Chami and OPH are a part-time double act with roots in Lyon and a more recent base in Berlin. Fully integrated in their local scene, the pair have expanded their love of records to furtive raves on the outskirts of town (Minijob). Under the moniker Face 2 Face they play very literally one in front of the other, with a four turntable, two mixer set up, dogged passion and a little faith that kismet will devise whatever sound it may. A mirror framework that cultivates subconscious dialogue between the two and their crowd by extension  Together they proffer a world that’s as stimulating as it is fast-paced; it’s deep, repetitive, ritualistic techno with a magnetic pull that’s hard to deny, at once cerebral and groovy. This twin flame has lit up floors from Paris’ La Station to Tokyo’s Womb, with a Bassiani performance back in October. Here, for a very special Bassiani Podcast 215, the duo band together once more and tell a 90 minute tale that twists and turns in unexpected ways, one that’s every bit the raw and potent sound they’re known for. Formidable techno that’s quick as a flash and doesn’t waste a second messing around.

After visiting the lakeside dreamland last year I couldn't help myself but imagine on the moment what I would play if I had the opportunity to perform there myself (as any DJ would, I guess). I had different archetypes of sets forming in the back of my mind for different times of the day possible, if the opportunity ever came one day. 
So when I got invited to play the opening of Floresta on Sunday, it first came as a bit of a surprise, but the surprise turned into excitement and it was time to prepare a special set where I could dig into my dub techno collection. 
So, I am very happy to share with you the recording of my set, where I finally had the chance to play slow, deep, dubby and sunny techno in such a setting. 
Thank you @wakinglifeportugal for the opportunity. 
I hope you enjoy !

Serial havoc-wreaker Amotik punches in this week with a hi-velocity two-hour round running the gamut from mind-expanding minimalism to claustrophobic dubs onto proper heavy-duty, industrial-informed big room wares. Unleashing wave after wave of unrelenting synth undulations and clinical basswork that'll send shivers down your spine, his set is pure techno NRG in a bottle. Ease yourself into Amotik's shape-shifting cyclonic architectures and doomed hi-tech atmospheres, the ride ahead ticks all the boxes of an entrancingly memorable sonic voyage. Lock in and lift off.

It’s back to Georgian turf with native talents NDRX and Newa. With complementing propositions for the techno genre, this prolific duo has been perfecting its b2b sets over years of collaborative work while fusing parallel sounds in a fruitful dialogue that’s now in its third run on the Podcast. As well as fundamental in establishing Tbilisi as a pin on the techno map, the two have selflessly encouraged the growth of talents in their own right: NDRX with his nurturing projects Stare at DJ and 11th Floor and Newa with the co-founding of Shin Records, an imprint that champions the best of her homeland’s talent. Berghain, Basement NYC, ADE Amsterdam, Fast Forward and Robert Johnson figure among the storied list of venues and events the pair have made appearances at, this alongside their long running residencies for Bassiani itself. The two have more than proved their mettle, and established themselves as prime representatives of Tbilisi techno at its strongest. For Bassiani Podcast 295, these pillars of Georgian electronics continue their ongoing partnership with a truly special edition. All beat no brakes, this is three hours of industrial sounds recorded live at the club in December.

Irish DJ and producer Mode_1 is our guest this week with a two-hour sonic cruise running the gamut from psychedelic post-industrial soundscapes to stripped-down brutalist grooves. Cutting a path of destruction across the dance floor, this mix is designed to have all ravers’ adrenaline levels topped out as they wait for the next bar’s own idiosyncratic thrill with blind obedience. Championing a sound both clinically crisp and entrancingly dynamic, Mode_1 is your guide for a deep dive across fractured 4x4 atmospheres and effervescing peak-time jousts. Leaving no stone unturned in his quest for the most hair-raising crescendo, there goes the Dublin whiz firing on all cylinders, ready to buckle knees by the dozen.
