Today I have the pleasure to present another fellow as a guest out of the deep and dubby gengres, who put such a lovely selection on the plates:  Dj Rick Fox from Zurich, Switzerland

Rick started to dj in 1997 as Dj Re-Chi. 2002 he build the partylabel MINIM with some Dj friends, and they`ve entered the legal+illegal party scene and also the famous club Dachkantine in Zurich. After the closing of the Dachkantine the partylabel MINIM splitted up and Rick went for a year to Barcelona. He came back and started a new job, which allowed him to buy a lot of records, but not to go out on the weekends. So he focused more in music-production. In 2014 he released his first digital EP on his own label Enara records and started to play and produce as Rick Fox. In May 2016 he released his first vinyl-only record on Enara ltd. Many digital releases followed and are still coming. Sometimes you can here him djing House or Techno at smaller parties, still vinyl only. He released on this labels so far: Enara Rec,  Insectorama Netlabel Rec, Superordinate Rec, Ecoul SND, Telrae, Piranha Siberia Dub, Crossfade Sounds, Techenie, MLD Compilation, D. Junction, Skylift Rec, Velvet Dub Collective...and the journey will continue.

Guestmix Armin Bender

Bruno Bleckmann – born and raised in the Rhinish brown coal district and now based
in Düsseldorf after studying German language and literature – is an up-coming
artist from a city that has already produced many electronic legends. After his first
technoid awakening experiences in the old Tresor in Berlin at Chris Liebing's
shamanistic Easter Sunday gigs, inhaling the razor-sharp rhythms of The Advent and
devoting himself to the harmonies of the epochal The Aztec Mystic project, Bruno
Bleckmann began to create his own sound art. This was followed by international
releases on Ohm Series, Vuo Records and Ausblick. As a connoisseur of literature,
Bruno Bleckmann knows how to develop a long-lasting narrative quality not only in
his own tracks, but also in his DJ sets. Go there - or go home!

Tracklist:
1)   Round Five Feat. Tikiman – Na Fe Throw It (Main Steet 10)

Some personal words:
My music taste was shaped by living in many countries. Growing up in Moscow, Russia, my journey began as a child with a rare vinyl collection inherited from my dad. Later, after spending a third of my life in Dubai and a few years in the Cayman Islands, I embraced different cultural traditions of local sound. 
My obsession with dub techno began in my teenage years when I accidentally got a vinyl of Maurizio M7. Heavily influenced by labels like Chain Reaction, M_nus, Staalplaat, and others, I have been exploring the depths of dub techno, deep, and minimal ever since.

My next guest for MLD is Marie Claire Marshall who recently crossed my way through...actually can't remember exactly how it came to this interesting chat via social media. 
Since then we are in a kind contact and it was clear I would ask Claire for a guestmix for my mld channel. 

Straddling the worlds of sound design, academic historico-musicology, and electronic music has given Claire a unique perspective on sound manipulation and curation. 

Claire has been showcasing composition work and DJing to audiences in Europe and North America for over 25 years. By combining influences from socially interesting cities into electronic work, the result is a varied and texturally rich interpretation of the world around us. Recently work has also been influenced by other alternative and leftfield producers to create an eclectic repertoire of both electronic and acoustic arrangements for installations, museums & multi-sensory projects.

Claire is able to weave a unique sonic aesthetic; blending edits, textures and cerebral  with ease and fluidity.
Having been drawn to the historio-musicological and cultural importance of the legacies of Detroit and Chicago, her work is heavily influenced by the diversity of pioneering sounds reflected in their political and cultural roots. 

Claire's production work is in collaboration with Andrew Byrne, and together, they are Magnetik Source: Defying genres through electronic music"
Great to have you on my channel with this  unique mix, Claire!!

Claire Marshall for MLD

This set is the live modular play from [moosdohmen], who was part of my event experiment on Aug 30th 2025 we did with headphone set-up as silent sessions, that's why I called it MLD goes silent, to bring some Moments of Light 'n Darkness (MLD) to the surface in this frame.

It took place at a nice Café called Krumm&Schief in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg who lend us their nice venue. The set comes with deep frequencies, loads of experimental ambient parts and repeating hypnotic loops with a very calming vibe while you can loose yourself and finally surrender. 

So it's absolutly worth to have a listen back from time to time, for recovery, to imerge yourself into music, fokus on your breath, practise some selfcare and leave the world outside. 
Thank you so much, Maurice, always supporting my projects in your humble way. It's so much appreciated! 💯@moosdohmen

Dub, Techno, Dark Drones and other experimental stuff - mixed in a certain kind of emotional expressing way...packed in a mix series called "Moments of Light n Darkness" (MLD). Open space for guest mixes. 
any requests: saiberlin@posteo.de
for my new project "extendes living room" - my traumasensitive sound enviromenmts with unreleased track experiments and some personal insides about them, check out my discord. (see link below)

I have experienced a lot of different electronic types and styles during my musical biography which began in the 8oies as a teen with Postpunk and dark wave and develloped further with Ska, Reggae, Jungle, Drum 'n Bass and Techno. Reggae and the Jamaician Soundsystem Culture had also a big influence to me, after visiting Jamaica for two times at the end of the 90ies...

Dubtechno became a very special role to me cause of its introvert meditative attitude which fits very good to me now in the present time.

So music is much more than entertainment to me and shaped my personality by getting much energy from it.
And this is something, what I want to bring over in my diverse and genres overarching mixes.

P.S.: I distance myself from any extremist ideas and religious or political brainwashing attitudes. As well as stigmatization of any kind. I do this to the best of my knowledge and belief.
