This is a mix set I recorded at home on my Pioneer XDJ-XZ stand-alone controller upon request from a podcast organization in France: Collation Electronique". I surely will add the ID's at some point one of them being from an absolute favorite the artist Henning Bear or the Dutch DRSSN a young woman active now for a good couple of years as a brilliant spiritual producer and Techno dj. 

The mix is a composition of Electro tracks and various Techno ones reflecting the political and cultural climate at that time : end 2022. Our scene had recently entirely re-opened and was very vulnerable and still unclear to the direction it would take. Also vastly dominated by social media influencer digital dj's that tipped the scale and resulted in the current struggle it now founds itself : large gap between the artists, dominance of certain trends, work ethics and work invested not being recognized and rewarded.

My preference will always go to the 'underdog" cheering for the one who put the work, respect the sound and the scene and does not fake with marketing tactics.
