A rising name in Berlin’s ever crowded pool of talents, Eerste Communie resident Windfuhr has been developing his own idiosyncratic persona at the junction of heavy-traction 4x4 rhythms and deep, hypnotic folds of intricate melodies and exotica-laced electronics. Minimal in essence but maximal in effect, his compositions bridge the gap between stripped-back functionality and dreamy escapology, neatly coordinating the throbbing cavalcade of racy uptempo machine funk with layered, modular-like transmissions as his feverish drum programming leads the charge. No doubt Windfuhr’s name is one you’ll hear a lot more in 2024.

Reclaim Your City 575 | Windfuhr

Kicking off full speed comes an hour of untrammelled techno from Belgian artist Phara. The Fuse Brussels resident has racked up quite a following with his club focused sound, both via slick releases as much as behind decks spinning vinyl-only sets. Post-punk, wave, EBM, electro, Detroit and Berlin provide the context for a curious talent that has published warped melodies on blue chip labels like Soma, SK Eleven, Stockholm LTD and Planet Rhythm. His off kilter earmark is available too via his ‘gimmick-free’ record label Phaaar, a more immediate and personal vessel for his own experiments in sound. And it’s not all off the shelf, 2022 saw him take his Korg EMX-1 onstage for a debut live performance that presents yet another side to his many-layered craft, and a new alias titled In Glass promises to reimagine both house and dubbier references. With bated breath comes this next instalment, powerful beats from the get go, tracks with striking forward momentum interwoven with atomic precision and a primary feeling for ambiance that doesn’t miss a trick. Phara taps a wealth of experience and knowledge of records for Bassiani Podcast 222, shadowy frequencies and volative basslines, everything you love about techno brought together by this prolific and multifaceted artist.

Sandrien at Frenzy XI

After her electrifying performance at Masada last May, we are thrilled to welcome back Anabel Arroyo to the CLOSERcast series for an exclusive mix!

A resident DJ at both Fold London and Laster Madrid, Anabel has built a stellar reputation for her intense, groove-driven sets that ignite dancefloors and whip crowds into frenzies. This allowed her to share the DJ booth with some of the biggest names in the scene, whilst developing and honing her signature style defined by raw energy and impeccable artistry.

Anabel’s sets are a masterclass in dancefloor dynamics, as they leave the crowd clinging onto every beat: seamless transitions, infectious rhythms, and a sophisticated interplay of layered bleeps and harmonic stabs characterize her sets, which linger in the minds of the listeners long after the music has stopped.

For the 31st episode of the Resilience podcast, we are pleased to present a DJ set by Gianluca Caiati, aka Kaiser.

Since his childhood in Italy, he has been passionate about electronic sounds, which led him to make a name for himself in the music scene. After perfecting his craft, he moved to Berlin, the nerve center of techno, where he found new opportunities. He founded his label, K S R (Kaiser Sound Records), to promote emerging talent and produce distinctive techno tracks. Kaiser is also deeply involved in the music community and continues to evolve as a creative artist, leaving his mark on the global techno scene.
