Berlin-based genderfluid DJ and producer https://soundcloud.com/asa-808 is back with a new high-octane acid techno release, mastered by Moomin and out on the TOYS Berlin imprint.

Following their successful GROOVE and XLR8R podcast appearances, the release of their album "Boy, crush", a collaboration with Dark Sky, and the success of their recent singles "SOMA" („a divine climax“, according to DJ Mag) and "Love No Matter What", which collectively garnered 400,000 streams, ASA 808 is back with an offering that showcases their unique musical artistry and energy.

The first track "COLOR" featuring Séverine is a bold club music composition with an untamable energy woven around a decade-old vocal recording of the outstanding french singer, who already left her marks on ASA's recent album. With unexpected acid hooks and trance gate effects, "COLOR" takes listeners on an impelling journey filled with pulsating beats, surprising twists and bass lines.

The second track "BLIND" is a highly effective acid techno bomb that ignites dancefloors within seconds. With its forceful uptempo groove and acid bassline, "BLIND" exemplifies ASA 808's cutting-edge production skills, which have attracted attention from industry heavyweights such as XLR8R, TRAX, DJ Mag, Inverted Audio, Slothboogie, When We Dip and received support from tastemaker DJs including Avalon Emerson, Barker, Ben Sims, Marcel Dettmann, Pangaea, Perel and Tijana T.

It is no surprise that ASA was recently acknowledged as one of the "Best Producers" and "Best Newcomers" in Groove Magazine’s readers' poll.

TOYS012: ASA 808 – COLOR / BLIND

TOYS Berlin residency on SWU.FM / RinseFM

Following their first ‘DJ TOYS’ compilation, that was celebrated by DJ Mag, played at Berghain several times and drew support from DJs like Âme, Avalon Emerson, Barker, Baumecker and Ben Sims, queer feminist party collective and record label TOYS Berlin are back with their second ‘DJ TOYS’ installment. Representing the boundary-pushing sound spectrum of the TOYS universe, up-and-coming producers DAEDE, Eklekta, ASA 808, Jon Selbo, Jakob Mäder and OSO are transcending UK bass/garage, Trance and House in five forward-thinking underground gems.

Artists: ASA 808, DAEDE, Eklekta, Jakob Mäder, Jon Selbo, OSO
Title: DJ TOYS #02 compilation
Label: TOYS Berlin
Cat No: TOYS013
Release Date: 17th May 2024

Eklekta - To The Max
"To The Max" is an ode to the underground. Raw and unpolished, the upfront rave stabs battle with the wobbly UK bassline. With its bouncing punk attitude, this ravey mid-tempo UK garage track aims for nothing less than to get the club bouncing. In this new release on TOYS Berlin, Eklekta is all about embracing his musical roots in UK Garage and adding some fresh vibes to Berlin's diverse music scene.

Jon Selbo - Keep Ur Luv
This fast-paced, synth-driven track is a strong blend of energy and emotion. Troubleshoot Recordings co-founder Jon Selbo weaves together intricate layers of synthesized chords, driving baselines with ethereal vocal snippets that elevate the track, whilst adding layers of depth. With a tempo that relentlessly propels the listener forward, this song captures the essence of a night that refuses to end, embodying the euphoric highs and introspective lows of the club experience.

DAEDE & ASA 808 - Somebody Like Me
Following the success of their collaboration "Love No Matter What," which has amassed almost 500k streams, DAEDE and ASA 808 have joined forces once more for their newest release, "Somebody Like Me." This track effortlessly captures a bittersweet melancholy, set against a captivating rolling groove, reminiscent of a long-lost love letter from a past crush. Interestingly, ASA actually penned a love letter to DAEDE when they were just 8 years old, though fortunately, this song isn't about that particular letter. Despite the tumultuous nature of falling in love, it's heartwarming to see such a lasting friendship blossom from it, now gifting us all with yet another piece of beautiful music.

Jakob Mäder - 1991
You’re gonna hear the 90s inspiration out of this one. Jakob Mäders „1991“ refers to house and techno from the past and provides what the dance floor nowadays needs. Sometimes a proper groove and some powerful chords are enough. A simple arrangement and not too many effects make it rave friendly.

OSO - Reminiscence
For his debut, OSO delivers a humble but deeply emotional track. “Reminiscence” wants to make you forget about everything and remember what it was like to just be happy. Its beautiful layered melodies are blissful and melancholic, the groove evokes the simple pleasure of 90s chart hits, and its trance-tinged climax washes over you like a childhood memory.

The new EP is a sonic invitation to slow down, connect, and celebrate the freedom of being your authentic self.

@asa-808 lands on @toysberlin with their next two-tracker, 'COLOR / BLIND', the first of which featuring a decade-old vocal recording from French singer Séverine.

"I wanted to use this release (just before Black history month in the UK) as an opportunity to honour the Black heritage of house and techno and to point out how techno parties in Europe are often predominantly white, with many attendees unaware of its roots," ASA 808 says on this release. "I think it's crucial to honour techno's Black origins while appreciating its global evolution, preserving its cultural and historical significance."

Following their first ‘DJ TOYS’ compilation, that was celebrated by DJ Mag, played at Berghain several times and drew support from DJs like Âme, Avalon Emerson, Barker, Baumecker and Ben Sims, queer feminist party collective and record label TOYS Berlin are back with their second ‘DJ TOYS’ installment. Representing the boundary-pushing sound spectrum of the TOYS universe, up-and-coming producers DAEDE, Eklekta, ASA 808, Jon Selbo, Jakob Mäder and OSO are transcending UK bass/garage, Trance and House in five forward-thinking underground gems.

This fast-paced, synth-driven track is a strong blend of energy and emotion. Troubleshoot Recordings co-founder Jon Selbo weaves together intricate layers of synthesized chords, driving baselines with ethereal vocal snippets that elevate the track, whilst adding layers of depth. With a tempo that relentlessly propels the listener forward, this song captures the essence of a night that refuses to end, embodying the euphoric highs and introspective lows of the club experience.

PREMIERE: Jon Selbo  - Keep Ur Luv

ASA 808 & DAEDE, Eklekta, Jakob Mäder, Jon Selbo, and OSO are on board the delicious volume II of the compilation series “DJ TOYS” of the super cool German queer & feminist collective, party series, and label TOYS Berlin. Featuring UK Bass/Garage, Trance, and House flavours, the VA fails big time to disappoint and manages to deliver a savoury five-course meal filled not only with peak-time juicy fares but also laid-back zesty refreshments. 

Hailing from Stuttgart, Jakob Mäder is the mastermind behind the track we were solicited to review/premiere. With well-received cuts issued on vital imprints such as Midnight Operators, theBasement Discos, Bedrock, Frank Music, Mélopée, Nothing Is Real, Mister T. Records, and his very own Constant Change, just to name a few, he has become one of the most prolific and solicited artists of his generation amid the House Music scene. 

Described as “rave friendly” in the official PR text due to the ingenious simplicity of its elaboration, “1991” is served with the perfect amount of 90s dressing – not too much, not too little so that you can scarf it down without getting stuffed. For the recipe, chef Mäder focused on “what the dance floor nowadays needs” and seasoned its delicacy with a fatty bassline and saucy synth chords. Einfach lecker!

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Beatport page of the label: https://www.beatport.com/label/toys-berlin/58976

After his first breakthrough ‘Túrána Hott Kurdís’ hit close to 1 million plays on Vimeo and YouTube, without promotion, Asa spent a year meditating in the mountains without friends and family, with ambitions to become a buddhist monk.
After then deciding to relocate to Berlin, he quickly recommenced making music. Over the course of several EPs with the Berlin based TOYS label, releases with his post-rock project ‘hasta la otra méxico!’ and an acclaimed three-tracker on George Fitzgerald's https://soundcloud.com/manmakemusic imprint, Asa has established himself as something far beyond a standard dance music producer. With every release, he hones his off- kilter approach to electronic music, continually adding new strokes of colour to his catalogue. His debut mini-album is no exception: every track bleeds with melodic intricacy and brooding arrangements, showcasing Asa’s unique capacity to flip the script.

TOYS Mix #039 ASA 808 ambient mix

berlin based queer fundraiser party collective. https://soundcloud.com/swufm residency show & record label curated by https://soundcloud.com/asa-808; TOYS events & releases: https://toysberlin.de bookings: booking@toysberlin.de 

take off your shoes. make yourself at home. dance with us and let us praise our new lords and saviors of forward-thinking electronic music, who saved our souls from conservative tech-house cardinals and testosterone overdosed unitary techno shittery. in the last years excited hipsters have been throwing words such as "techno", "breaks" and "trance" around like confetti. TOYS simply places all our saints (such as Avalon Emerson, Benjamin Damage, Credit 00, Cryptofauna, Cyan85, Dark Sky, Dauwd, Elkka, Epikur, Glenn Astro, Lea Occhi, Medlar, Moomin, Poly Chain, Redshape, Sam Goku, Session Victim, Slim Soledad, Stimming, Tom Trago, Trikk, Will Saul & Youandewan) in a number of diverse and torrid settings and allows you to (un-)dress, play, free yourselves and dance for everybody's cantilevered satisfaction (and other good causes) while truly impelling tracks unfold. a divine service in a dimly lit queer feminist, sex-positive, post-modern church of pulsating indulgence.

Past A-Z: 
Ada, Anna Kost, Avalon Emerson, Bobbie*, Breach, Chambray, Christian Löffler, Credit 00, Cryptofauna, Cyan85, Dark Sky, Dauwd, Ejeca, Elkka, Eluize, Ena Lind, Epikur, Frits Wentink, Glenn Astro, Glimpse/Dense & Pika, Huxley, Jacob Korn, Katiusha, Kidnap, Lando, Lawrence, Lea Occhi, Locked Groove, Lxury, Makeness, Marquis Hawkes, Medlar, Mike Dehnert, Moomin, Olaf Stuut, Poly Chain, Qzen, Redshape, Sam Goku, Seb Wildblood, Session Victim, Slim Soledad, Stimming, Sophia Saze, The Golden Filter, The Maghreban, Throwing Snow, Tom Demac, Tom Trago, Trikk, TRP, Will Saul, Youandewan, xxxy, Zola & many more.
