Portal: What Lies Beyond.

Episode 08: Meridian.r

This eighth foray into the otherworld is helmed by another resident of the UK’s North - Sheffield based Meridian.r. Curator of the excellent Cycle podcast - formally an event series bringing some top tier deep techno talent to an intimate warehouse in the Steel City - it is currently a series of mixes that shines a light on the northern adjacent left-field electronics scene.

No stranger to helming the decks himself, having been pushing the deep grooves at the likes of the iconic Groundwork and Magnetic North as well as his own events, we had the fine selections of Meridian.r on showcase at one of our recent monthly gatherings - wandering through a delightful garden of sounds that fit very well with our own tastes here at Portal.

Another entry into the series composed entirely on a pair of 1210s, Meridian.r’s mix weaves from the depths of ambient oceans through dub techno infused breaks and chuggers, the energy building tacitly until equilibrium is found in a heady concoction of hypnotic techno that rides the interplay between drive and groove in style. See you on the other side.

CINUS PODCAST_02_-_Fernie

It always surprises me how music can capture the essence of a moment so vividly. With this selection, I wanted to hold onto a specific feeling - I searched for comfort, tinted by a soft kind of melancholy. I wanted to create a hermetic bubble of tenderness, tracing the intimacy of touch - its pause outside of time, and its subsequent release. 

May it open a small space for you to breathe, too.

Elvin @ RSO.BERLIN | 18.10.2025 (Opening Set)

Desde el tenue resplandor del underground de principios de los 90, Árpád Horvát — HORI — ha dedicado más de veinticinco años a explorar las frecuencias ocultas del sonido electrónico. Su evolución refleja los cambios constantes de la escena: nacida del ritmo conmovedor del house neoyorquino de los 90, forjada en la crudeza del techno italiano y británico, refinada por el minimalismo de los 2000 y, finalmente, sumergida en la profunda e hipnótica inmensidad del dub y el ambient techno.

Guiado por la influencia de visionarios como Kraftwerk, Drexciya, Plastikman, Laurent Garnier, Jeff Mills, Surgeon, Mike Parker y Edit Select, HORI siempre se ha mantenido al margen de las tendencias. Su enfoque reside en lo que subyace: en las texturas, la resonancia y las sutiles fuerzas que dan forma al paisaje emocional del sonido. Cada actuación es menos un set que un ritual de cocción lenta, donde el ritmo se disuelve en la atmósfera y el tiempo se transforma en pulso y tono.

Tras haber vivido en Serbia, Hungría, el Reino Unido y ahora Malta, el estilo de HORI refleja una vida de movimiento: fluido, transgresor de géneros y profundamente humano. A través de @nexus.xmt, organiza y promueve eventos y podcasts que celebran la auténtica música underground: música que se siente viva, en constante evolución e intacta por la corriente principal.

“Nexus x Deep Currents” es la encarnación de esta visión: una noche de club comisariada por él y un grupo de embajadores locales del sonido deep. Juntos, crean una atmósfera donde el dub, el deep y el techno hipnótico convergen en una experiencia compartida. Es un encuentro que trasciende la vida nocturna: una exploración de la conexión a través del sonido, donde las corrientes son profundas y el baile se convierte en un lenguaje propio.

Deepartment - Claudio PRC - 13 Nov 2025

"Opening Garage Noord was nothing short of a dream for me. I was able to play slow and deep, with a lot of natural elements. This is the kind of music I resonate most with, and playing it in such a familiar room felt unbelievable."

Championing a sound both entrancingly serene and deep-diving, Blazej Malinowski joins us for a two-hour journey across dubbed-out psychedelic folds and straightforward cinematic crescendos he holds the secret to. Through a string of hypnotic releases for the likes of Semantica, The Gods Planet, Kvalia and his own imprint, Inner Tension, the Polish DJ and producer has been minting a sound signature both impeccably fuel-efficient and immersive to the full. Seeking the meditative thrill of sensory entanglement through contrasting dynamic forces and melodic chiaroscuros, Malinowski treats us to a rivetingly evocative outpour of shape-shifting techno epics and sunken, reverb-drenched atmospherics spiraling in and out of focus. Expect a deluge of mazy, claustrophobic 4x4 corridors and further unhindered panoramas of layered, swelling synthesis. Wild.

A new face in the techno scene, Esker comes from a background of noise and experimental music, having played as a drummer and guitarist in several bands in Melbourne. This is reflected in her sound – relentlessly marching beats and austere drones are interspersed with field recordings and vocal snippets processed beyond recognition.

After an appearance on the “Voitax X” compilation, Esker went on to release her debut 12” EP with Voitax. Entitled “Destruction Time Again”, her unique take on techno has earned the support of some of the best names in techno right now.Ancient Methods - In Silence
