Composer, producer, and DJ dragongirl has recorded a mix for us featuring some of her own tracks too. Having released her critically acclaimed debut album 'hot blue' on the Norwegian label Sheep Chase Records in 2023, dragongirl has since brought her vibrant sound to some of Northern Europe's most well-known clubs and festivals including Denmark's Den Anden Side, Berlin's OST and OXI, and Kaleido Festival. Her sets blend trance, techno and happy hardcore with influences from Eurodance, gabber and EDM, inviting her audience on a playful and unexpected adventure. And that's exactly what dragongirl mirrors in this week's mix.

TM8 Q: Take us on a date. Where would you bring us and why?
A: "To a Lana Del Rey concert for sure, I would defo fall in love if we kiss under her blessing"

Uruguayan DJ and producer YOZY supplies a shape-shifting mix for us, oscillating between experimental and broken rhythms to 4/4 techno and irresistible trance classics. The Barcelona-based artist also includes tracks from her upcoming album, dropping June 5th. Having released several contributions to VAs on Clan Destine Records, low income $quad, and Last Love Records, they have also delivered music to Human Club; a label based in Barcelona's Razzmatazz, where they are a resident DJ and run their own party CALIENTE. Additionally, YOZY has played for parties and festivals like Boiler Room x Primavera Sound, Raiders, Suicide Club, Voight-Kampff, Latineo, and many more. Plus, their monthly radio show on HKCR called 'Messages from the stars' has recently transformed into an IRL ambient showcase.

TM8 Q: Track to wake up a tired dancefloor? 
A: "Dual Monitor - Seoul City Drift"

✦•······················•✦•······················•✦

Chilean DJ and artist puxo shares a mix of deconstructed and club-ready sounds with us this week. The Barcelona-based talent leans into Latin rhythms, choppy percussion, and emotional textures across their sets, creating a mood that blurs the lines between rhythmic intensity and sonic experimentation. Having established their profile within the Barcelona scene by playing parties like Latineo, MUSA, Deprerreo, and No Tags, puxo has since released an ambient EP as a parallel exploration to their artistic output, revealing a more introspective side of their sound.

Introducing Arsène Martinet - Conjuration 

Multidisciplinary label Face Æ steps into new territory with its first solo EP, inviting Arsène Martinet to deliver a deep and introspective exploration of sound.

Arsène Martinet approaches music like one would explore a hidden territory—slowly, deeply, with the attentiveness of someone listening for the silence behind the sound. Inspired by the languages of nature and the invisible architectures of the mind, he crafts introspective techno at the crossroads of ambient, mysticism, and the tangible.


Through misty pads, mineral textures, and subterranean pulses, his sound evokes both drift and ritual: a sensory experience that invites presence, the gentle unraveling of fixed points, and the union of opposites. First revealed on the label Aedi, he continues to trace his path with a distinct sonic identity, where each frequency seems to speak with the invisible.


Arsène Martinet doesn’t simply compose tracks, he carves out spaces...

TM8 Q: Who’s the dream third wheel for your B3B and why? 
A: “Our dream B3B, it’s actually really easy to say, it also might seem silly with a sea of incredible artists to pick from. Especially all the producers here whose tracks we deeply connect with. However when It comes to it, we would have to choose our dear friend and chosen family member @0ccyx. We are a trio in our own way, always looking at the sound system, talking about our favourite artists and productions. We do what we love with each other which is: dance, scheme, run parties and continuously push each other to find the next most otherworldly track which we’ll not stop talking about for weeks. We’re our own little family, us three against the world.” 

✦•······················•✦•······················•✦ 

Bristol-based duo Field Case share a winding mix for us, snaking through slow-burning rhythms, meditative beats, and mystical soundscapes, exploring the deepest and most cerebral shades of techno. DJs Petrachore and Ohana are behind Field Case and began the project after meeting by chance in early 2023. They then formed Bristol’s first-ever queer community radio station, Transgression.fm, to showcase artists in the city’s creative realm. These days, Field Case are residents of Bristol events RTN and Queerky, where they continue to meld their differing musical backgrounds and sonic palettes. Their journey together has defined their sound, character and mystery, and we’re delighted to share a taster of that on this week’s mix.

@harry-dott on @amniote-editions

BUY: https://amniote-editions.bandcamp.com/album/hba-21-various-artists-refraction-of-light-ii

Refraction of Light Vol. II gathers 21 artists linked by place yet divergent in expression, charting a fluid passage of moods, drifting from first light to nightfall.

The compilation’s framing draws from its title: like light refracting on the horizon of a long drive, it bends shifting sounds and perspectives into a shared vision shaped by distance, connection, and the landscapes in between.

In the same way, Amniote Editions’ capsules provide fertile ground for music to evolve — nurturing divergent practices, experimental forms, and cross-genre encounters. Refraction of Light Vol. II extends this lineage, binding artists through place and possibility, and echoing so-called Australia’s role as a cradle of creative life within its worldwide snakeweb.

10% of profits from this compilation will be donated to Palestine Australia Relief and Action (PARA) [para.org.au]. PARA help Palestinian migrants and refugees live safe, happy, and fulfilling lives in Australia.

Conceived on the land of the Gadigal peoples of the Eora Nation, the project acknowledges the traditional custodians of this country, paying respect to elders past and present, and recognising that sovereignty was never ceded.

TM8 Q: What tune would you walk down the aisle to (if ever)?
A: "I’ve never really imagined walking down the aisle; the image itself never belonged to my thoughts. But if I think of it as a symbol of union, a crossing into something new, a merging of paths and transformations.. two tunes come to me: The Sound of Silence and Scarborough Fair by Simon & Garfunkel. They both seem to hold that delicate balance between melancholy and hope, love and magic.” 

✦•······················•✦•······················•✦ 

Transformation, intuition, and connection; these are the feelings that inform Qi’s story-led sets and productions. Crafting immersive and ritual-inflected sounds, the Armenian artist and @crudeberlin resident blends deep, fast-paced rhythms with atmospheric textures, creating moments that move both the mind and body. Inspired by natural phenomena, ancient echoes, and the alchemy of sound, Qi’s signature shines in her mix for us and stretches beyond into her 
label and storytelling platform, @siooqh.
