The latest entry to the Local Selection Mix Series welcomes Tipperary-born DJ and promoter OISINOK. The 712 resident has carved out a flaming mix filled with an array of fast-paced hypnotic and groove-infused techno from start to finish. Mesmerising stuff.

OISINOK is this week's latest offering to the Four Four Local Selection. Having firmly solidified himself as a formidable disc jockey in Ireland's thriving music scene over the last year, OISINOK has supported a range of high-profile artists such as Charlie Sparks, Paula Temple, Nico Moreno, Tommy Holohan, Cailín, blk., and Fjakk. Spanning right across the country which is nothing short of impressive for this dedicated young artist. Additionally, OISINOK is set to make his international debut in Ibiza for Reboot's Outset Festival at Eden Ibiza alongside blk. at the end of May.

With a style and sound that is entrenched in driving, murky techno territory he finds himself firing from all cylinders with this beefy recording. OISINOK takes no prisoners with this hour of power as he includes a variety of pacey kicks, sharp cuts and eerie synths throughout with a range of tracks from Undivulged, Alberto Tolo, Erik Burka, Infiltrator, Zisko and more. Stick this on. It will not disappoint.

Local Selection 252: Viki Dos Santos

This week’s Local Selection comes from JUSTDYL, who melds deep and gritty dubby cuts with fluorescent Balearic sun-kissed grooves, toeing the line between glossy progressive house and head-down rave energy.

Hailing from North Dublin, JUSTDYL has been embedded in music culture since his early teens. Now 24, his decade-long involvement with DJing has shaped a sound that’s as instinctive as it is considered. A dedicated digger with an ear for detail, he’s spent years refining a style that moves fluidly across genre lines. Effortlessly weaving through progressive, techno, house and the spaces in between.

This mix is a snapshot of the club sound that resonates most with him. Playful, propulsive, and rich in progression. “I didn’t want to overthink it,” he says. “It’s just a sound I love, and something that reflects what I enjoy playing out.”

What results is a set that feels natural, intuitive, music for dancers and deep listeners alike. It bridges past and present with an ear turned toward movement, progression, and vibe. “I feel this mix represents a glimpse of some of the stuff I love to play while also capturing a progressive sound in music from the past.”

Local Selection 267: JUSTDYL

The next entry to the Local Selection Mix Series welcomes Kildare-based DJ and producer Cian Fox. For this installment, Cian provides us with an hour of no nonsense techno. Ranging right across the spectrum from stripped back to driving cuts within the genre.

Cian Fox has begun to spark attention among the local and international dance scenes in recent years, with the 20 year old earning a slot on the acclaimed live-streaming platform Pattern Berlin, while garnering support slots for Dylan Fogarty, Jon10 and Puzzy Wrangler within a relatively short period. This success has led him to play for some exciting local parties such as The Shed Residents, Crush and Oblivion.

These opportunities without a doubt, are linked to Cian's fine discography that he has built. Releasing multiple EPs on his SoundCloud, along with releases on Blurr, Fast Dogs and U-Traxx, has allowed him to express his vision for techno, while connecting with like-minded listeners. In particular, he has received notable support from Reformist and Remco Beekwilder, who has given his productions the seal of approval from playing at various gigs and radio shows.

This mix further outlines his idea of techno, one that is rooted in the past that also takes aim at the future. Elegantly curated and mixed, this is an exceptional recording for any avid techno connoisseur. Even more so for an artist who is at the beginning of what could very well be a long and exciting journey in dance music.
