Rødhåd b2b Ignez at Turmbühne Fusion 2024

"Compared to my last two mixes, which explored introspective travels with layered textures and evolving phases, this one goes straight for the dance floor. I wanted to channel something more extroverted and built for movement. It strips back to the essentials with a 4x4 pulse, raw body music, and a strong rhythmic drive that carries everything forward without holding back."

Olivia Mendez is a vinyl-only DJ, selector, and curator whose sets weave deep, minimalistic techno. Her sound is rooted in rhythm—shaped by her early years as a percussionist and dancer, and refined through a deep immersion in London’s underground scene between 2006 and 2011.

A passionate digger with a background in music journalism and event curation, Olivia approaches her sets as narrative journeys—sonorous, layered, and emotionally resonant. From Brooklyn to Kiev, she’s queered consciousness through sound, creating dancefloors that pulse with tension, release, and intent.

She is the founder of KONVENT, a FLINTA collective dedicated to reshaping feminist discourse through site-specific music and art interventions, and launched her own label, Dust in Grooves. Alongside Chami, she co-runs DIG Curated, a cross-disciplinary platform spotlighting underground sound, visual art, and community-driven projects.

Now based in Berlin, Olivia continues to explore the intersections of activism, art, and sound—smashing the patriarchy, one beat at a time.

I dont often share recordings from my longer club sets but Open Ground is somewhere i instantly felt comfortable and I enjoyed these 6 hours so much that I felt compelled to share them with you.

Hands down, one of the best, if not THE best soundsystem in the world right now! If you ever get the chance to experience it, don’t miss out.

Enjoy!

Lea Occhi - Upclose 2025

Melchiorr & Nepōmuk are two rising artists from Munich’s techno scene who, at just 19 and 20 years old, are already making a name for themselves with their label „Dys Records“.
They are providing a platform for talented artists and create spaces where people can unfold freely and enjoy propper techno & house.
It’s meant to be a space for their distinct musical identity and the intimate, community driven vibe that surrounds it.

Their sound is best described as hypnotic and driving, often laced with psy influenced elements that create a deep, engaging atmosphere. Rather than overwhelming the listener, their sets unfold gradually, characterized by a subtle flow that gives each individual element the space it needs to evolve and resonate.

Hardly anyone can play effortlessly from one genre to the next. The styles in which Marcism feels at home seem almost inexhaustible. In addition to his great musical knowledge, the Zurich native plays his sets with a confidence and naturalness that makes you buy everything he does as a dancer. His strength, however, lies in house and techno - groovy tracks with lively synths that get even the last person on the dance floor to dance.
