For the first podcast, Relictronica welcomes we.amps, the Italian duo from Varese who have been shaping the underground with their dynamic fusion of House and Techno. From their roots as resident DJs at This is not party to sharing decks with legends like Massimiliano Pagliara, Jackmaster, and Paranoid London, Andrea Cavani and Fabio Dall’Oglio have honed a sound that’s raw, hypnotic, and deeply analog-driven.

Their journey has taken them from Afro Acid to Solenoid Records, from Hör Radio to Golden Gate, and in 2024, to the legendary Panorama Bar. Now, they open the first chapter of Relictronica Transmission, delivering a mix that channels their signature acid, old-school, and disco-infused energy.

we.amps | Mix April 2025

For our May 2025 episode, Relictronica welcomes Madalba, a name that embodies integrity, intensity, and deep connection to the cultural and political roots of techno.

Born in Bari, Italy, Madalba’s musical interests ranged from punk and rock to house and techno from an early age. She made her club debut at 22 and quickly became a regular in Bari’s scene. In 2011, she moved to Berlin and began DJing exclusively with vinyl, marking the beginning of a more radical and intentional approach to sound.

That same year, she spent a formative month in Detroit, collaborating with DJ Seoul, Tom, and Angie Linder of Detroit Techno Militia. The experience profoundly reshaped her understanding of techno—not just as a genre, but as a social, political, and aesthetic force.

Back in Berlin, she immersed herself in the blooming queer scene, building a network grounded in mutual support and collaboration. Over the years, this connection deepened, as did her role in the city’s underground. Her path led her to residencies at queer institutions like Buttons and its predecessor Homopatik, along with appearances at RSO, SchwuZ, SO36, Berghain, and ultimately Tresor, where she now holds a residency.

Alongside her career as a DJ, Madalba has pursued her profession as a trauma surgeon—a powerful, often invisible role in a male-dominated field—which further sharpened her awareness of her position as a woman navigating complex systems.

With time, she became increasingly conscious of DJing as a form of communication—an act not just of performance, but of building community and expressing values: mutual solidarity, counter-cultural autonomy, and radical respect for diversity and individual expression.

Her first vinyl releases came out in 2014 on DTM-Label (Detroit) and Arkita Records (Berlin), which she co-founded with Synkopheit. In 2017, she launched her own imprint, Future Déjà Vu, with releases from artists such as Transient X4, Ken Karter, Mannella a.k.a. DHARAXT, Phontonz & Shcuro, Rage Therapy, and Bertrand.

Known for her propulsive, percussive sound, hypnotic mixing, and ability to fuse the primordial with the futuristic, Madalba’s sets are immersive journeys that challenge time, structure, and perception.

With deep respect, we welcome her to Relictronica.

For the June 2025 episode, Relictronica welcomes Mike Starr, a British-born, Berlin-based artist whose career spans more than two decades of precision, soul, and deep-rooted sonic storytelling.

A regular presence at Berghain / Panorama Bar, Tresor, RSO, and Heideglühen, Mike is a key figure in Berlin’s nightlife and far beyond — with sets that have moved dance floors from Bassiani, The Cause, and De School, to Funk Club Mexico City, Signal NYC, and Hi Ibiza.

His sound is a living dialogue between 808 electro, NY disco, Detroit techno, and UK tech house — always personal, always in motion. With a distinctive sense of rhythm and space, Mike’s sets carry weight, warmth, and a quiet authority that refuses excess while inviting full immersion.

We’re proud to host a mix that connects eras, continents, and communities — all through groove.

For the July 2025 episode, Relictronica welcomes Jana Falcon, a DJ, producer, BRENN resident, and former vinyl cutting engineer based in Berlin.

Raised near Frankfurt during the golden age of Euro Dance, UK Garage, and 2 Step, Jana brings a deep and instinctive understanding of rhythm, sonic detail, and emotional flow. After relocating to Berlin in 2011, she fully immersed herself in the city’s electronic music culture, developing a unique voice as both a producer and a DJ.

Her sets are a timeless fusion, from 90s House to modern, synth-driven grooves, from Garage and 2 Step to deeper, disco-infused rhythms. What holds everything together is her personal touch — precise, engaging, and unmistakable.

This mix is no exception. It pulses with the same energy Jana brings to every booth — vibrant, generous, and filled with the quiet joy of someone who knows the record before it plays.

We’re proud to host a set that looks ahead without forgetting where we come from.
A tribute to the dance floor, and the freedom it gives.

Jana Falcon for Relictronica.

For the August 2025 episode, Relictronica welcomes Banu, a DJ, electronic music producer and sound artist based in Berlin.

Growing up in South Eastern Turkey within the underground rave scene, Banu developed a distinct approach to mixing, shaped by her background in music, sound art installations and research. She specializes in composing with analog synthesizers, versatile and groovy, and uses sound design as a way to blur the boundaries between music and sound art.

Her sets are immersive journeys, filled with deep grooves, textured layers and transitions that carry both political and emotional weight. She believes in the transformative power of music, using it as a tool for empowerment and connection, with a focus on BIPOC and LGBTQI+ communities.

This mix is no exception. It moves between hypnotic rhythm and uncanny sonic detail, a space where the dance floor becomes both a refuge and a statement.

September opens with a techno journey signed by Luigi Di Venere.
Born under the Southern Italian sun and now based in Berlin, Luigi has been shaping ecstatic dancefloor moments, from the magic of Cocktail d’Amore to the sacred energy of Berghain/Panorama Bar and the freedom of Lab.oratory.

His sound blends explosive and cosmic landscapes, reflected in projects like Banana Moon (with Massimiliano Pagliara), SolidAir (with Jules Etienne), and Affekt Unit (with Neu Verboten). Beyond that, Luigi curates euphoric nights such as Maximum Joy and Power Dance Club, manages the London Phonica Records store at The Store X, and runs Philoxenia Records, the beautiful label created together with Neu Verboten.

But what truly makes him stand out is not only the path he’s built: behind the decks, there’s a luminous person whose energy radiates warmth and beauty, turning every set into a shared experience.

This techno set is his invitation to surrender to the rhythm, to let the vibrations take over, and to discover how powerful it feels to lose yourself in music.

October brings new energy to Relictronica with Tom Peters, DJ, producer and label head of DESSERT in Berlin.
A driving force in the queer club scene, Tom blends groovy house, hypnotic techno and tribal rhythms, shaping dynamic sets that flow between underground intensity and high-energy euphoria. His path spans a residency at Susanne Bartsch’s ON TOP at Le Bain NYC, to Berghain / SNAX, LAB.DANCE, Basement NYC, Gegen, and Pornceptual NYE at RSO Berlin.

Beyond the booth, Tom keeps reshaping the club experience. Since 2012 he has led the DESSERT event series, later expanding into record labels (DESSERT in 2021 and …is serving in 2023), the sober-leaning CLUB SOBER nights, and the playful BERLINCIAGAY project. His collaborations include Grammy Award-winner Honey Dijon, reflecting his deep roots in the global electronic community.

But more than the milestones, what defines Tom is the energy he radiates: intense, luminous, and always pushing for new possibilities.
This mix is an invitation to surrender to his sound, to move without borders, and to feel the pulse of October through his vision.

You are beautiful 🌹

November welcomes Roulita, a Paris-based artist constantly exploring new sounds and forms of musical expression. Self-taught and fearless, she stands out for her ability to unearth cutting-edge tracks and craft unique sets where techno, minimal, breakbeat and tech house blend in a personal and unexpected balance.

Recently invited back to perform at the legendary Berghain, she has already shared the stage with artists such as Yanamaste, Philippa Pacho, Ben Sims, Efdemin and many others. Through her music, she embodies a new generation of DJs driven by creative energy and a strong artistic vision.

It’s a true pleasure to host such an emerging talent, not only for her sound, but for the sensitivity, curiosity and light she carries beyond the booth.

Her set for Relictronica is intense, deep and intimate at the same time, a journey that asks for nothing but to close your eyes, let the sound move through you, and rediscover, for a moment, the beauty that connects us.

You are beautiful 🌹
