Motto Sono Records presents: (MOTTO17) Apollo's Kids by Dimitris Soukos & George Rontiris. Stripped down, deep and to the point, like it sounded in New York, London and Athens back in the 90's. Featuring vocals by our Motto Sono in-house vocalist G-Tech.

Apollo's Kids (MOTTO17)

Apollo's Kids (feat G-Tech), by Dimitris Soukos & George Rontiris (MOTTO17)

My next guest on Yax Invites is FARLEY, a DJ based in London, England, with over 5 years of experience mixing and a little over 18 months producing techno. FARLEY says "it is a real honour to be selected to record a mix for this series. This 90 minute session will fully show where my techno sound is as of this moment, containing hypnotic minimalistic sounds layered with scifonic loops adding rough textures to fully represent my techno style".

Enjoy the trip.

Danilenko, Trey  - Under Your Spell

Over the years, Lee Holman and I have become great friends. He released many times on my labels Knotweed Records and Decision Making Theory. So did I on his projects One Off and Demarcation. Lee is an amazing DJ and we played (and partied) many times together in Berlin, both at Suicide Club and at Tresor (last time in 2019 for an incredible Knotweed night into the vault with Myk Derill and Giordano).

Together with Myk Derill, Gonzalo MD and Mode_1, he is part of Knotweed's DNA: under the radar passionate artists delivering Real Techno!

This year Lee has had a string of incredible releases on Knotweed 047, Nechto 020 and Snork 112, and I have so many of his releases at home (Snork 112 landing in Chamonix yesterday!), I though it was time I record a podcast with only his vinyl releases.

After a bit of digging, I came out with about 20 pieces of wax he produced that I mixed on the fly, dating from 2010 to today.

A hardware aficionado, you immediately recognise Lee's style, from his intricate drum patterns (soft to heavy kicks, in-your-face claps, rolling hi-hats etc) to martian bleeps,  super spatial synth and powerful baselines, always hypnotic, always driving.

I hope you will enjoy listening to this mix as much as I enjoyed recording it this afternoon. An 80 minutes-long mix, and he produced so many good tracks, I could have gone much longer!

Make no mistakes, Lee is here to stay!

Have a great Xmas and a fantastic 2023!

Best regards from Chamonix, Philippe
