Spandau20

New SPANDAU20 Mixtape just in - @perc joins the collection.📼 Perc stands as one of techno’s defining figures, shaping the sound from multiple angles: as a DJ, live act and founder of the long-running Perc Trax label. His work moves between classic foundations and more experimental edges, always grounded in the physicality of the dancefloor. Decades deep, his approach remains in motion - evolving without losing focus. For his SPANDAU20 mixtape, Perc opens up the full range of his club sound. Starting stripped back and gradually building into more percussive territory, the mix is held together by atmosphere - echoing vocals, deep pads and textures that balance weight with space. Mixed in classic Perc style: multiple tracks running, layered with additional percussion and effects, constantly shifting and adding movement. A snapshot of where he’s at right now - direct, detailed and built for the floor. Lock in and let it unfold. 🖤

We’ve got a new SPANDAU20 Mixtape in the collection - welcome @djmellg! 📼 Frankfurt-based DJ, producer and JUICY GANG RECORDS founder DJ MELL G has carved out a sharp lane between electro, breakbeat, techno and EBM. Her sound is precise, fast-moving and unmistakably her own - dark, bouncy and wired with dystopian energy. Since committing fully to music in 2020, she’s been pushing that signature style across clubs and festivals worldwide, while building her label and releasing a steady stream of forward-leaning productions. For her SPANDAU20 mixtape, DJ MELL G delivers a high-energy ride through her world of dystopian electro and techno. Expect tightly wound rhythms, bouncing pressure and a selection that moves between recent favorites and fresh material - including tracks from CYRK and EMENT, cuts by underrated electro pioneer Nasty Boxes, and her own new track “FOREVER” closing the mix.

New SPANDAU20 Mixtape in session: @skudge-1 steps in with a live recording 📼 Built on rhythm, groove and a deep trust in simplicity, Skudge has carved out a distinct space in modern techno since the project first emerged in 2009. What began as a duo from Stockholm has since evolved into a solo venture, but the core remains unchanged: stripped-back, functional and driven by the power of repetition. For this SPANDAU20 Mixtape, Skudge delivers a live set recorded at Globus, Tresor on January 30th, 2026. A hardware-heavy session packed with drum machine rhythms, jams and a stack of new and unreleased material. Raw, direct and locked into the moment.🔊 Music for body and soul, recorded straight from the floor. Press play and step in.🖤

Just in: @morelian joins the SPANDAU20 mixtape series. 📼 Berlin-based DJ and producer Mor Elian has carved out a sound shaped by movement: from a decade in Los Angeles to her current base in Berlin, across clubs, studios and long stretches on the road. Co-running the Fever AM label and releasing on imprints like Hypercolour and Radio Matrix, her work has always leaned forward - percussion-driven, rhythmically curious and unconcerned with straight lines. Alongside her club releases, she’s explored sound design and ambient work under her Alloy Sea alias and has now started a new chapter with her debut album on Topo 2. For SPANDAU20, Elian delivers her most techno-leaning mix in some time. Direct, energetic and built for the floor, it stays grounded in techno while carrying the mutant edge of Fever AM - warped rhythms, shifting intensity and a sense of controlled unpredictability. Mixed at home on her own setup, the mix is tight, physical and made to move. Tune in and let it roll. 🖤

New SPANDAU20 Mixtape in session - @ogazon steps in.📼 Ogazón is an artist who moves with full conviction. Releasing all inhibitions, she pours herself fully into her performances, shaping sets as journeys rather than fixed narratives. Her approach is deeply intuitive and audience-focused, with a sensitivity to context and atmosphere that allows house and techno to merge effortlessly, blurring any perceived boundaries between the two.🔊 For Ogazón, SPANDAU20 equals party, and this mixtape lives exactly there. Imagined as the final hour of a set, it’s the moment where risks feel right: energy rises and falls, moods flip, and unexpected track combinations reshape the room. Recorded at home on a cold, stormy winter day, the mix blends vinyl, dubplates, old favourites and new discoveries. Expect tribal rhythms, driving but deep grooves and seductive vocals - focused, physical and made for bodies in motion. Lock in and let it unfold. 🖤

New SPANDAU20 Mixtape in rotation - @Jeromehill steps in. 📼 In the scene since 1990, Jerome Hill is one of those figures who shaped techno from the inside out: from illegal London raves and record shops to running cult labels like DON’T, Super Rhythm Trax, Bleeper and more, his path has always been hands-on, curious and rooted in the dancefloor. His style is instantly recognizable. A sharp selections, fearless shifts in mood, and a rare ability to integrate scratching into techno without breaking the flow. For his SPANDAU20 Mixtape, Jerome delivers a colourful, lived-in journey mixed on vinyl and USB. He moves freely between intensity levels, weaving in tracks he’s been playing out recently and are memorable - sometimes dramatic, sometimes playful, always focused on the energy. This one’s raw, direct and full of character. Press play and let it run. 🖤

New SPND20 Mixtape in the collection! Welcome @lucalozano 📼 Owner, A+R, artist and designer at @Klasse Wrecks, Luca Lozano has long operated where sound, visual language and attitude intersect. With releases on his own label, Sex Tags UFO, Phantasy Sound, Hypercolour, Running Back and beyond, plus his visual universe as planetluke.com, his work has always resisted neat categories, favoring character over convention. For this SPND20 Mixtape, Luca looks back to formative years in Berlin. New Year’s nights at Arena Berlin in 2004/05, musically the city was a melting pop of minimal, tech house and electro. Genres were undefined and there was a playfulness to the music, a wonky glacial cleanness to the funky grooves. It was an exciting and uncynical time and things felt undiscovered and exciting. It’s also where early connections with FJAAK took shape: studio visits in Neukölln, laptops full of sketches, ideas still embryonic.✨ That spirit runs through the mix. Luca revisits sounds and labels that once shaped him - acid lines, playful grooves, found again in the neglected corners of his own record bag. Woven into a journey that feels loose, curious and alive. For those listening closely, the closing moments hold a special nod to the shared history between FJAAK and Klasse Wrecks. A mix rooted in memory, made for movement. 🖤

Get it here: found.ee/spandau20-011 Spandau20 delivers its eleventh various artists release, a sonically rich and future-facing blend of broken grooves, spatial moods and modern Detroit romanticism. Four tracks, four new angles on the dancefloor. ANNA Z sets the tone with 'Kabeljau', an eclectic, IDM-flirting workout. On the opening track, elastic rhythms stretch and snap while ethereal pads drift overhead, punctured by sudden turns and glitchy surprises. Moody, weird and beautifully unpredictable. Dajusch continues with 'Fallout', diving into shimmering Detroit-inspired chords and pristine production. Clean yet full of soul, its dreamy propulsion moves with effortless optimism. It's a track that lifts heads and hearts without ever losing its club focus. Flip the record and FJAAK welcome you into a breakbeat-infused haze. 'Your Time' pairs groovy percussion and airy atmospheres with those unmistakable powerhouse vocal chops, a warehouse anthem with a gentle cosmic touch, driving yet deeply emotional. Closing the EP, Claus accelerates the pulse. 'Moist Logic' is a faster, more urgent exploration of the techno continuum. Machine funk encoded into a forward-thrusting groove, a sleek atmosphere swirling around a sharp, kinetic core. With SPANDAU20 011, the West-Berlin collective celebrates a hybrid future, rhythmically adventurous, melodically rich and rooted in a love for the dancefloor's most timeless emotions. This record combines Berlin grit with dream-state techno, balancing rough energy and refined emotion across four cuts that leave their mark on the floor.

New SPND20 Mixtape loading: @red-eye-dallas takes the booth 📼 Hailing from Dallas and shaped by decades of underground evolution, Red Eye brings a sound forged in EBM, industrial dance, new beat, early acid house and Detroit techno. Known for his unmistakable vocal work with KiNK, FJAAK, Stefan Braatz and more, plus releases and remixes across labels like Dirtybird, Yoshitoshi, Music For Freaks and Defected, he’s been carving his own lane long before nostalgia became a trend. With his 2024 imprint CRASH PLANET, he continues to blur lines between electro, breaks, acid, EBM, techno and house - always raw, always future-minded. For his SPANDAU20 Mixtape, Red Eye delivers the world he knows best: a moody one and a half hour sideroom trip, built on shadows, silhouettes, fog, and the occasional strobe flash. A place where EBM meets Chicago acid, industrial tension slides into punk-edged electro, and cold synthwave melts into hypnotic techno. Expect modernized-retro pressure, silky blends, dub echoes, genre left-turns, haunting atmospheres and slithery, hypnotic grooves with a few well-placed bangers. Dark, seductive, timeless - a mix for dancers who like the corners of the club as much as the center. Step inside Red Eye’s sideroom 🖤 This is where the future...lies. (RIP Douglas McCarthy)

Buy here: found.ee/crowd009 Munich-based duo Glaskin, brothers Jonathan and Ferdinand Bockelmann, have become pivotal voices in modern techno, known for their residency at the legendary Blitz Club and standout releases on labels like Mutual Rytm and Figure. Their live sets channel dynamic, forward-thinking energy, and now they bring that momentum to FJAAK's ever-expanding CROWD family. With the Blue Light EP, Glaskin deliver four impeccably groovy tracks that balance stripped-down flair and shimmering texture.

This release marks a fierce debut on CROWD for Gary Beck – four no-nonsense weapons crafted for peak-time moments and the rawer corners of the club. A heavy-hitting addition to the label’s catalog and a must-have for techno selectors with a taste for precision and punch.

New SPND20 Mixtape just landed, welcome @olateks! 📼 Resident of Warsaw’s Jasna 1 and driving force behind the legendary Move Mózg series, Ola Teks has been shaping Poland’s electronic scene with sets that flow between deep techno and classic house - always guided by intuition and emotion. Recognized by platforms like Boiler Room, Arte Concert, and Mixmag, she’s built a reputation for turning every dancefloor into a story. Her SPND20 mix is both a showcase of her own sound and a tribute to the spirit of the Spandau family, whose energy has accompanied her since the very start. Fittingly, Ola was the first to bring FJAAK & SPANDAU20 abroad, booking us in Poland back in 2011/2012 - a milestone that still means a lot to us today. Recorded at home in Warsaw, the mix begins with an intimate glow, rises into full club intensity, and lands gently back down. Along the way: spacious textures, tribal grooves, melancholic-yet-uplifting energy, timeless gems like I:Cube’s 11 Novembre, fresh fire from BAUGRUPPE90 and Cult, an unreleased track by Contakt, plus local heat from 2shy of Privet Press. It’s raw, flowing, and straight from the heart - stitched together with precision, freedom, and deep respect.

New SPND20 Mixtape! In session: @gaston-volpe 📼 Straight from Buenos Aires, Volpe knows how to turn grooves into full-body experiences. A regular at Berlin’s Tresor, RSO and Berghain, he’s also left his mark as a producer with releases on a.r.t.less, Mitsubasa, Frenzy, and Sungate. Through his own imprint Transcend, he champions timeless sounds that cut across genres while keeping the focus on depth and groove. This SPND20 Mix captures that spirit in motion: a live jam on the Ableton Push 3, weaving unreleased cuts and reworked remixes into a high-energy ride. Rolling drums, jazzy progressions, and waves of delay and echo pull Detroit and Dub techno into dialogue with tribal house and Latin/Cuban/African rhythms. Raw, fluid, and glowing with Volpe’s unmistakable touch - precision layered with freedom, structure fused with soul. Tune in and let the groove move you. 🖤

Buy here: found.ee/crowd008 With the Scratch EP, Scottish techno powerhouse Gary Beck delivers four razor-sharp cuts that bring raw energy and dancefloor pressure to FJAAK’s label CROWD. Known for his unmistakable grooves and stripped-down power, Beck presents a no-frills EP that bridges classic techno aesthetics with forward momentum. Opening with the single ‘French System’, the EP kicks off in full throttle. It’s a propulsive roller built around tough drums, catchy synths, a female vocal leading the way and Beck’s signature percussive tension. Title track ‘Scratch’ follows with a twitchy, angular rhythm that spirals around a fragmented vocal motif and bold machine-funk energy with tense breaks leading to ecstatic drops. On the record’s flip side, ‘How Do You Feel’ keeps the level high, fusing jacking rhythms with a funky vocal and a Beck’s heavy signature kicks. Finally, ‘Eclipse’ closes the EP pushing the energy into darker territories with relentless drive, its distorted pulse and industrial edge. This release marks a fierce debut on CROWD for Gary Beck – four no-nonsense weapons crafted for peak-time moments and the rawer corners of the club. A heavy-hitting addition to the label’s catalog and a must-have for techno selectors with a taste for precision and punch.

New SPND20 Mixtape in: welcome Function!📼 One of techno’s true underground heroes, Function steps in with a mix that captures the essence of his club sound: deep, dark, hypnotic and intensely layered. Cerebral yet physical, this set distills over 30 years of experience into a rolling trip that’s as uncompromising as it is immersive. Recorded in Berlin with a Xone 96, with Function’s signature sound design woven throughout, the mix bridges heavyweight classics and future-shaping material. Kicking off with Nastia Reigel’s massive new remix of his own Disaffected, it showcases three tracks from her upcoming debut album Identity (out September 26 on Infrastructure). The selection runs wide: from Regis, Rødhâd, LSD, Nørbak, Nastia Reigel, Ignez, Rene Wise, Silent Servant, Alarico and UFO95 to unreleased gems by Filippo Scorcucchi - alongside Function’s own productions, edits and textures. The result is a hypnotic, high-pressure session built for the club’s inner core, designed for maximum immersion and intensity. A rare insight into the craft of one of techno’s most enduring innovators. Expect a journey that tunnels deep, bends time, and refuses to let go. 🖤

New SPND20 Mixtape in: welcome @annazwerk! 📼 A core member of the SPANDAU20 family, ANNA Z. steps up with a mix that mirrors her fearless approach to sound and art. Rooted in architecture and code-driven visual work, her world is one where hardware, modular synths, and bold experimentation collide. Her signature sound has carved out a space across some of Europe’s most iconic clubs - from Fuse and Blitz to Berghain and La Gaîté Lyrique - always delivering sets that are both hyper-detailed and wildly imaginative.✨ She also runs KOMI, her monthly show on Munich’s Radio80k. A free-spirited platform where Anna explores electronic and experimental music with the same curiosity and edge that define her live sets. This mixtape is no exception: precision meets chaos, a journey 46 tracks deep, hardwired with analog and IDM textures, and stitched together with three unreleased tracks from Anna herself - jammed straight from the machines. Expect a tactile, free, future-facing rollercoaster ride: juicy, alive, and full of surprises. This mix pulls you in and doesn’t let go. Tune in 🖤

New SPND20 Mixtape incoming! Welcome @norbakmusic 📼 A crucial force in today’s techno environment, Nørbak has built a sound that balances precision with power. With his knowledge in the genre’s tradition and eyes fixed firmly on the future, the Portuguese producer blends classic sensibilities with cutting-edge sound design - the result is a sonic identity that’s earned him releases on labels like Token and his own collective, Hayes, as well as consistent support from the scene’s top selectors.🔊 Nørbak’s sets are crafted, intense, and always evolving and this mix is no exception. Recorded in the lead-up to a run of important summer dates, it captures a moment of high creative energy. A collection of tracks handpicked and received from close friends, plus a few unreleased of his own, the mix is both personal and powerful.

Our new SPND20 Mixtape comes from none other than the mighty @official-mr-g. 📼 If you know, you know: Mr. G is one of dance music’s true originals. From the early days in the legendary KCC crew and his influential work as half of The Advent, to decades of solo output under his own name, Colin McBean has never strayed from his roots. With releases on Rekids, Moods ‘n’ Grooves, Defected, and his own long-running Phoenix G imprint, his raw, bass-heavy electronic-tech-funk sound has moved floors and minds all over the world. Now, for one of his rare mixtape appearances, we’re honored to share this special vinyl-only piece from his archive. Recorded on two Technics 1210's and a Rane MP2015 mixer and mixed down to CD with added weight, the mix had been sleeping for years until Mr. G pressed play and surprised even himself. It’s meditative, deep, and packed with the personality you only get when the machines are running hot. It captures the raw energy, honesty, and unmistakable feel that only Mr. G can deliver: just pure groove, and even a cheeky cable cut halfway through that adds to the charm. It’s not often he shares this side, so we’re grateful he let us dig it out. For us, it’s a perfect snapshot of where he comes from and what he still brings to the table today. A true original. So you better put on those headphones and dive deep into this one!🔊

Glasgow’s @garybeck steps up for the latest SPND20 Mixtape!📼 A true legend of the scene, Gary has been influencing techno with his signature sound since his emergence in 2007. With a career shaped by dedication to his craft, he’s earned deep respect from peers and dancers alike - and has stayed true to his roots every step of the way. Known for his unmistakable sound and a catalog that includes releases on Soma, Mutual Rytm and his own label BEK Audio, his music carries weight, but always with a focus on groove and movement. For this mix, Gary invites us into his creative world with a selection made up almost entirely of unreleased personal material (some of it might be landing sooner than you think - so keep those ears open!)👂. A raw, rolling journey that reflects how he approaches DJing: direct, honest, and flowing from start to finish. Recorded simply on an A&H Xone 92 and three CDJ2000 Nexus II, it’s less about dramatic peaks but more about sustained energy - staying in the zone and letting the rhythm speak. Press play and get lost in it.🔊

Let’s welcome back @elliacula to our SPND20 Mixtape series!📼 From vinyl only sessions in Berlin’s underground clubs to festival stages across the globe, Elli Acula has built a reputation for DJ sets and productions that are as precise as they are explosive. As a founding member and creative director of SPANDAU20, she’s been shaping the label’s sound from day one - bridging the worlds of Techno, Rave and Electro with a focus on rhythm, energy and real old school groove.

Across just an hour, she blends and bends styles: from propulsive Techno and Acid to deep grooves, breakbeats with flashes of IDM. Expect shifting tempos, evolving textures, and detailed transitions - mixed mostly across four decks. It’s all about flow, each track plays its role in something bigger - the kind of mix that invites you in and keeps you there, locked into the groove. Get ready to immerse yourself in Elli Acula’s world.🤍

A true legend lands on the latest SPND20 Mixtape 📼: @luke-slater joins the fold with a rare live set recording, captured in the thick of touring his ‘Sky Scraping’ album on Token. Recorded live, this set channels the intensity and precision that only decades of experience can deliver. Pure hardware power, relentless tension, and deep, mind-bending grooves. This is techno at its most alive.🔊 Luke Slater’s legacy runs deep. Over the last three decades, the UK-born artist has shaped electronic music under many monikers - while running the influential Mote-Evolver label and constantly pushing the boundaries of sound design, structure, and club impact. From early Warp releases to Berghain classics, he’s never stopped innovating. The release of Temporary Suspension on Ostgut Ton in 2009 marked the powerful return of Slater as Planetary Assault Systems - reigniting the fire of classic techno and setting the tone for a new era of live performance. This recording is a snapshot of that exact energy: deep, hypnotic, and unrelenting. Expect pure techno power from one of its most vital architects. 🎛️ We’re honored to have him join the mixtape series. Play it loud. This one’s from the source.🖤 #SPANDAU20 #PlanetaryAssaultSystems #Techno #SPND20Mixtape #LukeSlater #LiveSet

Buy here: found.ee/spandau20-010 Spandau20, an imprint named after the Western Berlin district and focused on artists from the area, delivers techno in all diverse forms – from warehouse and electronic peak time beats to breaks and IDM, balancing the old and new school sounds flawlessly. With a focus on vinyl releases, for the collectors, Spandau20 has lately also focused on its label nights, with showcases at Fabric, Bassiani and many others. The label’s 10th release features 10 tracks that epitomise the musical diversity of Spandau20 and the progressive musical mindset of its roster, calling on the label favourites and Spandau natives to deliver brand new and exciting music. This special release even features one track that all artists have worked on together: ‘Come Closer’, a swarming, slithering beginning featured as the VA’s opener. Its barely coherent female vocal echoing amidst a cacophony of demon-like effects. The chilling ambience captured at the offset transcends into the first full length track by Elli Acula, ‘Floating Eyes’, a cur characterised by an authoritative, pounding bass featuring calculated percussive rolls and metallic overtones to make for a face-scrunching opener to this devilish collection of works. FJAAK follow for the first of twin cameo appearances, partnering up with fellow live supremo and hardware aficionado KiNK. On ‘Overbridge’ the trio deliver a cavernous, rolling number driven by a deep thrumming bass in addition to a razor-edged lead synth, and pulsating technopattern. Dajusch is known for incorporating his years of classical study in with his immersive musical style – and with his VA effort the Berlin native neatly showcases this. Easing the energy slightly, ‘Move’ escalates from its warm, melodic intro into rumbling goliath of a beat comprising a looping, slew of gassy harmonics. The momentum of the release shifts considerably with the introduction of acutely versatile producer, DJ and sound artist Claus. The artist from Spandau leans his track ‘Bloomscroll’ towards sparse, dubby sonics in which he intricately ties together to form churning, burgeoning soundscape. FJAAK jolt proceedings back into the techno groove with their signature blend of arresting sub-bass and reverberating rhythms, which come thick, fast and heavy on ‘Jackfruit’. The abstract wonder of Anna Z’s broken-beat like stylings is fully explored on ‘Icy Liq’. It’s outlandish and amorphous in its execution, causing a clattering percussive chaos that’s choicely pieced together by the modular-extraordinaire. Nikk stealthy moves into breaks territory with his track ‘Down In The Shadows’, packing a trap-like snare with an acid-flecked melody and dawn-breaking, dream-like textures. The penultimate track on the VA is ‘Tufted’. J.Manuel expertly employs a chorus of robot-like sonics that course through a short-circuiting low-end to produce a pacy, inescapable journey via a whirling, merciless beat. He is joined by the legendary producer Tobi Neumann for their menacingly ambient number titled ‘Fennec.’ In parts a nod to UK dubstep, the duo concocts a fierce admixture of styles bolstering tribal-like components with industrialised overtones and methodically crafted drum-fills.
