DJ firebrand Takaaki Itoh has come a long way since his early days of Detroit-influenced techno and parties in northern Japan. Without compromising anything in the way of quality his appeal has grown exponentially. Like a musical surgeon, his approach relies less on sweeping gestures and more on small millimetric cuts and tweaks that slowly ramp up the mood and leave the listener with sound that is at turns growling, mystical and amorphous. Bassiani Podcast 105 is a monolithic, trance-inducing opus from the land of the rising sun.

Over the past two decades, @djnobu_bitta’s name has become synonymous with Japanese techno; his deep yet hard-hitting sets consistently transfix the global underground. Alongside a blazing On Cue mix, the Bitta label boss tells James Gui about the lasting influence of his hardcore punk background, his Omega Point noise project, Future Terror parties, and inspiring the next generation of artists to lead with compassion

Interview

On Cue: DJ Nobu

From London’s inner suburbs comes this next guest, a through and through veteran of UK techno whose touch has left a lasting mark on the world around him. Steve Bicknell’s early days were spent in the intoxicating worlds of dub, reggae, acid, DIY warehouse parties and pirate radio, an auspicious mix of references that would inspire him to make music of his own. After a string of residencies at the UK’s then most influential parties, he launched his own series with creative collaborator Sheree Rashit: LOST. These legendary gatherings brought together names like Plaid, Jeff Mills, Juan Atkins, Robert Leiner, Basic Channel, and a wider array of future techno hegemons. This was swiftly succeeded with the duo’s launch of imprint Cosmic Records, whose triumph went on to spawn another three successors: LOST (early provider of Bicknell’s dancefloor sounds), Clubtracks (for Chicago-leaning fare) and ID(entity) (a channel for the work of well established music-makers who wanted to release under a secret alias). A nine-year pause in productions came to a halt in the mid 2010s with Steve’s most recent label, 6dimensions, an exploration in sound and the whole spectrum of human emotion. Finally, 2017 saw Steve team up with Luke Slater and David Sumner under the LSD sobriquet, a force for the creation of ‘lysergic machine music’, heavily danceable stuff (just ask ADE, Dekmantel, Awakenings). With a story as full and enduring as Steve’s there’s much to pull from, and only experience in the flesh could attest to the depth and scope of his musical evolution, but it’s clear that the voice he has honed has only become louder and more refined. It’s a techno that’s fully embodied, a blistering percussive barrage that invokes something profoundly human and fundamental. Bassiani Podcast 217 is just a taste of what Steve has to offer, a window onto a world of sound he’s meticulously crafted for over three decades: masterfully layered and piercing sounds that shimmer and relentlessly rise in lockstep with a formidable 4/4 beat.

Celebrating our 600th podcast in proper massive fashion, we’re no short of psyched to welcome the man, the legend James Ruskin for a much anticipated two-hour round of implacable warehouse-sized dance floor obliteration. Ever since he first stepped into the scene in 1991, the Croydon-born and based groove doctor has been dishing out some of the most impressively rugged and haunting uptempo material with uncompromising poise and style. From Tresor to his own seminal record label, Blueprint, which still leads the way in terms of both grade A curation and time-transcending impact, Ruskin keeps writing the future of techno with unadulterated spirit, as attested by his RYC transmission, fusing the finest of techno’s potential for abstract-leaning sonic exploration and riotous rhythmic firepower. As we inexorably ram in deep into tomorrow’s full-fledged dystopia all guns blazing, be sure to turn this on full blast.

All hardware. All improvised. You can hear the music being created and destroyed as it's happening live in the moment. 
This music is truth, and truth is healing.
