Neptunian Influence, Fifty-Five | Featuring @Ryote

Since co-founding @Kajunga, Minneapolis’ only skate-punk boy band/record label, Ryote has carved out a niche with his trademark squiggly brand of high-tempo slammers. Also a resident deejay of Intellephunk, this B-52’s historian with the most bounce per ounce knows how to lay it on thick while keeping things totally sleemin.

NI55 | Ryote

There's no doubt in our collective mind that we're right in the middle of the cold and dark season that is winter. Yep, it’s become exceptionally clear that the holiday period is are over but that doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. No; there's plenty that we can draw from the elements running wild at this time of year. Train yourself to think more in a more positive light, just as Hybrid Recordings boss Cari Lekebusch has done in his latest mix for us. Referencing his homeland's own frozen environment he's put together a selection that injects a tangible yet mystic energy into the fold. It’s also the perfect indicator of what we can expect from his next visit to Farringdon later this month when he joins Terry Francis and Peter Van Hoesen in Room Two.

Cari Lekebusch - fabric Promo Mix (Jan 2015)

The recording from one of my favourite sets last year ~ Transcendence Festival in Japan 🌲🇯🇵

I’ve long been drawn to the deep, organic and electrifying techno of Japan–inextricably linked to open-air gatherings deep in the forest–so it was very special to play this set in the mystical woods of Nagano’s mountains.

I played after Japanese wizard OCCA @oooccaaa, from 11.30PM-2AM ~ descending into the night and far beyond ✧.*｡⋆

Deepest thanks to @takumiinamoto1994 and @djmaria-jp for the invitation to join this gathering of likeminded musical souls, I am very grateful to have shared this experience with friends old + new 🫶

Featuring music from Alan Backdrop, Toki Fuko, Jacques Adda, Nao Nhil, Huda, A Strange Wedding, Conceptual, GiGi FM, Kangding Ray, Zemog, Noise From Beyond, Danieli, Vardae +++

Hope you enjoy this psychedelic forest trip to outer space 🌲🌌🧚🌙

Sybil @ Transcendence 2024

A real pleasure to have the extremely gifted @xiaolinmusic from Hongkong for our fourth SoundSculptors episode 😍 She crafted a beautiful trip through many different moods and styles, capturing our musical heart and soul. It's such an interesting story accompanied by high skill not only in the electronic but also in the instrumental parts. Ambient, Downtempo, old school gamy sound, cantonese pop music vibes and more interesting colours appear in this versatile journey. Real earcandy 🍭

More about Xiaolin ~

Xiaolin (曉霖) is a DJ, producer, vinyl collector and classically-trained musician from Hong Kong. Driven by a relentless curiosity for warm sounds, complex emotions and colourful textures, she enjoys crafting magnetic sets that draw audiences in, while her live ambient sets reveal the more contemplative side of her natural musicality as a former concert violinist.

Xiaolin spent a decade studying classical violin, jazz, world music and electronic composition at Juilliard (BM’14) and Berklee Valencia (MM ’15/’16), where she played in Batucada/jazz bands and began collecting records under her mentor, Nacho Marco. Having spent two years in London just before the pandemic, she developed an interest in UK underground culture and Detroit electro.

Inspired by sounds from the the mid 80’s-early 00’s, her love for video games, anime, nature as well as a respect for her Cantonese roots, Xiaolin’s analog synth-heavy productions range from gritty acid house and breaks with earthy percussion to tripped-out electro, bassy groovers and raw downtempo ambience that invoke deeper feelings of romantic adventure with a dreamy, theatrical touch.  

Despite her ever-evolving nature, Xiaolin’s ethereal-yet-raw sound remains a signature throughout all productions.

Xiaolin is sensitive to the dancefloor and crafts an intuitive journey unbound by genre, digging deep to discover dynamic connections.  Her energetic, acid-laden selections explore the vast in-between of house and techno, while her original live set has three formats: “Sun” for daytime settings, “Moon” for meditative settings and “Body” for nightclub settings.

Releases include two EP’s on 宀 Records, a collaborative track on Klasse Wrecks “Michaelsoft", VA contributions on 20/20 Vision (Exit Planet Earth – “Helium”), Polychrome Audio (“Diffraction EP”) and Harmony Rec (upcoming), as well as three 80’s Cantonese disco tribute EP’s on Sound Metaphors’ “Bless You” imprint (A&R by Jane Fitz).

Xiaolin's ‘HEX’ residency at 宀 (Hong Kong) has seen her invite & play alongside guests such as Polygonia, Mary Lake, Peach, Merve, Vlada, Joe Delon, Closet Yi, Jesse You, Maara etc.  She hosts a bimonthly show on Baihui Radio China and has done guest mixes on EYA, Test Pressing, The Mudd Show, The Lot Radio, NTS and Balamii amongst others.  

Recent highlights include Boiler Room (Singapore), Blitz Club (Unchained), and Panorama Bar on live set as part of Sound Metaphors’ 9-year-anniversary event (coinciding with the release of her second EP on Bless You), with upcoming sets at Wonderfruit Festival and Womb Tokyo.  She will make her Rainbow Disco Club live set debut with Kuniyuki Takahashi in April 2025.

After a short sunstroke and a well-needed pause, we're gently dusting off the Aquatic Gardens series to make way for its 29th bloom, one that's both fierce and grounding.

This time, the invitation goes to our dear friend @oliver-sj-lund, an Amsterdam local with roots all the way North, and a founding pillar of Noord Space, where countless memories and frequencies have echoed into the day and night. Also known as the digging mind behind Forgotten Tracks, his sonic vocabulary is built on wax and whispers, always pointing toward the rare and the precious.

For this mix, @oliver-sj-lund takes us on a techno-forward path - sharp, deep, and carefully sewn together. It's a ride that cuts through the post-heatwave haze and carves a powerful opening into the weekend.

Strap in, dive deep - the garden is in motion again.

Shoal @ GIMIC - 03 May 2025

our first transmission comes from Noa, DJ, producer, dog dad, and devoted friend of the marshlands. as co-creator of nonverbal communication, he's the one weaving our sonic spores into form; stitching each pondcast with care and intention. deeply passionate about electronic music, Noa brings a serene presence and playful curiosity to the pond as he takes us on an wetland expedition that slowly builds in energy.

𓆑𓇢𓆸 𖡼.𖤣𖥧° 𓋼𓍊 𓆏𖤣𖡼𓅧 ༄. 𓆉⋆.˚꩜｡𓆈

some words from him:
“Using your imagination, spend an hour and dip into an aquatic and dubby journey into the world of the pond… The water is just beginning to stir; amphibious creatures are awakening. Gentle ripples echo outward through the water– slow, soft, and full of promise… It’s bound to be a beautiful, hazy day at the pond! 
In this study of sounds recorded at 111.11 bpm, different creatures and areas of the wetland are explored and examined; each with their own unique sonic characteristics to discover."

A veritable staple of the Japanese scene and founder of the Protection label, Haruka joins our series with two hours of delightful, liquiform groove recorded live from Kyoto. Expansive yet dialed in with tireless precision, Haruka’s set transitions between eyes-down introspection and buoyant, infectious energy with ease. To witness this level of craft enveloped by such a warm and vibrant aura is an absolute pleasure, and it’s easy to imagine oneself suspended weightless in Haruka’s element. Thank you Haruka!

Ken Meier, alongside his wife Yoonjai Choi at Common Name, has designed every flyer and record for The Bunker New York since 2013. On top of his obvious skills as a designer, he is one of the deepest music heads we know. This set was recorded live at midnight at The Bunker Limited New Year's Eve Party on December 31, 2015.

The Bunker Podcast 121 - Ken Meier

@karlpmeier
@ken-meier

Brothers possessing an encyclopedic knowledge of music across the spectrum, Karl & Ken Meier join Bryan Kasenic in our New York studio.

Born and raised in the western suburbs of Chicago, longtime collaborators and real-life brothers Ken and Karl Meier – who also records and performs as half of Talker, a duo with Jonathan “Stave” Crohn – developed a mutual obsession with music from their parents’ record collection, digging into rock & roll before moving onto synthpop and, eventually, the more electronic end of the spectrum. Working together at the Windy City’s reputable Gramaphone Records only increased their vinyl enthusiasm and expertise, simultaneously honed with weekly broadcasts on frequencies like WNUR and WHPK. Though the opportunity to DJ came somewhat unexpectedly to Karl, he and his brother took to it: they were the first Chicagoans to play out with Pioneer CDJs and hosted the Fear of Music event series (and now podcast) featuring a mix of regional and international producers including Surgeon, Function, Anthony “Shake” Shakir and BMG. Now based in New York City and Berlin, respectively, Ken and Karl come together in the studio for a wide-ranging, hard-hitting collaborative DJ set and an interview with Bryan Kasenic.

30th June 2012

Was sorting through an old hard drive and found this, completely forgot I even had a recording of it. Was lucky enough to be on warmup for DVS1 when he came to Belfast, it was a massive deal for me as he's up there with my favourites - a proper DJs DJ. Went down and picked him up from Dublin airport and he was asking me what time my set started, and he showed up to the gig early to sit and listen to me play. What a guy! 

Anyhow, here's part of the recording from the night.
