The last months I recorded a lot of sets, listened to it, analyzed them and decided over and over again to do it again. I started all that a year ago, so I know there’s a lot of room for improvement and high demands on myself but there’s nothing at the moment which is more fulfilling than thinking about music, curating tracks, play them and see if there’s a story noticeable and also practicing whenever I can to develop my skills and find my style. So this is just a status quo, but there are already a lot of drafts for other Techno but also Psy journeys - so stay tuned! - Tactile

Tactile - SQ002

This next one’s a very special B2B set from two of techno’s freshest talents. German/Dutch pairing Phil Berg and Lobster have emerged from their respective habitats masters of their art. From raves in both their homelands to releases on SK-eleven, HAYES, Room Trax and positivesource, as well as a shared residency for Vault Sessions that’s brought them here for Bassiani Podcast 210, the duo posit a deep and driving compound of high-voltage rhythms in their day-to-day praxis. Slamming techno that has claimed a rightful space among the greatest names of their generation. Layer by layer, an instinctive formulation of heaving basslines and delicate hi-hats balanced with utmost precision. It’s a seamless communion of complementary worldviews in respect to sound, a rich tapestry of ever morphing loops. It’s focus on gradual build, a slowly evolving chimera in lieu of schmaltzy instant gratification. This latest edition clocks in at three hours, a redacted version of their 12 hour set for the Vault Sessions night at Bassiani back in early February. Immersive and rolling, monolith techno that’s sure to set a higher bar for those who follow.

Our next mix is brought to us by London-based DJ and producer softi / @jazz_brown.  With an impressive catalogue of mixes from the likes of Crack Magazine, Animalia and Origins, and gigs such as Draaimolen and Freerotation, softi has found a place among the UK scene and beyond through her hypnotic, rhythmic sound.

This mix is a slow, super deep and sexy journey through progressive and trancey techno - thank you softi for this beautiful mix <3

Next in our mix series is our co-founder, Ekkel. From the studio, he delivers a fresh, modern take on ’90s Nordic electronic music—both mind-bending and progressive—diving headfirst into breaks and intricate percussive trips, whether as Ekkel or Alvar. Teo is deeply woven into the Ute-hemisphere, contributing to various musical constellations. With Solar Alliance (with Oprofessionell & Mikkel Rev), he crafts expansive live trance journeys, recorded and arranged in just days. As Ipeo (with Oprofessionell), he fuses ‘90s influences with contemporary twists to create mesmerizing soundscapes. Meanwhile, Accelerationism (with Marius Bø) are renowned for their marathon sets, regularly playing for hours on end. Teo has released several records on the Seoul-based record label, Junction Forest, that showcases his signature blend of groovy, deep and tech infused trance, further cementing his influence in the scene.

For the 100th anniversary episode Teo has put together a three hour odyssey with strictly his own unreleased material. This mix is a collaboration of sorts as Ekkel requested Marius Bø, the curator of the series, to go through his unreleased folders, select the tracks and order, before Ekkel would mix it all together. A journey from dark to light highlighting both the mental groove based parts of his output, to the more sensitive and dramatic.

Ahhhh, Fusion – you stole my heart once again!

I haven’t stopped smiling since my set on Sunday and I’m still full of joy and memories. Playing my very first live set to a packed Seebühne floor at Fusion was truly a dream come true 🥹

Thank you so much to everyone who came by and made this one of the best days of my life. I’m deeply grateful for all the beautiful souls who supported me over the past months while I was busy preparing my set – you know who you are!

A special thanks to the entire Seebühne crew for the beautiful stage and incredible artist care, and to @ju_nixe for your unwavering trust in my music, your motivation, and this opportunity.

All tracks are produced by myself and unreleased. Mastered by @haunted_water

Endless love,
