Nakamo's hypnotic sound effortlessly navigates the realms of driving techno, melodic textures, and nostalgic grooves, all while infusing them with a glitchy, futuristic twist.

Nakamo started on her DJ journey in the North London party scene, crafting podcasts during the lockdown for techno collectives based in London.

Since then, this emerging talent has quickly made a strong name for herself, with performances at well-respected venues in the capital, including FOLD, Fabric, Corsica Studios as well as making her European debut at the prestigious Ved Siden Af in Copenhagen last year.

In 2020, Nakamo immersed herself in production and recently released her debut collaborative EP with Ctrltraxx on Leisure World.

909 RIOT has a passion for hard techno, which he discovered on the noughties underground techno scene in Leeds, where he lives.  

Following a 10 plus year hiatus from making music he recently returned with an obsessive focus to dig deeper than most for those special tracks audiences won’t hear elsewhere. He brings a heavy, unique sound by seamlessly blending layers to create a hard edged, energetic and infectious style, which caught my attention not too long ago while surfing mixes on mixcloud. 

With releases on Tecno Oscuro, Keep on Techno, and many remixes and more in the pipeline, look out for future releases from 909 RIOT that embody his principles behind the decks. 

He is also a resident on the hugely popular Fnoob Techno Radio.

What and who is A Darker Wave?
We are a duo (jacki-e & p-mac) who present our own radio show every Saturday at 10pm UK, 11pm CET on both NLive Radio www.nliveradio.com and Circl8 Radio www.circl8radio.com. The show is repeated on Sundays at 3am UK, 4am CET on House Nation Toronto Radio www.hntradio.com. We put the show together in our home studio. The show is streamed worldwide on the internet via the Tune In Radio app. Each show is posted on our Soundcloud and Mixcloud pages once it has been streamed.
We also play gigs as A Darker Wave and we have played at events in Germany, Birmingham, the East Midlands and Brighton.
The music we play is techno, tech house and deep house.
Each show is 2 hours long. In the first hour we go into the mix with our featured EP of the week and the best of the new releases.
In the second hour we invite new and upcoming DJs to come onto the show and do a guest mix.

Why are you called A Darker Wave?
Dark Wave was first used in the 1980s to describe a dark and melancholy variant of new wave and post-punk music and was first applied to UK musicians such as Bauhaus, Joy Division, Sisters of Mercy, Cocteau Twins, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode and Anne Clark. It was also used to describe artists who combined music with performance art, such as Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire, who challenged and explored the darker and obsessive sides of the human condition.

A lot of techno takes its spirit and ethos from this music, Listen to Throbbing Gristle or Cabaret Voltaire and you can hear the industrial sounds which are a staple of techno music today.

Techno is the outsider of electronic dance music, the punk of today's modern music scene. As Dave Clarke said in an interview with Mixmag, " Techno is edgy. Techno will challenge you......it's the real dark art."
https://mixmag.net/feature/the-road-to-tomorrow-dave-clarke

Our radio show, in presenting the best in underground techno and deep house music, and in giving an opportunity for new, up and coming DJ's and producers, is providing an outlet for new techno, which is best described as being the new wave of modern dance music.

Not just a new wave, but with it's incessant bass rumblings, synthesiser drones, pounding drums, melodic top notes and eerie, distorted vocal samples, techno, in all its forms, is a backdrop to and a critique of our post-industrial, consumerist society, one in which our actions are observed 24/7, our democratic freedoms are threatened by our very own governments and our rights to do, think and act as we please are under ever increasing scrutiny. Techno really is A Darker Wave.

When we were listening to music in the 60’s and 70’s, before the electronic tentacles of technology infiltrated the world, we often thought, whilst listening to the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Frank Zappa, Hawkwind, Captain Beefhart, New York Dolls and Roxy Music, where would music go to in the future? It could never be what was being portrayed in the science fiction movies of the time. Now we know. It can be anything. When we have a recording studio in our own home which is more powerful and versatile than anything available back then, we now know music can be anything and go anywhere. It is only the spark of our imaginations, or lack of it, that holds us back. On our laptop computers we have the capabilities that many artists back then would have given their right arms for. It’s for the uniqueness of the artist to express themselves to be able to stand out from the deluge of music available. Finding those gems is the modern day equivalent of crate digging and when you do, it makes it all worthwhile. Long live music!!!!

musical ADHD | fucking around and finding out

Recognized as one of Malaysia’s most prominent figures in the music scene with over 20 years of experience in the industry, Alam has dedicated most of his years embracing the culture. Not only is he one of the backbones behind KL's leading establishments, but he has also definitely proven himself to be considered as one of the pioneers of this generation firing up the local and international clubbing scene.

In 2005, Alam moved to Australia, where he developed an impressive following playing alongside Melbourne’s finest and hosting his own successful nights at some of the city’s forefront venues. It was his residency with Darkbeat that kick-started his international career, leading to opportunities in supporting world-renowned event brands such as Resident Advisor, Balance Music, Future Entertainment & Hardware Corp, followed by a number of stints on Kiss FM - Australia’s Dance Music Channel.

After 7 years based overseas, Alam returned to his homeland and joined Ohrwurm as a partner. The collective have been responsible for shaping the Kuala Lumpur scene over the past decade, and have featured iconic names from John Digweed to Michael Mayer, Gerd Janson and Amelie Lens, to live acts such as Guti, KiNK and Stimming, amongst countless others.

On the production note, he’s released 2 EPs on Love International, as well as on his own imprint; Ohrwurm KL Recordings, which was launched in August 2021. His first ever EP ‘Kaleidosimple’ was released on Redflux Cinnabar in 2009 with remixes from Nick Robson, Rodrigo Soria, and Yuuki Hori. The release was charted numerous times and received widespread praise with support from DJs on shows like FriskyRadio and Proton. 

Other highlights to mention was playing at Vietnam’s Epizode festival for 2 years in a row, and not forgetting his 9hrs marathon set he did at The Sweatbox in Elysium. Alam was also selected as one of the supporting acts for Circo Loco 2019 in Malaysia.

In conjunction with celebrating his 20 years of DJing, Alam hosted 20 livestreams during the Covid pandemic in 2020, featuring some of the best local talents, which concluded with a finale video filmed by Effilix Production. Two of Alam’s videos were included in Mixmag’s “Top 20 Livestreams of 2020”. His aim was to showcase Malaysia’s talents on a global scale. The livestreams continued for another year with ‘Ohrwurm presents Micasa Sucasa’. There is still much to come, as this is only the beginning of his musical chapter as Alam continues to progress immensely across the global dance music culture.

ECSTATIC DANCE 🌗 TECHNO RAVES

From an early age, Myrte Hiss has been captivated by the mesmerizing allure of repetitive patterns and consonant harmonies that resonate with a deep bass sound. Electronic dance music has always been her oxygen, infusing her existence since the early 90s and shaping her connection with the dancefloor.

Having resided in the tropics and Caribbean for a decade, Myrte absorbed the essence of organic sounds, the infectious rhythms of Latin American beats, the whispers of indigenous traditions, and the vibrant energy of jungle and island life. 

Yet, beneath this surface lies a raver at heart, with a soft spot for the harder and more intense styles. It is within these contrasts that her multifaceted personality finds its truest expression.

Myrte plays on a spectrum between light & dark: from organic downtempo soundscapes to the relentless pulsations of hard-hitting techno. She passionately plays with these different moods, showcasing them separately in either lighter (Lamírla) or darker modes (Myrte Hiss). On special occasions, she unites her light and dark sides in extended sets that cover the whole spectrum. 

No matter where she takes you on this sonic spectrum, Myrte's music will uplift you, let you flow, and ignite your energy and emotions.
