VARIA is pleased to present the next episode in its podcast series, featuring Maemm.

Based in Paris, Maemm builds her sets as immersive journeys, where hypnotic techno blends with ambient textures and subtle psychedelic shades. Her deep curiosity and constant search for new sounds shape a musical identity in perpetual evolution.

She has performed alongside renowned artists and played in respected venues, including the legendary Berghain.

In 2021, she co-founded La Taquinerie, a collective dedicated to ambient and downtempo experiences, merging video art and poetry. For two years, the collective held a residency at La Gare / Le Gore, curating Thursday nights with a singular artistic vision.

This episode continues VARIA’s mission: championing considered electronic expression and lasting artistry.

The 59th episode of Schimmer's podcast series was recorded by Berlin-based DJ and promoter Reka Zalan.

Reka is known for hypnotic depths and percussive drives — always tuned to atmosphere and often drawn to the gloomier sides of Techno. Her sets, whether digital or vinyl, move forward, outward, and inward, balancing tension and flow. Deeply rooted in Berlin’s scene, she’s a local Tresor resident, Hard Wax staffer, part of Coppi collective, and former ://elements co-host. Before immersing herself fully into club life, she worked at the Berlin Music Commission. Driven by curiosity and connection, Reka loves building bridges through sound and shared moments.

Boss of Madrid’s seminal imprint Semantica, Spanish DJ and producer Svreca steps in the series with a monster two-hour jaunt into his multi-faceted techno headspace. As ever busy pushing the club sound’s envelope with great loads of heavyweight kicks and trenchant snares, Svreca has us all kitted out for a breathtaking dive into gravityless territories and cragged moonscapes. Flush with hair-raising momenti, unsuspected plot twists and climactic rollercoasting, his mix shifts the focus constantly betwixt textural magnification and rhythm-enslaved abandon, having you wading into the instant’s XTC to most mesmeric effect. A rough, Indus-minded masterclass from one of the finest to ever do it. Rampage mode on.

V:SONNTAG !

Eine Leipziger DJ, die mit ihrem hypnotischen, fokussierten Sound längst über die Grenzen ihrer Heimatstadt hinaus bekannt geworden ist. Während sie in Leipzig eng mit der lokalen Szene rund um das inzwischen geschlossene, aber legendäre Institut für Zukunft und die Neue Welle verbunden ist, hat sie auch auf renommierten Bühnen wie ://about:blank, Tresor und Berghain gespielt.

Als Gründerin des Focus: Podcast und Mitglied des Nebula-Kollektivs prägt sie eine ästhetische Handschrift, die zwischen trippiger Tiefe, dunkler Energie und minimal-grooviger Leichtigkeit oszilliert. Ihr Anspruch ist es, Sets mit klarer Dramaturgie zu gestalten, die das Publikum auf eine Reise mitnehmen – mit einem roten Faden, der von den ersten bis zu den letzten Klängen durchgezogen ist.

Besondere Aufmerksamkeit erregte ihr legendäres Closing im Tresor, bei dem sie trotz Nervosität und angeschlagener Gesundheit die Nacht bis in den Mittag hinein prägte. Die Intensität dieser Erfahrung und die enge Verbundenheit zu ihrem Umfeld unterstreichen, wie sehr V:SONNTAG Musik nicht nur als Performance, sondern als kollektives Erlebnis versteht.

Ihre „geheime Waffe“ ist die sorgfältige Vorbereitung: Jedes Set wird von ihr akribisch durchdacht, um den Flow bewusst zu formen und die Energie im Raum Schritt für Schritt zu steigern. Dabei kombiniert sie gerne dunkle, hypnotische Klänge mit melodischen Elementen, die im Verlauf für überraschende Wendungen sorgen.

V:SONNTAG !

A Leipzig-based DJ, V:SONNTAG has long made a name for herself beyond the borders of her hometown with her hypnotic and focused sound. While deeply connected to the local scene surrounding the now-closed but legendary Institut für Zukunft and Neue Welle, she has also performed at renowned venues such as ://about:blank, Tresor, and Berghain.

As the founder of the Focus: Podcast and a member of the Nebula collective, she shapes an aesthetic signature that oscillates between trippy depth, dark energy, and minimal, groovy lightness. Her ambition is to create sets with a clear dramaturgy that take the audience on a journey – with a red thread running from the very first to the very last sound.

Her legendary Tresor closing gained particular attention, where despite nervousness and feeling unwell, she shaped the night until well into the following day. The intensity of this experience and her close connection to those around her highlight how much V:SONNTAG understands music not only as performance, but as a collective experience.

Her “secret weapon” is meticulous preparation: every set is carefully thought out to deliberately shape the flow and gradually build up the energy in the room. In doing so, she loves to combine dark, hypnotic sounds with melodic elements that create surprising twists along the way.

MNMT 485 : Isabel Soto

Hailing from Santiago de Chile, eclectic talent Marcelo Antonio is a formidable voice for deep, mind-bending techno. Since 2018 the DJ/Producer has been putting out a growing number of releases on labels like Float, Keyhole, Methodical, Antiterra, EVOD Music, and delivered killer sets across his native Chile and Europe, honing a class of sound that’s full-bodied, deep and geared for marathon raves. His self-published work via Bandcamp-only outlet Out of Sight too, offers a further glimpse into his intimate studio workings: high-concept and movement driven tracks that foment rhythmic contemplation. His frequent collaborators include widely recognised industry staples like Kwartz, DVS1, Kr!z, Ruben Ganev, TWR72, Border One, Biri and Samuli Kempi, a sounding board comprised of peers that share in his passion for primal loops. It’s an elegant techno that layers up textures and builds up tension second by second, and steers its bow towards a distant and euphoric horizon. This master of mood is here with a number that’ll push your body and mind to the limit, liminal techno that hypnotises and fringes the frontier of techno. Bassiani Podcast 276 is one you don’t want to miss.

OPH is a French-born DJ and producer based in Berlin, recognized for his dedication to vinyl and his deep connection to the city’s techno culture. His journey began in Lyon, where he was active as a music journalist and ran a webzine focused on the local scene. In 2014 he moved to Berlin, a decisive step that allowed him to immerse himself in the city’s clubs and to start playing regularly.

Over the years, OPH has shaped his sound through record digging and a broad musical background, channeling these influences into sets that balance intensity and emotion. This approach has brought him to play acclaimed closing sets at Berghain and RSO.

Beyond his solo work, he performs alongside his close friend Chami in their Face 2 Face project. Together they have played at iconic venues such as Berghain, Bassiani and Womb in Japan.

In recent years, OPH has also turned to music production, adding a new layer to his artistic journey and opening the way for future projects that reflect his ever evolving vision.

Born and raised in Rome, Luigi Tozzi is undoubtedly one of the most prolific and outstanding talents of his generation to come out of Italy. Slip into any record store worth its salt, or clubs from Tbilisi to Lisbon and you’ll find traces of his work there; his signature sound has sold its share of records true, but also deeply influenced the work of many of his contemporaries. His expansive compositions intimately tied to the space they’re heard in, circling in perfect arcs below the water’s surface, where sunlight becomes scarce and a connection with sound paramount. Reformulating not only dub. techno and ambient, but a trove of memories diving off the coast of Sicily’s neighbour Salina (and with the help of analog digital tools, VSTs and controllers during live performances), Tozzi has developed a mastery for hypnotic rhythms like nothing you’ve heard before. His close working relationship with Swedish output Hypnus, as well as Outis and Non-Series have pushed his aquatic sound to it’s absolute limit, creating a world of poignant textures that have given his genre the gift of new horizons. Here he visits the Podcast for an epic 128 minutes that delve into his abyssal world, haunting rumbles and immersive techno, a ghostly, shimmering live-set recorded at Bassiani.

PREMIERE: Onyr - Resonance [Linderluft]

Straight outta the fiord lands of southern Norway comes the new EP from Hydrous. We’ve come to a point where we no longer need to introduce the sound universe of Per Christian Berg to our ever-growing Navigare tribe, as he’s become a foundation for what we are and what we want to express. “Deep Techno”, “Psychedelia”, “Neo Trance” – call it whatever you like, what matters is that our brand of electronic dance music can assist your spirit to fly.

Simple, yet rich in detail; uniform, yet explorative; uplifting, yet with an unmistakable Nordic melancholia – Hydrous music continues to hypnotize and fascinate us at the Navigare HQ, and we’re happy to continuously receive the praise he deserves from around the globe from his past collaborations with us.

For this release you’ll notice a subtle gain in intensity in all three tracks. Although being far from peak time monsters, the aim here is undoubtedly to entrance a focused dancefloor, preferably while the sun is rising. Whether it’s the Eden-like atmosphere of “Cascade”, the introverted broken beats of “Infinite” or the meaty trance of “Pathos” that will guide the crowd through the morning session is only a matter of circumstances and taste.

Remix work is by none other than Buenos Aires based Forest On Stasys. Owner of the celebrated label Danza Nativa and a highly accomplished producer, stretching from tribal Ambient to dirty, mind-melting peak-time Techno, we knew we’d be in for a treat for this collaboration. Staying true to a Hydrous sound universe, while adding gentle tribal percussion and some über-psychedelic alien bleeps á la Eat Static, this track will blow minds on a starlit night out in the wild.
