Vortex Traks Podcast 20 by Jobot

Hailing from the Midwest music mecca of Minneapolis, Jobot has been weaving his precision brand of sonic layering for the last 20 odd years.  Drawing heavily on electro and mutant forms of acid, elements of techno, and early dancefloor references like italo, space disco and freestyle are all part of his machine-funk palette.  One hallmark is injecting 4/4 patterns with the groove of electro.  Heavy influences include Intergalactic FM and the westcoast sound of Holland, all things Drexciyan and UR, Midwest soundsystem culture purveyors such as Hush and Intellephunk, nearly annual trips to Detroit for DEMF / Movement festival, as well as tuning in to the echoes of proto-techno on radio hotmix shows as a child in Milwaukee, WI.  Productions are in the works, and it will be exciting to hear what the future holds for this genre-bending sonic traveler.

Vortex Traks Podcast 21 by Selene

Selene has been transmitting techno, ambient and electro beats on the airwaves of intergalactic.fm since 2012 — first as the host of The Teahouse on IFM’s beloved ambient channel The Garden, and then on The Dream Machine as the host of Special Circumstances. Originally schooled in acid house at full moon raves by the Wicked Soundsystem in the San Francisco Bay Area, she moved to New York where she developed her love of techno thanks to events like the legendary New Music Seminar. Any additional free time was spent digging through crates at Temple Records in Soho and throughout various sidewalk sales and flea markets in the city. Records from this Vortex Traks podcast are from this era.

Nachtwald is an alias of Dutch cult figure Johnny Hoorneboeg. His music is a dark and experimental take on what he calls "deep-fried electro" and is heavily inspired by the DIY driven legacy of the 1990s/2000s The Hague squat scene (West Coast Sound of Holland) with artists like Legowelt, Rude66, IF etc. Since mid-2024 he has issued the Delete The Internet EP (Roulette Rekordz) and the Call Me Back EP (New York Haunted) under his project name: Nachtwald. Each balancing raw synth energy with eerie minimalism. His tracks like "Hit The Streets" have earned rotation on Dave Clarke’s White Noise and placement in underground European tip compilations.


Dutch producer Nachtwald (aka Johnny Hoorneboeg) returns with his "BioStabil 2000" EP. This six-track release explores the strange legacy of the famed BioStabil 2000 necklace, sold on Dutch teleshopping 25 years ago with claims of magnetic healing powers. Channeling the raw energy of the ’90s/’00s West Coast Sound of Holland scene, the EP traces BioStabil’s journey from miracle cure to pop-cultural myth, blurring the lines between authentic remedy and snake-oil spectacle.
