A few of my favourite techno/tech house tracks.

Techno/Tech House Tracks

Longtime Berghain resident, Figure Music founder and Berlin techno stalwart Len Faki is known both for his discerning, impeccable taste, so when we heard that he had agreed to remix French artist DNGLS for the enigmatic Anemone Music label, we were understandably enthused.

What Len ended up turning in, however, was much more than simply a remix, but, as the label calls it a “whole new realm of possibilities” – three different versions of DNGLS‘ “Hooly” – and we’ve got an exclusive listen below.

“When I heard the track first time, I instantly loved this special melody a lot,” Len tells us. “It was a pleasure to work on it, also because it is a little different than my other productions and a great experience to work in this direction. In the end, this is how the three different versions were formed, mirroring three different club moments. The first one is more like an energetic moment on the floor, while the ‘Tool’ is clubbier, more subtle, focused on the late night club moments. The ‘Beatless’ version is to listen to outside the club, or starting/ending the night.”

Inox Traxx - Awakenings Festival 2025

El capítulo 12 es el set que Pushmann hizo este mes de septiembre en el Lanna de Gijón. Un mix, como es habitual, muy enérgico, con mezclas a 3 pistas, trucos y sonido old school. Hace muchos años que nos conocemos y Victor ha publicado en mis dos sellos ya sea temas, remixes o EP's enteros. El último de ellos "Alone In the World" que salió en octubre de 2024 y es uno de los releases más exitosos de End Of Dayz. Aunque el tema al que más cariño le tengo es el "The Crown" que salió en el All Stars Vol.2  en 2019. Hemos compartido cabina varias veces en Laut y M7 en Barcelona y en su fiesta Lila Sessions en el Höhle de Zaragoza. A mi parecer Pushmann debería estar pinchando mucho más y por toda Europa pero como vive en Tarazona y no en Berlín... es lo que tiene.

1. ¿Qué música escuchabas antes de interesarte por la electrónica y cómo y cuándo fue que te empezaste a interesar por ella? 
Creo que escuchaba de todo, Hip-Hop, algo de Rock… quizás lo que más, Hip-Hop.Empecé escuchando cosas más Trance, e incluso cosas de salas que entonces había cerca de casa, yo tendría unos 15 años. Pero un día descubrí el álbum de Jeff Mills "Lifelike" en el que aparece “Condor To Mallorca”, y que todavía conservo. Ahí fue cuando la cabeza me explotó. Creo que fue más o menos así: esos serían los pasos que yo di, o que la vida me hizo dar.

2. ¿Cómo y cuándo empezaste a hacer música y por qué?
Empecé a trastear en el año 2012, siempre con Ableton. Oía a gente de mi ciudad que entonces tenía grupos de punk y rock hablar sobre Ableton Live. Bueno, quizás esto fue antes, sobre 2006 o por ahí. Pero realmente, cuando empecé a hacer ruido fue en 2012.
Hice un pequeño curso de iniciación en Zaragoza, poca cosa, solo ilusión, mucha ilusión, pero me frustraba, no tenía un workflow que me hiciera disfrutar, así que solo hacía guarradas con Ableton: edits, bootlegs, etc. Poco a poco fui haciendo horas hasta que en 2016 ya tenía cosas terminadas y conseguí lanzar en sellos como ARTS o KMS junto a Orlando Voorn.
Aunque, honestamente, ahora veo esas producciones y me parecen una auténtica mierda… pero supongo que esto es normal. ¡Jajaja!

3. ¿Cuál es tu tema del que estás más orgulloso?
Siempre digo que mi release en Axis es el más extraño y fuera de mi zona de confort que he hecho. Pero si hay un track que me representa es uno que saqué en mi álbum doble vinilo en Matterwave, donde pude colaborar con Ben Sims, Jeroen Search, Head Front Panel, Kowalski… Ese track es “B2 The Roots ft. Answer 68 | Pushmann | Matterwave Records”.
Creo que logré hacer un track al más puro estilo UR, y eso me hizo muy feliz.

4. Cuéntame los clubes y festivales más destacados donde has pinchado.
Bueno, siendo sincero, creo que el cierre que hice en Florida 135 en su aniversario de 2021 fue un sueño para mí, ya que llevaba más de 20 años yendo a Florida. Fue como cerrar un círculo.
Sitios como Tresor la primera vez, Monegros, los tours por Colombia también marcan mucho… No sé, he tocado en un montón de sitios que nunca imaginé. O bueno, sí imaginé, pero nunca pensé que fuese a suceder.
Y esto me gusta mucho decirlo: a todos los que vienen al techno con una meta, quiero decirles que en el techno no hay metas, hay un camino que disfrutar, y eso es lo más importante.

5. Últimamente estás haciendo música con Truncate, vais a publicar cosas juntos y recientemente hicisteis un B2B en tu fiesta Lila. ¿Cómo surgió la relación con él?
La conexión con David surgió de forma muy natural. Siempre me ha gustado su música, y desde que estoy trabajando en Höhle fue una de mis apuestas

Ancient Resistance EP
Artist: Luis Ruiz
Format: 12"
Record Label: Subsequent Records LTD 
Catalog#: SUB.04LTD
Style: Techno
Country: Argentina
Release date on vinyl: 2016 - July 4th

|Recording Info - Subsequent 04 LTD – Ancient Resistance EP 

This album contains four tracks, based on visceral techno oriented dance floor, with knowledge about analog synthesizers, FM synthesis, and 909 processed drums. Strained ambiences and uptight drones in the air floating with an true essence followed by the most percussive factors, make this work a purist symbol of Techno. A tribute to the evolution dedicated to recreating the universe with his art.

Because Luis Ruiz is Non-Aligned to the impure industry and does not adapt to these times of exacerbated consumerism in a musical trendy tyranny. Spirit musical rebellion. 
In total opposition of the artistic degradation, and total resistance against the tumult where the current goes in this age of chaos on Techno music, it is necessary to destroy for then build. Total war of the instincts.
Luis Ruiz chooses the underground exile, getting out of all cultural poisoning that’s been emerging from contemporary music.
Continuing with his own authentic and personal musical style. Long live to the ancient resistance of the divine creation.

Equipment used on this EP: On studio, Akai MPC 5000 (arrangement and workstation), Akai MPC 1000 (sequences, programs, multitrack), Roland TR8 (tr909 clone), Cyclone TT303 (sequencing), Korg MS20, Arp Odyssey, Yamaha DX200, Korg Electribe RMKII, Soundcraft EFX12. Other gear recorded: MFB 522, MFB Tanzbaer, Waldorf Blofeld .

Yan Cook - Loophole EP [PRRUKBLK013]

Im Steven, a bedroom dj! I like music that evokes frisson (aesthetic chills). I mostly mix techno and uk hardcore. My first ever decks were Pioneer RXM9 CDJ's. I had them for over 10 years and never learned to dj! In late 2014 i bought a Numark Mixtrack Pro with Virtual DJ for mixing mp3's, and learned to beatmatch in a few weeks. In 2016 i upgraded to a Pioneer DDJ-SB2 with Serato, and made more mixes. Then in 2020 i bought a Pioneer DDJ-SB3 (Gold Edition) with Serato. Im considering a Hercules T7 Premium or Rane One controller, with motorised vinyl-style platters to learn scratching.

Favourite Genres: Terror, Uptempo Hardcore, Old School Gabber, Old Skool Rave, UK Hardcore, Trance, Techno, Tech House, Drum n Bass, IDM/Ambient, 90's Hip Hop, UK Grime, and some alternative rock/shoegaze/funk/jazz/soul/blues. I feel i should give a special mention to Bird Song. In all its melodic complexity, its associated with positive psychological effects, and is nature's finest music. 

Favourite Artists: The Speed Freak, Ophidian, Scott Brown, Inigo Kennedy, Planetary Assault Systems, Oscar Mulero, µ-ziq, Casino Versus Japan, Jonny L, Ray Keith, Kool Keith, Madchild, Björk.
