60 minutes with exclusive and unreleased tracks. Hosted by Gordon Gieseking, Aine Devaney, and Malte Tarnow on Radio BLN.FM.

The new generation of beat smiths understands Hip Hop, Techno and the diverse new styles between electronic and organic grooves evolving from them, not as a mere pose, but as an aesthetic principle, exploring the boundaries of these musical styles.

Therefore, the crucial artistic questions are – How can you make known subjects in other contexts and how abstract can it be? How do the individual environments, experiences and personal circumnstances influence the artists and how is this reflected in their music?

We can now gather some of these arising artists on this concept, allowing you to become familiar with these extraordinary musicians.

The compilations and events show the wide range of this emerging beat music scene, the originality of each artist and are an attempt to unite very different types of artists to a common denominator: Finest Ego

    Finest Ego #37 mit Max Cooper

    Finest Ego #37 mit Max Cooper

    60 minutes with exclusive and unreleased tracks. Hosted by Aine Devaney and Malte Tarnow on Radio BLN.FM. ▸▸ Every second Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday of the month (October, 14th / 15th / 19th at 8/9/10 PM CET).

    We had the chance to catch some words from the Belfast born DJ and producer Max Cooper amid his ever loaded schedule. Kicking off his career as a DJ in the late nineties, he delved into production by the early noughties only to emerge as one of technos most stylistically identifiable producers. His idiosyncratic approach to production offers a loyalist techno framework whilst breathing fluid melodies into its structures. Having received a PH.D in Computational Biology, Max’s fascination with science, especially genetics, has been a fundamental inspiration for a lot of his music, giving it a unique grounding. With this mind, he released his greatly anticipated debut album titled ‘Human’ last March.

    Without handing all power over to the machines, Maxes ability to infuse classic techno with an innate warmth sets him apart from the rest.

    The show includes music from submerse, Max Cooper, Chancha Via Circuito, Mariam Garcia, Thomas Scholz, Rampue, Deft, Seekae, kidkanevil, Yosi Horikawa, Daisuke Tanabe, KRTS, Firejosé, Kathrin DeBoer, Nils Frahm, Lusine, Quentin Collins, Jack Stevens, Trousseaux, Aphex Twin, Drexciya and many more…

    Finest Ego #36 mit RY X von 'The Acid'

    Finest Ego #36 mit RY X von 'The Acid'

    60 minutes with exclusive and unreleased tracks. Hosted by Aine Devaney and Malte Tarnow on Radio BLN.FM. ▸▸ Every second Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday of the month (September, 9th / 10th / 14th at 8/9/10 PM CET).

    With his lush intimate solo compositions and intriguing creative collaborations the artist Ry X has recently come centre stage into the music scene with his fresh, almost naked emotional performances. Born on a small Island off the coast of Australia, he’s somewhat of a nomad, having lived all around from Berlin to the mountains of California. Upon signing with Stockholm based label Dumont Dumont with his debut Ep ‘Berlin‘, Ry’s distinctive husky and naked vocal performances have enthralled and captivated an ever growing audience.
    From where he began with indie/folk, Ry moved to Berlin and was opened up to the world of electronic music through fellow musicians and producers. Teaming up with Frank Wiedemann in 2012, he ventured into more dance oriented music with their project ‘Howling‘, garnering support and interest within the electronic music scene
    His most recent musical endeavour ‘The Acid‘, see’s him joining forces with DJ & Producer Adam Freeland and Californian producer, composer, professor of music technology Steve Nalepa. Their recent album ‘Luminal‘ displays the raw emotion of Ry X combined with eerie almost aggressive at times productions. A spontaneous union yet nothing short of perfection.

    The show includes music from submerse, RY X, The Acid, Howling, Swoon, Alphabets Heaven, Deft, Ard Bit, Lotide, Nuage, Marina Quaisse, Memotone, Soosh, Memoosh, Roman Flügel, Frederico Albanese, John Lemke and many more…
