Switzerland-via-Germany artist Rødig unveils his debut album, Human Machine, on his Shojiki label. It will be released on double-coloured vinyl and digitally on March 6, 2025.

Rødig’s cohesive and nuanced ‘Human Machine’ extended player balances moods and grooves, demonstrating his sound design skills and mastery of rhythmic syncopation. 'Artificial Interaction’ starts with scuffed-up kicks and dubby chords, creating a body-popping groove laced with gritty pads. Field recordings and live performance elements have been incorporated into the album on tracks like 'Breather,' where SOD-90's live flute and Rødig’s melodies add lush emotional layers.

Elsewhere, Rødig’s 'Catch Me If You Can' is a playful fusion of wispy cosmic melodies and well-swung drums with retro video game leads and 'Echoing Heartbeat' is a dense and kinetic rhythm with warped synths and tight percussive beats. The title track is a thumping but warm techno sound with a mischievous melodic edge, and 'Instinct' brings rock-solid techno loops and spaced-out ambient pads over a darkened bassline. 'Mode 174' is a synth scape that transforms into a deep techno roller before 'Update Cancelled' brings pressurised drums and razor-sharp percussion to a grainy, compelling groove.

Inspired as much by 90s Detroit as he is by modern-day sounds, Otium Records member and Shojiki founder Rødig has released a slew of tracks on both labels since the project’s inception in 2019. He now unveils his first full-length release for Shojiki,  the double vinyl ‘Human Machine’ LP with eight tracks and four handy DJ tools already been supported by Boris, Ben Sims, and Laurent Garnier.

DLR Premiere: Rødig - Artificial Interaction [SHOLP001]

Rødig - Human Machine [SHOLP001]

In a not-so-distant universe, where the relentless march of technology had eclipsed the beat of human hearts, there exists a creature of paradox¬, a fusion of man and machine, soul and circuitry. This enigmatic figure stood against the mechanized monotony that had enveloped this world.

Mechanical limbs pulsating with the rhythm of a forgotten time, a symphony of human emotion echoing through a cold, metallic shell. It called itself ‘‘the human-machine’’.

Driven by an insatiable thirst for expression, The Human-Machine embarked on a quest to defy the dictates of this new society, to breath life into the sterile confines of its world.

Hunted by those who sought to silence its remanence of humanness, The Human-Machine found solace in the company of a kindred spirit, a fellow outcast, who like it, was bound by the desire to break free from the shackles of conformity.

For in the heart of even the most desolate machine, the spark of humanity still burned bright. Even in the darkest of times, the music of the soul would always find a way to shine through.

-------------------------------

‘’Every track starts as a conversation with myself; sometimes others just happen to listen.’’

Rødig creates with emotion and precision as his fuel. His music is less about style than intention, pursuing honesty through sound.
After years in Berlin refining his craft, he returned to Switzerland with a clearer vision, letting instinct guide where genre once did. From echoes of UK Garage to the pulse of techno, the warmth of house, breaks, and ambient, his path has been shaped by artists whose work carries soul and individuality. It’s those qualities that push him toward his own sense of uniqueness.

His first LP, ‘Human Machine’, and latest EP, ‘Soft Resistance’, on his label Shojiki Records trace this evolution, a movement toward creative freedom and truthfulness. 

Alongside Otium, Rødig continues to organise events where music is not made to impress, but to connect and be free.
As both a mixing and mastering engineer, he approaches sound with the same care and precision he brings to his art, intentionally shaping it until it feels alive and vibrant.

Born in Switzerland and shaped by the beats of UK Garage, Dubstep, and Drum’n’Bass, Rødig found his true calling in techno while studying architecture at university. Realising his passion for music, he relocated to Berlin, the beating heart of techno, where he immersed himself in refining his sound.
