Philippa Pacho is back on Bassiani airwaves for Podcast 178. The dynamic artist behind positivesource and STHLM Murder Girls knows a thing or two about setting a crowd in motion. Her shapeshifting beats and unmatched energy fast making her a household name far outside her native Sweden and more recent Berlin base. Her residency at Stockholm mainstay Under Bron is about a decade old, but there’s not even so much as a suggestion of hesitancy or weariness in her work, carrying a passion that’s infectious, and as palpable in a club as it is on screen (check out her recent sets on Hör). Her Techno really is powerful stuff, a sustained sonic onslaught, an unyielding beast, hulking and formidable but also smart. For many DJs whose sound is so heavily reliant on bass to carry forth their message, a slip into monotony wouldn’t be entirely unpredictable, but Philippa’s cunning use of supporting effects and melody keeps even a 6 hour journey like this one interesting from start to finish. This up and coming doyenne of loop Techno really is a force like no other.

A1. Z.I.P.P.O - We Need One Another

Back in the series with a special hour-and-a-half-long live set, fellow RYC alum Arthur Robert graces us with a mix that best exemplifies his cosmonautical approach to production, flush with alien-engineered sounds and sci-fi-indebted atmospheres. Like traversing a dynamic hall of mirrors and prisms, distorting our cognitive scope to hypnotic effect, Robert’s mix is a maze of fast swiveling grooves and bubbling, modular-like reflections. If you like your techno both hi-velocity and uncompromisingly trippy, Robert’s blends extrapolate the finest of galloping techno and outer-spacey poetics, birthing the kind of transporting narrative that’ll sooth your nerves from the daily heartbreak we’ve come to process as an integral part of our lives.

Reclaim Your City 631 | Arthur Robert Live

The Hunab Ku crew is excited to present the first LIVE SET from their "mad member to show his power! Enjoy!! KAWAAAA BOOOOOOONGAA!!" Born in Lugano, Switzerland, Jakopo Zanini, aka J-Ack, began DJing at 16 (2008) at small amateur parties in the Ticino woods with his Psy Prog project. By 18, seeking growth beyond Ticino, he joined Creative Jungle Records in Milan, playing alongside artists like Yatzee, Biomekaniks, and Brainstalker. Over the next 13 years, he shared stages with renowned names like Ace Ventura, Cosmosis, and Rinkadink, performing at top festivals, including Psy-Fi in 2015.  In 2019, Jakopo launched his production project, KAWABOONGA, and co-founded Padma Renaissance Tribe with friends Fabio Arreghini (Mindwhell) and Ferdinando Quero (Masterkaos), organizing events and working as an audio and lighting technician. Their efforts brought top-tier artists like U-Recken and Avalon to Ticino, furthering Jakopo’s passion for music and event creation.  In 2023, KAWABOONGA debuted at multiple Italian festivals and a Tunisian event, where Jakopo joined Hunab Ku Records as a live artist. He also signed with Pulsonique Records and Merkaba Crew, the latter hosting him at Taurus/Atlas Connection Festival.  Jakopo continues to pursue his dream, producing his signature "Hitech non-Hitech" music at 180 BPM and collaborating with artists like Dayalix, Bipolar, and SwoopaLoops.

PARA HALU 'Psychedelic Resonance' | Exclusive for RadiOzora / 01/03/2025

Having made a name for himself through a string of choice releases for the likes of Nous’klaer and Delsin, Dutch producer Konduku has been turning heads with his ever innovative take on the techno medium. Pushing for new directions, Konduku’s been laying down intriguing blends of dubbed-out, Afro-infused grooves and plural strains of abstract-leaning, breaks-friendly hybrids. The present mix showcases the breadth of his influences and essential components, extrapolating techno’s genre-transcending nature through a fine mix of heavily verbed-out electronics and shape-shifting buildup, never quite going where you’d expect it, rather seeking the excitement of suspenseful arcs and unsuspected developments. Bold as it should.

A few months after our successful Saüle debut, here we go again for a second round of genre-busting, boundary-pushing sonic exploration. Embracing the Idea of techno as a means of transcending our condition, both as conscious and subconscious beings, this series offers a platform for artists to express themselves with enhanced scope and purpose. For this second installment which will take place on 5 June, RYC invites a trio of musicians who’ve been pushing the envelope of techno and electronics to a broader extent. A name synonymous with bold dynamics and cutting-edge approach, London-based producer Jin Synth will take us on a mind-bending ride down her intricate rhythmic algebra and layers of hypnotic, otherworldly sonics. A jack-of-all-trades whose hybrid, unhindered vision for music has driven to all ends of the techno spectrum, the one and only DJ Pete will join us for a hectic parade of breaks-laden, bass-heavy weapons and dubbed-out tangents. Chief explorer of lushly textured folds and immersive cinematic arcs, dub techno maestro Magna Pia will take over the decks for one of those moments on the dance floor when functional innovation fuses with multi-sensory exaltation.

AZRIN | Merkaba Music Series Ep. 65 | 23/05/2025

Half of boundary-pushing production outfit Voices From The Lake and co-founder of Spazio Disponibile, Neel is an Italian producer with a keen ear for complex, enveloping sonics; his ample, elegant pieces of music sitting right at the junction of beatless abstraction and intricate webs of electronic pulsations. Boasting his works’ most dynamic side, Neel’s debut transmission on RYC ushers us into a smouldering pit of molten steel and glassy membranes. Playing with echoes and latency as he builds his own multi-sensory experience out of eclectic fragments, Neel transports us to a zone where movement and inertia rule in concerted harmony, and your suddenly weightless body feels eventually free from today’s iteratively chaotic burden. Uplifting.
