Boman made a breakthrough with his EP Holy Love on Pampa Records in 2010 where the song “Purple Drank” became a hit in the house music scene, since then he has been touring extensively and made remixes for artists like Justus Köhnke, DJ Hell, Agaric, Dave Aju and Harald Björk. He is one third of the Swedish label and DJ-crew Studio Barnhus where he has put out numerous releases. Bomans music has been described as “raw, playful and drenched in oceans of soul” and his dj-sets are as energetic as eclectic. He is also very friendly in a Scandinavian way (sexy).

Claro Intelecto returns with his 2nd album on Delsin Records, with a back catalogue reaching back to 2003 and releasing on labels such as AI Records, Modern Love & Delsin.

Claro continues to mix up techno, deep house and IDM into his own unique forms with Delsin since the Second Blood EP in 2012. Besides Peace of Mind EP, key releases also include , the albums Metanarrative and Reform Club, a series of Warehouse Sessions 12″s and a career defining remix (having been originally requested by the band’s Martin Gore) of Depeche Mode’s 1982 classic “Leave in Silence”. 2017 sees a return to action for the esteemed producer with the album ‘Exhilarator’ on Delsin.

5 years since ‘Reform Club’, his last album on Delsin, ‘Exhilarator’ prooves that time has only strengthened his hand and this new release remains as high in quality as Claro has always been known for. With a new live show to go with the album it is a welcome return for a stalwart of the British electronic music scene.

Cannonball Adderley, Rick Holmes, The Nat Adderley Sextet* ‎– Soul Zodiac

Tonights album choice by Marvin & Guy:
“It’s probably one of the most beautiful Soul-Jazz albums of all the time. Perfect for every kind of smooth situation and certainly the most “wet” music you will listen to”

Set times for the weekend at www.blitz.club.

The Marvin & Guy project was born under the shadow of a palm tree while a flamingo listened to tropical music, way back in 2011. The duo’s first release was an EP with the Japanese label Let’s Get Lost, the naughty child in the expansive Mule Musiq label family.

Boards Of Canada ‎– Tomorrow’s Harvest

Tonights album choice from Answer Code Request:

“”I always have it on my iTunes when I am on the road and it is also a good warm up before my gig. A lot of older productions from me came from inspiration from Boards of Canada.“”

Before you hit the dance floor this friday, how about a warm up with a 90ies Eurodance Workout Playlist? Machine Woman recently shared her favorite workout tracks with Electronic Beats.

“Russian-born, Berlin-based Machine Woman has been garnering attention and praise lately for her aggressive yet subtle style of underground electronic music. Her sets across Berlin have been drawing crowds and facilitating a reputation for contemporary cuts that sit somewhere inside the techno and electro spectrum.”

Both as a DJ and a producer, Patrick Gräser aka Answer Code Request has honed a hybrid musical approach that stands out in a world of uniform 4/4 techno. Melding pad-driven harmonies, intricate breaks and an industrial sonic palette, Gräser has occupied a unique space within the Ostgut Ton cosmos since debuting on the label in 2012 and becoming a Berghain resident shortly thereafter. His various releases and remixes for Ostgut Ton, MDR, Dolly Deluxe and Monkeytown Records continue to be highly sought after. As a DJ, he has taken his bass- and breaks-heavy techno to clubs and festivals around the globe, while remaining an integral part of the Berlin scene.

On his celebrated debut LP Code (Ostgut Ton, 2014), Gräser actively sought to push the boundaries of techno. His follow up LP Gens, out on Ostgut Ton in February 2018, exudes a similarly experimental approach, albeit with darker results. Ultimately, Gräser’s musical vision is one that spans styles and decades of dance music without sounding retrospective or all over the map.

“The struggles of being an artist on Facebook” – Resident Advisor just released a link to a The Quietus article where Mollie Zhang looks into this topic.

“I spoke to a number of artists about what they think of Facebook, whether they use it, and how they use it. Of the artists I spoke to, only a couple aren’t on Facebook at all. All of them had a variety of issues with the platform and, of course, a number of different ways to respond to them.” Read more on The Quietus.

Jeff Mills is considered to be one of the most brilliant DJ’s and producer of techno in the World. He is the most recognised representative figure of the Detroit Techno scene, where he began his career as a DJ on the WDRQ radio in 1984. He created the collective “Underground Resistance” alongside “Mad Mike Banks”, which became a reference in the electro sphere. In 1992, Jeff Mills created his own label “Axis”, allowing him to keep his artistic independence and produce his own timeless electronic music compositions, inspired of science fiction.
