DJ Morgan | True Techno 102

Episode 102

Thursday, November 20, 2025 • Duration 01:08:48

DJ Morgan, producer and founder of HardNRG.com – one of the first major online platforms to promote hard house across the United States, showcasing exclusive sets from leading artists around the globe.

His own productions and DJ mixes blew up his international profile, seeing him tour extensively and earn a reputation as a highly influential figure in the early US hard dance movement. “When I went to my first rave, it all came together – a scene developing before my eyes, opening me up to entirely new ways of thinking about music,” he recalls.

The 1990s US dance scene was raw, experimental, and fiercely inclusive. “Everyone was welcome. Positive vibes came in, and out went the punk rock and industrial angst,” says DJ Morgan. While Europe evolved into a vast festival culture, America’s underground stayed stripped-back and communal. “Out of a thousand records, you might find twenty or so dedicated to harder styles,” he remembers. The arrival of early internet record hubs like Juno Records and Banging Tunes finally gave him access to the European records that would later inspire his mission.

In 1999, DJ Morgan launched HardNRG.com, one of the world’s first free online mix platforms – years ahead of SoundCloud or Mixcloud. “The goal was simple: get mixes from the best artists across Europe to ravers for free, and help spread the music across America.” The site became a global hub for hard house mixes. It featured some of the era’s biggest names, including Andy Farley, Anne Savage, BK, Captain Tinrib, Dynamic Intervention, Lisa Lashes, Karim, Lisa Pin-Up, Nick Sentience, Rodi Style, and Superfast Oz.

Building on that success, DJ Morgan co-founded Lotek Records, releasing tracks from Defective Audio, Dynamic Intervention, Pranksterz, Rubec, Chris C, and Madam Zu while producing his own material for Lotek and releases on Kaktai & DIP Records, including No Law, Unknown Technique, and Severe Trauma, rooted in harder-edged trance and NRG.

DJ Morgan helped pave the way for the early hard dance scene in San Francisco. “We started a club night and threw several underground parties while helping others in the scene put on events,” he explains. “Many of our DJs went on to play across North America and internationally. I had a great run of it myself, playing regularly across the US and Canada, and as far as the UK, Finland, Japan, and Australia.”

In parallel, he built a career in the video game industry, working with Activision, Sega, EA, and Blizzard on projects for major franchises including Command & Conquer and Warcraft. “My background in music allowed me to immediately speak with audio designers and engineers to hit the ground running,” he says.

Now based in Thailand, Morgan has returned to DJing with a renewed focus, performing across Techno, Hard Techno, Hard Trance, and Psy-Trance. “I play what I like, rather than chasing what is popular. This way, I’m playing the music I love and am excited to share with everyone.” With upcoming gigs in Bangkok, before heading to Pattaya and Phuket, the former US hard house pioneer continues to connect with audiences by combining the underground energy of his past with today’s global hard dance revival.

True Techno 101 | M.F.S: Observatory

Episode 101

Wednesday, November 12, 2025 • Duration 01:00:12

Italian-born and London-based, Mattia Turchetti, known as M.F.S: Observatory, has spent the past decade refining a sound that sits between engineering precision and raw club instinct.

His productions and DJ sets balance M.F.S: Obervatory’s hypnotic repetition with emotional restraint, merging the discipline of a sound designer with the pulse of a dancefloor tactician. “My first musical memories come from home,” he begins. “My brother introduced me to electronic music, while my parents played Italian artists like Pino Daniele, Fabrizio De André, and Francesco De Gregori. That mix of emotion, melody, and rhythm shaped my ear from an early age. I started experimenting with drum machines and early software, fascinated by how rhythm could control a room. That curiosity slowly evolved into DJing and then producing my own music.”

The alias came later, carrying both geographical and philosophical weight. “I’m from a village facing Mount Vesuvio, where the observatory stands, and that idea of watching and listening from above felt powerful. We started as a trio, but over time it became my solo project. The name stayed because it reflects how I approach music: always observing, studying, and experimenting with sound.”

Growing up in Naples meant being immersed in a rhythmic culture where groove is everything. “I grew up surrounded by the house and tech-house scene in Naples, which has a strong groove-based culture. Later, after moving to London and traveling through Europe, I was drawn toward deeper and more hypnotic techno. Artists and labels that build emotion through minimalism and tension influenced me most; I’ve always been attracted to music that pulls you in slowly.”

Turchetti’s formal background in sound design gave structure to that instinct. He studied Music and Sound Design in London, followed by a master’s in Sonic Arts at Goldsmiths. “Sound design taught me to treat frequencies as materials and to shape space, not just fill it,” he says. “Every sound has a role and emotional weight. I think a lot about how frequencies interact and how to use silence and dynamics to build tension – both in production and in a DJ set.”

His early career took shape through small underground labels that supported his first releases before his name began appearing on international imprints. “It started with small underground labels that believed in my early music. Those first releases helped me build connections and confidence. As my sound evolved, international labels began to notice, and my tracks started reaching new audiences across Europe. Playing abroad and hearing my music in different cities were important milestones that showed me this could grow into a real career.”

Tuesday, May 27, 2025 • Duration 59:47

AIROD’s journey into electronic music began with early inspirations from Daft Punk and artists like Sébastien Benett and Joachim Garraud.

His breakout occurred in 2018 with a solo 12″ release on Molekül, garnering support from techno heavyweights such as Dasha Rush and Overmono. This success propelled him onto stages at renowned venues and festivals, including Suicide Circus in Berlin, The Steelyard in London, and Tomorrowland in Belgium.

His collaborations with Amelie Lens, notably the “Voltage” EP on Lenske, solidified his reputation for delivering high-octane, dancefloor-ready tracks.

Beyond his productions, AIROD is the founder of Elixyr Records, a label dedicated to supporting emerging artists and pushing innovative sounds within the techno genre.

Lola Cerise | True Techno Podcast 90

Episode 90

Wednesday, May 21, 2025 • Duration 59:50

Lola Cerise is a French DJ based in Paris, who was born into a family of creatives — her mother was a classical musician, and her uncle a chief orchestra conductor who worked with artists like Mstislav Rostropovich.

She learned piano as a child but embraced a rebellious streak inherited from her mother, which led her to explore her own path. In her teenage years, Lola Cerise became a regular at illegal raves, where she discovered acidcore, tribal, and tribe core.

Lola has spoken openly about her mother’s battle with depression following her parents’ divorce. That experience deeply shaped her independent mindset and hardworking attitude. Ironically, it was also her mother — who had herself dropped out of classical music school and joined Germany’s early techno scene — who supported Lola’s eventual career pivot into music.

At 18, Lola moved to Lyon to study art and pursued photography professionally. She later dropped out of university, supporting herself by modeling for brands like A.P.C., Eric Tibusch, and Silvian Heach. After a few years, she realized photography wasn’t her calling and relocated to Australia, where she spent three years.

During the pandemic, she reconnected with rave culture and began DJing — picking up professional gear from closing clubs. Within a year, she started producing and made a bold decision: to leave everything behind and start over in Paris, dedicating herself fully to music.

Lola Cerise has since released on Gomboc Records, Comme des les Films, Khazad Records, and Record Union. Supported by the likes of Indira Paganotto, I Hate Models, and Cera Khin, she also landed a residency at the legendary Gotec Club and launched her own label, First Date Without Panties.

Now cementing her name in the scene as a producer to watch, she’s delivered mixes for BCCO Berlin and a live stream with HÖR Berlin. In May, she’s set to release an 6-track mini-LP on — a varied and exciting collection of tracks from the last two years that marks a milestone in her creative evolution.

Valentinø | True Techno Podcast 86

Episode 80

Thursday, March 6, 2025 • Duration 00:00

Valentinø is the alias of Italian DJ and producer Valentino Marchiori, based in Genoa, Italy. The founder of Mantra Club since 2016 in the suburbs of the city, he also runs his own label, Overtime Records. His label and others have provided a platform for his trademark sound incorporating hypnotic melodies and frenetic rhythms within the techno and Psy-Trance genres. “Psy-Trance is a sound that I most resonate with and helps me to represent myself in the most authentic way”.

He started out his DJ career playing in Genoa, and became recognised for his style, but felt that this wasn’t fulfilling his goals, and started to work on the idea of opening his own club. “Mantra Club was opened in 2016 and became a point of reference, and a home for all the people who love music from my city and beyond”.

He was involved in the curation of the very first Genova Dance Parade in 2023, an innovative formula combining electronic music, fun and sustainability for over 50,000 people in every street corner of the city. Its impact was significant, and gave Genoa more visibility on an international level, and he hopes to continue strengthening the city as a music destination for years to come with events like this.

Valentinø’s very first single ‘Activity’ appeared in 2017, on Marco Bailey’s Materia label as part of a VA, which lead to his debut follow up EP ‘My Way’. After its success, he secured further releases on Etruria Beat, Suara, Second State, Off Recordings and Galactica Festival’s label.

However, the turning point in his career, was his most recent release was on Indira Paganotto’s mighty ARTCORE Records, with his debut EP ‘Baba Baby’ in February 2024. Two original tracks embodying the ARTCORE aesthetic, with unearthly vocals, pummelling basslines and off-kilter drum breaks. The title track was his highest charting to date, positioned at No.4 on Beatport’s Psy-Trance chart. He followed this, with his single ‘Space Travel’ featured on their OFFSonar VA release in June 2024. A hardstyle track on a psychedelic path with razor synths, a penetrating bass and warping overtone.

Now part of the ARTCORE family, he played for the labels OFFSonar showcase in Barcelona, as well as their Ritvales showcase in Medellin, but has already amounted a lot of key club plays for Fabrik Madrid, Cocorico, ilMuretto, Khidi Tiblisi, Spazio 900, Vastion Group Festival, Complex Maastricht, Complex, and a debut at Amnesia Ibiza alongside Indira in the Club Room for her takeover as part of Joseph Capriati’s Metamorphosis party.
