WEIRD PLANET MIX SERIES

Next up is @Walfroy taking control of the sixth podcast of our Weird Planet Series with 80 minutes of fast-paced tech! 

Active member of Union Trance Mission, this multi-faceted french producer has been exploring the many corners of the electronic sphere for several years to develop his own unidentified musical object.

Fond of rave sounds, old school techno and other forbidden trajectories, he simply draws on everything that electronic music has to offer, and seems much more open to his intuitions rather than any desire to fit the mold. This is what makes him a DJ with an overflowing energy of unpredictability, constantly trying to be the most adventurous in his mixing technique.

He’s showing us the way today through an impressively effective and unique style strongly influenced by the old school. Loops overlap and tracks flow together in no time !

The mighty @ABEM_S is joining us for the seventh podcast of our Weird Planet Podcast Series!

As one of those surprises we didn’t see coming in 2020, the frenchman has landed like a pure UFO in the electronic landscape.

Through a completely crazy hybrid style combining strong rolling basslines, distorted kicks and surpitched manga samples, his style is so easily identifiable that it became a unique signature sound in barely one year.

Hyperactive producer, restless DJ but also VJ performer, this guy is doing his thing so fiercely that it comes as no surprise to find him on labels such as Union Trance Mission, Ismus or SpeedMaster Records, providing pure destroyers with each new release.

He’s sharing his overflowing energy with us today through this deadly high speed mix, driving between tribe, trance and some of his own bombs!

@Ciuciek is taking control of our eighth podcast with 60 minutes of pounding acid techno straight from Poland!

Native of Tricity in the northern part of the country, it’s in the late 90s while the raves were fully booming in the former bunker of Gdansk that he has been caught of passion for the underground scene and its frenetic sound. A passion that we can obviously find in his unique acid style today, whose incredible energy could set fire to any reluctant dancefloor.

With massive releases on flagship labels of the acid UK movement such as Stay Up Forever, System Rejects and a lot more, he has definitely made his mark as one of the most exciting artists of the polish electronic scene.

That’s one of the many reasons we’re so glad to host him on this new episode, which will surely get you jumping all around. Good vibes, fast rhythm and pure banging acid techno!

As nothing’s better than some straight bangin’ acid lines to start the new season, we’re thrilled to host a 1H live from @DICA-mkrksm for the 9th episode of our Podcast Series!

Based in Rennes and strongly influenced by the acid vibrations emerging from the other side of the Channel, it’s through Acid UK and flagship labels of this movement that DICA finds the first impulse to create his own music. Quickly surrounded by an analogical arsenal, we find him a few years later with an already perfectly-mastered hard-techno live, ready to make the walls sweat.

Today, his overboosted sound has found its place on labels such as Fluctuat Rec, KTK, Recollection, or even Stay Up Forever… We can already say that the circle is complete.

Groovy rhythms, frenetic 303’s & rolling basslines, it is quite simply a burning podcast that the frenchman gives us the honor to share through this new episode!

Celebrating no less than 25 years of djing this year, our guest for the 10th podcast is none other than one of the biggest acid techno producers of the last decades, @SterlingMoss!

With dynamic musical taste and timing sharper than a razor, Sterling Moss is renowned for his technically explosive DJ style that never fails to electrify crowds the world over. Having toured extensively in over 25 countries throughout North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, he regularly rocks dancefloors all around the globe.

Tirelessly stoking a 303 & 909 driven rebellion from the Sound Lab studio, his numerous releases on his own imprints, such as Rebeltek or Raceway, and his tight collaborations alongside the mighty Stay Up Forever crew have made himself one of the key players of the acid UK movement.

Legendary skills, punk injected overflowing energy and explosive selections... Sterling Moss is quite simply one of the best djs we know, and that is one of the many reasons we’re so delighted to have him for today's episode!

Next up for the 11th episode of our podcast series is a long-time active member of Lyon’s electronic landscape, the resident of the mighty 23:59 crew @Jibismusic !

Producer & DJ for over a decade now, he’s part of these artists who never fails to explore new musical fields and surprise us. Huge music enthusiast drawing from every kind of experience, such as studio collaborations with conductors or club residencies, his path is a story of pure creative impulses. Impulses that brought him to release on multiple imprints, create his own label and also develop a more deeper and personal sound under his other aliases “Sanjib” & “SJ”, focused on deep techno & ambient.

With a flawless technique and an eclectic selection of techno, trance and acid spiced up with rave infused breaks, it’s an open window on his great universe that Jibis delivers to us today!

For the next episode of our podcast series, we’re glad to host one of the new agitators of the french rave scene @Teokad !

Co-founder of the Rennes-based collective Mikrokosm whose unhinibited vibes have been hitting Breton dancefloors for more than 5 years, it is with a total freedom of influences that he has built his very own and rowdy style of acid techno. 

Between strong scents of early-hardstyle, UK infused rhythms and a special skill for epic breaks, it must be said that his arsenal is pretty well loaded. An arsenal that he always deploys with an overflowing generosity, and a pure frenzy vibe.

Today’s mix is no exception, so get ready to spend the next hour jumping as much as we did !

Summer break is over, but a new season full of exciting news is just about to begin. There is therefore no time for letting nostalgia set in, and the @TwoSuspects-music have the perfect surprise to get us all back on track : the full recording of their live-set, captured last year during their closing at the mighty Contrast - Rave Line !

Among the hybrid curiosities that have emerged within the electronic landscape in recent years, Two-Suspects’ futuristic universe is undoubtedly one of the most promising and captivating. 

Attracted by antagonistic scenes and always hungry for new production techniques, it was by crossing their trance and acidcore backgrounds that they shaped a style of their own. An over-technological and hostile world, where shamanic acid lines and psy-organic sounds just perfectly melt on the dancefloor.

After a year playing dystopian rave-like performances around the hexagon, they’re now back full time at the studio to prepare the new ones to come. It is a big page that they give us the honor to turn with today’s episode, and everything suggests that these two haven’t finished surprising us!

We were recently talking about their mesmerizing trance grooves, and this new episode comes right on time to show you what it’s all about… 
Now taking control for the next hour : @X-Wave9 !

Podcast series launched by DJ Sueur & GTI at the end of 2018, X-Wave has quickly become an unmissable event for lovers of old school trance. A retro-futuristic window through which they playfully fuses all its textures - prog, acid, psy and goa - to bring the deepest, grooviest and cosmic experience at the same time.

Huge diggers always looking for the best and timeless tracks trance music has to offer, they’re now opening vortexes on dancefloors as well as through their own club nights.

Pretty much the same kind of vortex they’re opening with today’s episode, so keep your mind open, and let yourself be driven in their tribal soundscapes and retro-psychedelic melodies!

For the 15th episode of our series, we’re super excited to unveil the first online podcast from the enigmatic @RedScan!

Rolling hard off industrial production lines from a sinister dream, Red Scan seems to be built for a ravey future where succumbing to the trance is the only option available.

Alloying sounds from the most visceral layers of industrial techno, proto big room rave and cerebral trance, the french artist brings a new unpredictability to colossal, supersonic assaults on the senses.
As a key component of Union Trance Mission, he has been delivering pure pieces of industrial tinged trance through the label, regularly played by some of european finest selectors. 

So get ready to take off for a progressive, mental, and high-powered trance journey!

Coming up next is none other than the man behind the most renowned imprint of the acidcore & tekno scene : @Collision-cult-collective !

Born & raised within the rave fundaments of the Netherlands, while maintaining the strong temperament from the Romanian grounds. These two bloodlines bring a force together, which result in a raw, solid & uncompromising form of rave music.

Over the last two decades, he has undoubtedly contributed to the growth of the underground scene by running labels such as Cult Collective, formerly known as Obs.cur, Hangar, Interwave, Warehouse X or Future Frequencies, to name a few. As a producer, he has also released his frequencies on numerous vinyls and over a hundred tracks, and obviously could be called a steady force. 

We couldn’t have hoped for anything more evocative than today’s mix, flawlessly gathering some of the best acidcore & tekno tracks of recent years, with mental unreleased and core classics!

WP MIX SERIES #16 l COLLISION

Co-founders of the Rennes based collective Mikrokosm, @DICA_mkrksm & @Teokad have always shared the same love for acid sounds and high-powered rhythms. A devoted passion that brought them to collaborate on pure bangin’ tracks, but also to play gigs all over Europe and beyond in the past years, each one on their own. 

Allowing them to constantly improve their skills, those years have also been the opportunity to respectively push their sounds towards greater efficiency and power, by taking new trajectories, or going deeper in their own styles. This is where DICA’s UK acid-techno got overboosted with rolling basslines and other trance-like sounds, while Teokad added strong scents of early hardstyle to his arsenal.

But since friendship, Brittany's roots and acid always rule, it seemed pretty obvious that they would join forces on stage at one point or another. And they just did it the best way, with a 4-hands live performance played for the first time last summer at the Astropolis Festival.

A floor-impact guaranteed liveset that you can re-experience at home with today’s episode!

It’s been a little while since we haven’t released a podcast. As a strong comeback in the game, we’re therefore really glad to host one of the most exciting artists of the Belgian acid scene : @Radze !

Born in Georgia - raised and based in Belgium, Radze is part of these distorted sound disciples who inevitably bear the print of the dutch & belgian scene. A legacy of dirty 303 basslines, hard-hitting drums and epic synths, which he brilliantly combines with the overwhelming groove of tekno.

Whether as a producer, live performer or DJ, it is through a minimalistic use of that specific blend that his style finds all his singularity. Drawing the best pieces from acidcore, tribe or hardcore, each thundering element joins forces and finds its place in an unstoppable timeline where efficiency rhymes with unpredictability.

Today’s mix is kind of a perfect summary of all this : an ever-evolving and forward pushing sound, driving us from the hardcore zone to the crazy dynamic groove of acid-tekno!

This one features a pure addict to hard-dance and a very special talent to electrify the crowds : @Jeanterechkova!

Since her first love for piano to the heavy grooves she now generously deploys behind the decks, it seems that the french artist takes delight in cultivating fertile metamorphoses - just like her stage name, the addition of a long-standing male nickname and a tribute to the first female cosmonaut.

From Normandy and Rennes by adoption, she has quickly made her place among the scene through a strong taste for cathartic sounds. By cathartic, we mean the most extreme flavors that can be found in the rave musical spectrum, from 90’s acid, trance, hardstyle, hardcore, to all other forbidden territories. A straight-to-the-floor yet fine selection of bangers, so satisfying and brilliantly mixed that she brings out - beyond the violence - all the poetry of brutality.

Today’s mix is no exception. So tune in and warm up for the beginning of the week!

For this new episode we are thrilled to have @SKRYtekno with an exclusive recording of his liveset played at our event in collab with @2359events last March!

Embodying the perfect post-apocalyptic soundtrack, his music is probably one of the most interesting in the hybrid scene that has emerged in recent years.
Initially inspired by the freeparty scene, it's by crossing his love for acidcore with psy-trance and other futuristic influences that he found his trademark sound.

With an impressive sound-design and a construction approach of incomparable efficiency, his productions have quickly and inevitably been noticed by labels such as Acid Pirate or Omny Lab, well knowned for their next-gen tekno style that particularly fit his project. 

Between the distorted kicks, desert-like acid sounds and frenetic trance basslines of his old productions to his more recent speed house inducted style, tune-in for a 1h liveset from SKRY!

For the first episode of our Weird Planet Podcast Series, we're glad to host one the rising heads of the french rave scene, @Pawlowski! 

Co-founder & resident of the Atmospheяe collective whose sulfurous vibes hits the walls of northern France for a few years now, the Lille-based producer & dj delivers a 50-minutes blend of early-trance and pumping acid bangers to give back to the dancefloor its most primitive energy.

Sometimes a bit catchy, often daring, but always effective, one thing is sure : Pawlowski definitely knows where to draw to federate.

The Weird Planet Podcast Series continues with a second episode, driven by none other than the hyperactive founder of @UnionTrance Mission, DJ Reiz! 

It’s been a couple of years now that the parisian producer is spoiling our ears and hearts with beautiful Techno Trance bangers, reinventing old school 90s sounds and combining them with new groovy and thundering elements. 
Also defending a unique vision of rave music through his label for more than two years, he has gradually shaped an awesomely hybrid and colorful universe, offering a real playground for some of the rising heads of the european rave scene.

It's therefore full of excitement that we unveil his new mix today, in which he delivers an high-powered selection of bangers and a few unreleased materials from the upcoming UTM Various. The opportunity for him to show his flawless mixing technique once again, and share with us his unconditional love for trance in all its forms!

For the third episode of our Weird Planet Podcast Series, we're super glad to host a master of dark industrial soundscapes and bloody acid lines, ABLK !

Coming from the North of France, it is through punk rock and metal that he first went to music, guitar in hand and pedal underfoot. It’s not surprising, then, to find such uninhibited influences in his techno project created around 4 years ago, through which he shapes a straight and radical sound drawn from the Belgian and Dutch scene, and by the hard sounds of freeparty.

No need to warn you so, this new podcast is something from which we don’t return completely unscathed. Between industrial-infused acid techno - including some of his recent releases - and some acidcore coming straight from the doom, it’s a nice glimpse of his twisted universe that ABLK shares with us today, always without any fuss or pity!

We’re happy to share our fourth and last Weird Planet Podcast of the year with a varied trance selection from our danish trailer park boy @HyperionORBIT ! 

Coming of age around the millennium in a part of Northern Europe where most raves where held in local sports halls, bouncing around other teenagers in Adidas track suits, Buffalo boots and bucket hats, there’s no doubt about what has shaped his sound and aesthetics tremendously. 

Leaning heavily on the legacy of Goa and Frankfurt alike, it is through a blend of psy-trance and hard trance melodies that he has built an awesomely hybrid and unique universe, which naturally found his place among the Union Trance Mission family. 

Between oldschool vibes, psy, goa & other trance-infused styles, take a seat and get ready for a fast-paced drive into HyperionOrbit universe!

Here it is, the fifth chapter of our Weird Planet Podcast Series, driven by the industrial infused rave project @WaveBndr, also known as Collision! 

After being present in the upper & underground scene for more than 2 decades, Patrick Jansen felt from deep within it was time for him to bring all elements of true Rave music together again. Like how it all started in the early fundaments of electronic dance music.

Even though WaveBndr has grown a name for himself through his other Acidcore/Tekno alias « Collision » (especially through his vinyl labels Obscur, Hangar, Future Frequencies, InterWave… to name a few), it made perfect sense for him to start a newborn entity which fuses, molds & bends all technoid flavours into one harmonic blend, where all lovers of underground music will feel connected again.

Through this powerful and flawless mix, our man delivers a two hours complete immersion between solid drops of techno, throbbing acid lines and industrial sounds, reminding us how much we miss raving!
