Better be ready for our next SPANDAU20 Mixtape guest: Swedish techno legend @CariLekebusch! 📼

Now based in Helsinki, Cari is a key figure from the second generation of techno producers in the late '80s and '90s. His relentless innovation has cemented his place as pioneer of the Swedish techno scene. With over thirty years in music, his reputation as a studio scientist is well-documented. Throughout his career, he has adopted numerous pseudonyms and consistently pushed the boundaries of techno.🚀

For his SPND20 mixtape, Cari keeps it minimal yet powerful on the gear side, with an Allen & Heath DB4 mixer and three Pioneer CDJs. He adds a unique touch with extra loops and sounds from his iPhone app, "EZPZ." If you’re into experimenting, you should definitely check it out—it's free!🔊

The mixtape revolves around the vibe of his upcoming album, "Hybrid Sound Architects V1.0," dropping June 24th on his label H-Productions. Expect a journey through sweaty, raw, and hypnotic soundscapes. The tape seamlessly blends deep, pulsing beats with abrasive, unrefined textures that keep you locked in from start to finish. Cari’s selections showcase a mix of new tracks from the album and other personal favorites, bringing a fresh yet timeless energy to the mix.🌀

An interesting fact for our fellow DJs and producers: Cari's registered this mix as a virtual mix on "aslice", ensuring all artists get their fair share.🖤

SPND20 Mixtape by Cari Lekebusch

#191 - Move D

'A Hot Summer Night in 1991'
This mix was made to bring you back to the golden days of House.
Back when it had never been on the radio, never seen on tv & only some Parkzicht-tapes circulated the neighbourhood.
Step into this time machine & enjoy thé most beautiful tracks from that era! 🙏🌌💫🌃💥

Sound Metaphors Mix Series 37 : Space Arp Pete

We revive our Global Selection series with a standout contribution from one of France's most authoritative selectors of his generation, Ivan Smagghe.

Ahead of his return to Dublin for Big Dish Go this weekend at Centre Point, Smagghe delivers a masterful hour of storytelling through sound. From shimmering downtempo rarities to deep, driving house cuts and smoky, electro-kissed grooves, his mix unfolds like the hazy soundtrack to a foggy morning in the hills of an undisclosed rave, transporting you there, or wherever your wandering mind takes you.

Few DJs can transform obscurity into dancefloor gold like Ivan Smagghe. With a musical ethos reminiscent of the late, great Andrew Weatherall, Smagghe acts as a raw conduit, channelling his notoriously esoteric record collection into the pulsing bodies beneath the strobe. His latest mix is yet another example of his singular talent—a deep dive into the avant-garde fringes of electronic music, held together by an intuitive understanding of groove and space.

Smagghe has long been at the intersection of Parisian hype and unwavering musical integrity. From his pioneering work with Black Strobe to his boundary-pushing productions as one half of It’s A Fine Line, he has received praise from some of the most respected names in electronic music, including James Murphy, Trevor Jackson, Ata, Optimo, and, of course, Weatherall himself. What is their shared mission? To demonstrate that electronic music is more than just a hedonistic soundtrack; it is a constantly evolving art form.

“I have very fond, if a bit blurred, memories of the Big Dish Go parties in the basement of Kennedy’s… Loud and wild they were but we live in the now and we must let that spirit live on. It’s just about freedom, in that mix (who cares what style it is) and in that ephemeral companionship with David Holmes. Freedom & Love”

Four Four Global Selection 060 - Ivan Smagghe

Flying away from the Typhoon Kong-rey with the last plane from Shanghai, arriving straight to Miki Abe, his inaugural wonderful Picnic People Panic to the DJ booth at Womb Tokyo to take over from the superb Alien Sex Friends.

Here is the live recording.

Ryosuke Tsuchiya, who also served as PA, mastered this mix. He used a unique approach, including IR reverb, to simulate the environment of the day with an immersive feel.
WOMB is a club with a very high ceiling and wooden floor. The subwoofer, with its large horn, gives the kick a rich ambience.

Enjoy!

With character and a refreshing light-heartedness, DJ City has built a strong following on European dancefloors over the last few years. Drawing from both old school Chicago, Italo, and contemporary producers, he playfully navigates the elements that make up a well-constructed dance floor. After a string of releases on labels such as Public Possession, he now also runs BAD DAD, his own party in Berlin, within which he cultivates, experiments, and plays around with the fundamentals of what it is to be a DJ. For the 51st edition of PHANTASYMIX, he's on hand to present a contemporary but classic vista of the timeless four-to-the-floor sound:

"There’s a lot happening in house music at the moment so I wanted to focus on recent releases for this mix. At the same time, you’ll hear a lot of grooves and moods that you'll instantly recognize and be familiar with. I love how House music always is referencing and pointing back in history. It constructs narratives and relationships that span time and space, something that feels extra important to me right now." DJ City

A somewhat mysterious DJ from France, Adrien has been lugging around a back-breaking collection of records gathered over 15 years of questionable life choices and obsessive digging. Moving to Amsterdam helped him discover new sounds and obscure subgenres, and gave him a fresh set of eyes on DJing. Amid the chaos his soft spot for disco has always found its way in his selections, and his sets are a hopeful attempt to make sense of it all.

H.A.N.D. MIX 074 : Adrien

I met Meg through a mix she did for Trushmix, where I enjoyed her sound as well as her selection of records. So after that I started listening to her shows for Balamii Radio where I found a lot of music that made me feel a lot <3.

So I decided to invite her to the mix series and here she is with a new mix for Esencia with some of her favorite 90's and 00's records she found in her favorite stores in London and Brighton.

Underground Resistance founder Robert Hood is one of the pioneering old guard who is still doing it right today. He is the epitome of Detroit house and techno, serving up pulsing minimal, and has been since the early nineties. Last year he joined our label for a series of three EPs entitled Paradygm Shift and a full length which will see the light of day the 22nd of May. The project is aimed to take techno out of its current comfort zone and very much did so, as does Hood himself whenever he plays one of our parties. 

Now he has served up the latest mix in our series and once again subverts expectation. His hour long Paradygm Shift Mix water no time in establishing a rock solid kick drum, and then proceeds to colour the airwaves around it with hypnotic hi hat loops, rougher claps, and raw synths. As ever with Hood, it is a bouncy and fast moving mix that hurries you along at a great rate, but because there are so many thrills along the way, you are more than willing to go wherever he wants to take you.
