Call for Summer 🌻 #2

We have arrived our #45th episode of our Schimmer Podcast series.

For this episode we’ve invited belonged Label Friend and shockwerk resident DJ Floppy Disk to record a mix for us. Dipping into deep progressive spheres, he journeys us into an elevation of lively groovers. Evolving beneath a field of tension between records from
the 90s into the 2020s - One hour vinyl power!

Bio:
Shockwerk crew member, Stuttgart resident at the infamous Studio Amore and Munich resident of the underground club LEGAL. His sound has always been rooted in house and electronic elements, but with progressive styles, he is pointing towards rave and techno to have a party full of emotions. Dipping into deep sounds elaborates his sets into a di- versified experience. Between records from the 90s and early 2000s, you will find DJ Floppy Disk bringing energy to the dancefloor and from inside the booth.

[B2] Dold - Borderline (Original Mix)

ELEVATE INVITES 004: KEN-MING

Ken-Ming, also known as Daniël is an artist with roots in both the Amsterdam and Hong Kong scene. This artist delves deep in to niche electronic sounds, while staying true to techno. Effortlessly shifting between styles like electro, breakbeat and drum & bass. His sound is energetic, dynamic and constantly evolving; a musical journey filled with unexpected twists.

Ken-Ming’s love for music began with a diverse musical upbringing, exposing him to a wide range of music from a young age. This versatility is reflected in his sets. No predictable build-ups, just an organic flow where everything comes together and every track tells a new story.

ELEVATE INVITES 004: KEN-MING

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on why I chose electronic music—especially coming from a background in flamenco guitar. For a while, I kept asking myself, What exactly is techno? But I’ve come to see that this question leads away from the truth rather than toward it. Now I ask something simpler, more personal: Why am I drawn to this sound? Each track gives me small, wordless answers—fragments of what I’ve been feeling, seeing, thinking. It’s not about genre or how it might sound to others. It’s about translating lived experience into sound—unfiltered, emotional, and real, in a way that captures the emotional imprint of my recent life, moment by moment. Freedom has always been precious to me. I feel most free in the mountains—especially standing before the twin peaks of Ushba. That mountain means something very real to me. It took the life of my friend this year—a true Svan, a pure Georgian soul. I’ve never met anyone like him.The best Mountaineer, freerider and skier, a man of extraordinary dignity, someone who would open his home to anyone. He was one in a billion. This mix is more than music to me. It’s not a project or a product—it’s everything. A personal imprint of all I’ve been processing: grief, awe, beauty, and a longing for something beyond words. In that way, it’s not something I made. It’s something that revealed itself.

SEVEN Mix 045 - ALKARLINE

An exercise in the art of restraint, @carmenelectr0 cited a desire to expand beyond her club persona into a more delicate world she has mostly only appreciated in private. A longtime fan of Ricardo Villalobos, Mr. G, and other pioneers of dubby minimalism, she recorded this mix entirely on vinyl, drawing from more secluded corners of her collection to share tracks that have rarely made it into her sets. Though still recognisably sentimental at its core, she stated an intention to present house and techno cuts that meander through more subtle shades of emotion, whilst hinting at a new direction for upcoming creative projects.

Deep, hypnotic and nostalgic, Carmen channels the gentler B-sides and ambient undercurrents that have shaped her off-duty listening away from the booth. From the "don't think, just listen" spirit of Markus Suckut and the humidity of Roman Poncet to nthng’s near-spiritual finale, the mix is glossy, tactile, and surreal: sixty minutes adjusted to cruise control along the softer edges of her universe.

EXP-CV01 - Pascal Hetzel - A1 - Theraphosa (preview)

Pascal Hetzel has been a steady presence in Berlin's large electronic music community. He emerged with a strong focus on long, free-flowing hardware jam sessions that traverse the whole spectrum of electronic dance music, from dark, industrial-tinged techno to classic Motor City electro and Italo disco-appreciating euphoria. In addition to his work as one half of CYRK, Pascal Hetzel continues to make a name for himself as a solo artist. His sound is
deeply influenced by Detroit techno's rich legacy. His first release on Juan Atkins' groundbreaking Metroplex label,
which came out in June 2025, marks another milestone in his career. It's his first solo release since his EP on
another Detroit-based label: Interdimensional Transmissions' sub-label Eye Teeth, and his solo album on
the Belgian label Arkham Audio. Early next year, he will also release an EP on Marco Bailey's label Materia, further expanding his footprint in the global techno landscape. Rest assured, there is more to come — both with CYRK
and as a solo artist.
