Mantis Radio 085 + Scott Robinson

For our showcase session this week I’ve great pleasure in welcoming the machinations of Scott Robinson.

MIX: K.Larm + J.Raninen live at KTK3 25/02/2011

Those regular MANTIS listeners of you may well remember a slamming acid techno set from the fittingly named Acidizer back in June ’09. Acidizer is better known as J.Raninen and is often to be found producing and performing with friend and fellow all things acid enthusiast K.Larm. This is the recording of a liveset they [...]

MIX: Galaxian Live at DUM DUM

I know, I know, this is probably feeling overdue seeing as it’s a recording from back in late March. Still, it’s here now. What we’ve got is a great recording of Galaxian‘s live set at DUM DUM on March 26th at Bacchus in Glasgow. Don’t expect a tracklist, but do expect to hear raw forward [...]

Mantis Radio 083 + Vector Commander

Way back in March 2009 the 33rd Mantis Radioshow was broadcast. It’s showcase guest was Vector Commander. Fast forward to today, May 3rd 2011 and I’ve great pleasure in welcoming back to Mantis Radio Alex Strunz and his Vector Commander alias where once again he’ll be unleashing an hour of his own production work and quite personal take on techno.

mix: Galaxian – Live at Detatched, 05/03/2011

Galaxian makes forward thinking fresh sounding electro with a good thick layer of crunchy electronics thrown in there. His work sounds raw and at times is uncompromising. His recent album on Transient Force, Repent, is without going off in a chorus of description, great and very worthy of your attention. On Saturday, Galaxian made his [...]

VACU SESSIONS 14 – Kenneth Kirschner

The 14th VACU SESSIONS has arrived and it’s a deep drone based session from Kenneth Kirschner. September 25, 2010 (60 minute indeterminate version)

Mantis Radio 078 + Dead Sound + VideoHead (DVF)

Back in April 2010 I invited Dead Sound to lay down a showcase mix for the 60th show. By all accounts it was a great session. Since then I’ve been continually impressed by the production, arrangement and shear awesomeness of his production work. For the 78th show I’ve invited his collaborative project DVF to the showcase session.

Vector Commander Live PA at Mad Mondays 11/10/2010

Vector Commander aka Alex Strunz performed his live PA last week at the Mad Mondays event, and he happened to record the 2 hour performance. The Brazilian producer is quite a dab hand on the hardware, as this set (and his MANTIS Radio showcase back in March last year) will grandly attest to. So if [...]

K.Larm & J.Raninen live on Kokki303 / Bassoradio

Not sure why I didn’t post when I got my mitts on it back in May. I must have been out of it from all the acid spewing from within. You may remember J. Raninen from his showcase guest mix on MANTIS RADIO 041 way back in June last year. If you do, you’ll be [...]

Reeko live at Pole Night, El Jardín, 22/05/2010

I’ll keep this brief, this is Reeko dishing out his solid, heavy and rather relentless quality techno from back in May this year. No tracklist as yet (will see what I can do about that). Stick you ears around this for a good workout. If you are unfamiliar with Reeko, be so no longer: Juan [...]
