techno new and hot

In the heart of Neukölln, where concrete met cosmos and the city never truly slept, Johann Bello rose with the dawn—not because he had to, but because sound waited for him.

By day, he moved like a shadow through the world—quiet, observant, often barefoot in his studio, where dust from last night's forest rave still clung to his sleeves. By night, he became a cartographer of feeling, etching emotional maps into waveforms with tempo as slow as memory and melodies that whispered like leaves in twilight.

They called it Schneckno—a genre born half-jokingly at a lakeside jam, now adopted seriously by dancers who preferred to sway rather than stomp. Johann didn’t invent the word, but he gave it rhythm, pulse, and purpose. His sets weren’t just music—they were invitations to breathe slower, feel deeper, and return to the human pace.

Slomosensual 92 by Johann Bello

That sunny morning in July, Hekske (the little witch) woke up in her home forest, which was exceptionally lush and green after some good rains. Since one week, the rain had stopped and the forest was really sunny and pleasant. While she was still stretching her body before getting up, her friend Bob The Owl flew by in a hurry, warning her that there was an intruder in the forest. That was really strange, as humans are strictly barred from entering these woods by guard animals. The girl quickly slipped into her immaculately white dress and followed the owl. Within minutes, she saw the ‘intruder’. It appeared to be a little blond girl, around 9 years of age (which was by actually the witch’s own age when she arrived in the forest 10 years ago). Judging from her clothes, the girl was obviously human, yet she seemed to feel herself very much at ease in the woods, and she was playing and giggling with a family of squirrels.
The little witch approached the girl, who didn’t get scared when she saw her. For a few seconds they looked at each other and it struck the witch that this child had all the typical traits of a witch : sparkling eyes, a shiny soft skin and a character nose. Her pale blue eyes were beyond mesmerizing and seemed to be the gate to a vast inner universe. The little girl felt immediately comfortable with the witch and they engaged in a long tender hug. Despite the fact that they were unable to talk to each other, they immediately felt a strong bond between them … which strangely seemed to have started centuries ago. When walking through the forest, all animals got very curious and wanted to say hello to the new little blond girl. The witch requested the weaver birds to sew a tiny white dress for the girl. One hour later the dress was ready and the child was very eager to try it on. She looked incredibly cute in the immaculately white dress and all the forest animals uttered a collective ‘awwwwww’. She also had to shed her sneakers as witches always go barefoot. The first steps were a bit hesitant but once she felt the soft clover of the central meadow, the girl started to dance spontaneously, and she played with the butterflies. Soon the place was filled with laughter and giggles. The child had never been so happy in her whole life. Her human life had been a true ordeal with both her parents falling prey to drug abuse … and she was really determined to live a pure life far away from substances and all other vices of mankind, devoting her life to mother earth.
Next, the girl got introduced to the nymph (who is protecting the little oak tree which is destined to become the future mother tree of the forest) and they all took a dive in the nymph’s pond, where the little girl played with the dragonflies. For the rest, she simply enjoyed floating on the still water surface and looking at the little white clouds flying high in the blue sky. Despite being very playful, the girl also had the ability to be very peaceful and serene, just like a real witch.
The day quickly passed and soon nighttime fell. A family of dunnocks had made a soft bed of moss for the blond girl, but she preferred to snuggle with the little witch and got ready for her first night in the open air. The child was wondering why it was so dark, but she forgot about all that when she looked up in awe at the stars and the train of the milky way, which were clearly visible from the enchanted forest. And that’s how she slowly drifted away into a blissful sleep … her very first night in the open air … her very first night as a witch …

In Buste ailé en profil (Sphinx), created around 1898, Odilon Redon presents one of his most enigmatic and lyrical visions: a winged female bust depicted in profile, her gaze turned inward, suspended in a softly diffused, otherworldly space. Executed in pastel, the medium Redon came to favor in his mature years, the work reflects a masterful control of color, texture, and emotional resonance. The female figure is at once ethereal and monumental, a serene presence embodying both human grace and mythological mystery. Her wings are rendered with delicate transparency, evoking angelic or dreamlike qualities rather than physical force. The background, a luminous blend of warm and cool tones, enhances the sense of timelessness and detachment from earthly concerns.

This sphinx-like figure continues Redon’s deep engagement with the Symbolist ethos, which prioritized the inner, spiritual reality over literal or narrative depiction. The work invites contemplation rather than explanation. Instead of portraying a literal mythological sphinx, Redon abstracts the motif into an allegorical presence. The being hovers between states of animal and human, seen and imagined, ancient and eternal. The use of profile suggests classical portraiture or funerary sculpture, yet the soft rendering dissolves these references into reverie.

Created at a pivotal moment in Redon’s career, when he had moved beyond his earlier charcoal drawings and lithographs into the luminous world of color, Buste ailé en profil reveals his mature Symbolist vision. It reflects not only a shift in medium but also a transformation in mood and subject matter. Color becomes a spiritual force, gently illuminating the figure without fully defining it, allowing ambiguity and emotion to dominate.

The subject also reflects Redon’s enduring interest in mythology, mysticism, and the subconscious. By removing narrative cues and placing the figure in an undefined space, he encourages the viewer to engage in a quiet, introspective dialogue. The sphinx, traditionally a bearer of riddles and secrets, is reimagined here as a symbol of inward vision and poetic mystery.

In this exclusive set for MuséeCast, Enmaniguada crafts a deeply transportive auditory journey that blends ritual, memory, and layered rhythm. Rooted in the spiritual while embracing experimental electronic textures, the set unfolds like a ceremonial offering—meditative, physical, and fiercely alive.

Enmaniguada constructs a sound world that resists linear time. Pulses rise and fall like breath, inviting listeners into a trance-like space where ancestral knowledge collides with speculative futures. There is a tactile quality to her mixing: textures crackle and shimmer, low frequencies stir like distant thunder, and melodic fragments emerge like fading dreams before dissolving into silence.

Nocturnal Sessions EP. 4

What a privilege to play the good morning set for an important day on which two amazing people celebrating their love and the love for their friends on this beautiful weekend.

My goal was to ease everyone gently into what would become an incredible day. Started with those soft, mellow tracks to let people wake up naturally, then gradually built the energy to properly get those sleepy spirits moving.
The setting was super cute - right there poolside, watching people literally jump in the water to wake up and find their groove. There’s something special about being part of that transition from peaceful morning vibes to full celebration mode.

This set captures that whole journey - from those gentle wake-up moments to everyone coming alive and ready to celebrate.

Maybe this helps you as well to start your day ;)
