This week on the Ismcast we have Josh Reid.

We are happy to finally welcome good friend and hard techno connoisseur Josh Reid to the podcast series. Having grown up in the Dublin area, he decided to make the move to Berlin where he found himself in a much less limiting electronic music environment. Since then he has been carving his name into scene here playing regularly both in Berlin and beyond.

Our boy delivers just over an hour and a half of hard groove, hard techno and everything in between. Powerful stuff from the Irishman.

As always be sure to give Josh Reid a follow on his socials.

Developing a discerning ear for a diverse range of genres since a very young age, Tuscanian-born Thomas Bianco blended succesfully his early passion for music into his current signature sound.

His music journey led him to Berlin, where he discovered his passion for electronic music. He was captivated by the city's pulsating Techno scene, which ignited his creative spark and led him to experiment with DJing and music production under his first alias: Keterhoe.

Over time, Thomas's sound evolved into a delicate balance of light and dark, softness and hardness, simplicity and complexity. He’s become a master of blending multiple subgenres of techno into a cohesive whole, infusing each track with his unique perspective and creative energy.

Today, Thomas has established himself as a leading figure in Zurich's thriving underground scene, where he is renowned for his mastery of music and his ability to create an intricate sonic tapestry that is both meditative and pulsating. His sets are a masterful blend of rough textures, driving rhythms, and haunting melodies.

Thomas's music is marked by its minimalism, depth, and dynamism, which he uses to create a sonic journey that infuses a breath of fresh air into the electronic music scene. His sets are electrifying and must-see for fans of the genre, and you don't want to miss the chance to experience his sound live. Catch him in action at a party near you soon!

Yves Meyer - DSTNY

vitus' curse is a Berlin-based record label founded and curated by @notsomodest, offering genre-bending Techno and deeply curated experiences. Rooted in the spirit of Techno, the label transcends the ordinary, creating space where freedom, peace, and unity take center stage.

Inspired by St. Vitus, the patron of dancers and misfits, the name recalls a forgotten 15th-century ritual of release – once feared, now revered. What was once seen as a curse was, in truth, sacred ecstasy. A collective liberation through movement.

vitus' curse carries that spirit forward. A sanctuary for those who seek connection in the pulse of the night. Join the movement. Move without shame. Dance for eternity.

Contact: info [at] vituscurse.com

Join the movement and dance to the sound of both day and night alongside:
