PLAYING PYTECA + PYTECA SELECTA

“POLYXENE is a dynamic DJ, based in Vienna but hailing from Athens.
With a sound engineering background, an insatiable digging habit and a sublime dancing energy, she knows how to raise eyebrows and to ignite the dancefloors.
POLYXENE is early influenced by Drum n’ Bass/Jungle and later on Detroit Techno which deeply shaped her electronic music path.
With a robust and heavily eclectic record collection her dj sets oscillate from Electro, Breakbeat, Broken Techno, heavy Bass, mindbending IDM to Ghetto and House. But she also loves to go straight forward with her Big Room Techno and Ravey Breakcore weapons. She shared the DJ booth with Dj Bone, OBJEKT, Ellen Alien, Marcel Dettmann, Vladimir Ivkovic, Nite Fleit, DJ Assault, Madam X, Deena Abdelwahed, Call Super, Teki Latex, Nene H..
Some of the festivals she has performed are Elevate Festival (Graz), Hyppereality (Vienna), Ars Electronica (Linz, Austria), The Lighthouse Festival (Porec, Croatia). Last, she is a proud to have her monthly residency on Stegi Radio (former Movement Radio) of Athens where she explores variable music journeys along with her favourite artists.“

BCCO x SoundCloud New Faces S04E25: Miranda Demie

N:CK aka Nicolò Temperini, is an artist who has made sound research the driving force of his musical journey. His meticulous and almost artisanal approach to music selection and production sets him apart in the contemporary music landscape, where sonic aesthetics become both language and identity.

His productions are characterized by depth and timbral complexity: every sound is carefully selected and sculpted through a creative process that combines intuition, study, and detailed manipulation. The unconventional use of textures, samples, and broken rhythms gives rise to tracks that resist easy categorization, yet maintain a strong expressive coherence. He favors the use of analog and modular synthesizers tools that allow him to shape each sound in an unrepeatable way, making every track a unique sonic work. This choice is not merely technical, but conceptual: the uniqueness and imperfection of analog sound become a vehicle for deeply personal and unreplicable expression.

During his DJ sets, N:CK brings the same attention and sensitivity he applies in the studio. Each track is selected with the aim of crafting a coherent, engaging, and never banal sonic journey one where the tension between structure and chaos, rhythm and abstraction, creates a space for deep and transformative listening.

N:CK does not seek immediate impact, but rather works to create experiences that leave a lasting impression, evoking inner landscapes through vibrations that speak directly to both body and mind.

“Work hard in silence, let your success be your noise.”

Matteo Barcaiolo, better known as Odeon, is an enigmatic figure in the electronic music scene, hailing from Rome, Italy. With his eclectic blend of breakbeat, lo-fi house, and atmospheric electronica, he’s carving out a unique space for himself.
After spending years behind the scenes producing for others and exploring diverse musical endeavors, Odeon recently stepped into the limelight with his debut single “Esedra,” which garnered attention on Spotify’s Brain Food editorial playlist, quickly gaining traction.
Odeon’s versatility shines through in his recent remix of Minds&Machines’ “You” on Anjuna Deep Reflections, where he skillfully transforms the mood with the addition of organic elements, guitars, and his signature samples.
Beyond music, Odeon has left his mark on various advertising campaigns, including numerous projects for Woolrich, XL Extralight, Salewa and more, as well as documentaries. His collaboration “Le Locle” with Klaus for Zenith watches underscores his versatile artistry and keen attention to detail. Furthermore, serves as a testament to his ability to craft immersive sonic landscapes, inviting listeners on a journey through sound and emotion.

Vincenzo Pizzi is a music producer, sound designer and founder of Pyteca. With a background rooted in experimental sound research and a degree with honors in Sound Design from IED Rome, he has developed a sonic language that fuses techno with the emotional depth of IDM, ambient influences and refined sound design.

Currently lecturer in Sound Design and mentor at IED, Pizzi moves between academic research, artistic experimentation and advanced production techniques. His work spans immersive audiovisual experiences, live performances, and club-oriented releases — always characterized by a meticulous approach to rhythm, sound spatialization, and timbral evolution.

As curator of Pyteca label, he promotes a vision of electronic music that is both refined and radical — where synthetic and organic elements meet to explore hybrid emotional states. His discography includes introspective compositions and rhythmic explorations often featured on platforms such as Mixmag, XLR8R, RaiRadio3, i-D Vice, and Noisey.

Vincenzo Pizzi also composes and designs sound for audiovisual and media projects, creating original music for campaigns, runway shows, fashion films and high-end digital content. His sonic identity — a refined blend of tension, minimalism, and emotional charge — is often chosen to enhance visual narratives that demand character and depth. Combining electronic textures, pulsating rhythms, and cinematic atmospheres, his sound resonates with the aesthetic codes of contemporary fashion, design, and moving image storytelling.
