It’s not a very unusual thing for our podcast series to have someone as a pair. For b2b or just as a project – check even the previous mix, it was made by Brawther AND Tristan Da Cunha. But – a married couple of DJs – and not just DJs, but good ones, is still a rare thing on the scene. [continue reading at...https://trommelmusic.com/music/trommel-176-shakolin-karine/]

∄ ANNIVERSARY COUNTDOWN ④ TOFUDJ

Following gigs at Hoppetosse and an impressive podcast for Item, the French-German, Super Venus, caught our ear with her patient approach and under-the-radar selections.

Gaining a reputation for being able to play any time of night, there's a distinct personality to her records; a fusion of downtempo, breaks and techno rooted deeply in the raw sounds of the 90s.

DJ Masda is a seasoned selector renowned for his deep excursions in house and techno. Born and raised at the foot of Mount Fuji, his path has taken him out from the shadow of the sacred mountain, through Osaka, and placed him firmly in the nerve centre of European techno, Berlin. He made his first steps in the 90s, spinning expertly chosen vinyls and developing a keen ear for subtler details that quickly got him noticed. In the decades since, he’s been busy building a body of work that includes playing at some of the world’s most revered venues and running his very own label and club series Cabaret with So Inagawa. Under their imprint,  he’s primarily focused on giving a platform to friends, those with whom he shares a personal connection and whose music brings something fresh and fun to the label; this fraternity of musical souls are hard at work to bring the very best of the Cabaret sound to market. Here, Masda’s own signature mix is made manifest for Bassiani Podcast 199: a patiently crafted three-hour dive into eerie electro, bouncy house, even a peppering of Italo nostalgia, recorded live at Horoom’s season close last July. A perfect end to summer and a perfect start to a new year, an act that’ll be hard to follow.

Dave Harvey live from Outburst on Friday evening at Houghton 2024.

Recorded at Houghton - Dave Harvey (2024)

@eli-verveine is a musical chameleon who can do it all from banging peak time sets to pensive warm-ups via weird and wonderful hour hours sessions. She has proven that over the years in many of the scene's most cultured clubs whether playing solo, B2B as Among Trees with Andrey Pushkarev or live with Gwenan as Gin & Tonic. On top of all this, she has a well-formed discography that delves further into her versatile sounds.

This week's mix reflects her musical malleability as she draws on plenty of diverse tempos and textures to craft a lively trip. There are moments of blissful deepness next to more nuanced rhythms, futuristic bass explorations and cosmic electro sojourns that keep things moving at pace, but always with great control and expert selections.
