Here's something just a little bit special...

Ahead of Riverside Festival in Glasgow this coming September we have been blessed with a series of mixes from some of the best and most influential dj's in the city. There is no better place to start really than with Slam, the dj duo extraordinaire who have contributed a lifetime to techno. The pair remain two of the most prominent dj's on the circuit and over the years have established a fierce reputation for their approach to the genre. Their own record label Soma, which they founded alongside Dave Clarke and Glenn Gibbons, has released some of the most crucial music from within the realm of techno and has been a home to musicians like The Black Dog, Surgeon, Deepchord, Daft Punk, Gene Farris, Schatrax, Silicone Soul and many, many more. 

Longstanding residents at the infamous night Pressure the pair have worked alongside some of the biggest and best in the business. However there are stories to be told about their roots as promoters of the Atlantis and their own 'Slam' parties in Glasgow in the 90's. 

As producers the pair continue to push boundaries, releasing music with great consistency, continually managing to reinvent and approach the studio in the pursuit of something new. 

This is a special mix, Slam a special pair. Strap in...

Jay Clarke | HÖR - June 28 / 2024

PREMIERE: Not Operated - Essential (S-Limited)

- This is my first release, and with it, I want to share not just music, but an honest part of myself.
I didn’t follow any rules or stick to a specific genre while creating it—I simply let my thoughts, emotions, and sonic obsessions speak for themselves. Every sound here was crafted with the intention of gradually shaping what will become my sound, my identity.

This project is the first step on a path that’s just beginning. I know there’s still a lot to improve, but I also know that everything you hear here was made with passion, dedication, and a fully self-taught process.

More music will come this year, but this EP… this one is special.
Thank you for listening. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it.


- Es mi primer lanzamiento y con él quiero compartir no solo música, sino una parte honesta de mí. No seguí reglas ni géneros al componerlo; simplemente dejé que mis pensamientos, emociones y obsesiones sonoras hablaran por sí solos. Cada sonido está con la intención de acercarme poco a poco a lo que será mi sonido, mi identidad.

Este proyecto es el primer paso de un camino que apenas comienza. Sé que hay mucho por mejorar, pero también sé que todo lo que está aquí lo hice con pasión, con dedicación y desde un aprendizaje completamente autónomo.

Este año vendrá más música, pero este EP... este es especial.
Gracias por escucharlo. Ojalá lo disfrutes tanto como yo disfruté crearlo.

After reading our anniversary post some of you might already have had an idea of what was about to come. As part of our online celebration we invited two of the artists that would have played at Embodiment earlier this year and the first one who provided us with a special treat is Kaiser.

Kaiser has been defining his sound over the last couple of years which resulted in him being appreciated by fellow artists and his listeners. As a producer, he is putting out a lot of music under his own label KSR, but he also appears on other labels like Soma Records, Knowledge Imprint, and Publik Rhythm to name a few.

About his set for Embodiment he had the following to say:

‘In this set, I aimed to capture the feeling that I normally like to share with the people on the dancefloor. My goal is to manipulate the brain with music and leave something in the mind and heart that they will never forget. My style in combination with the way I mix serves the specific purpose of reaching this goal.’

Please enjoy this podcast as you would experience his closing set.
