XLR8R Podcast 744 - Carsten Jost

As often extensively touring as he is on the quest for new sounds (‘the iron fence in front of the studio’, ‘the wooden door in the toilet’ among other samples), or building instruments from scratch with his pals (see Modular Organ System), Phillip Sollmann’s experimental zeal underscores a conceptual framework that reveals a collage of influences as broad as Basic Channel, Francis Bacon, Japan or the room he’s sitting in. This often amounts to smooth and genre-busting segues on Dial, Curle and Ostgut Ton. For Bassiani Podcast 120, the German neutoner challenges and surprises with an hour of osmotic and textural 4/4 techno, twilight arps and fidgety basslines. Efdemin at his very best.

Today, we are delighted to introduce you to Zurich-based artist Lb Honne. Lb Honne is renowned for his exceptional talent and as one of the driving forces behind the beloved Project Indigo collective and Vorgott record label.

With a musical journey encompassing the release of the beautiful 'a move' long player and the creation of awe-inspiring remixes, including recent outstanding work for Ben Kaczor, Lb Honne has firmly established himself as an artist to watch.

In this exclusive mix, Lb Honne treats us to a hybrid set, skillfully weaving together unreleased gems with carefully selected fragments from his extensive record collection. The resulting journey is steeped in the essence of a dark and pulsating dancefloor. Thick, thumping grooves intersect with mesmerizing, trippy sequences, crafting a compelling narrative that demands your full attention.

Throughout the mix, he effortlessly transitions between minimalistic and stripped-down moments while diving into hypnotic and melodic passages. With every beat and melody, Lb Honne ensures there is never a dull moment, creating a trip designed to thrive on a powerful sound system.

Hannah D is a DJ and artist originating from Meanjin (Brisbane), now residing in Naarm (Melbourne) — a city with a dedicated electronic music community that sees her as a go-to for progressive sounds. Through both her music and delicately-blended mixes, Hannah has created a tangible connection around the globe with new age revivalists of the 90s and 00s sound. Aside from her own personal artistry, Hannah heads up TSBU (The Space Between Us), the successful Australian label which has a local focus on proto sounds within the progressive tech space. The TSBU discography already includes a variety of releases from Mabel, Al Dente, Gallery B, and more. 2023 has seen Hannah exceed the high expectations that are associated with her name, with a debut European tour and further additions to the ever-growing TSBU label catalogue - as well as more stellar events under both her ‘Luna Blessings’ (with DJ Luv You) and ‘Send/Return’ (with Bex) event brands. Chocked full of highlights, the first of many ‘business’ trips to Europe included a 5-hour b3b (alongside fellow Weaver artists Mabel & suki) for a sold-out warehouse event in Lyon, debut performances online and in-person in Berlin, Copenhagen and London, and a lasting impression that already has multiple northern hemisphere outfits requesting a return in 2024. She now has her sights firmly set on providing Australian audiences with further exhibitions of her sonic output - a sound that draws inspiration from both the people and places that surround her. Expect Hannah to continue going from strength-to-strength, bringing her euphoric tones to you and your friends wherever you may have the pleasure of encountering her enigmatic DJ sets.

Introducing: Hervé (@superons) — with a special two-hour vinyl session for our Nous’klaer Radio series. Sun-drenched, spaced out housey summer vibes. Just the way we like it.

Asked by 3voor12, promoters in the Netherlands named Hervé as one of the biggest talents to surface this year. And with good reason: Hervé oozes with passion for vinyl, playing and digging - but not only behind the decks. He is a driving force in the Amsterdam nightlife, being involved in the label Polychrome Audio, arts & community space Noord Space, and the newly launched club night Interfering Grounds at RAUM and more. Get to know Hervé through the Q&A here below.

Together with a Q&A, Hervé’s mix is now available on our SoundCloud.

𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘂𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘂𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆?
I was born in Côte d'Ivoire and grew up on the African continent. After some studies in France, I moved to the Netherlands for a job in 2016. Music was very present in my upbringing, with one of my brothers being a hip-hop artist. Settling in Amsterdam in 2018 opened new perspectives, as I delved into electronic music and its nightlife. Alongside collecting and playing music, I am involved in a few collective projects, including record label Polychrome Audio, creative network misuse, and arts & community space Noord Space. We are also starting a new club night called Interfering Grounds at Club Raum.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲?
Curiosity has always been my driver. Being open to different perspectives and cultures. I like asking questions and experimenting to build understanding and create new things. Sharing is what keeps me going, with music and life in general.

𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗮 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁-𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗼?
If there is an artist who consistently impresses me through his craft, both as a producer and a dj, it is RDS. Part of the De Lichting crew, his commitment to sound, ability to express emotions through it, and deep musical knowledge are inspiring. I highly recommend listening to his catalogue and seeing him play records from his collection, it is very special. Two picks: his E-mutations album released on De Lichting, and his Underwater EP that we released last year on Polychrome Audio.

𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗯𝘂𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗯𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝘁?
Playing the Nous'Klaer festival 2025 edition is definitely a bucket-list moment, and I am really excited for it :) There are so many festivals and clubs around the globe that I have yet to discover. I am very sensitive to artistic risk in both the program and design. Horst is also one of them, I remember vividly discovering its unique stages in 2024. Sustain-Release is also a festival that I would love to experience! I keep coming to the festival recordings, they channel a very special energy. It is a dream for me to play in Brazil, I fell in love with this country, where Gop Tun has been curating top-tier events.

Nous'klaer Radio #40 - Hervé

Nothing feels like before.

Not because everything has changed, but because you have.
Somewhere between now and then, something softened.

Time stretched, shadows lengthened, and the pulse beneath it all slowed — just enough for you to notice.

You don’t need to know where you’re going anymore.
It’s enough to drift, to dissolve, to listen.

Swiss producer Ben Kaczor and Swedish producer Martinou have been tracing parallel lines across the deeper shades of house and techno for over a decade. What began as a connection through SoundCloud has since bloomed into an understated, sonic kinship — now embodied in their joint alias: Terik Hensen.

With Nothing Feels Like Before, the 31st edition in the Discos Movimiento mix series, the duo opens a portal into something restrained yet expansive. A meditative flow of dub-inflected grooves and minimal percussion that moves like breath — steady, intimate, and full of space.

It’s not a beginning or an end.
Just a moment. A shift. A subtle unfolding.
And maybe that’s enough.

Want to warm up for our giegling …IsBurning ADE Weekender? This week’s mix by Serenne will get you in the mood! The giegling affiliate from Switzerland, Serenne, is providing us with a journey through beautiful, captivating melodies that glide into the deep while still maintaining a floating atmosphere. As her last track says, ‘We are the dancers, we create the dreams.’ It’s a beautiful ode to the dance floor where all emotions can have space to float away or glide in. 

We hope you are as exciting for this collaboration with giegling as we are!
