October 14th saw the beginning of Bassiani’s new party series ‘Curated by Resident’, with in-house selector Kancheli taking charge of booking and Anthony Rother jumping in as headline pick behind the decks. Rother is a German institution whose ghost in the machine vocoder-vocals and dark electro formulations dominated an era in club history and left an indelible mark on many who followed. For a few years, he took a break and let his past productions simmer, full concentration on hybrid sets and heading back to his Offenbach studio to turn whatever energy clubnights gave him into tracks. Back to releasing and touring the globe, he payed Tbilisi a visit this year. Bassiani Podcast 150 is a live recording straight from the Bassiani floor, a two hour mix of bionic bleeps and hair-raising basslines, Rother’s unmistakable fusion of man and machine is very much back with a vengeance.

Bassiani invites Anthony Rother / Podcast #150

Welcome to DJ Lily aka Lilieskalla (Gothenburg, Sweden) founder of Lilies and BROR Records. @xodjlily 

▶︎ What motivates you to compose on hardware?
Working with hardware is amazing! If you listen to many of the productions of the 90s and 80s, there is no perfect programming or automating in the same sense that a modern computer can do. The machines are played as instruments and then they are recorded - what’s done is done. You use your hands to craft the sound, like Jeff Mills active and live approach to the 909, that’s what I mean

I attached that notion to what I do today - which also enabled me to create and motivate very minimalistic productions. Not minimalistic in the sense of clean soundscapes, but in the amount of sounding instruments that are going on throughout the sequences all crafted from scratch. I record on two to three mono channels and I grown to love the method of stepping right into the emotion of the track. To hear the soul of the sequence the very second you play it. In the midst of affairs so to speak.

The biggest inspiration from the early days of techno thus lies in how the different sounds move together, what two hands can do in the moment. I’m not m afraid of making things obscure or monotone - that is part of the process. About three years ago I discarded everything I made with my computer and started this journey by wanting to make new sounds with mostly the same equipment every day. It took a great deal of practice but it is has been very rewarding. I think everyone should try it at least!

▶︎ And what’s your set up as a DJ ?
When I started to DJ I had two CD players (CDJ 800 Mk2), which I bought just a couple of months after I turned 18. Shortly after I got my Technics 1200 really cheap and have been moving between vinyl and digital since. At the moment I play digitally, although I’m an avid vinyl collector and make sure to really use the records from the 90s in my repertoire. I play on three players to be able to continuously cue one track ahead.

▶︎ What inspires you most about the 90s?
The idea of techno growing as the music of the future! Although not only the music, but also the ideas of Juan Atkins, Underground Resistance, and Drexciya. All the interpretations of the music and the incredible communities and influences that grew out of the era. What’s not to love!

When the future was envisioned at the time when techno was being invented, the idea was probably different from what it might be when thought of today. I guess it’s possible to apply the idea of us being at the end of that future or in the beginning of the next future. Wherever we’re at now, we’re all headed into either something fantastic or something tragic, haha. But as far as techno is concerned, I myself really want to stick to associating it as a forward thinking genre. I feel that it’s also suited for me to soundtrack the urban decay we have through our current structures in society. Maybe a bit like Detroits economic decline back then - I cannot know!

▶︎ Do you think the techno tracks from 30 years ago are still relevant today?
They are the most relevant bar none if you ask me. If you don’t look back on how techno started in Detroit, it will be hard to motivate modern interpretations of it today. If it wasn’t for inventors like Juan Atkins, Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson we wouldn’t be where we are with this genre. They deserve respect, as well as the waves of techno that later came after them. The way techno was made 30+ years is an archetype.

▶︎ Thank you for this podcast and your words !

Vault Sessions #220 - Decoder

Next up in the Bassiani series comes British talent Andy Luff. With London’s growing commercialisation and NIMBY-style aversion to creative pursuits, it’s a mark of great mettle to have carved out a flourishing space on its turf, but Andy and his crew has exactly succeeded in doing this. Their bootleg and off-the-cuff raves began as a guestlist only set up, bringing together friends and their friends for events where the DJs and quality soundsystems took centre stage. And it all seems to have struck the right chord: growing slowly but steadily, with Andy now living in Amsterdam, he has taken picnics signature sound to the Dutch capital where the events are flourishing, now in its second decade and with a long-standing collaboration with London superclub Fabric and Amsterdams uniquely intimate Bret, their format is something much needed in keeping the European hotspots raving into the coming years. Picnic is still much focused on throwing some of the best parties in town, and now putting out records under their homonymous label. The imprint and Andy’s benchmark, an ice-cool mix of progressive house, electro and trance, perky beats with a confident bent, unpretentious sounds for a fun night’s dancing. Sometimes it’s really that simple. On the 7th of March, Andy brought a taste of his sound to Tbilisi with a banger set at Horoom and this one’s a live recording from the night. Andy fuses retro synthwork and wobbly percussions to fun effect. Misty-eyed melodies and infectious bass lines from this eclectic supplier of good times out are ever present in this recording. A scintillating first appearance and hopefully the first of many.

My Own Shadow: Approaching

Timefold

Anna creates a sound that bridges body and space. Her sets move with the pulse of techno and house, layered with dub textures, creating a sonic experience that is grounded, deliberate, and open to breath. Years in club culture, combined with her background in yoga practice and teaching, have shaped a sonic identity that is intentional and rooted. In 2025, she co-founded PURE SPACE in Cologne, a yoga and sound studio where movement and sound align on the same frequency.

„This mix brings together the sounds that move me - electronic music with layered textures and steady rhythms, exploring moods from house to techno, touched by dub influences throughout.“
Recorded at home on a Xone 62 and two CDJ 900s.
Made for everyday moments.

Octave One - New Life -SNIPPET

Techno is a family affair.

Arriving onto the electronic scene with "I Believe", featured on the monumental (10 Records) compilation "Techno 2: The Next Generation" (alongside Carl Craig, Marc Kinchen, and Jay Denham) in 1990, Octave One is the brainchild of the phenomenal native sons of Detroit, MI (USA), the Burden Brothers. The core unit of the band, made up of Lenny and Lawrence Burden (with revolving members of Lynell, Lorne, and Lance Burden), have had the privilege of bringing their high energy live shows to many parts of the world, including Australia, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, UK, and the USA, among many other places.

The brothers have released groundbreaking dance anthems on their own Detroit based record label, 430 West Records. Including DJ Rolando's "Jaguar", Random Noise Generation's "Falling in Dub" (the other Burden brother moniker), Aux 88's "My A.U.X. Mind" (on the 430 West sister label Direct Beat), as well as their own Octave One recordings: "Empower", "Nicolette", 'The X-files", "Meridian", “Love and Hate”, “The Greater Good”, and 'Siege". They have remixed tracks for such artists as Massive Attack, Akabu (Joey Negro), DJ Rolando (Jaguar), Steve Bug, John Thomas, Aril Brikha, Vince Watson, The Trampps, Rhythm is Rhythm, and Inner City.
