Juanita's Mix 062 with musclecars @musclecarsnyc

Q. How would you describe yourself?

Brandon: Light hearted, reserved and a deep thinker. 

Craig: Crazy, sexy, cool. 

Q. How long have you been a part of the NY music scene?

B: I’ve been a part of the scene since I was a teenager, well before I was legally allowed to be in a night club. I’m still discovering so much about our music scene; we have such a rich history. 

C: We’re both born and raised here so it’s like we’ve always been part of this scene. In and out of record shops pre-teenage years and sneaking into the clubs by 16/17. 

B: I also feel so fortunate for the community here in NYC. There really aren’t any other states in the U.S. that have a scene as vibrant and thriving as ours!

Q. Tell us a little bit about this mix.

B: We took a spontaneous approach when we recorded the mix. Craig would play a record,  and I would feed off of that energy when deciding what to play next. It’s similar to how we play live. Nothings’ rehearsed and the music selection is unconstrained. 

C: The mix is a good example of some of the sounds you may hear at the party we throw. Hour long sets can be tricky to encapsulate the entire mood in such a short time, but we try our best to let the mix sonically speak for itself.

REC 006 w/ Dyed Soundorom b2b Gene On Earth

The REC series compiles outstanding performances recorded in the club throughout the year, highlighting artists representing our love for electronic music.

Back in November 2022, Dyed Soundorom and Gene On Earth performed a stirring 3 hours long back-to-back in our Room 01. Along the way, the two protagonists deliver seamless transitions one after the other. Effortlessly.

Forging a voyage through house and beyond, the recording set is intuitively filled with flickering sounds and stripped-down grooves, as seductive as we like. Sometimes brainy yet made to make you move, it’s not your average artist combo. Nuggin’ it up!

Miramar Mixtape 051 - Marco Man (Late Night Burners / Amsterdam)

Better be ready for our next SPANDAU20 Mixtape guest: Swedish techno legend @CariLekebusch! 📼

Now based in Helsinki, Cari is a key figure from the second generation of techno producers in the late '80s and '90s. His relentless innovation has cemented his place as pioneer of the Swedish techno scene. With over thirty years in music, his reputation as a studio scientist is well-documented. Throughout his career, he has adopted numerous pseudonyms and consistently pushed the boundaries of techno.🚀

For his SPND20 mixtape, Cari keeps it minimal yet powerful on the gear side, with an Allen & Heath DB4 mixer and three Pioneer CDJs. He adds a unique touch with extra loops and sounds from his iPhone app, "EZPZ." If you’re into experimenting, you should definitely check it out—it's free!🔊

The mixtape revolves around the vibe of his upcoming album, "Hybrid Sound Architects V1.0," dropping June 24th on his label H-Productions. Expect a journey through sweaty, raw, and hypnotic soundscapes. The tape seamlessly blends deep, pulsing beats with abrasive, unrefined textures that keep you locked in from start to finish. Cari’s selections showcase a mix of new tracks from the album and other personal favorites, bringing a fresh yet timeless energy to the mix.🌀

An interesting fact for our fellow DJs and producers: Cari's registered this mix as a virtual mix on "aslice", ensuring all artists get their fair share.🖤

BCCO Podcast 380 is very special one. Today we are honoured to have electronic music pioneer Steve Rachmad aka STERAC with us with a two-hour set that was recorded live for promoter 01366 at the White Hotel in Manchester, UK.

Steve has used a range of aliases over his career reflecting his diverse outputs covering dub, disco and house. But STERAC’s focus has always been on the no-nonsense, darker, and deeper side of techno and this set is no exception to that.

We hope and expect you will love this set just as much as we did.

BCCO Mix Series 380: Sterac

From London’s inner suburbs comes this next guest, a through and through veteran of UK techno whose touch has left a lasting mark on the world around him. Steve Bicknell’s early days were spent in the intoxicating worlds of dub, reggae, acid, DIY warehouse parties and pirate radio, an auspicious mix of references that would inspire him to make music of his own. After a string of residencies at the UK’s then most influential parties, he launched his own series with creative collaborator Sheree Rashit: LOST. These legendary gatherings brought together names like Plaid, Jeff Mills, Juan Atkins, Robert Leiner, Basic Channel, and a wider array of future techno hegemons. This was swiftly succeeded with the duo’s launch of imprint Cosmic Records, whose triumph went on to spawn another three successors: LOST (early provider of Bicknell’s dancefloor sounds), Clubtracks (for Chicago-leaning fare) and ID(entity) (a channel for the work of well established music-makers who wanted to release under a secret alias). A nine-year pause in productions came to a halt in the mid 2010s with Steve’s most recent label, 6dimensions, an exploration in sound and the whole spectrum of human emotion. Finally, 2017 saw Steve team up with Luke Slater and David Sumner under the LSD sobriquet, a force for the creation of ‘lysergic machine music’, heavily danceable stuff (just ask ADE, Dekmantel, Awakenings). With a story as full and enduring as Steve’s there’s much to pull from, and only experience in the flesh could attest to the depth and scope of his musical evolution, but it’s clear that the voice he has honed has only become louder and more refined. It’s a techno that’s fully embodied, a blistering percussive barrage that invokes something profoundly human and fundamental. Bassiani Podcast 217 is just a taste of what Steve has to offer, a window onto a world of sound he’s meticulously crafted for over three decades: masterfully layered and piercing sounds that shimmer and relentlessly rise in lockstep with a formidable 4/4 beat.

Sound researcher & music enthusiast based in Berlin, his mixes reflect his passion & experience of digging for vinyl in thrift shops, selecting music for deep listening sessions, the building of an underground radio station, organizing open air parties, playing live at clubs & festivals.

He strive to recreate a feeling that everyone is longing for - an endless sunset filled with orange light, an ocean view, a dance floor full of smiles.

This mix of disco house and jazzy beats, often with hypnotic percussion and elements of dub - rough towards the edges, a constant battle against the human compulsion for cohesion.

A true pioneer of the techno scene, Italian DJ and producer Gaetano Parisio needs no introduction but we'll just underline that since his first steps in the then-burgenoning electronic world back in 1992, his influence on the sound hasn't flinched one bit. Responsible for countless seminal releases on the likes of Primate, Zenit, Mosaic, his own structures Conform, ART and Southsoul and a myriad more, Gaetano has been pushing techno in new directions with ultimate drive and devotion to duty. Clocking in with a two-hour trip into his boundary-pushing headspace, the Neapolitan maestro treats us to a wild ride of trampling uptempo funk, sci-fi-indebted flights and further alien-engineered heaters. The forward-looking power of rave in its purest expression.

Garrett is a Washington-born and Brooklyn-based producer, DJ, and live performer who performs under both the moniker Pacifix (@pacifixsounds) since 2014, and Gbar (@gbargbar) since 2023.

While continuing to experiment with genres and keeping his Pacifix (@pacifixsounds) project going, upon moving to Brooklyn Garrett dove deep into the city’s underground scene and evolved his sound, leading him to decide to start a new project 'Gbar' (@gbargbar), which is more focused on darker, psychedelic, and raw underground music. 

He has sinced released 2 EPs, and an Album under Gbar on Brooklyn-based label Earth Dog Records (@earthdogbk | https://earthdog1.bandcamp.com/music)

Alongside DJing and producing, Pacifix has been developing hardware-based live sets that are raw and improvisational style. His performances blend deep and progressive tech house with psychedelic grooves, bass-driven broken beat, hypnotic techno, and organic textures—drifting between deep listening and dance floor euphoria.

Pacifix treats electronic music not just as sound, but as ritual—crafting sets that feel both intimate and expansive. Drawing from Brooklyn’s DIY energy and the natural mysticism of his Pacific Northwest roots, he fuses these influences into a sonic identity that is his own.
