As we approach the end of the year I wanted to shine a light on one London artist who has already done so much for the scene and it’s community. Please welcome, Theo Komp.

Real name, Theofanis Kosmopoulos has been a leading figure in the London’s Underground scene for almost a Decade now. With his Minimal force party’s allowing artist's based on their talent and not the hype.
A chance to perform, release and be apart of their fantastic community. Theo is someone I would consider myself as a purist and a true lover of the music and it’s scene.

He also manages a pretty impressive career for himself doing what he loves and still does to this day. Whether that be Teaching music production or playing Gigs himself he makes it very clear that that music is his only passion.

On tonight’s episode I find out about Theo’s introduction to Electronic music. What made him consider teaching. And what the real drive is behind his own weekly minimal force showcases.

"While Berlin has dominated the scene in recent years, the London based producer Roberto fuses underground Dutch Techno with deep Detroit over-tones in a style unique to the UK" - Jamie Anderson

Roberto (real name: Rob Kirkaldy) is a London based Techno producer, DJ and Remixer. Considered to be one of the most exciting new UK Techno artists in recent years, he combines influences from Detroit and underground Dutch Techno, to create his own sound unique to the UK.

As a DJ, he brings a special energy to the dancefloor that is the product of many years of dedication to the craft. Never one to let an audience get bored, his sets explore many angles of techno, which has seen him play at some of the most well respected clubs around the world, including fabric in London and both Tresor and Berghain in Berlin. His DJ skills have also made him a popular choice for podcasters, having been called upon to deliver mixes for esteemed shows like the CLR Podcast, Slam Radio and Electric Deluxe.

With an already impressive discography, Roberto has built his production credits with EPs on the likes of Fachwerk, Artform, Be As One and Affin as well as a host of remixes for artists like Jamie Anderson, Roberto Clementi, Myk Derill, Space DJz and TJ Kong & Eric De Man. His own tracks have been remixed by artists such as Steve Rachmad, Mike Dehnert and Samuel L Session.

At the beginning of 2015, Roberto launched his own Fossil Archive label. Predominantly a vinyl label (though releases are also available digitally), the ethos of the imprint is that it must not compromise on the sound. By pressing just one track to each side of vinyl, at 45rpm, Roberto preserves the clarity and sound quality.

As Roberto said in a recent interview with Data Transmission: “I love the fact that you can hold a piece of music in your hands. They are art pieces in their own right. Music is the product of many years of development; much like a fossil that can be buried deep underground for millions of years, until it is discovered. I wanted to ensure the music is of the highest quality, which means not rushing things.”
