Reclaim Your City

• Reclaim Your City 629 | Mathys Lenne

  Responsible for a handful of head-turning releases via the likes of MORD, Hayes and Float Records this past couple of years, on-the-rise techno producer Mathys Lenne clocks in our series with a mindtrip that’ll knock your socks off. Championing a sound both deep-diving, rugged and hi-intensity thru and thru, the Frenchman treats us to a storm of steely firepower and post-apocalyptic brainwaves. His mix of cerebral wares and shape-shifting, industrial-informed machine talk takes us straight back to the heyday of raving, when the sound we all love was not just a merchandise, but meant a whole new perspective on the world as we knew it.

• Reclaim Your City 628 | Juana

  Final mix of January comes courtesy of Chicago-born, Washington DC-based one and only Juana. Championing a sound both highly energetic and firmly contemporary, the American DJ and producer has us working out with every bar. From strapping 4x4 charges to gut-churning brain intruders, onto experimental-leaning glides and further esoteric drifts, Juana’s dance floor hoodoo is as bewitching as it is deadly. Spanning harsh industrial, rough-hewn proto-techno and lo-slung machine funk, her RYC mix ticks all the boxes of a grade-A puzzler, eyes constantly set on that next killer loop that’ll get the crowd veering off into pure XTC.

• Reclaim Your City 627 | Vincent Neumann

  Psychotherapist by day, mind-hacker by night, here comes Leipzig’s Vincent Neumann with two hours of widely versatile techno and electronics. All in jagged dynamics and hi-NRG propulsion, Neumann’s mix is an ode to old-school raving, back when the DJ’s name was of no importance but the flow of the music itself was all that mattered, or when the true spirit of techno rhymed with riotous communion and a new horizon of possibilities, not some ultra fast-fashion side issue. The result is a fiery jaunt across some of those balls-out anthems old and new that got people converging from all around the country onto secret places, eager to let the socio-political frustration of their age out, regardless of how the norm thought of them. A manifesto-like set to play out loud and share around.

• Reclaim Your City 626 | Mary Yuzovskaya

  Next up in our series, we’re excited to welcome Mary Yuzovskaya, a DJ and producer whose surgical sense of the groove and love for minimal sound structures have become trademarks over the years. At the helm of her own record label, Monday Off, Mary puts in the same precision and effort she dishes out through all of her vinyl-only DJ sets. Stripped-back and highly cerebral, her style sits at the junction of heavily dubbed-out psychedelia, liquid abstraction and post-industrialism, and this mix doesn’t differ. Enter Yuzovskaya’s mazy new vinyl exclusive mix with crumbs of bread in your pocket and some red thread, for we’re yet to know where the labyrinth ends. But does it even have an end?

• Reclaim Your City 625 | Wata Igarashi

  Kicking off 2025 in the best company as Tokyo-born, Amsterdam-based don Wata Igarashi takes over with a masterclass in pulsating futuristic techno and widescreen sonics. Through a flurry of top-of-the-range releases for the likes of Dekmantel, Kompakt, Figure and his own imprint, WIP, the Japanese producer has been cementing his position as a true innovator of techno music. His unparalleled knack for crafting big-room-ready tunes that engineer a complex cocktail of cutting-edge elegance, modular intuitivity and hi-impact punch has logically made him a much sought-after talent in the scene. Not departing from that polymathic approach, his RYC mix, recorded at PURE G x FINAL in Taipei on December 7, treats us to a storm of shape-shifting grooves and brutalist fractals of sound. Beware, high voltage.
