelic music and motivated by his friends, he acquired his first musical instrument, which would allow him to begin a stage of sound experimentation that he still carries out. Without prejudices and with the constant need to connect with music, he embarks on a journey, where he consolidates his beats playing percussion and other instruments such as djembe, didgeridoo, zicus, charango. Upon his return to Argentina, he once again became involved with electronic music, focusing his attention on Techno, a genre that encouraged him to take music production classes and without leaving aside his native instruments, incorporating drum machines and synthesizers.

On The Dancefloor We Meet

STUDIO SESSION // Strave //005//

My next guest on Yax Invites is Amsterdam based, Chafa.

Doctor Chaff started his electronic way between 2017 and 2018 when he started going to events in Galicia.

As soon as he fell in love with techno, he started mixing and made his debut in 2022 in a small known venue from Santiago de Compostela, called ‘Black Club’.

His mix goes mostly between raw and dark techno, genres that deeply resonate with his musical sensibility offering slow and hypnotic rhythms to the audience. This shift propelled him to continue his pursuit of intense and atmospheric sounds that would provide a unique auditory experience.
