Tech-nicks

Imagine growing up near Berlin, getting into dance music, going to Berghain for the first time and getting your mind blown by techno. Then, ten years later, you become a resident DJ at the fabled club. Not many people—any people?—can claim this story, but for Fadi Mohem, what would be so many DJs' dreams became a reality. After getting his 2017 debut 12-inch Reckless in the hands of all the right people in Berlin, Mohem established a bold, bouncy techno sound with releases on Modeselektor's Seilscheibenpfeiler, Ben Klock's Klockworks and FJAAK's SPANDAU20, pretty much the cream of the crop of modern techno.

Now, this year, he's becoming one of Berghain's newest residents, alongside other exciting names like Sedef Adasï and Naty Seres (and Lakuti upstairs at Panorama Bar). As heard on his recent collaborative with Ben Klock, Mohem has modern techno down to a science, thanks to a combination of reverence for the old-school and clever rhythmic touches, like the irresistible snare pattern on "Prefix." His RA Podcast sounds like what you might expect from a new generation of Berghain resident: aerodynamic, heavy and, honestly a little midtempo compared to a lot of other young techno DJs. It's the sound the club has made world-famous, with cuts from Reeko, Heiko Laux and Truncate, plus some special moments from aya, DJ Deeon and Petar Dundov. It takes a certain kind of DJ to get to this hallowed place, and Fadi Mohem deserves it.

COMBINE: Mix Series | Sigvard.

Sigvard, Tom Hades’ alternate ego. Launched in the late 90’s with driving techno, containing elements of percussion and very precise resampled material, Tom has evolved over the years in many mixtures of musical styles. During the pandemic lots of time was spent in the studio where he gained his old love back on using external gear and the simplicity, but super effective production style using different layers coming from different gear. Sigvard was born as a fusion between pulsing rhythm and sharp dissonant synths, the result of the above studio working methods. Constantly curious how to improve both production and mixing and mastering techniques, Sigvard is on a constant growth in sound. Do not expect anything but detailed tracks, full of organic and human changes, going from pure direct techno to very complex IDM tracks through ambient soundscapes. Sigvard will not limit himself, the only thing in common will be his love of music and machinery.

Tom Hades @ Thé Dansant Kit Kat (1.2.2025)

Sigvard is a techno artist and producer from Belgium. Grown from a project from artist Tom Hades, Sigvard has returned to his stripped down arrangements and use of limited instruments in the studio. This has led to a more focused and direct sound that still retains the power and emotion of his earlier work.
Sigvard's music is influenced by a wide range of artists, from early pioneers like Kraftwerk and Afrika Bambaataa to more contemporary acts like Underworld and Laurent Garnier. This diverse range of influences can be heard in his music, which often blends elements of different styles together to create something unique.

"Unknown Territory starts 2017 with a bang by welcoming Belgian producer Tom Hades for his debut EP on the imprint. We loved his great remix of Balthazar & JackRock on UT026 & this is more on the same. 'Saturation & 'Unstable' are 2 dance floor bombs. To round things off we have our very own Lex Gorrie on remix duties."

Perc - Look What Your Love Has Done To Me (Perc Trax)

Belgium based Tom Hades has become as something of a tastemaker in today’s world of techno. 
With years of experience in playing shows & even more in producing he exactly knows how to stick out of the masses with his really own signature sound. 
Tom started making music with his long-time friend Marco Bailey, with whom he also had his first releases with on labels like Drumcode. Techno always was, and still is, the only kind of music Tom could express his very own vision of music with. 
Tom’s sound always has a strong emphasis on straightforward baselines and eternal catching melodies – it is made for dancing! Often Tom also brings a certain melancholy to it, which enables a really unique listening experience. The focus on a typical Hades track is also always on strong percussion elements by bringing a fresh vibe to the end product, that saturates his audience as well as his fellow producer and DJ colleagues. 
His productions obviously align well with the selections Tom makes while being behind the decks. A set of Tom always focuses on keeping the tempo and strong melodies, while adjusting a certain groove. His sets combine classic productions, which he showcases in his weekly classic Sunday picks, with more current ones. For Tom creating the atmosphere through groove & strong repetitive melodies is the main goal. 
This year will see Tom releasing his productions on international renown labels, as well as expanding his global tour schedule. Tom Hades is a steady part of today’s techno scene!
