Based in NYC, and with a background as a DJ, writer, and event organizer, Lychee's (@lycheefrut) underground energy is evident in every set they craft. With regular appearances at Basement, Nowadays, and Bossa Nova Civic Club, Lychee also runs Spontaneous Affinity, a monthly mix and interview series and occasional event platform, and the label Unimatrix Zero, as well as serving on the board for the Aslice Foundation.

Drawing inspiration from recent musical explorations at Nowadays in NYC in particular, Lychee's Patterns of Perception 116 showcases a return to their musical foundations in hypnotic, dubby, wormholey techno. Embracing a more focused, classic feel than many of their recent dancefloor explorations, this mix infuses a sense of narrative and evolution, effortlessly blending darkness and light, corporeality and sentimentality.

Good friend and constant source of inspiration Alex Albrecht, joined me to celebrate my 300th episode of Passing Notes.

Few artists channel a consistent stream of creativity like Alex Albrecht. With over a decade of music-making under his belt, Alex has cultivated a distinct and frankly iconic musical identity. Effortlessly shapeshifting between experimental jazz, ambient, atmospheric house, and deep techno, Alex’s compositions are marked by an environmental undertone that imbues them with a uniquely “Alex Albrecht” earthly sense of place. Simultaneously anchoring and weightless, the common thread between it all is Alex’s ability to leave listeners safely ensconced in a swell of emotional resonance.

Improvisation and exploration are at the heart of Albrecht’s craft. His constantly evolving and captivating live performances have taken him to far corners of the globe, with appearances at iconic venues like Bassiani in Georgia, Monument in Norway, and Vent in Tokyo just to name a few. Each journey fuels his exploratory nature, offering new opportunities to immerse himself in the world around him. Field recordings serve as an auditory journal—postcards sent home to evoke memories of space and place that form the ever-important foundation of his creative process. These recordings provide a naturalistic canvas upon which Alex layers syncopated rhythmic subtleties and soaring, colorful synthetic brushstrokes.

With a rich discography amassing on celebrated labels such as A Strangely Isolated Place, Constellation Tatsu, Apollo, Scissor & Thread, and his own Analogue Attic Recordings—also celebrating its 10th anniversary this year—Albrecht’s work reflects a steadfast commitment to artistic authenticity and a depth of accrued knowledge now expressed through a craft so refined that oft feels effortless.

It was an honour to have Alex performing LIVE in the studio to celebrate this milestone together and share in his music that will continue to inspire us all.

81번째 벌트 팟캐스트는 스위스 출신의 DJ이자 주목받는 프로듀서 Ben Kaczor의 67분 디제이 세트와 함께 합니다. 

벤 카조르는 테크노, 딥 하우스, 덥 테크노 로부터 받은 영향을 미니멀하고 직설적이며 솔직한 미학으로 혼합하여 넓은 감정적 스펙트럼을 가진 독특한 사운드로 표현한다. 그의 음악은 음울하고 단조로운 분위기, 멜랑콜리한 분위기가 균형을 이루며 다양한 환경에서 깊은 내면의 연결을 만들어낸다. 스위스 출신의 DJ이자 프로듀서, 큐레이터인 그는 2023년 Dial Records에 합류하였고, 이후 딥 하우스, 덥 테크노, 그리고 다원 예술을 전문으로 하는 레이블 St. Odes를 공동 설립했다. 카조르는 자신이 진행하는 모든 프로젝트에 걸쳐 '해체된 것이 아니라 느껴지는 것을 창조하는 것’이라는 핵심 가치를 일관되게 적용하고 있다.

Mike Servito's closing set from 10:30am until noon at No Way Back, May 25, 2025, Day 2 of Return to the Source at Tangent, Detroit. 

"Mike Servito is an artist intertwined with his Detroit origins. No matter how far he travels and how long he lives elsewhere, the essential imprint of this city remains in everything he does.

If you asked where this mix was recorded, I would say "Detroit" without hesitation and if I thought about it for a bit, I would guess that it was most likely one of Mike's legendary closing sets at No Way Back at Tangent Gallery. The level of care and reverence that go into these sets is very evident in this mix from start to finish. The track selection moves effortlessly from past to future playing with darkness and light, depth and joy, tension and release. It's a remarkable demonstration of taste and skill but also a paean to Mike's personal artistic history that calls to the creative power center that Detroit comprises. This mix provides a true glimpse into Mike's long-term dedication to the art of working in tandem with the dancefloor, creating a shared journey where the challenge is to let go and just trust the DJ."

LF58 is the collaborative consciousness of techno maestro Neel and sonic explorer Filippo Scorcucchi. Initially beginning the project with a blissful release on Auxiliary, the duo has since gone on to release three legendary albums on Astral Industries. The modular synth masters are revered for their ability to sculpt sound into expansive, architectural forms, building entire worlds from celestial drones and intricate textures.

This mix is music for the deep cosmos of the mind; an ambient transmission designed to dissolve time and space. Patient and deep, the set serves as a soundtrack for drifting through the quiet solitude of space, floating in a sonic vessel built by two masters of atmosphere.

A mix of techno and Faith.

Taken from the verse of Revelation 1:8 I added a rhythm that makes you dance.

Fully self-produced song. 

Thank you for listening, likes and following. 

If you would like something in particular, if you like to suggest something to me or if you want to criticize me, do it but with due manners, I like to listen to the beauty and ugliness of what I do. 

thanks. 

Alfa e Omega

🔥🔥🔥
[PIRANHA SIBERIA DUB] is pleased to present its 87th release: Anchoret (@anchoret) – Winter Cigarette EP.

The first release of this winter, where the cold of Pittsburgh turns into sonic vapor. In winter the city resembles a giant ashtray of concrete and steam. Here the winter cigarette burns not with tobacco, but with noise, rhythm, and deep reflections — as if the city exhales music through steel bridges and snowy winds.

Original works:
::: Winter Cigarette — Anchoret lights the first track, smoldering with a cold dub pulse that slowly spreads across riverbanks, bridges, and old rail lines. Every hit falls like snow; every click sparks like frost in the air.
::: Whatever — an inner detachment, nearly chaotic yet surprisingly focused. Anchoret exhales doubts through a steady, linear beat while the delay gathers fragments of thought into a single spiral.
::: Curious — a midnight rave inside an introvert’s mind: curiosity instead of aggression, bass instead of voice, space instead of answers.
::: Alabaster — like a lantern’s glow reflected in snow: white, yet filled with countless shades hiding the city’s old industrial tales.

Then the interpreters step in, each offering a new way to hold the cold with bare fingers:
::: Francesco Tamburrano (@ft-dubtechno) bends Curious into a hypnotic whirl, shifting the trajectory of its rising smoke.
::: Oldschool_Dubtechno .Producer (@enercube & @x_fr) transforms Alabaster into a Frosted Redub — frost over reverb, each echo denser than winter ice.
::: Daverage J. Normal (@thedaverage) lifts Winter Cigarette onto the rooftops of a concrete world, giving every beat a sharper urban pulse.
::: Radio Badjay (@radiobadjay) rebuilds Whatever into a full radio transmission — as if the track bursts into late-night airwaves from afar.
::: Aritomi (@aritomi) reimagines Curious as a whisper inside a late-night metro train, where footsteps and bass fall in perfect sync.
::: Juan Moreno (@juanmorenomusica), in his Clear & Warm Remix, melts Alabaster from within: the snow under his hands does not dissolve — it begins to glow, softly, deeply, endlessly.

Winter Cigarette EP is like a trail of vapor in the frost: it vanishes, yet remains in memory. A sound that links Pittsburgh and Siberia with an invisible line of cold and rhythm. This release is a never-freezing smoke break for those who hear music in factory pipes, cracking ice, and the old whistle of the techno scene. Winter doesn’t ask if You’re ready. Winter Cigarette is already glowing somewhere between Pittsburgh and Novosibirsk — just breathe in deeper.


Yours in sound and spirit,
The [PIRANHA SIBERIA DUB] Crew.
