Forward thinking uptempo selections mixed with precision and care by an artist focused on quality above all else: Robert Istoc.

"whilst some of you may know him under his previous alias of dubtil, over the last year or so robert istoc has been hard at work transitioning his artist name to that of his own… a truer reflection of his vision for the sounds emanating both out of his studio and that of his dj sets. not one for boundaries and limits, robert has been evolving his style with a sharper focus on classic (and classy) techno sounds with delightful sprinkles of syncopation here and there (and the odd surprise or two). if you have caught any of his last few sunwaves recordings floating about on soundcloud, you’ll instantly hear what we are referring to. this marks a wondrous transformation from the chapter of the subtle nuanced minimalism era of dubtil into exciting uncharted new aural territories as robert. to commemorate this, he’s also launched a new label on bandcamp called attitudes, releasing new material alongside companion mixes on his soundcloud.

we are so excited and grateful that robert has taken the time to put together something for us that accurately reflects a snapshot into his current sonic palate… our ears are ready for the education and our minds are ready to expand!

(bonus points if you catch his potential last release as dubtil on his infrequent record label, infrequent02 releasing soon!)"

Robert Istoc - Live on ultrawizardsword.net (08-16-24)

This year we have started a new monthly in-store stream series focused on bringing forward both renowned and fresh artists from the romanian electronic music scene and from abroad.
Our first guest for this new endeavour is Robert Istoc. Many of you already know him by his Dubtil alias, a name he used for many years, under which he played and has put out numerous qualitative releases.
Under the Robert Istoc name, he has taken a shift in the dynamic of the music he produces. To better understand this 'identity shift' we strongly recommend checking out his vinyl releases on his new label 'Infrequent' and his 'Attitudes' project on Bandcamp.

deep cuts w/ Robert Istoc

No, not the reincarnation of the King Of Rock n Roll, but more like a speedrun along obsessive grooves. Flip the record for the stripped slomo version. Coming soon in a record store near you

Emi - ElVis EP  - DRAGANENII 005  - coming soon

Influenced by many different styles, it's hard to describe the tracks to any specific genre. Maybe they sound familiar to some of you - we thought now it's the right time to release them on wax.

4 tracks, each of them well dancefloor approved and with a unique touch for every hour of the night. Have fun <3

The Toi.Toi.Agency welcomes great talent: Topper.

Topper has been a long friend and fellow artist with those on our roster and myself. Standing within the same ideology as we do as a group, the quality we stand for and above all, the moral code: respect to others and to our music, humbleness, dignity and a sense of togetherness by being part of this amazing unit of friends & music lovers. 

The Club Der Visionaere resident, hosts the infamous Noisy Glance party and together with Daniele Papini he joined Sleep is Commercial a few years back and became one of the djs/producers on which the label's sound in productions and parties is focused on. He is also a resident in all Sleep is Commercial parties in Berlin.

Moving to the infamous Pausenraum studio was the definitive shift into a jam based creative process through a hardware setup, whose outcome has been the foundation of the Dead Rail and Triptease project-labels.

The last couple of years he has also focused a lot on live performance, at first with the Triptease project with his lifelong friends Jacopo and Francesco, soon joined by their buddy Hugo. Together they came up with the idea of Mescaleros, a cutting-edge experiment with different performers joining into the live improv jam of the likes of Ambiq, Cesar Merveille, Ion Ludwig, Daniele Papini, Silent People, Yonatan Levi and Greg Paulus among others.

The Mescaleros project has already been performed in iconic venues such as Club der Visionaere and Hoppetosse in Berlin, Fuse Club in Brussels, Studio 338 and Red Gallery in London etc etc.) and delivered hours(up to 17!) of powerful beats and sparkling musical ideas.

Toi Toi Mix Series 20 by Topper

This weekend Dubtil will lead a line up with our dear Suciu and G76 at the club, this set in intended to get you warmed up to the occasion and to announce Dubtil will be one of the regular artists you will see playing at the club more often these days.  

For this specific mix I have decided to use XLR8R''s podcast words as I lacked my own when writing about one of Romania's most understated artists.

Here it is:

"Robert Istoc leads a quiet existence. Having moved from Bacău to Bucharest, the majority of his time—when not DJing—is split between making music in his home studio or walking his beloved dog in one of the city's numerous parks. "I like to spend time with my thoughts," he explains, quietly. "I enjoy being alone."

As an artist, he is similarly discreet. Barring a brief profile on the Sunrise Booking Agency website, there are absolutely no details to be found on him. There has not been one interview and there is only one recorded mix available to stream, published in March 2014 by nightclubber. Despite a production and DJ career that spans almost eight years, he doesn’t yet have a Resident Advisor page; if you wish to find out his touring dates and see him play then you must rely on either Facebook or fortune. Indeed, the few times I’ve seen him—including May’s Sunwaves Festival and June’s Arpiar event in Barcelona—have been down to the latter; and on each occasion he has been the highlight on a lineup that included the likes of Raresh, Rhadoo, Cezar and Petre Inspirescu.

That being said, those who have grown to appreciate the rolling grooves coming out of Romania over recent years will likely have heard Dubtil’s name—or almost certainly heard his music played out. His blissful “Isitor” track was a standout on Raresh’s Fabric78 release, and many of Romania’s more lauded names are known to use unreleased Dubtil productions in their sets. But for those true followers of this vibrant scene—those who take time to explore beyond the work of these main figures—Dubtil’s allure is growing to be something of a main attraction. His Sunwaves set was as well attended as any; and his productions—very few of which ever see release—expose an artist with considerable studio skill."



Happy Listening!
