We don’t often invite people to run the FACT Mix gauntlet more than once – but if anyone gets to bend the rules, it’s Klock.

The Berlin titan last graced these parts back in 2009, filing a muscular FACT Mix entirely in keeping with his reputation as Berghain’s bosher-in-chief. The last five years have seen him consolidate his reputation as a standard bearer of refined, take-no-prisoners techno; his eight-hour-plus sets continue to shake Berghain’s foundations, and, although his output has slowed substantially, he’s still found time to knock out the occasional release on Ostgut Ton. His Klockworks label continues to tick along, too - new releases from fellow FACT mixer Trevino and Etapp Kyle are imminent, plus, if a forthcoming stint of “studio time” comes good, potentially more new music from Klock himself.

Those expecting pulverising 4×4 might be surprised by Klock’s sophomore FACT mix – a “deeper, dreamy” collection, bookended by two vintage ambient tracks and shot through with wonder. Unreleased Klockworks material features, as do cuts from the likes of Function, Ben Sims, Surgeon, Orgue Electronique and Lucy. The mix is a studio-recorded affair – something Klock sees as a very different kettle of fish to playing out: “Club mixes are obviously more spontaneous and capture the vibe of a specific night, while working in the studio offers other possibilities like re-editing tracks and layering tunes more precisely, which I’ve done a lot of that here.” Set your watches…

FACT Mix 470 – Ben Klock (Nov '14)

Timoti Fain "T.Fain" is a Kiev electronic producer and DJ. He began the musical career exactly ten years ago in the south of Ukraine, in Ilyichevsk city. In 2011 T.Fain started writing his own music, and two years later, in 2013 he presented "Sigma EP", which was released at Leone Music label. Since then he gained attention and respect from DJ's and producers alike. This release is a serious groover for any dance floor. For the remix we have brought in another new name to Mood 24 but good friend "Libe". His repetitive drums, fx stabs and groovy sub basses captivates and hypnotises throughout the remix.

We're continuing our exploration of the Russian underground this week, as live double-act Doyeq take a turn under the Data Transmission Spotlight.

With experience in the electronic music scene dating back to 1997, Moscow-based Sergey Kulikov and Vitaliy Bragin joined forces as Doyeq back in 2009. Through continual experimentation, the pair developed their distinct minimal and deep techno sound, focusing around a "powerful groove" and "dub-atmosphere".

The duo have offered up production work via the likes of Slowdance, Pro-Tez, Blumenbeat, StudioR, MOSHItaka and Subspiele, but their exclusive Spotlight Mix is actually made up entirely of unreleased material. Unfortunately this means there's no tracklist, but in light of how special it makes the mix, we thought you guys wouldn't mind!

Stream or download Doyeq's mix here, and head to the group's Facebook for more: https://www.facebook.com/doyeq/timeline
