Ø [Phase] has been a driving force in techno for over two decades, impacting the movement with his prototypical, stripped-back sound. Since cutting his teeth at Sony Music London as a mastering engineer in the late ’90s, he’s paved his way unapologetically, often challenging audiences in his relentless pursuit of pure artistry.
His stark tracks exude an unbiased confidence that effortlessly commands the dance floor, ripening into quintessential classics. At a deeper glance, his music reveals an unseen complexity that seems to defy time and space—meticulously arranged and fervently produced with technical mastery.

Initially debuting on Steve Bicknell’s Cosmic Records, he became the principal artist of Token Records, eventually launching his own Modwerks label.
Besides a steady stream of critically acclaimed releases under his solo moniker, Ø [Phase]’s expansive projects include ongoing collaborations with Luke Slater as Roog Unit and Phyxix alongside Matrixxman.
He’s co-produced iconic tracks with UK legends Underworld and crafted definitive remixes for the likes of Robert Hood, Len Faki, and Rødhåd, but his momentum won’t stop there.
Catch him touring extensively, headlining events at ADE, Berghain, Dekmantel, Fabric, and diverse cities across the globe. Ø [Phase] maintains his position at the forefront of techno innovation, continually redefining the essence of underground music.

Archaic Revival - Minimal Detroit Set

It's been a while since I put up a fresh techno mix. To be honest, I was kinda losing interest with all the tracks coming out trying to sound like Funk Assault clones (badly), so took a bit of a step back for a few months. Now the darker months are incoming, it feels like the perfect time for a set of nothing but fast-paced, dancefloor aimed heaters. Mostly new tracks with a few oldies sprinkled in. Enjoy!

Tim Xavier - The End Result 1998 Vinyl Mix A & B sides Mixtape_MMM

Episode 240 brings a transmission from Decoder, the Dallas-based artist crafting hyper-minimalist body music with a distinct sci-fi sensibility.

Through releases on storied labels like Axis and Molecular, as well as modern outposts such as Blank Code, Float, AMTK+, and his own imprints Codec and Toca Records, Decoder has shaped a sound that feels engineered for deep space — stark, rhythmic, and precise.

His work has drawn the attention of techno’s most forward-thinking figures, including Jeff Mills, Rrose, Amotik, and Richie Hawtin, the latter bringing him on an international tour spanning North America, Europe, and India. Decoder’s performances at venues like De School, Fold, and Watergate reflect his alignment with the more experimental edges of the genre.

This mix is not just a set — it’s architecture in motion. Sparse, physical, and charged with tension. All of the tracks featured here are unreleased material by Decoder, offering an exclusive preview of what’s to come.

Introducing 45'MIN – VA001

Marking the beginning of our journey, VA001 delivers a no-frills dose of dancefloor pressure: 10 forward-pushing cuts built for smoke-filled rooms and late-night systems.

This first compilation sets the tone for what we’re about — deep, groove-driven music shaped for the club, made by artists who live and breathe the craft. From lean percussive rollers to warped, high-pressure stompers, the release balances functional energy with character, detail, and depth.

Featuring a mix of close collaborators and new faces, VA001 is our statement of intent: a raw, high-intensity snapshot of what’s moving dancefloors right now.
