Last month, WOEIFM invited me to play for their monthly show on @operator.radio. I took the opportunity to create a New Beat special because, as a New Beat lover, I've always wanted to do that! 

Belgian New Beat, often just called New Beat, was an underground subculture and music scene that thrived in Belgium during the 1980s and 1990s. It was especially prominent in Antwerp and Brussels, and eventually gained widespread popularity across Western Europe.


I also added some interview snippets from back in the day.

New Beat Special @ Operator - 26th June 2024

Some words by Paty:

‘Italorator is definitely one of my favorite shows right now. It’s a great honour to record this mix with some of what I consider classics, whether they are older or newer productions. 

I love classics, and it’s rare to find a space where you feel 100% comfortable to dive in and present your favorites from that time. There’s always a hidden gem here and there, and for me, Italorator is the new atlas for discovering them. Many thanks to Marsman and Operator for creating this space, which is so necessary to keep the movement alive and to give us the opportunity to share and learn with every new show. 

I dedicate this mix to my mom - she always loved new wave, Italo, and classic ‘80s songs. I remember when I was little, she would always put on those video cassette/DVD compilations, and I was hypnotized watching all the beautiful (and dramatic) video clips, always wanting to go back in time to live that era. I guess she has no idea how much influence this had on what I do. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy it.’

TOGETHER ALONE avec Augustus Muller & Curses - 08 Février 2025

Today, we’re excited to invite our friend DJ Torso to join us in celebrating our gig at Soundit this Saturday, alongside Jennifer Cardini, Marcel Dettmann, and our label boss, Adrian Marth.

DJ Torso first discovered electronic music while dancing to the rugged sounds of the Asturias electronic tradition, his local region. As he began mixing, he gravitated toward slower rhythms, effortlessly blending genres like EBM, electro, new beat, and dark disco. Now, he’s making waves in the Spanish underground scene with sets that fuse driving body music, solid four-to-the-floor techno, and syncopated electro patterns. Rooted in the energy of the dancefloor, his sound strikes a balance between darkness and intensity, with melodies and atmospheres inspired by ’80s wave music.

Only Us unfolds the struggle between self doubt and the pressure to be perfect. It moves through the restless feeling of time slipping away, only to reveal that none of it was wasted. Moody and hypnotic, the track invites you to lean into those moments of uncertainty and emerge with a deeper sense of clarity.
