VC-118A @ Onyro — 05/10/2024 (Live Performance · “Shinki-Itten” Concept)

A deep sonic journey by VC-118A, recorded live at Onyro on October 5th, 2024, inspired by the Japanese concept shinki-itten , the return to the original spirit, the dissolution of the self into the collective pulse.
This performance moves fluidly through electro’s precision, the spacious depths of dub, and delicate IDM textures, revealing a sound both cerebral and profoundly emotive. 
An introspective yet physical experience that mirrors the timeless atmosphere of his latest release on Delsin Records “Avian”

"From stillness, motion grows. After hours suspended in ambient haze, pulse and movement return - deep, measured, and alive with detail. From layered harmonics to the weight of each kick, the set unfolds like a slow ignition: serious, immersive, and unrelenting in its drive. A live moment at Mostra that reminded everyone where the dancefloor begins."

As a Mostra resident since the first edition, Timnah (@timnah-sommerfeldt) has shown throughout the previous years a great versatility, adapting to any venue and time slot of the festival always brilliantly. After closing Mostra24 in a masterful way, the Swiss artist visited Mostra25 to do a hybrid set with Mario (@mario-7), who also joined Mostra with Varuna (@varuna4053) a couple of years ago in a performance of which we also keep very nice memories.
The hybrid DJ/live set of Timnah and Mario is a match made in heaven, linking top notch selector capabilities to swirling hardware techno aesthetics and flawless execution. Both hailing from Basel, their collab also entangles the two local labels Amenthia Recordings (@amenthia-recordings) and A Walking Contradiction (@awalkingcontradiction). Through their close collaboration with both labels and heaps of collective of studio time, their musical taste and approach have become deeply intertwined, resulting in long build-ups and transcendental sound sculptures.

Mostra (@mostrabcn) is an independent, small-scale festival of avant-garde and experimental electronic music that emerged at the end of 2021 as a counterpoint to the macro-festivals and the overcrowded, commercial, and impersonal offerings of other large events held in Barcelona. Mostra will celebrate its fourth edition from March 12 to 15, 2026.

Don't miss the 5th edition of Mostra!!

Yogg @ GIMIC - 23 October 2025

A dark lonesome journey… deep and hard techno kicks, slow tempo - but no compromise.

Taking you back to a time when the scene was about expression and not narcissism.

You didn’t want people to know your whereabouts. All that mattered was the abandoned rave, your mates, and sometimes strangers. You came home at 7am, changed forever.

Now you find yourself in a world you don’t recognise, where we wave our phones side to side for social media. Well let this track take us back to when it really was a counter-culture.

Dubwise atmospherics flood Guy Brewer's third RA Mix.

Hear the word "Dionysus" and you picture the Greek god of ecstasy: overflowing tables, delirious revelry, chaos. Not the austere soundworld of Guy Brewer, AKA Carrier. On the surface, the UK artist's latest alias feels almost Spartan. But look closer and the Dionysian link starts to show:  it's about shedding fixed forms and identities, to allow something more true, more alive, to form. 

RA.1011 marks Brewer's third entry in the RA Mix series, following editions as drum & bass outfit Commix (RA.269) and, later, the techno alias Shifted (RA.310). "I guess it's an effort to step away from purism," Brewer told <i>Resident Advisor</i> back in 2023. "Right now the thresholds between genres are where you find the most exciting music." 

Carrier's phenomenal debut album, <i>Rhythm Immortal</i>, delivers on that promise. Low-end pressure cloaks like foreboding shadows, punctured only by eerie, otherworldly percussion comparable only to Photek or T++. Listen to the LP in full and it feels like walking through a scene in a true-crime drama: a fog-drenched city street in the deep of night, ambushed by gusts of wind, whispers and strange noises—and it sounds totally, utterly original.

Tracing a line through dub pressure, fractured percussion and narcotic ambience, Brewer explores that same world on RA.1011. As with the album, there's a primal pulse that threads through the recording. Walls of negative space seem to hover before dissolving inexplicably, their tension intact; drums move more like the weather than rhythm. - Bella Aquilina

French duo Atomic Moog return with an organic blend of analog tones and deep ambient flow. Known for releases on Delsin, Lowless, and Monument Records, they shape sound like wild explorers sculpting landscapes of texture and rhythm.

This special ambient vinyl set drifts through misty forests and cosmic valleys, blending mechanical pulse with the quiet rhythm of nature.

@ena-iai is a music producer from and based in Tokyo. He is a major player in the Japanese underground dance music scene for more than a decade. Taking influences from early drum & bass productions, rave sound and abstract hip hop, ENA is recognized for his tight production techniques and massive audio dynamics. Uncompromising, forward thinking and unique, his releases on 7even Recordings, Horo and Latency brought international attention and have led to collaborations with like-minded virtuosos such as Felix K and Rashad Becker which were both invited to perform on the main stage of Berlin Atonal festival (in 2016 and 2017 respectively).  As a DJ, he has been playing regularly in the main clubs in Tokyo such as Unit, Contact, WWW  and Club Asia as well as underground haunts like Forestlimit and Soup for many years. His expert music selection and technical excellence continues to impress the audience in and outside of Japan. Having toured Asia and Europe numerous times and appearing in wide range of prominent international festivals such as Berlin Atonal, rural, Fibre, Mapping and Sun and Bass in the past few years, he is establishing himself as a singular performer fitted to deliver a primetime rave set to a gritty basement fix to abstracted sonic experiments.

Some collaborations feel orchestrated. This one felt inevitable. Reeko and Mostra share a certain DNA - innovative, uncompromising, with an appetite for risk. One’s a festival, the other a force of nature, but both operate outside the usual margins. So when Reeko stepped into the cavernous Pavelló Olímpic on the final day of Mostra 2025, the match didn’t need explaining. After three days of sonic overstimulation, the crowd could’ve easily slipped into post-peak autopilot. Instead, something sparked.

Reeko played with the confidence of someone who doesn’t need to raise his voice to be heard. He didn’t grab attention, instead he tuned the room to his frequency. No spectacle, just sustained pressure. The kind that doesn’t shout, but hums somewhere in your bones. From the first mix, he had total control, not just over tempo, but over tension, perception, direction. It wasn’t peak-time euphoria. It was something colder, sharper, more elemental.

What happened on that floor wasn’t mystical, and it wasn’t romantic. It was human circuitry, bodies moving like they’d been rewired. A dance floor fully switched on. In a festival stacked with standout sets, this one kept floating to the surface in post-Mostra conversations. We’re proud to share this recording. It was special. Now it’s permanent.
