@noizar's sound goes far beyond conventional house or techno. The Ukrainian DJ, who is now based in Amsterdam, has long since proven this with countless closing sets as resident at Kyiv’s legendary Closer club. It was there where he stood out for unearthing minimal techno treasures in places no one else looks. As such, you can always be sure that wherever Noizar mixes crop up online, they will be flooded with cheeky "ID?" requests, and quite often you will find they come on his vinyl-only Wicked Bass label.

For his Dekmantel Mix he offers a perfect snapshot of what he does in the booth: carefully dug out delights that don't really fit in usual categories. But they do tap into a specific deepness and groove that is rooted in Kyiv's minimal scene and the dance floor of Closer club. It results in a tight, taught hour of body music that perfectly balances function and form.

Shakolin is next up on the MASS podcast! We’re honoured to welcome the tasteful Ukrainian selector to the series with this serene, flow-state hour of mixing.

Deeply rooted in Kyiv’s Closer club and now based in Berlin, Shakolin carries the spirit of one of electronic music’s most revered institutions wherever he plays. His selections blend old and new into something groovy, deep, and unpredictable, always guided by a keen ear and instinct for the dancefloor.

This mix is a testament to his craft, tune in and enjoy!

TB Determined. Hour plus of that quintessential Ukrainian head-down slew, from one of its pillars. Through the swirls, drive and slice!

They called it a ‘colorful techno daydream’ and I wouldn’t say better — I was trying to stay away from black this time and make a soft-gliding atlas of muted tones and shifting light. Thank you, EOS radio, for the invitation!

"I’ve been thinking about recording a left-field mix (for the lack of better term) for quite a while, definitely for a couple years already. About a year ago I finally complied the selection of records, but for some reason I was postponing the very final step of recording it ever since. It is only because I took my first ever sabbatical leave from work recently that I managed to find inspiration for it to be finalised, and even to be repeatedly re-recorded, since the first take got screwed by the recording device’s misconfiguration.

This is not a perfect mix. But I’m still proud of it. The selection of records spans from 92 to 112 bpm, and the very premise of playing it in one take using only vinyl still sounds challenging to me. Yet, here we are: the mix is finally ready after all these months and years of hesitation and procrastination."
