Ute Mix Series #51 | Aleksa Alaska

@loekfrey is a name that now sits up there with some of the most exciting talents to have emerged from the Dutch scene in recent times. It's his unique blend of IDM, techno, breakbeat and drum & bass that has turned so many heads, not least with his Decipher album on home label Omen Wapta which was a widescreen soundscape of varying intensities and tempos. His ability to veer from the intricate and experimental to the hallucinatory and vibrant is second to none as he proves with his mix for us this week. 

It is a special one that is fully live and made up entirely of his own productions so makes for a perfect window into his world. Inside you will find 60 atmospheric minutes that soon immerse you in cinematic cosmic ambiance and hurried minimal rhythms embellished with ghoulish voices and dark undertones that unite both body and mind. It's a sleek and linear journey defined by the constant presence of a supple and pulsing bassline that transports you to distant future worlds in style.

Dekmantel Podcast 448 - Loek Frey

This mix is a live recording of Wendy’s opening set from the second ‘Familiegilde’ party, a DIY concept born in the summer of 2024. The idea is simple: good friends dancing to great music and having a great time together in the undisturbed nature on the outskirts of Copenhagen. The set is a trippy 135 BPM journey, moving from minimalistic sounds to a Goa trance selection that emphasizes dynamic and syncopated grooves.

"Conceived as a vessel dedicated to a single frequency, Monolith 45 is born to trace the lineage of progressive trance - that tribal, hypnotic, and ceremonial sound that carved its path during the early 2000s, and which today we reclaim with reverence. Each release stands as a stone marker along this continuum: timeless signals that resonate equally with memory and vision. As with the broader work of Organic Signs, this new line will follow a dual path: rescuing forgotten gems from the past while also curating new music that embodies the same spirit. Monolith 45 becomes the place where past and present intertwine, shaping a narrative that honors tradition while opening new doors for exploration. The first monolith in the series carries with it two totems of the genre:

On the B-side, Ticon – Lo Mi Hi, a track that saw the light in 2001 on Digital Structures, one of the most influential labels of that era. Ticon are nothing short of mythical within this universe — pioneers whose sound blurred borders between deep grooves, psychedelic textures, and progressive structures, leaving an indelible mark that still resonates with dancers and producers worldwide.

With Monolith 45, we seek not only to preserve these transmissions but to project them into the present: to reawaken a sound that was always more than music, a tribal pulse, a ritual language that invited bodies and minds into collective trance.

This is our homage, our offering, and our way of extending the path forward."

[PREMIERE] Ticon - Lo Mi Hi  [MNLTH45-I]

Ahead of our two-year anniversary event this Friday, we are presenting a 60-minute studio-recorded mix by our founder and curator Yhii, that aims to capture the essence of Back&forth, with its constant ebbs and flows. A stripped-back reflection of motion, repetition, and quiet persistence.

With You, Sacha Ketterlin distills emotion into pure form.  A single arpeggiated synth line carries the pulse — steady, hypnotic, and fragile — while long sustained textures unfold around a solitary voice that whispers “I say I love you”.  In its restraint, You reveals the space between presence and absence, affection and silence.

As the ninth release on Intumi, the EP continues Ketterlin’s exploration of emotional minimalism and sonic intimacy. Every element breathes with intention, each sound is a fragment of something unspoken.  You is not a declaration, but a transmission — a quiet message sent into the unknown, searching for its listener.

The release includes two distinctive reinterpretations. Aear0n expands the original into an ethereal landscape, dissolving rhythm into atmosphere and memory. Kenji Tanaka transforms the piece into a long, fluid techno journey, rich in subtle detail and tension, revealing another dimension of the same emotion.

You is both a name and a question — a reflection of what remains when love is not returned, and words fade into the echo of sound.
