Norman Nodge from Berlin is my guest in Episode 32 of Portal the podcast. He’s resident DJ at Berghain and released on Marcel Dettmann Records and of course on Ostgut Ton. Together with Marcel Dettmann, he will release a new track on the Ostgut Ton Fünfzehn + 1 compilation on November the 5th.

I recorded one hour of music for you as well with tracks by Viril, Talismann, Morten B. and more.

Music is able to lift you into other dimensions, so come with me through this portal and immerse into the depths of my record collection.

Portal Episode 32 by Markus Suckut and Norman Nodge

Macedonian-born, Berlin-based deep and dubby choons expert merchant Stojche Cvetanovski has established his name as a leading figure for all things techno in the Balkan peninsula. Through some choice platters for the likes of A.r.t.less, Conform Records, Subwax and his own imprint, Tangible Assets, Stojche has progressively laid the foundation to a body of work both hypnotically immersive and funky above all. His RYC transmission doesn’t depart from such prerogatives and we’re chuffed to share not one but two hours of our friend Stojche’s pinpoint all-vinyl gospel. Embrace the flow.

Reclaim Your City  

Reclaim Your City 471 | Stojche

In the early hours of Friday morning, from 7 to 9 am, I had the honour of gracing the stage of this iconic festival – a place that holds a special place in my heart since my first visit in 2001. Fusion has always been the epitome of what a festival should be, and being invited to play on the main stage was a dream coming true.

For this sunrise set, I didn't go straight for the heavy bangers. Instead, I carefully curated a selection of tracks that were meant to ignite that special colourful energy as the festival prepared to take it´s morning rest soon. This set is a mix of vinyl gems, with a few digital exclusives sprinkled in. This warmth and authenticity of vinyl mixing, especially that magical low end quality, on a sound system like Lambda Labs, takes precedence over the perfectly polished digital mixes.

I really hope you have a great time with this set, just like I did when I played it. Unfortunately, we hit some technical snags at the beginning, so that part got cut off...

Title pic was taken on my way to the festival. S - Berlin Gesundbrunnen foreva :)

Mareena @ Turmbühne - Fusion Festival - 30 June 2023

Now in its 200th instalment, this Podcast has given voice to a diverse offering of global talents across the musical spectrum, from the democratic rhythms of zeitgeist appropriate techno and house through to more avant-garde synthwork.

This next guest has cast a large shadow over the technosphere, so large in fact, that no introduction could fully encompass the breadth of his achievements. But in brief: Ben Klock is a titan whose formative years were spent playing marathon mixes to the crowds at Berlin’s (then recently opened) Berghain. Off the back of his endurance sets and the club’s success he became a household name whose influence grew to be felt across the world, with a body of work that includes appearances at an exhaustive list of clubs and festivals, a number of hot releases on Ostgut Ton and an equally respected self-run label (Klockworks) to boot. On this second imprint, his own productions have repeatedly seen the light of day, alongside those from the likes of DVS1, Sterac, Stef Mendesidis and younger talents like Temudo and Vil & Cravo. The sound, ubiquitous as it is, will be familiar to anyone involved in the world of electronic music and there’s good reason for that: Klock’s deep and percussive work and ability to pull from a wide range of influences have earmarked him as a unique agent for the techno cause. Atmospheric and delivered with hammering force, Klock’s refined palette for rhythms is as relevant now as ever. Bassiani Podcast 200 is a measure of driving loops and purist textures, dexterous and provocative techno from start to finish, simply put: a banger

Sonhan invites Marie-Julie @ GIMIC - 24 April 2025

The Lady Machine is back for another round of Podcast fun for Bassiani Podcast 266. Born in Rio, based in Berlin, Camila Milieme developed an ear for techno at a young age, attending Brazil’s Galaktika parties and picking up tracks from radio show Novas Tendencias before landing her first gig at the fresh age of 21, and at the famed Bunker 94 in São Paulo no less. Following studies in music production in the UK, she eventually landed in Berlin and channeled everything into a dual career as DJ/producer. Her vinyl sets were, are, contagious and brimming with rapid-fire basslines, relying heavily on the type of techno à la Detroit that has been so foundational to the genre without aging a day. These ones she’s published on Mote Evolver, half of Unterwegs with musicmate Decka and resident at free-spirited Berlin party series Pornceptual. A successful crowd-DJ alliance is no easy task, but twenty years of experience have sharpened her instinct for sound and the people she’s playing it to. Driving techno that lurches along on a razor edge, slamming rhythms that vibrate through the body, the magical and unquantifiable substance that allows the very best raves to coalesce. Whatever it is she has it in spades and this latest instalment proves it. This recent number’s a cut from her live set at Bassiani in mid April; rampant grooves and low-end layers picked, welded together and distorted by this singular Brazilian talent, and mastered by @neptunemastering. The Lady Machine’s chopped-up beats are a techno purist’s dream, this newest arrival makes it reality.

@philippapacho is like a musical Swiss knife: she has exactly the right tool for every occasion, from warm-ups to peak time to wonky afters. It was a long residency at Under Bron in her native Stockholm that equipped her with those skills, and since moving to Berlin, she's gone on to make her mark across Europe playing all forms of techno. Late last year, Pacho launched her own label Phorum Records as a further extension of her sound, and she also curates tracks and parties under the Positive Source banner.

This August, Pacho joins us at Amsterdamse Bos for Dekmantel 2025 but first serves up this deeply cerebral trip into Millsian techno. It's a high-speed selection of sleek and synth-laced sounds rich in narrative, be that mind-melting urgency, more dark and moody undercurrents or a sense of cosmic unknown. Utterly timeless and effortless classic, this is techno in its most futuristic form.

Over Christmas 2014 I needed a break from recording
my album, searching online for a song I recalled from
my youth, I fell into a rabbit hole of thousands of
YouTube playlists and posts, rediscovering the songs
my friends and I would gather and listen to as
13 & 14 yr olds every Saturday in East Berlin on Radio DT64
(now Berlin's Radio Fritz).

I stumbled back to the future, collecting over 5000 songs
on YouTube, learning for the first time the artists behind
the songs we heard almost 25 years ago.

The forthcoming trilogy is the result of 18 month
of building edits from YouTube recordings and stitching
them together off-line. I could not include every song,
nor indeed even the entire tracks from this small period
until 1993, so this is my personal history of electronic
music arriving in Berlin.

This trilogy will not be sold, it was a labor of love,
born of nostalgia and made for sharing.

Paul Kalkbrenner: Back To The Future - Part 2

Artist: Night Talk
Title: Hours EP
Label: Definition:Music
Release Catalogue: DMU056
Format: Digital
Releasedate: 08. August 2016
Genre: Deep House
Web: www.definitionmusic.ch

1) Night Talk - Drowning
2) Night Talk - Golden Hour
3) Night Talk - Blue Hour

 Night Talk whips up a deep and dusty mood with his latest EP on Definition:Music. Enter the Hours EP; A 3 track adventure through some of the darkest corners of the night. 'Drowning' starts us off chugging along with the tensions slowly rising as the synths play their game among the shadows. Soon enough, Night Talk shows us what 'Drowning' is all about, captivating in its simplicity and elegant in its execution. 'Blue Hour' turns the dials a bit further, adding a new level of hustle with a bit more drama in the mix. Still deep, still dark, and still very ripe for the dancefloor. Coming up on the 'Golden Hour' now, Night Talk lets things relax, but only just the track still has enough swing in it to keep a floor packed, but with a bit more warmth and less tension than its more epic siblings.
