Description: Techno veteran Dan Curtin gets behind the decks for this week's RA podcast.

No Way Back, let me set the scene. It’s 6AM and 66 degrees. The dance floor is packed, it's sweaty inside, and it’s about to storm outside again. Derek Plaslaiko is taking over the decks from BMG, getting ready to take the crowd on a journey through his mind — the mind of a rock & roller that’s itching to take the party to the next level. It’s No Way Back on May 26, 2024, Day 2 of Return to the Source at Tangent, in Detroit. Witness the pure insanity as Derek indulges the crowd with a no holds barred onslaught of pure party jams. This is what we experienced.

IT.podcast.s13e03: Derek Plaslaiko at No Way Back 2024

For this set I played on 4 CDJ 3000’s and a V10 mixer, using both of its internal effects processors. For every No Way Back set, and for most sets, I try to prepare new hardware remasters and edits of things that I think would be fascinating recontextualized in this setting. But for NWB, it is even more special, a peak moment, so I try to have new records I’m working on in the studio to test out. For this set that means the hardware mixes I’ve been working on for Torrvo and for Andy Toth can be tested, I’m working on this hardware mixing and remastering tone palate, so I spread that to some edits to give them a whole new power. Playing at No Way Back cannot be put into words, though we try every year, it really is inexplicable without experiencing it. It’s the environment you most want to be in, the space is totally transformed, the sound is dialed in, the audience is so ready, very giving and open, and the feedback you get is incredible. People are up for a ride – we start at the Tangent and end up going to the other side of the universe. Freedom within and without. There’s no place I’d rather be, so I thought I’d share this much sooner than we usually do. Enjoy the ride.

July 2025 Santuario

Amsterdam’s Ratherlost crew has spent the past few years perfecting the art of the marathon rave. Their home base is Lofi, a cavernous warehouse where sound, light, and visuals fuse into long-haul journeys that stretch well past the 18-hour mark. But epic runtimes mean nothing without the right hands at the controls, and Ratherlost has proven it knows how to curate, pace, and execute like pros.

Lofi’s two-floor setup allows for shifting moods: daylight hours wander through deep, dubby techno, slowly morphing into faster, syncopated rhythms as night tightens its grip. Pacing is everything in a space like this. And when it comes to the craft of pacing, few do it better than Bas Dobbelaer.

Bas is one of our favorite DJs for a reason. He understands that a warm-up set is an architecture rather than just background noise. It shapes the room, sets the tone, and welcomes dancers into the story. The mix we’re thrilled to share today was recorded live at Ratherlost’s Easter Sunday session at Lofi, where Bas shared the bill with artists like Aaron J, Na Nich & Vera Logdanidi, Aurora Halal, DVS1, upsammy, Occa, Agonis, Dasha Rush, Seb H, and Oscar Mulero. Quite the roster.

In the face of that stacked lineup, Bas delivered a masterclass in restraint and elegance. His three-hour set unfolds like a novel, tracing dub techno’s DNA across the past two decades. The vibe is timeless, spacious, and beautifully measured, a perfect example of how to warm up a warehouse without blowing the doors off too soon.
This is precisely the kind of DJing we live for: subtle yet commanding, hypnotic yet full of life. Clear your next 180 minutes. Plug in. And get a little Ratherlost yourself.

Delayed x Ratherlost: Bas Dobbelaer

For this episode of our Komorebi Podcast Series, we welcome Swiss DJ, producer, and curator Ben Kaczor, an artist whose sonic language speaks directly to emotion. With a sound that fluidly bridges the introspective and the physical, Kaczor weaves together elements of techno, deep house, and dub techno into minimal yet immersive soundscapes. His sets evoke monochrome atmospheres, subtle melancholy, and deep inner resonance, crafted for spaces of both solitude and connection.

A recent addition to Dial Records and co-founder of St. Odes, his creative path is rooted in a multidimensional approach to sound and art. Whether curating, producing, or performing, Kaczor remains anchored in a clear vision: music to be felt, not deconstructed.

Tune in and dissolve into this timeless sonic journey.
