The seventh release on SPAZIOTEMPO, the 4/4 side of Where We Met, marks Rambal Cochet’s full gas debut on the label.

The title track Ambientica is a proggy weapon that brings acid vibes and techy rhythms in a perfect balance. East Block, the other track on the A side, explores dreamier melodies with a punchy structure.

The B1, Tidal Types, is a techy prog weapon with ethnic samples and clear 90ies reminders and Underwater Armour, the closing track, seals it up with more trancy evolution and yeah, we can’t get enough of em!

"Drifting through the endless void, I find solace in the quiet chaos of time and space folding in on itself. My spacecraft Paradox glitches constantly, sending me hurtling through centuries and galaxies at random, but I’m honestly into it. Each jump brings me to new moments in time, and each encounter with objects feels like a fleeting ripple in an infinite ocean. I've met sentient beings, sharing brief moments with them, then always leave, watching their timelines fade into the distance as Paradox carries me to another era. Timelessness has become my constant companion, offering me a peace that no anchored reality ever could. 

Right now, I’m reflecting on a stunning exoplanet I just briefly visited. Like on many places with existing life, the beings there seemed to be in synchronized movement to a rhythm coming from the planet’s core, being piped in from a network of presumably other nearby planets, communicating like the trees from that one planet that ate itself. To my surprise, I suddenly had a deep craving to be in sync with them, but their shared rhythm was floating in and out for me like it was occasionally being smothered by a soft pillow. And sometimes it would echo all around me, ringing out of sync with their communal timing - but I moved to it nonetheless. The other beings didn’t seem to mind that I was out of sync, and we all moved together, as I embodied this lonely echo in my temporary quest for connection. As I left a bit later, floating on toward wherever I was headed next, I tapped into my own familiar inner rhythm, untethered and on the loose."

PlayPlay combines their penchant for percussion and bass with nostalgic samples & dreamy synths in both their DJ sets & music production. Their sound is inspired by years of clubbing, crate digging and the sounds they grew up dancing to - 90s club anthems, jungle, breakbeat hardcore, minimal wave, classic house and old school hip-hop. With releases out on labels such as Sorry Records, Clasico and Worst Behavior, as well as a slew of self-releases and collaborations, PlayPlay has been slowly and steadily amassing a thumping discography over the years.

Based in NYC, PlayPlay currently hosts two parties: Breaking Capacity, dedicated to all things breaks, and Satisfaction of What’s to Come, celebrating the many iterations of house music. In their home state of NC, they co-host PARADOX, a party exploring the timelessness of early rave music.

Hush w/ Jon XVM - Subtle Radio - 19/12/2024

Standing on Berghain floor, Monday morning 11 am during their 20-year anniversary closing, tiredly dancing and smiling, looking around at happy yet exhausted faces of those who made it this far. Flowers scattered across the dance floor, handed out by the staff. Dancing with my friends, thinking of those who had already left the party and how happy I am to be living in a city full of quality music, I decided was time: I really wanted to record my first set now.
Inspired by the amazing music I experienced over the weekend, I wanted to put exactly that energy into my very first recording, which you can hear here. 
For me this set is more like a flow than a story. The opening track sets the tone for the middle part, followed by a slow but fine build-up of what I consider as quality tracks full of grooves and good moods. 
I close with the same track as Ryan Elliott and Ogazón did after their 8hr b2b ride at Panorama Bar this March, which was the first 2024 Klubnacht for me and marked the start of getting even deeper into music. 
At some parts I wish I could mix even smoother but still for now I’m very happy with this set.
Have fun and Enjoy, C <3

DATENIGHT @ Club Bradshaw

Proud to present you our third RETROFUTUR compilation, including 6 tracks by our most regular artists.

Endrik Schroeder opens the ball with the pure warehouse banger "Automated" ! The track's sonic intensity never falters, driven by a relentless rhythmic structure and saturated synthetic textures. The modulated layers and the syncopated break recreate the visceral urgency worthy of the underground raves of the 90s.

With "Happy End," Brandski distils a contagious euphoria, designed to set the dancefloor ablaze with collective joy. A leading figure of the Italian-French new wave, he creates a track as jubilant as it is unstoppable, where rhythmic mastery flirts with festive instinct. An invitation to luminous abandon: arms raised, shared smiles, communion guaranteed.

With "Eldorado" John Lord Fonda reaffirms his status as a key ambassador of French techno on the international scene. The track unfolds a relentless, extremely tense groove, where darkness becomes driving tension. A rigorous, almost martial sound signature, serving an uncompromising vision.

"White Light" by Panthera is a polished track that transports us on a euphoric journey. The heavy, incisive kick blends with atmospheric layers and heady arpeggios, creating a constant tension that culminates in thunderous drops. The whole thing is supported by a deep, vibrant bassline, typical of the 90s rave scene.

Once again, Berlin's My Secret Playground stands out as the architect of a muscular German nu-disco, flirting with the boundaries of techno. "Don't Panic" combines percussive pulses and dark tension, while distilling subtle reminiscences of the disco aesthetic. A masterful sonic hybrid, between retro hedonism and contemporary intensity.

Club Mayz delivers a masterful closing performance with "Tonight I Have To Hide", an electro track fueled by the raw heritage of Detroit techno and the dark textures of EBM. The track combines dramatic tension and synthetic precision in a nocturnal and introspective aesthetic.
