Hailing from the industrial hub of Osijek, Croatia and with 20 years of experience in the DJ booth, this installment of the podcast series is provided by Insolate, a true veteran of the croatian techno scene. It would seem unlikely that someone living so far off from the techno capitals of Europe could end up performing in the most renowned clubs the continent has to offer. Yet Insolate did just this, playing in venues like Berghain, Rex, Under Club and at many major festivals, as well as releasing her own tracks on esteemed labels such as Deeply Rooted, Singular and Modularz. Despite her success, Insolate always stayed true to her heritage and kept supporting the local scene that once supported her. Together with Volster, with whom she also founded the label Out of Place, Insolate started the TRAUM event series in her hometown of Osijek, further helping to nurture local talent. Her efforts were recognized in 2017, when she was awarded the title of "Croatia's ambassador overseas". The reason for her success lies in her uncompromising passion for the genre, which can be heard in every one of her sets. Enjoy this groovy and powerful journey!

Hailing from Portsmouth, UK, Rich Jones alias Operator champions a techno sound that, although purist-compatible, doesn’t cut itself from the wide array of sounds that’s fed the genre for over 30 something years of its existence. This week’s mix from the British jockey and producer, who's amassed a string of reputable sorties on the likes of MORD, Blue Hour, CLR, Soma and his own imprint, Gnosis, gets us vibing to a cross-curricular two hours of funk-charged salvos, high-powered 909 moves and further Detroit house-y divagations that make the most out of each bar to send shivers down your spine. A bastardised hodgepodge of unfalteringly quality grooves to mind and body-trip to.

Techno (Reel Tech)

Novembers podcast is an extended 2,5-hour techno odyssey, brought to you by the German DJ and producer: Henning Baer (@henningbaerberlin).

As the resident DJ of Grounded Theory (@grounded-theory-berlin), one of its founders, curator of its celebrated agency and events, and a DJ of worldwide renown for ability and tastes, Henning Baer forged his enviable résumé with his own hands.

Since its beginning in 2009, Grounded Theory has grown from a bracing new idea in Berlin techno to an institution of artistic nightlife both at its home and around the continent. Directed with acute vision and unerring judgment, its philosophy extracted from Henning’s long years at the front lines of electronic music, it remains diverse and cutting edge. Mirroring Henning Baer's DJ sets, Grounded Theory combines music from different eras and areas, remaining rooted in techno while shedding light on sounds less frequently heard on Berlin dance floors: forward UK music, experimental electronics, and underground techno names from across the globe, both new and established.   

Following on years of closely-synchronized work with fellow resident Milton Bradley (@do-not-resist-the-beat), Henning Baer is now asserting greater independence with innovative new production styles on a recent EP for Taanstaafl Planets. The launch of his own MANHIGH imprint (@manhighrecordings) buttresses the foundation of his own work, to be built up alongside a select few whose productions meet the curatorial acumen of one of techno’s finest ears. After esteemed releases on Sonic Groove (@sonic-groove-records), K209 (@k209) and elsewhere, fans worldwide have much to look forward to from a label whose standards match those of Grounded Theory. 

Already a respected artist, Henning’s diligence has transported him from the counter to the shelves of Hardwax and from the floor to the booth of Berghain (@berghain) in regular appearances. Now he is building further upon these impressive accomplishments, profoundly shaping contemporary techno from recent memory into the foreseeable future.

A key player of Amsterdam's leading-edge techno scene, the fast and steady rise of LET mastermind JP Enfant sure didn't come as a surprise for anyone who's got to see him perform at Trouw, back a few years ago. Having forged and expanded his own inimitable style as a DJ and producer, rocking all types and sizes of stages, from Berghain to Awakenings, via Bassiani, Melt, Concrete and obviously the mighty De School where he holds a residency, JP drops by for a masterclass in deep-diving 4x4 scorch, emotional rollercoasting and feels-filled, whack-em-all floor traction. Let the vibes pour.
