When Smoke Machine started doing parties in Taipei, and then created a revered online mix series, it was clear that it was the work of someone with impeccable taste. That would be Diskonnected, once a resident at the beloved Taiwan club Korner who now posts up at Pawnshop and 宀 in Hong Kong. He's also behind Organik, a festival that takes place on the coast of Taiwan and has become one of the world's top techno gatherings in just over a decade.

True to his alias, the elusive artist likes to switch off from the world. He rarely makes his presence known online, sparingly accepting press and mix requests. He's not one to seek attention—in fact, he actively avoids it—but there's a spotlight on him regardless.

Everything Diskonnected does is executed with patience and class, but don't mistake that for restraint. His style of weightless techno shimmers with the spirit of nature, moving with aerodynamic force. On his RA Podcast, we hear a six-hour all-night set recorded at 宀 earlier this year, keeping an open-ended view of techno as it barrels on, gradually getting faster all the while. It's clichéd to say that if you know you know, but truly, anyone who knows about Diskonnected knows that he's one of the world's greatest techno DJs, with a style and flair that feels both old-school—or maybe just late '00s—but also cutting-edge.

RA.904 Diskonnected

For the tenth installment of New Palm’s seasonal mix series, we’re honored to invite @diskonnected - one of our favorite selectors, our recent guest in LA, resident at Hong Kong’s famed 宀 club, and the mastermind behind Taiwan’s Smoke Machine @smokemachinetaipei series. 

We have long been fans of Diskonnected since locking in to his extended sets on the shores of Hualien at Smoke Machine’s flagship Organik festival a decade ago. Hearing his sound both hone in and expand out over the years since has been a continual source of inspiration for us and a big influence on the kinds of sounds we gravitate towards. 

We’re pleased to present Diskonnected’s mix of left-field ambient, experimental, and downtempo, recorded live at a chill-out night at Taipei’s Pawnshop @pawnshoptaipei in 2021. Thank you for sharing this with us 🙏

We trust it will hold up to repeat listens, and hope the moods within will be a fitting soundtrack for the changing season 🤲 Enjoy ~
