NO POLICE + SASS.& PRESENT: SPACES

TORC
> Torc is the techno alias of Oscar Verlinden. In the studio it means exploring the grinding edge of sonic distortion, where sounds break down and become their true selves. On the dancefloor it means percussive, driving energy, sometimes uplifting and playful, sometimes deep and melancholic.

> Torc has been doing this for the better part of 15 years now, and is taking a new generation of producers with him on the journey on his Underdog YouTube channel. Now that dancefloors have re-opened he looks forward to getting in front of them again, uniting people in dark sweaty rooms, opening up portals in space and time with stroboscopic sound sculptures. It’s time – let’s go.

Torc set for SPACES

Vienna-born and raised producer Specific Objects has been part of the techno scene for almost a decade now. Ever since he began collecting records and attending raves in his early twenties, the urge to take part in a musical environment that promised an authentic sense of freedom led him to start producing club-ready techno in 2015 and picking up DJing soon after. After some very active years in the scene and becoming a resident DJ of the infamous Meat Market crew, his interest shifted to early 2000s- inspired, groove-based styles. 

Specific Objects’ fast-paced and driving tunes on his newly-founded label Twice Infinity speak to a new generation of ravers on the rise. And we’re absolutely hooked to his sound.

*The set originally aired on February 8, 2022 on https://lafaceb.live, a web-based radio station in Montreal, Canada, for the SPACES show run by artists No Police and SASS.et.

MISTINGO is a techno DJ from Brittany who has been in Montreal for 5 years now. He likes fast music, with a lot of syncopated rhythms and bewitching melodies. Of a rather curious nature, he proposes a musical content which could be qualified as sweet and bitter, by the eclecticism of his musical universe. He likes tracks with complex textures, unique and unconventional elements. He proposes acid and industrial tracks, but is in search of unique sounds. His mixing style is in line with his track selection, varied, energetic and very daring. 

He has a lot of inspirations, either through artists like DVS1, Mulero, Hadone, Jotnar, Blame the Mono, or through other artistic fields, like minimalist architecture, abstract art, or classical music and klezmer, his first contacts with the music world.
