Stuttering Spirit

The tunnel is a magical stage and im very grateful to have been asked to play the Saturday late afternoon set, before one of my biggest electronic-music inspirations, voices from the lake. I took the opportunity, considering the impeccable programming, open minded crowd, and perfect soundsystem to play a more slow building, delicate festival set - which felt very true to my real taste, and an homage to many of my deepest and longest standing inspirations. Thank you so much to the entire Draaimolen team for the trust.. and for the other worldly reality you have created in this very special festival. - Kia

Melt w/ Joe PG: 8th September '25

“i wanted to create something with a sense of anticipation, rising out of the deep building the listener up into a sense of relief as more functional and 4/4 forward takes heed like warming up a dancefloor. with so many influences i feel like my ideas can feel convoluted when planning and recording a mix but this i really took my time to move through different styles whilst them all being connected by a deep & trippy style which gels the mix together.” 

a heads down session from london-based dj, producer and label owner dyslecta who delivers this week’s 909 mix. a mix filled with tension, swirling rhythms and wonked-out drum patterns - it’s a masterclass in building pace and letting the restraint lock you in before the heaviness is unleashed. 

from the rolling fields of east yorkshire to the thrum of london’s dancefloors, dyslecta’s story is stitched together by tapes, family lore, and a deep, instinctive relationship with sound. raised on a steady diet of hardcore, techno, and trance blasting from his parents’ rave collections, his earliest encounters with electronic music were less about clubs or community than about atmosphere. his productions and mixes channel that same sense of place and texture: raw, shape-shifting worlds built from fragments of loops, hardware experiments, and a visual imagination that maps sound to colour, rhythm to landscape. with his label tenuous links, launched earlier this year, dyslecta continues to expand on this vision, with an aim to champion artists who thrive on curiosity and experimentation. 

in the interview below dyslecta talks about the constant learning and experimentation of being an artist, how growing up in yorkshire influenced his sound, and the process behind his productions - from starting with a sound to creating an atmosphere or world with it and being able to visual and feel the track he’s working on.

⋆˚࿔ untitled 909 podcast 235: dyslecta ⋆˚࿔

Following his debut EP Foreign Exchange, Somatic Rituals co-founder returns to the label with Clepto Loop: a track shaped for high-energy club settings. Driven by hypnotic, hard-hitting kicks and sizzling, textured sound design, the track leans into a raw, functional aesthetic. Repetitive vocal fragments loop throughout, creating a sense of tension and propulsion that blurs the line between Techno and Bass. A pure DJ tool with personality — Somatic Rituals re-ups the energy with this stripped-back, bass-weighted belter.

All proceeds from this release will be donated directly to support the Abu Zereiq family in Gaza.

Kombé - Clepto Loop

Universal and electric, flowing with liquid and environmental sounds. Latin rhythms collide with broken fragments, building a crescendo of sensuality and velocity. Intriguing vocals ride over rolling grooves, acid tones, and techno kicks, creating irresistible bursts of energy.

Kia’s meditative cosmic aura meets Bitter Babe’s rhythmic fire in a tribal, sassy mix that moves, pulses, and evolves. Layered textures, ancestral grooves, and veteran bass carry the set through ravishing hours of sound.

PORTER BROOK 9.9.25

Emily Jeanne - Past Through Desire - QYN002

A meditative yet primal dubstep record that's deeply organic and textural in its soundscape ~ a signature style of Tokyo duo Herbalistek. 

Making some of the most future-facing bass music right now, Herbalistek lands on Rennes label Ethos Records with an EP that attempts to channel "the unseen force that guides movement which is the instinctual pull toward something greater." Each track embodies a different form of movement, echoing organic patterns in nature and the fluid progression of life.
