Altinbas x Border One - Awakenings Upclose 2024

More than just MORD boss and a direct neighbour, both musically and geographically speaking, Bas Mooy is a longstanding friend to us, as well as a figure we truly look up to. Whether found pushing back the boundaries of the techno sound through his vanguard-minded imprint or teleporting dance floors to the 4th dimension with no turning back, Bas holds on to his quality-driven methods to deliver music and moments that transcend both time and space. Up with three hours of sprawling techno heat that runs the gamut from proper big-room artillery to abstract-leaning bravura, through strapping peak-time nemesis and dystopian raw power, here goes Mooy with the wildest instance of his 360 vision when it comes to blazing new paths and setting future directions for the genre. Weapon of mass instruction.

Reclaim Your City 630 | Bas Mooy

"Compared to my last two mixes, which explored introspective travels with layered textures and evolving phases, this one goes straight for the dance floor. I wanted to channel something more extroverted and built for movement. It strips back to the essentials with a 4x4 pulse, raw body music, and a strong rhythmic drive that carries everything forward without holding back."

Olivia Mendez is a vinyl-only DJ, selector, and curator whose sets weave deep, minimalistic techno. Her sound is rooted in rhythm—shaped by her early years as a percussionist and dancer, and refined through a deep immersion in London’s underground scene between 2006 and 2011.

A passionate digger with a background in music journalism and event curation, Olivia approaches her sets as narrative journeys—sonorous, layered, and emotionally resonant. From Brooklyn to Kiev, she’s queered consciousness through sound, creating dancefloors that pulse with tension, release, and intent.

She is the founder of KONVENT, a FLINTA collective dedicated to reshaping feminist discourse through site-specific music and art interventions, and launched her own label, Dust in Grooves. Alongside Chami, she co-runs DIG Curated, a cross-disciplinary platform spotlighting underground sound, visual art, and community-driven projects.

Now based in Berlin, Olivia continues to explore the intersections of activism, art, and sound—smashing the patriarchy, one beat at a time.

Known for creating sonic spaces where rhythm meets emotion, Isabel Soto brings a mix that feels both intimate and expansive. Her selections unfold gradually —percussive, textural, and deeply immersive— guiding the listener through a world that’s as physical as it is introspective.

Step inside her sound 📡

PoleGroup Radio - Isabel Soto 18.06.2025

@philippapacho is like a musical Swiss knife: she has exactly the right tool for every occasion, from warm-ups to peak time to wonky afters. It was a long residency at Under Bron in her native Stockholm that equipped her with those skills, and since moving to Berlin, she's gone on to make her mark across Europe playing all forms of techno. Late last year, Pacho launched her own label Phorum Records as a further extension of her sound, and she also curates tracks and parties under the Positive Source banner.

This August, Pacho joins us at Amsterdamse Bos for Dekmantel 2025 but first serves up this deeply cerebral trip into Millsian techno. It's a high-speed selection of sleek and synth-laced sounds rich in narrative, be that mind-melting urgency, more dark and moody undercurrents or a sense of cosmic unknown. Utterly timeless and effortless classic, this is techno in its most futuristic form.

Voight-Kampff Podcast - Episode 96 // Miran N

We are ecstatic to introduce to you our new series FUSE, in which we will bring you mixes and live sets recorded exclusively for Natural Selection, from a selection of our residents, past guests and other closely affiliated artists and friends. Each mix or set will be accompanied with a profile on the artist responsible, highlighting their career, upcoming projects, etc. We feel in the current climate it is crucial to unify and fuse together our artists and supporters and we are so happy to be able to continue to provide a platform for music, whilst we are forced into this lockdown situation. Thank you to everyone involved for bringing this together and making it possible.

Kicking off the series is none other than Jeroen Search (Figure, Dynamic Reflection), one of our favourite all-time artists and who we had the absolute pleasure of playing for us back in 2018. The Dutchman is one of Techno’s most influential producers, but is also a well-kept public secret. Putting out consistently high quality music since the mid nineties, he is always right at the sharp end of the Techno spectrum. Keeping him there are the slick beats he releases on his own genre-defining label Search, as well as those on Figure, Dynamic Reflection and many others. Given his always refreshing output, he has seen no need to completely reinvent himself and instead keeps on putting out his always timeless Techno, spellbinding audiences with his expertly crafted DJ sets and truly inspirational live sets, and claiming his space at the table of the absolute cutting edge of Techno. This exclusive DJ set for Natural Selection is entirely made up of material from himself and his long-standing label 'Search' and we feel honoured to have him involved in the series and bring you this unheard masterpiece.

FUSE - Jeroen Search (Figure, Dynamic Reflection)

If you’re into techno for its unique melange of jacking intensity, multi-faceted atmospherics and emotions-stirring climaxes, we stake the house you’ll love Arthur Robert’s sound. Hot on the heels of a much promising debut EP on Figure, the Vienna-born / Amsterdam-based producer stops by to deliver a proper finely constructed, slo-blooming flower of a mix. Exclusively comprised of personal, mostly unreleased tracks from the vaults, this one will ease you into a state of blissful daze and utter oneiric delight right away. Feels aplenty.
