Dycide is a Deep-Techno and Drum and Bass producer/DJ based in Munich, Germany. He produces electronic music, which is best described as intricate rhythms combining various percussive textures while keeping a subtle atmosphere. This creates a very minimalistic sound without losing the importance of storytelling. While his other passion, the art of programming, lets him experiment with generative art, both in visual and auditory work. In 2018 Dycide co-founded the audiovisual label IO together with his close friends MTRL & Polygonia. The label already counts many successful releases and has gained a deep following over the years.

Human Lessons #065 - Dycide

“An Unseen Balance Between Light And Darkness”

Host of the podcast series ‘Adjust (BE) Invites’, he invited numerous DJ’s and Producers to make a signature guest mixes, with over 130 episodes spreading over 2 years and reaching out to new listeners each month.

In 2023 he started a new and hypnotic/deep-techno-exclusive podcast called ‘Anhera’, which translates to ‘Darkness’ in sanskrit, and with every full moon or solar eclipse, a talented and highly respected DJ/producer creates a unique story.

His style of performing and producing can be described as a perfectly carved out balance between light and darkness, cheerful and melancholic, where he guides you through the various realms of underground techno music, where you’ll find yourself in the most disturbing, hypnotizing and captivating journeys and where there’s no time, no space, but only the low end frequencies, the screeching synths, the confusing percussive elements, which are surrounded by the most beautiful and enchanting ambient soundscapes.

And thus the pure reflection of his inner darkness.

Are you ready… to Adjust your mind?

Submerged In Sound [007] - Adjust (BE)

Gościem szóstego odcinka naszych podcastów jest Deepbass. Urodzony w szkockim mieście - Glasgow, producent głębokiego, mrocznego i atmosferycznego techno.
Muzyczną pasję rozwijał od najmłodszych lat, wolne chwile spędzając w sklepach z płytami winylowymi poszukując nowych brzmień. To właśnie w tych miejscach ukształtował się jego charakter i gust muzyczny, gdzie największą uwagę przykuła głównie twórczość Speedy’ego J i Jeff’a Mills’a. Osobliwe i charakterystyczne brzmienia spowodowały zmianę w jego postrzeganiu świata muzyki techno. Ukształtowany konkretnymi brzmieniami stworzył swój własny, minimalistyczny, pełen ambientowych elementów i hipnotycznych rytmów styl. 
W roku 2010 otworzył własną wytwórnie – Informa Records. Ten personalny projekt stał się owocem i drogą do wyrażenia siebie i odkrycia nowych przestrzeni muzycznych. Po 4 latach istnienia, Informa Records stała się energicznie rozwijającym labelem, w którym swoje materie dźwiękowe wydali min. Modern Heads, Cio D'Or, Mark Broom, Edit Select, Echologist, Ness, Hironori Takahashi i nAX_Acid.
Twórczość samego właściciela labelu Informa, ukazała się za to w wytwórniach takich jak: Soma Records, Dynamic Reflection, Aconito Records and Planet Rhythm. 
Występujący na całym świecie artysta cieszy się popularnością i uznaniem w świecie muzycznym, na co dowodami są niewątpliwie występy w jednych z najlepszych klubów na świecie – Space na Ibizie i Berghain w Berlinie.

Born in Glasgow, Scotland. His passion for electronic music started from a young age where he would spend his weekends in record stores searching for music, he discovered artists like Speedy J and Jeff Mills who really opened his eyes to the world of techno. He started producing music in 2008 and from there his sound evolved, always minimalistic, elements of ambient, hypnotic rhythms and deep rolling bassline's. In 2010 he launched his label Informa Records as a platform to express himself and to explore further into his brand of deep techno.

Five wonderful years have passed for Velvet Vortex and keeping in mind all the people we have crossed paths with, all the lessons we have learned and all the inspiration we have gained – it is time to open a new exciting chapter. Further information will be discovered slowly, but at this moment we are ready to present the Velvet Vortex podcast series. Another branch of VV activity responsible for spreading our passion for deep, ambitious and quality sound in modern electronic music.

We are opening the series with a recording prepared by none other than our long time friend – a skillful and well-respected dj & producer – Luigi Tozzi. His carefully curated selection deftly brings the spirit of Spring, flowing gently like a breeze. Deep, unhurried narrative lets the listener perceive more details in those layered, ethereal sounds. Luigi’s attention to detail and harmony, which he brought to Velvet Vortex events several times already, comes to light once again.

Hailing from Amsterdam, Wanderwelle's unique brand of invigorating, meditative deep electronica has quickly made a mark internationally. Their creative output is intricate and well-considered, with each release featuring field recordings and deep-lying concepts which draw inspiration from folklore and natural environments.

Following on from releases on @silent-season - including the acclaimed "Lost in a Sea of Trees" from 2017 - the duo has increased their exposure, performing at Isotoop in the Rotterdam, Tresor in Berlin and an upcoming debut outdoor set at Croatia's Modem Festival. Along with this, their contribution to @grandriver 's @oneinstrument project found its way onto vinyl earlier this year.

For their contribution to Patterns of Perception, the duo explore a range of sounds - from lush ambience and deep techno to experimental electronica - that translate impeccably into a single, cohesive yet wide-ranging narrative.

Their next LP "Gathering of the Ancient Spirits" (also on Silent Season) is slated for release later this summer.

The Swamp | Mo:Dem Festival
Styles change and vary but concept and idea stay the same; psychedelic and trippy music for mind and body.

The Swamp stage is nestled on Mo:Dem's island. A hottest and most memorable part of the festival's location is home to Progressive, Techno and other various styles of music. With PSYCHEDELIC as only common denominator and DANCE as the main philosophy behind it.

The idea behind The Swamp was to generate counterbalance to the faster and heavier musical styles presented at The Hive. Creating an 'alternative stage' wasn’t our intention. Rather we imagined The Swamp as the extension of the same psychedelic dance experience. Possibility to select between artists coming from a wide spectrum of psychedelic music gave us an opportunity to succeed in our plan. As Swamp literally and figuratively means diversity and variety, this was set as the main guideline for this stage in the future.

Love. Passion. Commitment.
