Parisian – Benales has been honing his skills since the end of the 90s with impeccable taste and steady determination. 
As an avid record collector, vinyl only DJ and enthusiast of Techno and House – his DJ sets and tracks combine the raw, dark and deep elements of these musical forms with a firm nod in the direction of Detroit. 
His talent allows him to put himself in many clubs in Europe like Tresor, Rex Club, Le sucre, The Gate (Georgia)... but also as a regular guest of Concrete when it’s not rare to find Benale

CLOSERcast #051 - BENALES

Proudly collaborating with @jamrtbf for a monthly broadcasting of a DJ set recorded at C12, after which the recording can be found on our Soundcloud profile.

Initial Code performed at C12 on January 27th 2024, alongside Peter Van Hoesen live, Emily-Jeanne and Sara Dziri.

Genuinely contemporary selections, acute understanding of sound and performance, as well as consistent event promotion and extensive music journalism, Initial Code’s work in the Belgian techno scene and beyond have been unignorable since 2018.

Experienced for his age already, Initial Code’s DJ sets and live performances have seen him play the most reputed clubs and events in his country as well as debuting in Paris and Berlin both under his own direction and as invitee. This is the fruit of heavy activity in the techno scene since his beginnings as his love for music has been expressed from almost all possible angles.

Behind the decks and in the studio, Initial Code’s sound retains the depth of tunneling, mental techno expressing pace and effect. Contemporary in style, his early influences lie in more hypnotic, psychedelic techno.

For episode 25 of Structure Series Invites, we have the Co-founder, Curator and Resident of FOLD. Founder of FOLD Records and founder of IMPRFCT. Records - VOICEDRONE. 

Lasha Jorjoliani is an often unreadable enigma, lending much of his time to his studio, curating line-ups and sharpening his performances in the booth. Although an undeniable figurehead of the scene, Voicedrone is by no means explicitly tied to co-founding FOLD. 

Four years on, Lasha is in an indestructible one-way lane, having developed a graphic, dynamic sound that we come together to experience. At his core is a passion to create and nurture community; this purpose is channelled into every event he plays - here at home, in Europe and beyond. Playing at influential venues and parties including his beloved UNFOLD has preserved his significance in the underground scene and his constant admiration from the FOLD family.

The phrase “leading by example” may be somewhat overused, but in the case of Voicedrone, such a statement is entirely appropriate.

As always please show your love and support to the artist involved.
