April's episode on the MindTrip Podcast welcomes Los Angeles techno flag-bearer David Flores aka Truncate. David was introduced to the electronic music world at a very young age, DJing across Southern California. His producer career started a few years later with his first records under his David F and Audio Injection monikers on labels like Monoid, Stimulus, 4 Track & LA label Droid Recordings while in 2011 he launched his own imprint, also named Truncate. Since then, he had countless EPs and singles on platforms like Token, Hotflush Recordings and Blue Hour.
His latest works are two collaborations: HYD, with Dotdat on Truncate Records, and an upcoming shared work with James Ruskin on Blueprint. His sound moves around deep, raw and jackin' techno and that's exactly what you are about to enjoy on this exclusive 60 minutes mix featuring a great surprise on the closing with a smooth jazzy track from 1991.

Peter Van Hoesen: Labyrinth 2014 (Hybrid Dj/Live)

Live @ Tresor 16.09.2015

Please enjoy

Live June Set @ Oath in Shibuya Tokyo

Another one from the Sims archives for the lockdown crew, don't think this went public before but i could be wrong.
It was recorded in '99, to cassette, and the tape just says 'Party Mix' on it, although i know for sure it wasn't from a party (unless just me, my bestie Sosa, Reggie Redstripe and some Benson's in the dining room of a shit house in Essex is a party..ha ha).

Anyways, it's kinda cool, lots of classics and faves amongst early Hardgroove material and standard late 90s flavoured trickery.

Enjoy! Stay safe. Sims x

Ben Sims Mixtape 1999

Reclaim Your City 415 | Ben Sims (London)

To say that we’re chuffed to have absolute UK techno mastermind Ben Sims as our final delivery man of the year would be an understatement. Over the years, the British DJ and producer has been pushing back the limits of dance music as we know it, cutting new paths for rhythmic innovation and higher grades of popular satisfaction without giving in to the advances of brainless market sound and overhyped trends. Expect a 2 hour and a half salvo of purely hectic, bone-bruising 4-to-the-floor that’ll help lift spirits and get booties groovin’ true-school style in these complicated times. No frills 90s-bred madness inbound.
