Florian Breidenbach – September 2026 Techno Set

During the last days I started collecting some tracks to record a new set for longer runs or train and car trips. Nothing fancy but somehow that escalated quickly. Some suddenly became more than seventy and in the last days I was finally able to mix and record it in two sessions and cut it together.

Have fun and dive into an extended journey through the current techno landscape with this new DJ Set. In a little over three hours the mix gradually moves from 137 up to 145 BPM, featuring 74 carefully selected tracks and remixes. The tracklist combines both fresh productions from upcoming talents and established names from the international techno scene bringing together artists from all around the world.

DkA – Anneessens EP

Antoine Verbrugge aka DkA offers us a 3 track Ep with some of his most charismatic work to date. The techno infused title track Anneessens takes you on an endlessly evolving symbiosis between the pushing rhythmic part, kick / bass line interaction and an overwhelmingly wide melody arrangement. On the B side the story continues with Lost Track Of Time. Based on a similar structure than the first track it has a slightly darker side to it. It is only when the long heavy bass line kicks in after a few minutes that you realize this isn’t you ordinary b side track. And finally as a cherry on the cake Fireworks closes of the Ep with loopy bass lines topped by a warm evolving brass play. Perfect to shift from warming up to the more serious business.

Artist: DkA
Label: Brüxsel Jardin Records
Release Date: 06/2015

Stewart Walker – Ivory Tower Broadcast

A quarter century of the same drum machines and basslines turned future music into golden oldies. Visionaries don‘t make techno based on particular instruments but a set of techniques which can dilate time, implode sound, and confound expectation. Stewart Walker returns after a 6 year retreat to bring his own future sound with “Ivory Tower Broadcast.” The Ivory Tower refers to a cloistered and elitist mental space removed from practical considerations and criticism. It‘s a perfect metaphor for a music studio: Escape the noise outside and start from nothing but memory. Forget the rules, they‘re from a long time ago.

Stewart Walker Ivory Tower Broadcast Cover

Based heavily on live instruments and the scrape and noise of performance, “Ivory Tower Broadcast” tightly controls and contorts the human element and splays it across the time- corrected perfection of sequenced rhythm. Disparate recreations of post-punk basslines and shoegaze guitars are sliced through with “drunken master” scratching inspired by the late great DJ Screw. German zithers and Japanese kotos are plucked and strummed to recall the warm chorus of Appalachian mountain music. The techno is there in the tension and hypnosis of the beat, stripped dry and metronomic to support the luxurious sound . On “Ivory Tower Broadcast” Stewart corrals sounds from different memories and geography and binds them into an emotional experience with rarely seen vision and skill.

Check out this video for an insight into the making of the album and if you have the time tune in to boilerroom.tv Tuesday the 2nd of September from 19:00 CET and see Stewart play along with Cormac, Benedikt Frey, Tobias. (Live) and Roman Flügel.

Ivory Tower Broadcast is set to be released on September 26th 2014 via Mundo Recordings on Vinyl, CD and digital.
