Truancy Volume 308: Polygonia

With two major milestones upon us today, we're fortunate enough to be celebrating with one of the finest in electronic music. A new year is upon us and today we also reach a major podcast milestone, to celebrate we welcome none other than contemporary techno legend, DJ Nobu for MNMT 400.

With decades of experience and as founder of both acclaimed party ‘Future Terror’ and record label ‘Bitta’, DJ Nobu has slowly but surely turned from being one of Japan's finest, to one of the world’s most in demand selectors. A great friend of Monument who delivered an incredible closing set at our first ever Monument City Festival in 2023, we couldn’t be happier to be marking the occasion with him. 

For this very special mix Nobu presents a stunning introspective excursion through electronica and deeper shades to celebrate the two milestones.

Infinite thanks and gratitude to everyone who has made this journey over the last 12 years possible; from all the incredible artists we've been lucky enough to showcase to you, our beloved listeners.

Stay tuned in 2024 🖤

MNMT 400 : DJ Nobu

This has probably been one of the most requested sets ever if I'm being honest and is a masterclass 3hr journey from Donato.

Hypnotic, psychedelic, trippy, deep techno crafted with care and meticulous attention to detail, he really is a master in that regard and it was an absolute pleasure to have him play for us all those years ago. 

Having 2 3hr DJ sets on the same night was a bit of a rarity for us, mainly because we usually had so many live acts to accomodate at each party so it was nice to give both Mike and Donato ample room to do their thing at this one. I probably only caught a short amount of this set on the night but since then it is one I keep going back to listen to again and again. It's a great one for late night driving as well.

Jacopo Severitano, also known as Severja, is an Italian multi-disciplinary artist, DJ, and the visionary behind Midgar Records. 

Now based in Berlin, Severja has spent the past decade curating Midgar Records, shaping its distinct and aesthetically captivating identity. As a label owner he has ensured a sound aesthetic that defies genre categorization, but maintains a common thread of quality. With a diverse roster of artists including Agonis, Aa Sudd, Wata Igarashi, Tammo Hesselink, Polygonia, Forest Drive West, Ruff Cherry, and Keplrr to name a few, Midgar Records continually pushes the boundaries of electronic music, offering listeners an immersive and innovative auditory experience.

Severja’s versatile approach to DJing spans a broad spectrum of electronic music genres, including ambient, techno, drum and bass, experimental music, trance, and house to name a few. Severja is one of those artists that have full control of both the mental and physical realms when performing, and ensures to always surprise with a creative and challenging selection. 

In his podcast for Nachtblumen, Severja delves into his techno collection, presenting dubby cuts, rolling loopy rhythms, and layered textures that showcase his eclectic taste and deep understanding of music and sound. Severja continues to influence and innovate within the electronic music scene, consistently pushing boundaries and exploring new sonic landscapes.

We sat down for an in depth conversation to discuss Jacopo's artistic profile, inspirations and Midgar and the past 10 years of curating the label and contributing to the electronic music scene.

Atsushi Maeda, one of the founders and organizers of rural  festival, returned to the DJ booth this year after a 12-year absence.

The time he started his set rainfall was more intense, but despite the stormy weather, the audience danced enthusiastically until the end, creating an interactive techno piece that resembled a tug of war between the audience and the DJ. Enjoy a techno journey that deeply affects your body and spirit, as if you are running through a tunnel with no light in sight, surrounded by a sense of relief.

ruralの創設者・オーガナイザーの1人であるAtsushi Maedaが、今年は12年ぶりにruralのDJブースへと戻りました。降雨の激しさがより厳しくなる時間に始まったこのセットは、荒天にも関わらず多くのオーディエンスが熱狂的に踊ることで最後まで見届けられ、オーディエンスとDJによる綱引きのような相互作用的なテクノ作品へと仕上がりました。ruralが追い求める高品質なサウンドを象徴する存在であるAtsushi Maedaによって創られた、光の見えないトンネルの中を安堵に包まれながら走り抜けるテクノジャーニーをお楽しみください。

Berlin-based Keplrr has spent a decade crafting a signature sound that fuses ceremonial techno with driving house and minimal influences. Having made his start in Peckham’s underground scene, the UK artist quickly progressed from DJing at venues like Venue MOT, The Rising Sun, and Rye Wax, to playing key London clubs like FOLD, Corsica Studios, and The Cause.

His tracks, which have found homes on tastemaker labels like Midgar, Control Freak and Pressure Dome, create deep, immersive soundscapes that challenge the conventional boundaries of techno. Running through them is the core idea of ‘falling and out of a trip’, and considering that feeling from different angles. The end result is something between meditation and momentum; tension and warmth, all rendered with captivating subtlety and attention to detail. Meanwhile, his DJ sets offer sleek, hi-energy sounds paired with experimental rhythms, weightless blends, and rushes of melodic release.

Keep your eyes peeled for Keplrr’s next release coming out in November on GRACE, until then tune into this deep and dubby trip. Enjoy.
