Brace yourself for a gale-force whirlwind of hammering beats and robotic groans, this one’s an unremitting hour of dizzying and densely packed rhythms. By all accounts, Japan is a must-stop destination for techno lovers, the wealth of sounds in its export ledger reveal a strong culture for parties and music production; from north to south, the country more than pulls its weight. A little known corner on the northernmost island of Hokkaido is home to this next guest. By now, OCCA’s a local fixture, whose galloping techno has fired up crowds at Future Terror, Gong, Exit the Labyrinth and Balance, as well as ravers from his very own Archiv parties held at legendary Sapporo mainstay Precious Hall. Intro over, now for the music: his techno is threatening and mercurial, an ever-mutating patchwork of frenzied rhythms and throbbing synths. Bassiani Podcast 184 is an hour of pure techno chaos, supercharged beats from this esoteric 4/4 master.

You Forgot - Kieth Flack “nihilism” 4. 28. 2024

deep, dubby and groove-filled session from one of our favourite artists who’s music we can’t get enough of, andy martin.

andy has such a distinctive sound, it’s so easy to recognise one of his tracks in a mix as he bridges together his mexican and jamaican roots through a futuristic style that spans across techno and dub leaning towards rich textural influences. it’s honestly quite hard for me to go a mix or radio show without including one of his andy’s tracks. his output is strong with his first release out in 2009 and has been steady ever since! whether that’s self-released, via his imprint mole audio, that he runs alongside didier dlb and where you’ll find collaborations with lee scratch perry and gavsborg, via labels such as ssensorial and discos movimiento or his ambient works which have led to andy performing in musuems, art galleries and festivals like mutek. there’s a touch of andy martin in every corner.

Untitled 909 Podcast 222: Andy Martin

A recording of Sapphire Slows playing a dj/live hybrid set at The Labyrinth 2024 on Sunday morning, October 13.

The Labyrinth 2024 - Sapphire Slows (dj/live hybrid)

imus is a Tokyo-based DJ born in 1995 and started her career around 2020. She often plays at
various techno parties in Tokyo and other venues around all over japan, such as Keep Hush
Tokyo(2022) and Future Terror(2023), making her a compelling presence in Tokyo's
underground music scene and beyond.
Her DJ style and sound are heavily inspired by spiritual and experimental music, deep listening scene and the artisanal selector culture of small venue in Tokyo. Her DJ is musically and three-dimensionally structured around an experimental sound exploring the eclectic points of mind-trip and physicality, the functional grooves of various dance music, a preoccupation with mutant
sound. It is a playful and daring narrative.

It is a 1h acid slow dance journey by imus, a lover of solid and raw techno and electro, where machine electronic sounds and organic sounds intersect and displace from techno to trance feeling.
