Sunday Afternoon

Peace Makers (Extended Mix)

Pensa Poetico

Tresor resident DJs LNS and DJ Sotofett have for some years been developing a style at the club's Globus floor, and their new EP is a die cut of exactly the classic techno, electro, and house music they play. Here are no productions drenched in reverb, no hi-fi obsessions or generic algorithmic patterns – this is Globus Trax, the duo's third release on Tresor Records, four tracks consisting of real TR-909 workouts, rude and driving basslines, live runs through the mixing desk, and a Blake Baxter cover version with LNS on vocals. 
 
LNS & DJ Sotofett programmed an EP to perfectly fit their warehouse style of DJing, bringing out colour and variation in a spectrum more similar to a club compilation than a dogmatically reduced concept. With a single repeated vocal sample, Globus Trax opens bombastically with ClickClickClick, a dub-infused UK garage house track anyone in the world can easily describe in the course of a second.
 
Following this comes Gearbox which is a hefty slab of big room electro featuring a centerpiece arpeggio and the warmest harmonic pads on the EP's four tracks, which not-so-subtly makes reference to the pioneering band that shares a name with Globus and Tresor's home, the Kraftwerk. 
 
The house vibe returns on Destination 909, which is nothing but a manifesto for the TR-909, where the beloved drum machine's jacking beats meet galactic strings and synthetic bass, only to be ripped apart in a slamming break that sees the machine take centre stage as it cuts in-and-out of the mix, again a clear nod to the duo's sets in the club.
 
LNS steps up on vocal duties and DJ Sotofett keeps the 909 running for their final cut, taking a deeper dive into the realms of classic techno and paying tribute to "The Prince of Techno" Blake Baxter by covering his Reach Out originally released on Tresor Records in 1995.
 
The 12" was cut by DJ Sotofett himself at Manmade Mastering, where he resurrects the lost art of late-90s loud cuts with sonic presence and punch, optimal for the club-focused 12" format, and is the first to come in the new Tresor Sleeve, boasting an embossed logo on either side.

GiGi FM - Virgo Space Acid [SRN003]

Zero Idea is the solo project of Benji Fales, serving as a custodian of the past and curator for the future. A DJ and producer based in the sanctified streets of San Francisco, he is blurring the lines between reverence for tradition and the pursuit of innovation. Inspired by the American & UK House and Techno scenes of an earlier era--rooted in the philosophy that music should be experienced, not just heard. This ethos spans beyond just his music, but is also a through line of his event series DOMAIN.

Zero Idea champions the analog, upholding the legacy of vinyl in a world that continues to drift toward digital monotony. Music is a ritualistic act of defiance against sterile homogenized modernity and mainstream culture.

His sets are an alchemical fusion of funk-driven rhythms and the relentless, hypnotic drive of techno, crafting a soundscape that not only keeps the floor moving but elevates it. Each track is a subtle nod to the legends who first established vinyl as the heartbeat of underground dance culture.

Zero Idea's ability to capture the verve of his audiences has established him as an esteemed, and influential member of both the San Francisco, and larger American techno underground, resulting in a monthly residency on the distinguished independent radio station - HydeFM, and a prominent role as a resident DJ in the Vitamin1000 Energy Crew, a pacesetter in San Francisco’s electronic dance music community.

Production is at the heart of Zero Idea’s career, allowing him to be a meticulous architect of the ethos of his brand. His productions marry infectious funk grooves, and the hypnotic-sensibility of classic house and techno. Just like curating music, the production of it is his way of honoring the past and contributing to the present. Through an abundance of prolific self-releases and label releases, Zero Idea has earned his spot alongside the brightest newcomers in the underground techno scene. With DJ support from some of electronic music’s biggest names - Ben Sims, Dave Clarke, MoMa Ready, and salute; his productions are dance-floor approved, described as both “incisive, shapeshifting” and “viciously mechanical” (White Crate). Alongside studio-mates @@, BRICK, & Skiis--he has played a major role in developing the label Capp Street Project, providing forward-thinking collaborations directly from San Francisco’s mission district.

Pulse Finder and Zero Idea (Online Narcotics) organize the DOMAIN event series, showcasing veteran members of the techno scene intermixed with up-and-coming underground techno acts; such as 1morning, DJ Shufflemaster, DJ Warning, Freeman 713, Joey Beltram, Jay Denham, Max Watts, Madness Of (Kyruh & WTCHCRFT), Mesmé, Mike Dearborn, and Mina Mills among others.


"This mix travels through the many inspirations for my debut album Xpressions, which recently released on May 16th. The through line for both the mix and the album is fast and funky, iterating on the sonics from the days of opening up a technics 1200 and increasing the pitch range to +12 or +16, playing House and Techno records pitched up. There’s something special that happens to the micro rhythms of a slower tune and squeezing those spaces tighter without the digital artifacts of CDJ algorithms. The mix was recorded using my pair of 1200 MK2s and a XONE 92, straight to the point, no FX. Flux Aeterna is the perfect home for this mix, a series that puts on for the many talented artists in the Bay Area, where I was raised and still get to call home."

FLUX AETERNA 069: ZERO IDEA

Listen back to S3BA’s (@s_e_ba) set, recorded live from our last event at FOLD. The trans*disciplinary musician, artist, co-parent of MYTO and resident DJ for the Makaan record label and community played a beautiful set for us, shaped by spiralling melodies, wavey basslines and plenty of playful touches throughout.
