Always on the edge between algid precision and warm house flavors, Vlad Caia is the man entrusted for our #300 mix milestone. This podcast also marks Vlad’s return after over 4 years since his first appearance on Meoko, giving us a new, refined, and even more avantgarde guise of the Romanian maestro. In this mix, the SIT and Amorf affiliate is not afraid to explore the entire sound palette with shimmering electronic synths that pave the way to mental groove patterns and absolutely mesmerizing atmospheres, drawing a line into the cosmos’ vibes. This time, Vlad’s trademark infectious drums pattern move a little bit faster compared to his previous approach, indeed sneaking on the heels of the most contemporary sound boundaries but, at the same time, sticking to the roots that made him one of the pillars of the Romanian-wave. Dreamers, start your engines!

Durante su tour por Cholula, Cosmjn, productor y DJ Rumano nos comparte unreleased tracks, finos para gozar a cualquier hora del día.

Cosmjn @Radio28 (23 De Noviembre, 2022)

G76 & Zefzeed latest project departs from the DJ role in favour of sth more introspective: a live act recorded at Guesthouse in Oct 2022.

GEF's one-and-a-half-hour live performance resembles a continuous sound collage in which different sound worlds are juxtaposed.

Soldered together from elements of industrial and ambient, they've added an extra layer of depth with oriental influences. Their ground groove is driven by an off-road vehicle that puts its suspension to the test.

As the mix progresses, the producers add considerable emotional weight. The songs are all cut from the same cloth, but they're just different enough to catch your ear one after the other. Distortion has always played a key role in their music, but it has never sung the way it does here.

Conventional linear space-time breaks down and is crushed beneath the mix's lumbering 4/4 heartbeat and successive waves of distortion. As each wave recedes, samples trickle forward into the mix. Voices and textures rise and fall in eerie inversion. Overlapping, implied melodies flicker into focus, then disappear. There's a "deep-rooted melancholy," a sensibility passed down from traditional Middle Eastern music that is captured in GEF's sound around minute 27. The live performance continues shortly after with an incantation: The vocal samples used convey a deep heaviness; the halting drums and minor key sound mournful and haunting.

Mihigh @ ABC Series 001

This recording is an extract from the Twilight set of Dubtil at Club Guesthouse. The party is an invite only event series at the club. Dubtil closed the night which saw guests such as Cezar, Edward, Vlada, SIT, among others, this is the first 2hrs extract of a 6hrs set at my dear home club. 

Having been there for this night and this closing set, I chose to put it out on the Toi Toi Mix Series not only because Dubtil has become part of our agency roster, in fact, it is because of things like this he is but also because this represents the milestone of my exploration in Romania. 

Charged with a reputation I always disliked, of being ‘flat and boring’ some Romanian artists have been unfairly judged and Dubtil is the primary example of that, he showed me here that this country has a pool of talents which are yet to be uncovered and oh boy, how enlightening to see them surface. Following on from the legacy that made him grow as an artist he shows here true djing by what djing should stand for. An extremely well structure and diverse peak time set which broke me in a 1000 pieces in positive surprise when being on his dance floor, elegantly 'ballsy'.  

This comes to reassure that my belief in the talents in this country is real, that for these past 10 months I have been here I continue to be shocked when these boys become a surprise box of amazing music research, killer mixing and structure, leading of course, to the highest standard of Djing, anything but flat or boring but rather enlightening and energising, full of personality and character, just what I want to see on dance floors​ hence why I stand proudly by it. ​



Thank you Dubtil for showing me this and for reassuring my faith in this country which I chose as my home. 

Watch this space, there is a lot more from​ where​ this came from!

In the endless sea of producers and selectors, only a few leave a lasting impression. They are the niche artists, individuals that push sonic boundaries into new territory with skill, and purpose. Over the last 5 years Silat Beksi has made quite the impression on minimal music lovers across the globe by doing just that. Utilising his own unique combination of rhythms & special imprinted textures to craft emotive and energetically charged pieces of music. This was recognized early on with labels like Romaniaís Tzinah Records, Moscowís Body Parts and Ukranian imprint Mulen Records offering him a platform through which to release and refine his musical style. In 2014 this culminated in the release of Silat's first full length album, with ten wondrously diverse minimalist cuts seeing a digital release on Mulen. Having achieved this milestone, the talented producer dedicated himself to the perfection of his craft with a renewed determination, going vinyl only and launching his own imprint Modeight Records in 2016. Itís a label family that boasts some of the hottest new talent in minimal house and techno, giving rise to producers such as Germanyís Durrrred & Romanian young guns Dragutesku and RQZ. Their intuitive and forward thinking approach to minimalist music is creating sonic ripples throughout the global underground scene, challenging the existing boundaries of the genre once again.  

Fast forward to the present and Silat Beksi has amassed an enviable body of 12î releases on his journey so far. Cementing himself as one of the most inform talents in Europes underground scene with releases on labels like Germanyís almighty Pleasure Zone, Welsh imprint Dreams Are Not Inside, What You Want, Vivus Records and of course his own imprint Modeight. His sound continues to morph and develop, defying classification with it's heady combination of technoís rhythmic sensibility, breakbeat influence and warm atmospheric textures that hypnotise and excite.
