Techno

A segment of my 3 hour set that was recorded live during the 2013 Ostgut Ton resident's night at Berghain.

Ben Klock - Berghain 10th Aug 2013

As Figure begins to move into the next chapter of its label history, label founder Len Faki has teamed up with young French talent Roman Poncet for the 54th release. Poncet's debut on the label dropped last year with the excellent 'Cerate' cutting a clear path for his precisely executed modern techno sound. 

Teaming up in the studio, Faki and Poncet have crafted 'Asua' - a mesmerising display of production skill and a testament to the duo's true understanding of hypnosis. Pushing from the start with its urgent bassline the track builds and morphs its intertwining elements, introducing subtle textures and suggestions of melody - a classic Figure late night ritual. 

Alongside, we have original tracks from both Len Faki and Roman themselves. Faki's thunderous and aptly titled 'Stripped' works his powerhouse percussion along with a textured dub-stab in this straight up club trip. 

Finally with 'Truck' Roman Poncet completes the EP, his rough synth stabs and metallic percussion driving this moody tension builder ever forward.

Alcatraz - Giv Me Luv (Nicole Moudaber Remix)

There's no doubt in our collective mind that we're right in the middle of the cold and dark season that is winter. Yep, it’s become exceptionally clear that the holiday period is are over but that doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. No; there's plenty that we can draw from the elements running wild at this time of year. Train yourself to think more in a more positive light, just as Hybrid Recordings boss Cari Lekebusch has done in his latest mix for us. Referencing his homeland's own frozen environment he's put together a selection that injects a tangible yet mystic energy into the fold. It’s also the perfect indicator of what we can expect from his next visit to Farringdon later this month when he joins Terry Francis and Peter Van Hoesen in Room Two.
