Dani Sbert Podcast Techno Hypnotik Raw August 2025

Rising from the underground with a signature blend of groove and drive we are very happy to welcome Turkish DJ & Producer Bedez to our Say What? family.

The title track 'Chrono Spiral' sets the pace with razor-sharp percussion, a relentless groove, and eerie modular and vocal stabs that soar through time like mechanical echoes. The track builds tension through subtle shifts and syncopated patterns, creating a sense of propulsion that perfectly captures the EP’s temporal theme.

'Groove Tides' dives deeper into rhythm, pushing rolling low-end energy under intricate hats and a warped vocal slice that ebbs and flows like a restless tide. It's a DJ tool at heart, but with enough funk and swing to catch dancers off guard – built for those marathon sets that refuse to let up.

'Mildew Funk' brings a raw texture, combining dirty synth licks with filtered chords and a pulsating bassline that oozes underground flavour. There’s a touch of mischief here — think sweaty basements, strobing lights, and hypnotic repetition layered with funk-fuelled attitude.

'Tunnel Vision' closes the EP with a sophisticated touch. A tight, evolving groove pulses through a dense tunnel of reverb and atmosphere. Mechanical textures, looped bleeps, and rolling sublayers create a trance-inducing momentum — perfect for those introspective 4 AM moments when the outside world disappears.

Enjoy

Mashed Techno Podcast #39 with Hax

CDTRAX & Gabrielle join forces for a striking deep modular techno statement on Say What? with the Form And Void EP - a four-track journey that explores tension, texture, and the interplay between raw machine energy and hypnotic groove.

We start off with 'Form And Void' an immersion into contrast: delicate atmospheres collide with raw, pulsating low-end pressure. A spiraling modular sequence evolves throughout, never static, shifting shapes like liquid metal in constant transformation. Echoed percussion and shadowy textures create a sense of vast negative space, allowing the groove to breathe yet always pushing forward with purpose.

 Next up is 'Balance' a hypnotic rhythm sets the foundation, while modulated synth tones weave in and out, destabilizing the listener’s sense of grounding. Subtle harmonic layers rise and fall like distant signals, offering moments of serenity before plunging back into rolling, hypnotic momentum. The track becomes a meditation on equilibrium - how groove, distortion, and space coexist within one evolving system.

 The third track on the release is 'Kill The Messenger' a rolling deep excursion with metallic percussion and a growling, distorted modular bassline. The arrangement strips things down to essentials, creating an atmosphere of urgency and confrontation. With its minimal yet impactful design, it conjures the feeling of being locked inside the machine.

 We are closing the EP with, 'Mechatronic' an ode to kinetic energy and futurist sound design. Pulsating modular sequences interlock with crisp, precision-engineered drum programming, creating an almost biomechanical groove. The textures blur the line between human and machine, organic imperfection and engineered precision.

Yan Oxygen is back with us for Respekt 142 with the eagerly awaited follow-up to last year’s “Orionis”.
“Rampage” barrels along with deep, filtered sub bass and clanking synths, with only a brief moment’s respite in some tense strings before the rampage resumes. On the figurative flip-side, 05AM is a more melodic moment, with thick synth pads and an evocative looped vocal to get those early morning hands in the air.
The remix of “Rampage” is delivered by Hungarian duo Steam Shape, who have turned in a great alternative take, adding a little more groove, and extending the break into an ethereal moment with emotive chords and twinkling synth lines.

London-based producer Cera Alba pairs up with vocalist Zahra for a pair of tough tracks on Jamie Jones’ Hottrax this June featuring a remix from Stockholm’s Tiger Stripes.

Since his humble beginnings several years ago the Newcastle-born artist has cemented a reputation for consistency, with releases appearing on the likes of Hot Creations, Moon Harbour, VIVa MUSiC,
Avotre, Madtech and Gruuv. As a DJ he’s been making regular appearances across Europe, including venues such as Watergate Berlin, Sankeys Ibiza, Brixton Academy London, not to mention festivals such as Hideout.

‘Taking Over Me’ is a dark and moody roller from the get-go. Robust drums and mesmerizing atmospherics form its basis whilst Zahra’s soulful vocals and a cavernous low-end rumbles throughout to its rhythm as a piercing vocal and metallic elements ebb in and out of the mix. Tiger Stripes then provides a crunchy remix of ‘Taking Over Me’, distorting Zahra’s vocals whilst incorporating tantalizing synths into his own stomping rendition.

What Came First is a label set and ran by the people behind leading UK club venue EGG London, and its new EP is a melodic Techno release with original tracks from Metodi Hristov plus a remix from Kyle E.

Metodi Hristov is a Bulgarian based DJ and producer who has released music on labels including Octopus, Terminal M, Noir Music, Snatch! Records, Deeperfect Records, Rejected, Gruuv, Glasgow Underground and his own Set About.

Having released his first record in 2009, Metodi Hristov has for years been rising through the ranks of the world's electronic music elite. Many became aware of him after his 2014 Ibiza anthem “Step Outside”, which was listed by DJ’s such as Matthias Tanzmann as being one of his favourite tracks of the year.

Providing the solo remix is EGG London resident Kyle E, who many will recognise from John Digweed's “Live On South Beach” compilation, which featured the Christian Burkhardt remix of Kyle’s track “Arp For You Heart”.

The first track 'Wild East' has dark bass stabs that fill the track with menace and unnerving tension, whilst fast flowing hi-hats and a rolling bassline provide the energy. A melodic lead synth adds just a touch of euphoria, making this is perfectly sculpted dancefloor techno at its best.

Second on the release is 'The Room' that has throbbing low end stabs layered over pulsating bass tones. The lead synth is filled with suspense that contrasts against the gliding bursts from the melodic pad, lifting this relentless track that's packed with exhilarating forward momentum.

For the third and final track Kyle E reworks 'Wild East'. Keeping the originals lead keys, he adds his own bassline that grows with tension as the track develops. Using a dreamscape melody, his remix provides a deeper version for those who like things progressive and epic.

RESPEKT is the label manifestation of the internationally recognised artist duo Spektre. It has been developed as a base for the research and exploration of their sound and to experiment within the new and innovative world of electronic music that we live in today.  Derived from an anagram of Spektre, the Respekt label stands for the artist’s interminable belief in the underground soundtrack that spans the globe, and for the inspiration they gleam from producing, performing, and moving in the circles it revolves in.

As two of the most widely respected techno artists to come out of the UK in recent times, founders Paul Maddox & Richard Wakley have travelled the world in the past three years performing the Spektre LIVE show, to rapturous acclaim. While stealing the show at clubs around the globe, they have been inspired by cultures from every dance floor, and as producers they have released on the crème de la crème of techno's elite labels. 

Massive support has come from the likes of techno kings Carl Cox, Sven Vath, Dubfire and Laurent Garnier, while James Zabiela has championed them as his “ones to watch” and quotes “Spektre's productions consist of solid techno that really remembers the rave. Music that is cool but also fun and highly danceable. These guys are just going to get bigger"…

The natural progression is their label RESPEKT, with the first release due at the end of November and another three before Spring serving as a build up to their eagerly anticipated debut studio album, due for release in early 2010. 

Get ready to be inspired, exhilarated and enthralled. Get prepared for the next instalment and always, Expekt the unexspekted!!!
