For the 10th episode of the Unknown Movements podcast, we have an exclusive live set from Roam — a duo made up of French producers @dc11music and @kerst-techno. The two met through their respective girlfriends, who’d known each other since they were children, and once they realised they shared the same taste in music, they began working together as a live act. Their approach is improvisational, using a modular synth (operated by dc11) and Ableton (operated by Kerst), enriched with multiple effects. Whenever the duo meet in Brittany, they aim to play dark, brooding, and rolling techno without interruption, and yet with enough space to surprise the listeners and dancers, as well as the performers themselves.

Unknown Movements Podcast 10 - Roam (LIVE)

For the 11th episode of the Unknown Movements podcast, we welcome Glasgow’s @kairogen — the artist who’s been creating the beautiful textural paintings we’ve been using on the covers for our recent releases. Her artwork has also adorned records from Soma, Aedi, No Signal, and Ancestral Process, and 2021 has seen her debut her own musical compositions on compilations from Soma and Space Textures. We feel incredibly fortunate to be working with such a talented artist, and it’s a great pleasure to have her on the podcast with a selection of deep and hypnotic tracks to see us through the weekend.

Unknown Movements podcast 11 - Kairogen

We’re back! We let the podcast take a bit of a break to focus on the label — and just take the foot off the pedal for a bit while the general craziness of 2020 played out — but for our 6th episode, we’ve got something very special for you: a fully live hardware set by the awesome @vlaeminckofficial.

Recorded exclusively for Unknown Movements in his studio in Granada, Spain, using an Analog Rytm, Octatrack, Minilogue, SH-01A, and Evolver, this is a glorious hour of deep, dark, and trippy techno — the perfect soundtrack to these times.

GIVE U MY BODY

I’ve been an @Eomac fan for a long time and Ian has been a huge supporter of our label’s output this year, so it’s an absolute pleasure and honour to welcome him onto the Unknown Movements podcast.

With his creative output spanning so many genres across his many collaborative projects — Lakker, Lena Andersson, and noeverything to name just a few — as well of course as his own monickers Eomac, EeOo, and OMIC, not to mention his role as label owner of Eotrax and resident DJ at Dublin Digital Radio, it’ll come as no surprise that Ian has curated a truly eclectic hour of music for us well beyond the realms of techno. Thank you, Ian!

The label’s final podcast of the year comes from yours truly. If you’ll forgive the self indulgence, I decided to do a 2020 retrospective mix to collect all of the music I’ve put out this year. Most of it came out on Unknown Movements, but there are also a couple of tracks on @dissonanzerecordings and @soptikorg. Hope you enjoy it. LOTS more on its way already for next year.

Unknown Movements podcast 08 - Other Form

We’re back for our first podcast of 2021 and extremely excited to welcome @psychic-health, who’ve put together an incredible selection of their music, including many unreleased tracks. It’s a huge honour to host them — their self-titled debut album, released on Time No Place in 2015, remains one of our absolute favourite records of recent years.

Gabriel Mounsey and Devon Steffens have been producing and performing their brand of cinematic techno and ambient under the guise of Psychic Health since 2015. Along with producing, the international duo perform hardware-heavy live PAs. The psychedelic and atmospheric combine with driving techno, a mixture perfect for headphones or the dance floor. Their tracks have been featured in the Netflix series Sense 8. Devon also hosts the Triptronics Research series of live performances, with over 400 live electronic performances and counting. A new EP is anticipated early this year.
