Art Bei Ton Podcast 037: Reka Zalan
( @reka-zalan )

For the 37th podcast of our series, we are very happy to share with you the recording of Reka Zalan's set from our online event “Monument x Art Bei Ton” (24.02.21)

This online event, focusing on deep techno and visual arts, was created as a 2 hours immersive mental journey, between hypnotic sounds and a glitchy digital world.

Catch the full video of this live stream on YouTube, featuring a special VJing performance from Sasha Smirnova: https://youtu.be/PiTTv7PEhBw

More info about Reka Zalan:

Reka Zalan is a Berlin-based Techno DJ and promoter, co-organizing the ://Elements events in the notorious club ABOUT BLANK, where she recently became a resident. 

Always striving for deep and spheric moods built on impulsive rhythms, Reka Zalan's DJ sets are mainly characterized by gloomy vibes and trippy elements. Besides her passion for driving Techno tunes, she also loves various forms of Bass music, percussion-driven productions or experimental beatless soundscapes.

  In her everyday life, Reka works at Hard Wax, one of the city's most famous record stores. Her great enthusiasm for selecting outstanding releases to play and share in her sets drove her to develop a collection of both vinyl records as well as digital files.  
She also plays under the name No Life Signal, a B2B duo with THNTS.

Augusto Taito brings this excellent EP to @chapter-records.

Two techno tracks from the Argentinian actually based in Europe. "Broken Bond" has a powerful base and a hypnotic synth line with a mix of sounds that give freshness. "Citaron" is a trip that despite being mental, will take you directly to the dance floor.

This second Various Artists release on the label once again brings together some talented artists from around the globe. With a focus on strong, timeless sounds, there is a common thread flowing through the productions of the five artists being showcased. 

French artist Blenk opens the package with ‘Spell’, a pounding offbeat piece that is guaranteed to stand out in any techno set. With precise sound design, a devastating low-end and uncanny vocal-like stabs, it is both unique and functional. The Blenk sound is carving a path of its own! Following this is William Arist’s ‘Like Everybody Wants Now’. The Uruguayan artist has been in the game for some time, and his production experience is on full display here. Much like the A1, this track is focussed with its sound design, but equally functional for DJ sets. Taking things back to four-to-the-floor, this A2 is an essential for the peak-time dance-floor given its driving energy and heavy beats. 

The B-Side opens with ‘Mantis’, a loopy DJ tool by UK producer Yant. It combines hypnotic elements with classic drum rhythms in an arrangement that carefully ebbs and flows - making it suitable both as a standalone piece or layered within a mix. The B2 takes things in a slightly different direction as American artist Ari Atai showcases his Detroit-influenced cut ‘Signal Phase’. With a foundation of analog drums and bleepy synths, the track builds with careful sound manipulations and closes out the release perfectly with its moody feel. 

The digital bonus comes by way of India’s Dotdat. ‘Polyslave’ is a full force production that was made with one clear purpose: to do damage on the dancefloor. With minimal elements, it’s some powerful drum programming that carries the arrangement whilst subtle synth parts add a bit of extra spice to the production.

OECUS Premiere // Nørbak

Extract from "Flesh To Ashes LP " [WU66LP] - Warm Up Recordings
Release date: January 29th, 2021.

The portuguese scfi maker Nørbak is back home after his Faktor EP from January 2019. These non clubbing days look like the perfect scenario for listening to long distance works, so here you have this brand new album to enjoy at your private soundsystem. Flesh to Ashes will be released both physically and digitally, with an extra track on the downloadable version.
Nørbak is well known for his precision and deepness, always pushing forward production wise, focusing on the details and sound design aspects.
The album gravitates between beatless cuts, broken beats, profound exercises and virtual dancefloor weapons. Intro and Camera (the extra digital track) belong to the first category, The third morality is the broken cut, Flesh to ashes and Land of sin explore the deepest side of techno and the rest of the tracklist is about peak time tracks.The overall feeling while listening to this album is travelling out there where no gravity is the mood, swinging among stars and constellations, landing on undiscovered planets … a landscape with no viruses or facemasks or repression. A collection of attemporal tracks that will surely pass the test of time and be ready to be playable whenever this nightmare ends.
