INTERVIEW
Was there a specific track, night, or experience that sparked your interest in electronic music or techno?

A moment that truly shifted my perspective was the first time I stepped into this small club in my city. It was intimate, niche, carefully curated. Up until then, I had been used to much larger, more mainstream venues. But this place was different, was dark, raw, with a wall of Funktion-Ones pushing out this bleepy, hypnotic techno. That night, I realized what I was really after, where my ambition was pointing.
If I had to name one track that first sparked that feeling, and still in some ways embodies the vision I’ve held onto ever since, it would be Exium - Subshell (Pfirter Remix). It has everything: tension, groove, and that spatial depth that made me fall in love with techno.

In what way did your move from Italy to Amsterdam influence your musical journey? What motivated that change at the time?

Absolutely. The decision to move was entirely driven by music. That was, and still is, my main focus. I’ve always dreamed big, and I couldn’t accept giving up this passion just because I wasn’t in the right place - or living with that “what if” in my head.
Then, as often happens, other signs and circumstances made things even clearer.
Once I got here, the environment played a big role. It pushed me. I arrived alone, with no connections, but being surrounded by certain energies constantly motivates you to do more, evolve, and learn something every day. Above all, this is where I truly learned what it means to persevere - no matter what.

Are there specific moods or energies you intentionally try to capture when producing – and if so, how do those emotions shape your workflow or your studio setup?

Maybe I’m a bit particular, but when I produce, I try to leave my moods outside. I overthink a lot, and making music helps me shut the world off and tune into myself.
When I hit that flow and things move on their own, that’s when it works. 
The hardest part isn’t usually the technical side, but quieting the mind and finding full focus. The energy in a track reflects me in the most honest way. When everything clicks - when I find a natural, simple workflow that still tells a story - that’s when I feel truly satisfied.

P r e m i e r e: EL MAMU - Nocturne No.2 (Original Mix) [SNPS011]

Manuel Valle (AKA Endplate) was born in Malaga in the mid-eighties. He first came into contact with electronic music at age thirteen. However, it would be in Granada - his home during his university years - where he discovered and fell in love with techno. He has always felt a fascination for the darker side of the genre. This shows in his work, as straightforward mental sounds envelope you. His pounding bass lines and percussive synth sequences, as the dance floor consistently remains his focus, will not fail to have an impact on the listener. Endplate's music is always in constant evolution as proved in the work he has already produced for AINE, Warm Up, Faut section, Olympian or Children Of Tomorrow.

Schimmer Podcast #062 with Franz Jäger

Hello hello,

I've long wanted to create mixes that ground, soothe, and open new perspectives through music.

I regularly listen to ambient, IDM, and other contemplative sounds to rest and refresh my mind when I'm not mixing or producing techno or spending time in clubs.

I finally made time to assemble the first installment of this tranquil journey. It features some of my current favorite ambient pieces, woven into a cohesive musical collage intended for attentive background listening, meditation, or simple calm.

I hope you find it as rewarding as a typical dance set. Perhaps even more. Tell me what you think, and let me know in the comments if you need any track IDs.

Wishing you a restorative Sunday and the courage to love yourself and others in this challenging world.

Gannein - Ambient Series - 001

Currently celebrating 20 years of exploits and shenanigans, Enemy Records is back with a 4-track various artists EP featuring label-owner Dustin Zahn, Viels, Slone, and K.U.S.S. “IMMOLATION” exists as the spiritual successor of Enemy’s previous 4-track V.A., “BREAK A FANCY VASE.” The result is four infectious club tracks designed for optimal damage.

Zahn starts oﬀ with “Surrender the Body,” a deep narrative-focused roller designed especially for late night party people dealing with a lot of internal dialogue going on. If the meditative vocals are too much, he also supplies an alternative instrumental version, like any proper vocal
club track should have!

Slone’s “Throttled” is a heads down minimalistic roller expertly filled with tension. These moments of tension break with in-your-face synth work sprinkled in at just the right moments, leading to massive responses on the dance floor.

Parisian producer KUSS finally makes his label debut with “Encounter,” a polyrhythmic percussive workout that functions as a perfect tool for working DJs. The track features the perfect balance of sci-fi elements and club functionality.

Viels finishes oﬀ the EP with “Nessun Battito.” Viels combines dreamy call-and-response hooks with steady yet crafty 909 workouts to build a perfect introspective-leaning vibe that still works great at peak time.
