BCCO Mix Series 604: Uväll

This is my first ever Dubstep mix, built from some of my favourite tracks in the genre. It was a refreshing step outside of my usual comfort zone, and I really enjoyed exploring how the flow and timings work differently compared to what I’m used to.

Mikrotakt - Tresor debut (29.10.25)

DJ Hockey loves music that is strange, beautiful, and energetic. By selecting tracks designed to stimulate both your brain and body, his sets slowly unfurl and reveal a kaleidoscope of colours and emotions. He integrates his queer essence into mixes by selecting tracks with bite and sass — whether that be a jacking and energetic percussive loop, sultry low-end energy, or intriguing ear candy. One thing is certain when experiencing a DJ Hockey set: you're going IN! 

With well received releases including his debut vinyl release on Fixed Rhythms, in addition to various digital EP’s on PPRZ and Modelfuture, DJ Hockey is propelling his signature brand of warp speed techno with his productions and is working on more for 2025. 

DJ Hockey started PPRZ records, mix series and with Adam 2 in addition to curating events with the intention to showcase techno from the PNW and beyond.

Chiming in for Bassiani’s anniversary party on October 10th comes an exceptional talent from the Asturian coast and Architectural’s third appearance in the Podcast series. Since 2004, Juan Rico’s been holding the line as Reeko, a stand-in for blistering industrial rhythms, founder of Mental Disorder and founding partner of Spanish techno bastion PoleGroup. Come 2010, a new incarnation emerged under the stage name Architectural, a faceless and assumedly authorless variant of his that played on rich textures, cinematic tones and a heavier focus on the architecture of sound itself. In the studio he manipulates and records sounds in real time, allowing for a greater degree of spontaneity than working with standalone parts would otherwise permit. No longer incognito, Architectural offers a brand of ambient techno charged through with Jazz and references from the world of film that pulsates and slithers, crackles and shifts. From his earliest releases on his eponymous Architectural imprint, through Semantica, Non Series and others, his music has established itself as a touchstone for avant-garde techno centred on body and dancefloor, and his future’s sure to keep delivering more of his monolith beats. Bassiani Podcast 287 is a truly impressive addition to the series, a sweeping three-hour montage of gritty textures, modulated frequencies and punchy basslines recorded live at Bassiani.

Knotweed Podcast 46 (2025 favourites)

This mix is a homage - to everyone out there creating, just by being. I’ve come to realize - art isn’t a race, it’s a reflection. We’re not here to compete, we’re here to express. Each of us plays our own game, on our own field, shaped by presence, not by pressure. There’s no scoreboard in creation. Only truth, and the courage to let it flow through us. The more I let go of comparing, the more I connect. The more I stop forcing, the more things start to move on their own. We’re all contributing to the same pulse - this living, breathing thing we call culture. And maybe that’s what it’s really about: being, not chasing. Creating,
not competing. Just being the art itself.

Shattered Horizon - Hard Techno Instrumental DJ

Reka Zalan is a Berlin-based DJ, born to a Hungarian father and a German-Dutch mother. Her sets unfold with a keen sense of focus, shifting between hypnotic depth and percussive drive. Navigating through different shades of techno with an open heart, she weaves together trippy, sometimes psy-tinged tension, rattling grooves, mental maelstroms, and uplifting momentum into one coherent arc. 

Off the dancefloor, Reka has been part of the Hard Wax record store team since 2019, where she continues to deepen and broaden her musical horizons. She is also a member of coppi, a cultural space and collective in Lichtenberg that hosts weekly community-led studio sessions. Before fully immersing herself in club culture, she worked at the Berlin Music Commission, supporting the city’s music industry network.

Whether behind the decks or behind the scenes, Reka is driven by curiosity and a deep sense of connection with like-minded people — always aiming to build bridges through a shared love of sound and collective experience.

Dutch techno producer Troy (@troy_techno), born and based in The Hague, has long been a steady presence in the deeper realms of contemporary techno. Known for his timeless sound on labels such as Klockworks, Non Series, and KEY Vinyl, Troy continues to explore the intersection of raw energy and refined sound design.

Function's Infrastructure New York now welcomes Troy with his first Double EP 'Echoes of Ancient Life' — a profound excavation of both his past and the evolving trajectory of his sonic identity.

Composed entirely with the OB-6, the release channels inspiration from ancient and forgotten civilizations — their echoes resonating through layers of analog warmth and hypnotic repetition. Across these 8 tracks, Troy constructs a continuum between the mystical and the mechanical: deep, tunneling synth lines, evolving textures, and precise rhythmic flow.

From the slower beginnings to the more uptempo and propulsive closing chapters, Echoes of Ancient Life maintains a firm gaze on the dancefloor while delving into the archeology of sound. Recorded at Pollux Studios in The Hague, this release captures the timeless spirit of techno — both as a ritual and as a forward-moving force.
