Grooverider Organik Sat 25th April 92 Leeds

A Sunday afternoon delight from two of techno's most beloved heavy-hitters arrives exclusively on our Soundcloud.

Berlin techno viking and founder of Dystopian Records Rødhåd and the young, accomplished and Mote-Evolver regular Rene Wise have released their 4 hour set recording from March 2023, a huge B2B session that saw the pair delve in and out of eachother’s company for our last Continuum party. They played an extended set during the final Continuum 24+hour party of the season this Spring. 

The session, which started at 4pm as the tail end of the afternoon drew in and went on til 8pm ahead of a closing set from Ben Klock and Marcel Dettmann, proved to be one of our highlights from the event. It's a real treat to be able to share the full recording; smashers from the get-go that takes us through the hard and heavy, to the atmospheric and energetic.

Lock in below and transport to the incomparable energy of Room 1 on a Sunday afternoon. Sometimes, we reckon, there's no place like it.

009 – Rødhåd B2B Rene Wise – Recorded live from fabric

With a total experience of 50 years in night life, these two local charmers from Utrecht are completive like yin to yang, Han to Chemie or Kirk to Spock. Ultrastation stuns, bedazzles, spaces out and zones in: they are the living proof of the sum of parts. To infinity and beyond.

ROB TISSERA - WPG & HARDCORE UPROAR 25th ANNIVERSARY PARTY

A journey through 35 years of house from the godfather of UK rave. 

In popular mythology, the '90s are without question, the halcyon days of dance music—an era of free raves and unadulterated hedonism. It's a myth that Matthew Nelson, AKA Slipmatt, knows better than most–he was there. 

During the late '80s, as the rave scene in the UK began to boom, Nelson began moonlighting as a DJ. He would land his first residency at Raindance, the East London rave that launched in September 1989 and would become the UK's first legal rave. By 1991 , he'd reach number two in the UK charts with "On A Ragga Tip" as one-half of SL2 and two years later, sell over 10,000 copies of the first pressing of SMD#1.

Nelson has got a lot to share (as you'll see in his interview) so we'll let him do the talking. He's been variously called the godfather of rave and happy hardcore, but what you'll hear on RA.958 is as "a journey through my 35 years of house." A DJ with this much pedigree brings much more than that, of course: touching on the breakbeat, jungle and acid house that soundtracked that golden age, as well as nods to the rich cross-pollination with scenes beyond the UK, from Joey Beltram's "Energy Flash" to Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You."

In 1990 my love for House music truly began. 
At 15 years old and with a similar bunch of reprobates we went to Harrogate’s iconic nightclub… The Mix!!!
The Mix changed my life. 
To this day the Piano House tunes that DJ Tim played are still my favourites. 
When I started my DJ night at Elysian Harrogate  , I always knew I was going to go full circle. 
Which is why….from now on, my residency at Elysian, on the last Saturday of every month will now be called… The Mix. 
If you’re wanting a party starter, finishing a day do or just wanna get down then get yourself to Elysian and join me in The Mix.
Here is a taster of what you expect there.

Welcome To The Mix

1 hour mix with some House , Deep House and Tech House tracks that I'm feeling at the moment and a few odds and sods to boot.
