Awakenings Podcast S334 - Slam

Hailing from Dublin, Aero has rapidly established himself as one of Ireland’s most vital techno artists, carving out a distinct identity grounded in the ethos of purist techno. His sound—a fusion of hard-edged grooves and funk-infused textures—has been a driving force on Irish dancefloors for over half a decade, reflecting a deep understanding of the genre’s lineage.

Aero’s productions channel the raw energy of 90s and early 2000s techno, reimagined with a modern sensibility. Releases on respected imprints like Planet Rhythm, Index Marcel Fengler, and Entourage Concept have showcased his ability to craft precision-engineered tracks, built for peak-time impact. Supported by figures such as Amelie Lens, Freddy K, and Richie Hawtin, Aero’s music speaks to both the genre’s roots and its forward trajectory.

As a DJ, Aero’s adaptability is his hallmark. Whether commanding a warehouse with relentless multi-deck intensity or carefully calibrating selections for an opening set in a low-lit basement, his control of atmosphere and energy is what sets him apart. With an extensive knowledge of techno’s past and present, Aero is as much a selector as he is a craftsman, positioning himself at the forefront of Ireland’s contemporary techno scene.

#SlamRadio - 630 - Aero

This set is a futuristic journey through the upcoming releases on my label, Wrong Theory, featuring artists such as _GODO, Heckerman, YearsAstray, Catalina, D- BUNK, Take Karaka, MarsAttacx, and myself.

Lately, I’ve been shifting and exploring higher BPMs and tribal influences, and I wanted to include some of those tracks—slowed down—to fit the narrative of this set. It’s a reflection of my vision and my evolving relationship with new-school techno.

I hope you enjoy it!

#SlamRadio - 631 - The Unborn Child

This sublime mix was recorded at Slam's monthly Return To Mono party at the Sub Club in Glasgow. After that night Niamh Jobson was immediately asked to become a resident at RTM. 

some heartfelt words from kairogen:
it’s hard to process that i won’t be able to dj with niamh jobson again when we were just getting started.

i remember meeting before this set to practice, niamh realising she’d forgotten all her usb’s - later found in the washing machine. that day, it felt like we were making breakthroughs, refining our styles and finding a space further up the bpm scale that worked together. i called it ‘dark groove’ - her minimal, stylish sound with a funky, sexy edge that kept things rolling without being too obvious.

we were excited to play, but the night had its challenges. niamh had been battling osteosarcoma and had recently had her leg amputated, now replaced with a silver sparkly prosthetic. my playlists hadn’t copied over, which i realised five minutes before the set - shaking hands, sweat forming - until niamh handed me a spare usb and i got back on track.

niamh was so unwell at the time that even djing was hard. i remember fixing the jogwheel when she could hardly reach, sorting her wig, and narrowly saving a track from cutting to silence.
we laughed when i also accidentally paused the track that was playing - we’d both always panic but laugh through these moments, which is what friendship behind the decks is all about. some things going wrong and loads of things going right is what makes djing fun, especially b2b - being in sync while keeping individuality.

niamh’s ability came so quickly and effortlessly, and i only wish we had been able to hear more. she had a deep knowledge of sound for her age. it’s frustrating that she had so much more to give, but what she achieved musically in such a short time was huge and will always be a special memory.
❤️

#SlamRadio - 635 - Niamh Jobson B2B Kairogen

The Hop

Originally from Finland, Carmen Electro's formative years were shaped by her experiences in America and across Europe, each destination leaving an indelible mark on her artistic identity.

Drawing inspiration from her diverse upbringing, Carmen's DJ sets pay homage to the rich legacy of techno. While she seamlessly navigates through various electronic music genres, it's techno that serves as the red thread tying everything together. Her electrifying performances are more than just DJ sets; they're transformative experiences designed to awaken the primitive dancer within us all. With an affinity for old-school raves, she effortlessly channels her boundless energy into every track, creating an atmosphere that touches on different emotions from deep to tribal, from ecstatic, to pounding. The most meaningful experiences in her artistic life have been connecting with people to whom dance was the only way to express their identity freely, against the environment or society's expectations.

Her fearless attitude towards DJing mirrors her approach to life itself. Carmen believes in living life to the fullest, embracing new experiences, and pushing the boundaries of comfort to foster personal and artistic growth. For her, vinyl isn't just a medium; it's a tool for self-expression and exploration, allowing her to connect with audiences on a deeper level.
