69DB
69DB
“Long before the rise of hard, hypnotic dance music as a dominant genre, there was 69db.” — Dekmantel, 2024 A key innovator in the 1990s Hardtec and Tribe scenes, 69db has been pushing the boundaries of live improvised sets since 1991.
As a founding member of Spiral Tribe and R-Zac, he played a pivotal role in shaping the underground rave culture and co-founded Network 23 Recordings, a label that defined the sound of the free party movement in the 1990s. Today, Network 23 continues to inspire a new generation of hard techno producers. The renewed interest in 90s hard techno has been reflected in record sales. In 2023 alone, 69db released four EPs on Berlin’s Sound Metaphors and a double EP, along with a five-record box set, on Rotterdam’s PRSPCT label — all of which sold out.
Responding to this demand, he and his R-Zac partner, Crystal Distortion, launched the “23 Records or Bust!” series, reissuing 23 records from their 90s catalog. The first nine releases sold out in under a year, proving the timeless appeal of their work. In early 2024, 69db debuted Rooted Sky under his new project, Wave Arising, in collaboration with movement specialist Kynsie Serre. This project blends ambient, tribal, experimental, and hard techno, further expanding his live improvisational approach. The Wave Arising Liveset by 69db, praised for its fusion of hard tribal techno with dub techniques, has already garnered critical acclaim, with Resident Advisor naming it one of the standout performances at Dekmantel 2024.
69db remains a force in electronic music, continuing to evolve his sound and inspire audiences worldwide”

In 2001 they launched their first project, The Twins Artcore.
Two years later, in 2003, they made their live debut as resident DJs at The Street Garden. During this period they joined the historic Roman crew Hardfuck Production, playing at the most important parties in the capital and releasing their first DJ sets online, quickly becoming recognizable figures within the underground scene. In 2005 they released Tranz Lirix, considered their most representative production, and simultaneously founded Twins Records. After several releases on their own label, they joined the legendary Mokum Records, releasing the EP Return of Artcore, affirming that Artcore—a subgenre of hardcore infused with drum’n’bass and acid trance—was not dead, but evolving.

In 2011 they released Fucking Artcore on Mokum Records in collaboration with Walter One, a key figure in Italian techno and hardcore, including the third remix of the historic track “Starjam Trantor” (1995).

SURVIVAL
SURVIVAL
Survival is a producer born in Italy and currently active across Europe. In 2013, he developed a strong connection with electronic music and free party culture, joining the Psycotik_crew collective the same year—an experience that deeply shaped his artistic identity.
His first approach to drum machines and synthesizers came through a setup featuring the Korg EMX1 and ESX1, later expanding to the Yamaha RS7000 and many other synthesizers. Over time, Survival developed a powerful and corrosive sound, inspired by Northern European rhythms and dark ambient atmospheres.
Today, he delivers high-intensity live sets aimed at those seeking intense, immersive sonic explosions, moving between industrial, mental music, and acid techno.
TEKA
TEKA
Manuel, known in the underground scene as TEKA, is an Italian music producer born in 1991 and raised between Modena and Bologna, with deep roots in the heart of Italy. His passion for music emerged during his teenage years, when he discovered the raw energy of the underground tekno movement. Together with a group of local friends, he immersed himself in mixing and production, starting with little more than old PCs, a drum machine, and a pair of budget CDJs.
His dedication soon paid off when they became part of the Sbirulina Tekno Clan, bringing their sound to parties across Bologna and Modena and releasing their first tracks on Myspace and SoundCloud. A major turning point came in 2009 at the Witchtek Festival, where they gained attention thanks to their self-built sound system. After several intense years, TEKA took a break in 2013 to focus on personal growth. By the end of 2015, the pull of the scene proved irresistible. TEKA reunited with long-time friend Bobbykush, reviving the spirit of the original crew under the name Tekno Ghisa.
Soon after, KIMIK and ENIGMATIK joined the project, while TEKA’s powerful beats were released on respected labels such as Tekno City Records, 5 Dan Records, and Rave Forest Records. His collaborations include prominent names from the scene such as Newlojik, Lucatek, and Abstrakt. A strong creative bond with Nesh Mayday of the Mayday Sound System led to an important vinyl release on Bass Addict Records. In 2020, TEKA took another decisive step, leaving Tekno Ghisa to join the Mayday Crew alongside Nesh, Stiwie, and Discoutsider.
His discography continues to grow with vinyl releases on Notsell Recordz, Kumite Records, Kostik Records, and Fat Fury. Defined by heavy kick bass, groovy basslines, and hardcore-driven energy, TEKA’s sound keeps pushing the boundaries of the EDM scene, cementing his place as a leading force in underground tekno.
TRIPTIK-HOLE
TRIPTIK-HOLE
TRIPTIK-HOLE is a new live project born from the creative encounter between Andy Atman and a network of like-minded musicians and performers, united by the desire to explore hybrid and deeply immersive sonic territories. The project takes shape as a space for experimentation, where electronic music becomes a collective and ever-evolving language.
The sound of TRIPTIK-HOLE moves between hypnotic techno, psy-tech, and experimental electronic structures, built through dynamic, modular live sets. Each performance is conceived as a sensory experience, where rhythm, texture, and sonic depth intertwine within a non-linear narrative flow. True to the underground spirit that defines Andy Atman’s path, TRIPTIK-HOLE is designed for alternative club and festival contexts, reaching its full expression in settings where the audience becomes an active part of the experience.
Open to collaboration and mutation, the project ensures that every performance is unique and unrepeatable.
