Spekki Webu at Solstice 2023

Andy Martin (@andy-martin) is one of my favourite musical discoveries from the last few years. A while back, after hearing an iconic tune he made called "Revolution" featuring Lee Scratch Perry, I was excited about his music, and also learning more about him as an artist. Andy is based in Guadalajara, Mexico, with Jamaican and Mexican roots.

Whilst I was touring Mexico, we shared a few gigs together, and all the locals referred to him as "the best in the country", which I can completely understand. Since discovering Andy's music I've been hooked on his productions, an incredible fuse of old school and new school dub techno, underpinned by influences from his heritage which flourish in the form of exciting percussion & unique, emotional melodies. 

On top of this, Andy is very humble, and  a very talented DJ, and I'm super happy to host him in the series. 

If you haven't heard his music, go check it out! So much to discover

Thanks again Andy <3

Animix One Hundred & Sixty Two: Andy Martin

DJ set, recorded live on 17 Aug 2024 in Oslo for Harmony Rec label techno-focused night

Xiaolin @ Harmony Rec label night, Oslo 17/08/2024 (live recorded)

Recorded on the night of 29/8/24 for "Le Passeggiate Poetiche" at the Natural Monument of Campo Soriano (Terracina). I played my own music for a hundred people audience laying down under the stars; a special mention for the perfect Funktion One set up.

Distrikt—comprised of 宀 residents Jordy, Scott, and Justin—are undoubtedly making their mark in the city. In our opinion, they are Southeast Asia's newest aliens, sending signals across regional shores and bending the rules in their own way (as it should be!).

On their second-year anniversary night, they brought together a pairing of two familiar faces in the Asia region, both sharing a similar interest in running a record label, music with no boundaries, B-sides that could turn Hare Krishna into a bad boy, and finding witchcraft gems on YouTube.  
The results are in this recording—we’ll let the music speak for itself.

Archived at 宀 on June 22, 2024, using 2 Technics SL-1210M5G, 4 Pioneer CDJ 3000s, and an Allen & Heath Xone 96.

Enjoy the space ride!

Enter the wormhole with one of the techno artists we're most excited about in 2025.

Born in Osaka and now based in Tokyo, DJ MARIA. joins a decorated lineage of Japan's psychedelic elite, cut from a similarly explorative cloth as Wata Igarashi, Haruka and esoteric icons ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U and DJ Nobu. This nerdy sanctum of deep techno is a notoriously hard world to break into: only the very best make the grade. DJ MARIA.'s head-spinning sets emphasise why she's already part of the club firmament at home, and is now in the midst of a global breakthrough.

Her trademark is tapestries of acid, trance and techno that strike a perfect balance between vibrancy, impact and restraint. She bit the bug through a teenage discovery of DVDs showing legendary psytrance raves like Solstice and Vision Quest, yet it wasn't until 2014 that she started DJing, balancing gigs with shifts at Tokyo's Face Records and, as of late, motherhood.

Today, as well as producing and touring venues such as FOLD and Bassiani, she helps run two boutique forest festivals—Moment and Transcendence—both of which play a big part in upholding Japan's storied techno tradition. DJ MARIA. has reached these heights principally because of her exceptional talent as a DJ, which is on full display on this week's RA Podcast.

The two-hour mix is pure manna for psychedelic techno heads, though we're confident the depth of feeling, subtle pacing and seamless stitching will lure in fans from across the electronic spectrum. RA.971 is a total treasure—the latest wow moment from an artist destined to have a career littered with them.

Dj Maria. b2b Oceanic at Draaimolen Festival 2024

There’s a rhythm to how the festival unfolds. Thursday opens slowly, almost like a breath in. By Friday night, the pulse is stronger, but not too heavy. Monument festival had settled into its rhythm, and Kia and Polygonia stepped into the wooden dj-booth together.

The forest floor was vibrating, the crowd fully present. Their set matched the moment—playful, warm, and alive. It felt like Friday was always meant to sound like this. Varden became their playground.

This was more than a strong back-to-back. Two years earlier, they met here, both playing solo, both part of the Monument line-up for the first time. This night marked an anniversary of their friendship. From solo artists to close friends, now creating something special together.
