Mix Spotlight

M.F.S: Observatory aka Mattia Turchetti is a name you might be familiar with due to the prolific output in recent years on a host of integral labels such as Techno Rebels Only, My Techno Weighs A Ton, Hydrozoa, and Dense & Pika’s enormous, Kneaded Pains, a label of which Mattia will return to in the months to come. Whilst pouring out an established and polished sound on these heavy hitting imprints Mattia continues to grow the Observatory Music label, varying between productions from himself and fellow producers he follows closely.
Moving forward Mattia has turned a new corner in his career, after years of development honing his essential and original sound he explores new territory, leaning towards the darker techno end of the spectrum, maintaining the same animated energy he is already known for. His prominent atmospheres are carefully crafted in the studio, and this reflects into his storytelling DJ sets which flicker between different moods that the talented Italian has collected over the years in his home country and his current home of, London. The natural knack in the booth has seen Mattia take his sound to several hotspots including Barcelona, Helsinki, London and Italy.
A prime example of raw technique combined with passion is what we have here, a never ending story of evolution with his sound constantly changing, finding new leases of life, and pockets of creativity from different aspects of his path so far. M.F.S: Observatory may be receiving a curious and gritty new chapter of his journey, but the key elements and beliefs stay the same, and long may that continue.

From the smoky intimacy of his early club nights to his current status as a festival fixture and respected figure on labels like Rekids and Drumcode, Faraone’s path has been defined by instinct, authenticity, and a refusal to compromise.

“With Journeys Into Sound, I wanted to explore the full range of what techno means to me. From deep, dubby grooves to peak-time energy, but always with soul at the core. Toronto has shaped my sound as much as Detroit has inspired it, and this series is about connecting those worlds. Every mix is a reflection of the places and people that continue to move me”

RadioProspect 377 - Timekube

Italian-born and London-based, Mattia Turchetti, known as M.F.S: Observatory, has spent the past decade refining a sound that sits between engineering precision and raw club instinct.

His productions and DJ sets balance M.F.S: Obervatory's hypnotic repetition with emotional restraint, merging the discipline of a sound designer with the pulse of a dancefloor tactician. “My first musical memories come from home,” he begins. “My brother introduced me to electronic music, while my parents played Italian artists like Pino Daniele, Fabrizio De André, and Francesco De Gregori. That mix of emotion, melody, and rhythm shaped my ear from an early age. I started experimenting with drum machines and early software, fascinated by how rhythm could control a room. That curiosity slowly evolved into DJing and then producing my own music.”
The alias came later, carrying both geographical and philosophical weight. “I’m from a village facing Mount Vesuvio, where the observatory stands, and that idea of watching and listening from above felt powerful. We started as a trio, but over time it became my solo project. The name stayed because it reflects how I approach music: always observing, studying, and experimenting with sound.”

Yousef’s trajectory pivots on one early catalyst. Winning Muzik Magazine’s Bedroom Bedlam competition put him in front of the right booths at the right moment. His mix was raw but razor-sharp: three decks, two copies of tunes, mixing, chopping, loaded with Magic Sessions, Moodymann, DJ Rasoul, Basement Jaxx, and Daft Punk. Ministry of Sound booked him as the prize. Pacha Ibiza followed. Agents offered deals on the spot. A full-time career began immediately.

Liverpool shaped him. Early acid house. Late-rave grit. Weekly pilgrimages to Cream. “I can’t overstate how special Cream was… sweat dripping off the ceiling… it was the best clubbing experience I’ve ever had.” He studied the room long before he played it. Cream’s Annexe gave him the residency he had already imagined: six-hour underground house sessions in a room that defined a generation.

NUDE is a sub-brand of Data Transmission focusing on Techno.

The Luca Morris NUDE Techno podcast lands today and it hits hard from the opening bar. If you love driving grooves, rolling basslines, and that pulsing late night energy that never lets up, this episode is going to live in your favourites for a while.

Luca Morris is a legend in Northeast Italy and a steady force in European techno. More than twenty five years deep, he started with scratch culture and hip hop innovators before diving headfirst into club music. Residencies at Maskò, La Scala, and Aida shaped his early voice, and years of production locked in his signature sound. Big tracks like Lamu, Minuetto, Gypsy Woman, and the chart-crushing Born Slippy remix cemented him worldwide.

The mix on the NUDE Techno podcast shows why he has that reputation. It moves with confidence. It rumbles with weight. It feels like a sweaty warehouse at 3am with the lights low and the system pushed just right.

Luca drops huge moments throughout. His own heaters The Elephant, Back To Love, Back From More, Core Pressure, and that private Love Parade rework all punch through the mix. He lines them up alongside killers like Arjun Vagale Ultrasharp, Victor Ruiz Breathe, Enrico Sangiuliano Order In Chaos, Weska and Charles D The Answer, and Charlotte de Witte The Heads That Know. It is peak time fire from start to finish.

This is the NUDE Techno podcast doing what it does best. Raw energy. Tight selections. Pure club focus.
