I had the idea to start an own podcast series for quite a while now but I was a bit afraid to be honest. I wanted to keep it in a radio show format, as this is the format I grew up with and this was how I’ve discovered music. Also I wanted to do something different as I have a pretty wide range in music which I like. I get influenced by so many things so I thought it might be interesting for you to take this platform as the concept for a podcast. I will dig deeper and deeper through my collection of records and present it to you each month. It doesn’t matter how new or old the music is, it’s just about creating a good vibe to listen to, to enter another dimension.

Moreover the idea is also to invite guests, in irregular intervals - people I respect for what they are doing music wise and for the culture.

Music is able to lift you into other dimensions, so come with me through this portal and immerse into the depths of my record collection.

Blazej Malinowski
Take any of Blazej Malinowski’s numerous projects—his wide-ranging productions, powerful DJ or live sets, events, radio shows or record label Inner Tension—and you will find the same ethos at the core. They’re all built on a passion for creating uplifting moments through electronic music, and on an open-mindedness to explore, collaborate and evolve.

Malinowski started DJing in early 2000s Warsaw, while eagerly discovering early US house and techno music. Together with his friend Michał Wolski, Malinowski started the Fünfte Strasse Project as an event series and radio show. From there, gigs quickly began to flow. His skills behind the decks stood out, and before long Malinowski was playing across Poland and around the world, delivering beloved sets of driving, contemporary techno.

While developing an uncompromising musical identity as a DJ, Malinowski began to translate his nuanced interpretation of techno, ambient and experimental music into productions. His first released works landed in 2012, laying the groundwork for records on acclaimed labels such as The Gods Planet, Svreca’s Semantica and Claudio PRC’s 012. Fast forward to today and Malinowski is a go-to name for tripped-out, psychedelic grooves for pitch-black dancefloors.

Despite his acclaim as a techno artist, Malinowski holds the more experimental side of his craft in equal standing. He is the founder of the A/V event series Why So Silent?, which pairs electronic music with silent movies, and also continues to push his boundaries through collaborations, such as the leftfield duo Keen Distress, or B2B sets.

Though Malinowski recently made the move to Berlin in order to fully realise his ambitions, he remains as committed as ever to his native Poland’s musical landscape, holding down a residency at Jasna1 and tirelessly championing the country’s cultural  history and vibrant scene. From his new home, a global hub for dance music, Malinowski is pushing himself to explore the full range of possibilities within techno’s ever-evolving framework.

MMali—who also performs under the name Issun-boshi—stands firmly behind the idea that music should be felt, not only heard. Once a member of the Formaviva crew, he now paves his path under the Endemit banner, being a central figure in the underground music scene in Ljubljana that defies conventions and redefines sonic boundaries. His sets are immersive and emotional, resonating deeply with those seeking more than just another party. Drawing on the ethos of the Endemit family, MMali or Issun-boshi hand-picks his tracks to stir the senses, each one speaking a language of its own, shaping the underground landscape anew.

Blažen DJ is an expert of broken beats and bass, across all the tempos and subgenres. From new bangers to old classics, from dance frenzy to blissful joy.

TO MECHANICS!
(Mechanics and Drivers!)

I.
Mechanics cannot die because it has no soul. To a mechanic the paradox is incomprehensible because it transcends the laws of mechanics. The paradox is a leap from mechanics into life. The paradox is alive as electricity. Electricity is not mechanical. SO LET’S NOT BE MECHANICAL BUT RATHER ELECTRICAL.

II.
Contact between electric wires creates a spark. Contact between young people also creates a spark. It is an electric flame. To the mechanic it is dangerous for it makes a short circuit that burns through mechanisms. The short circuit burns through mechanisms. We are coming to destroy mechanisms. Man-machine will be destroyed. Hang a placard: MAN-MACHINE will be destroyed!

III.
Lightning rods serve no purpose. Lightning must ignite the soul. Let it strike, set the soul aflame! We must destroy all mechanisms. We’ve declared war on all mechanisms! This is the first proclamation of war in the state of SCS. It was enacted in Slovenia. FIGHT ALL MECHANISMS!

IV.
Dawn is breaking! Can you feel the shimmer? No more peoples or nations, no more humanity. One Man stands at the center of the world, just one Man crowned with white thorns. And above him humanity’s silver halo. (Was it a storm, death itself?) Only one Man, and everyone standing around him are just his different faces. (Is he a miner, tanner, dockhand, peasant, functionary, writer, scholar or beggar? I can’t tell. Is he a Slovene, German, Russian or Frenchman? I don’t know. All I know is I am terribly fond of this Man, whoever he is, whatever he is.) I don’t know who he is, what he is, for me it is enough to know only this: I LOVE HIM!

V.
New humanity is rising. What if it comes from the depths? IT WAS HUMILIATED. What if it comes from the abyss? IT WAS DESECRATED! What if it comes with thunder and lightning? IT WAS SUPPRESSED! 
There’s only one thing ... that he is coming, let him come! What if he comes over dead bodies? There’s life force within him. A force that defies death.
Open the windows! Wild air enters the room, a new atmo-sphere full of ozone, robust with health! (Ozone from pine trees!)
Open the windows, open the doors: NEW MAN IS COMING. All mechanisms must die! New Man is coming!
Bow to his suffering, kneel to his humiliation, greet his force. (All suffering was for him — joy, humiliation — glorification, force — resurrection.)
All mechanisms must die! NEW MAN IS COMING!

VI.
Let me greet him too!
