Dwelling the frontier between deep-diving Basic Chanellian dub and free-rolling techno wares, Berlin’s Arkan has taken his elegant, reverb-swashed blends to labels like SK_eleven and his own imprints, Autonome / Drawner. Through sets and compositions showing near-ascetic attention to envelopes and pinpoint groove-skippering precision, Arkan eases us in a pulsating realm bristling with blurred-out silhouettes hoofing in strobe-lit, fractured motion and stealth, subs-dwelling monsters out your darkest fantasies.

Reclaim Your City 462 | Arkan

Setaoc Mass is the Manchester raised/Berlin based moniker behind SK_Eleven and a techno behemoth with the Midas touch. His golden sound is on just about every dancefloor you’d want to visit: thundering 4/4 beasts skilfully interwoven with gauze-like details provided by his earliest passion for Warp-era electronics. This gritty blend of driving techno and cerebral IDM is one that’s high on horsepower: dry, pummelling basslines, intricately layered hi-hats and sparse but gliding notes that add a softer touch. Unsurprisingly, this Setaoc sound has found a legion of loyal fans as well as fellow collaborators with a similar vision, names like Matrixxman and recent podcast guest Yant with which to bat ideas and release some straight-up bangers. For the purists though, Bassiani Podcast 165’s all Sam Coates: this one’s an hour long studio mix packed with fearsome, erratic beats, chopped-up vocals, frenzied loops and adrenaline-fuelled calculations to get those warehouse walls trembling.

Duplicity 117 | Rethe

Another Barker masterclass.

Sam Barker asks more from techno. The artist known simply as Barker is one of electronic music's most consistently conscientious and curious producers, challenging listeners to question the norms we accept about our shared culture—whether it's the music that fills the room, the process behind it, or the purpose of the space itself.

British-born yet based in Berlin since 2007, Barker forged a connection to many of the city's leading institutions, including Ostgut Ton, and over the course of a long and fruitful relationship, he carved out one of the more singular paths on the club and label's roster.

Not one for orthodoxy, Barker challenged four-to-the-floor techno framework in favor of melodic experimentation. By decentering or completely stripping away the typical trappings of kick drums and claps, his productions are both light and immersive, buoyant in low-end presence and shimmering in weightless space.

Six years after Utility, his sophomore album Stochastic Drift arrives this month. Shaped by pandemic-driven reinvention, it burrows deeper into harmonic twists and freeform drift. "At some point I became conscious of the process," he wrote of his latest album. "The only thing you can do is embrace the uncertainty and see every change as a potential positive.”

Consider his RA Podcast another sequel. Like his much-beloved 2019 mix for FACT, it's a collage of live recordings and a fitting expression of the artist's own internal spring. RA.982 radiates wide-eyed optimism: percussion cloaked in foggy, swirling pads and trance-like chords, neatly synched in synthetic glimmers. 

All in all, it's an hour of music crafted for contemplation, collective euphoria, or heads-down epiphany—or for that matter, any moment, really, its emotive depth seemingly endless.

We’re excited to share the Far Blue perception of Zürich-based Serenne with you today. After catching her live this summer, we were pulled in by the way she blends lush, dreamy sounds with darker moods. While keeping things subtle and immersive, she brings that same energy and depth to this one-hour mix.

“I recently had a conversation with Ben Kaczor, who mentioned an artist I hadn’t heard of before: Hilma af Klint, a Swedish visionary whose work immediately spoke to something inside me. Touched by her paintings, I printed two of her blue-hued pieces — The Ten Largest, No. 1 (1907) and Childhood and Primordial Chaos (1906–1907) — hung them above my setup, and started recording this one-take mix, letting myself drift into the world they opened.

But as I listened back, I found myself entering something else entirely — something that goes beyond those paintings — something deeper, something that transforms. A space beyond sight. That’s where the journey begins for me. And I hope that, for whoever listens, it becomes something personal too. Maybe even a small doorway to something deeper, something invisible… just as Hilma found through her art.

This mix also features beautiful tracks from many dear friends — I feel grateful for each of their creations.”

Championing a sound both rugged and trance-inducing, Porto-based Brazilian producer Marcal clocks in this week with two hours blending future-proof warehouse rave material and claustrophobic 4x4 maneuvers. Hot on the heels of his latest ’Nature of the Future’ EP on Donato Dozzy and Neel’s imprint Spazio Disponibile, Marcal takes us on a mind-bending ride down raucous sine-scapes and brooding, verbed-out atmospheres, constantly pushing the envelope of techno as can be experienced these days. Resuming its course as a means for transcending our (currently much gloomy) zeitgeist, techno here gets back on its revolution-friendly tracks, finding its second breath as a metamorphic tool for blazing new paths and routes towards a better, more intelligently designed world. There goes a mix that summons the very finest of Marcal’s boundary-pushing vision and killer knack for crafting memorable and emancipatory floor narratives. Brace yourselves.
