Gated Recordings Podcast 70 Another month, another descent into the machinery. This time the controls are handed to Mihail P, a producer and DJ with a taste for techno that stretches across eras without sounding like a museum tour. His productions and DJ sets lean toward deep atmospheres, melodic pressure and patient groove science, the sort of tracks that unfold gradually while you realise twenty minutes have passed and you have been staring approvingly at a hi-hat. For this mix Mihail pulls together a wide sweep of techno history. Early 90s futurist tackle, mid 90s machine funk, deeper 2000s explorations and a few newer transmissions for good measure. There are moments of Detroit-tinged elegance, UK techno grit, deep space drift and late night warehouse hypnosis. Proper heads-down music. Alongside his production work, Mihail runs Earthbound Recordings, his own imprint dedicated to atmospheric, thoughtful techno. The second release on the label, Earthbound002, is currently around the corner and should be landing very soon, so keep your radar tuned for that one. Before the mix begins there is also the usual brief look at what is happening in the Gated orbit. If you want to explore the label further, you can find our releases here: https://gatedrecordings.bandcamp.com/ You can follow Mihail and Earthbound here: https://soundcloud.com/earthboundrecordings Then it is over to Mihail to do the rest.
