For our fourth instalment we present Command Control with a finely selected, peak-time set with tastes of classic and modern techno while simultaneously showcasing some of his own productions.

Command Control is a queer DJ and producer based in London. 

Once a drummer, he’s a lover of rhythmic and percussive club music. A chance encounter in 2017 first led him to discover the hypnotic techno scene in London, where he also developed a penchant for warpy and off-kilter sound design after seeing the performances of artists such as Oscar Mulero and Anthony Linell. 

Self-teaching himself mixing and collecting records, in 2020 he took on a monthly residency at Vandelay Radio where he challenged himself to explore different styles of techno, as well as other genres such as bass and jungle. Off the back of features on London radio stations Threads and AAJA radio in 2022, Command Control now emerges in 2023 with a new residency on komrad radio. 

As a DJ his signature calling card is a pulsating sense of groove and precisely controlled momentum, with his song selection reflecting music both new and old, as well as recently, the incorporation of his own productions.

Juicy Tunes 033 w/ Command Control

o•rbyss aims to help soothe the queer spectrum and focus on the well-being of the community. Queer DJs are invited to submit a mix to showcase an alternative side to their music library outside of a rave and take us on a meditative journey. ✨

Notes on the mix:

"After some excellent contributions to the o•rbyss series by friends of mine, I was invited to record a mix. Ambient and downtempo have long been part of my listening habits — often as tools for focus, unwinding, or finding comfort. I hadn’t listened to these styles much recently, but after a particularly reflective year, this mix felt like the perfect chance to reconnect and create some catharsis for myself. It’s a personal one, moving through moody and introspective moments before ending on a hopeful and uplifting note. I’m grateful for the opportunity and excited to share it - I hope it brings warmth and joy for anyone who listens, just as it has for me."

Command Control is a DJ and producer from London. He released his first EP ‘Essence’ in 2014, fusing his penchants for Dub, Detroit and UK techno.
