Step into the booth for this exclusive look back at one of my favorite sets of 2024. In this episode, I’m revisiting the full two-hour warm-up session I played at the iconic Gaskessel Bern, setting the stage for the powerhouse herself, Daria Kolosova. A warm-up set is more than just “early music” it’s about architectural tension. The goal for this night was to create a journey that allowed the room to breathe while steadily building the sonic pressure required for the high-octane energy Daria Kolosova is known for. From deep, atmospheric textures to driving, rhythmic pulses, this set was crafted to bridge the gap between the calm of the early evening and the peak-time intensity that followed. Whether you were on the floor that night or are just discovering these tracks, this mix captures the anticipation and the distinct energy of the well known Techno event SOMNIA at Gaskessel Bern.

We’re diving into the archives for a special holiday highlight. Recorded live during our Techno Xmas event back in December 2023, this set captures the uncompromising intensity and refined precision that Anika Kunst brings to the booth. Anika is renowned for her ability to fuse classic techno sensibilities with a modern, driving aesthetic. During this set, she masterfully navigated the room’s energy, delivering a performance that was equal parts hypnotic, driving, and festive. This was a night defined by heavy, rolling basslines and the kind of peak-time atmosphere that made our holiday celebration truly unforgettable. Plug in, turn it up, and revisit one of the most electric nights we hosted in 2023.
