VLKN's sound incorporates warm, beautiful melodies, groovy basslines, and more than a touch of class. He seeks to touch the hearts and minds of dancers with improvisations based on their set, setting and atmosphere. Be on the look out for his future releases as they are packed with grooves and uplifting sounds, designed for the dancefloor and more.

On his podcasts on Soundcloud you can see that VLKN is a storyteller, but the story is in the form of music. You can feel the book changing pages and the bpm getting on the dance floor. There is a happing ending and all that, so the desire to hear her playing more and more is absolute.

Nativis Podcast ⦿ VLKN

To all my SoundCloud listeners, there's no better place for me to post this...
I wrote this yesterday, right after recording this mix. Without getting overly sentimental, I feel like I’m at a bit of a crossroads when it comes to techno. Of course, music is constantly evolving and shaped by influences—that's always been the case. But something’s been standing out to me. It started last summer, but with Anyma’s recent performances at The Sphere in Las Vegas, it all came together in a kind of fever dream.

The entire melodic techno genre is heading in a direction that no longer resonates with me. The label that once delivered deep, hypnotic productions—Afterlife (who doesn’t remember the upside-down figure floating above the dancefloor?)—is now putting out tracks with trancey vocals. That underground feeling? Completely gone. And those Anyma concerts feel like the peak of that shift. A visual spectacle, a playground for influencers, but let’s be real—this has nothing to do with the immersive club nights we love. Anyma at The Sphere, with Tiësto and Sebastian Ingrosso as supporting acts. Tiësto playing in the jungles of Tulum or recently at Club Space Miami, doing his own take on melodic techno... Yeah, I think I’m pretty much done with it.

Of course, everyone has their own taste and their own vibe, that's all good. And good luck with that, but I just had to get this off my chest. And where better than with my SoundCloud listeners? :)

But with moments like this, you start looking at other movements, and that’s where things get interesting. One thing I am excited about is the rise of Afro House over the past two years. Don’t get me wrong, not everything in that space is gold. But the freshness, the groove, the build-ups, the danceability—it’s bringing back something that was getting lost.
I still feel a bit torn, and you can hear that in my latest mix. I start off in the Afro House realm but with a melodic techno edge—deep, hypnotic melodies, not too many drums, that sweet spot between melodic techno and Afro House, with tracks from Andhim, Super Flu, Emanuel Satie, and Forrest. Around the halfway point, there’s a subtle shift into melodic techno—not with trancey vocals, but with hypnotic depth, like Gravity by Axel Niggemann in a rework. A classic from 2015, back when melodic techno was still in its beginning. Then, transitioning into a remix by the legendary Steve Bug, I close the mix with another classic—a track from Dutch techno icon Steve Rachmad, under his Ignacio alias. Originally released in 2001, reworked by Rachmad himself in 2010 as Virton Upgraded.

Can melodic techno please find its way back to this please?

That’s the thing—techno evolves, and that’s a good thing. It brings energy, opens up new paths, and that’s why I’ve loved it for so long. I hope you enjoy the mix, and maybe you’ll hear what I’m trying to express here.

And if you’ve got thoughts on all this… send me a DM or leave a comment in my mix!

Greets,
David (Mindbox)

GIT (Gefangen Intrance) Podcast Session steht für !!!

Ein Zustand der Extase überlebt mehrere Tage.

Unser Klang ist immer angemessen - um den Alltag zu vergessen.
INTRANCE bist du GEFANGEN - wenn unstillbar dein Verlangen...
..nach neuer Liebe zur Musik - vielleicht im nächsten Lied...?

GIT Podcast Session 113 # Karl Potreck Into The Mix

Bio:

Jahrelang hat Karl selbst zu treibendem Techno getanzt – bis er sich
entschied, die Perspektive zu wechseln und hinter das DJ-Pult zu
treten. Seitdem geht es für ihn steil bergauf! 2024 legte er sein erstes
Set für den schweizweit bekannten Podcast Aka-Tapes auf – und
direkt danach holte ihn Label Gründer Tony mit ins Team. Zusammen
kuratieren sie nun die mittlerweile weit über 300 Folgen umfassende
Sammlung elektronischer Musik mit grossem Erfolg. Mit weiteren
Podcast Veröffentlichungen auf Obenmusik, Gefangen Intrance,
Klangheimlich auf Lok und Auftritten in der ganzen Deutschschweiz,
hat Karl rasch seinen Platz in der Szene gefunden. Karl beschreibt sich
selbst als laut und lustig und so sind es auch seine Gigs. Diese
bestreitet er entweder als Solokünstler oder als Gründer seines
Labels Basskompass mit anderen DJ-Freund*innen zusammen. Sollte
er in eurer Nähe spielen, lasst euch seine verspielten, energetischen
und stimmungsvollen Gigs nicht entgehen!
