Formerly known as Inhalt Der Nacht, Berlin’s Christoph Faust has been tightening and repurposing his craft around the crucial idea that techno should revive that all-engulfing primitive pulse that powered its initial stages and bring the dance floors back to that deep, entrancing state of mind that makes the crowd mutate into one boiling mass of energy whose course nothing can alter. From droney meanders to hi-velocity breaks, via stretches of melodic uplift and murky, sense-awakening immersion, Faust knows how to steer ravers into the deep waters of soul-healing introspection and beat-driven escapism.

In the 3rd episode of Lost and Found, we're having an inspiring conversation with the notorious ghetto house master DJ Assault (@djassault1) about his visit to @pipdenhaag in 2017 during “Rivaldi invites: DJ Assault”❕❕ We discussed his experience in the venue, his look on the current musical landscape that surrounds him, the meaning of authenticity in the world of DJ’ing, his creative use of sampling, his early inspirations, whether or not there is hope for the future of hip-hop and many more intriguing subjects. All of this went down while DJ Assault navigated Atlanta’s highways, juggling our call with his GPS and making sure he took the right lanes. A must listen for anyone that appreciates the original ‘blueprint’ of electronic music, as DJ Assault would say it!

For our 12th mix in our series, we revisit Nao's sublime sunrise from our November party with the Rural Festival crew. The festival has been flying the flag for deep, trippy techno in Japan for 17 years, so we knew they'd be a great fit for a Rio takeover. 

Nao stepped up after a phenomenal, hypnotic peak time set from Atsushi Maeda. Over three hours, she guided the boisterous dance floor through her full colour palette of techno, from raw and percussive to trancey and sublime, with plenty of left turns to keep dancers on their toes. Nao brought out her psychedelic side to full effect, and we couldn't have been happier that she decided to do so. 

We've been eager to share this set for a while; turn it up and lock in for the whole ride.

JakoJako x Philippa Pacho - Upclose 2025

Grabado en vivo en Dreaming Festival 2025. Function, un verdadero héroe del techno underground y figura esencial en el legado de Sandwell District, entregó un set hipnótico, preciso y emocionalmente cargado. Durante su presentación, el tiempo pareció disolverse.

FUNCTION | DREAMING FESTIVAL 2025

Amsterdam's one and only Deniro returns to the series with a two-hour treat spanning his fast-paced, hi-res techno headspace. Up with the cutting-edge wares and laser-focussed grooves, the TAPE Records co-founder and RYC alum has us drifting across hi-tech machine funk scapes and jagged analogue reliefs, constantly in search for the next mind-expanding thrill. Known for his impeccably chiselled signature cuts blending the finest of future-facing techno with an experimental-leaning approach to production, Deniro turns in a monster transmission, rife with the hypnotic hoodoo and typically entrancing buildups that've made him the surefire agent of techno he is today. A gigantic ride packed with climactic eargasms and unsuspected cliff-hangers. Lock in, zone out.
