“What does great techno sound like in 2024? Enter LYDO. This week’s RA Podcast captures @lydole in full flow, combining the old-school vernacular of European and North American techno—reduced rhythms, hi-hats and punchy 909s—with tracks from the new guard (Sev Dah, GiGi FM, D.Dan) sprinkled throughout.
After moving to New York in 2015, the Vietnamese-American sound artist and X-XTRA.SERVICES founder became one of BASEMENT’s first residents; the scene built around the revered Queens club has helped nurture their adventurous sound. Lately they’ve been making waves beyond North America, playing with the MARICAS crew in Barcelona and locking down slots at De School, Bassiani and Draaimolen.
RA.947 is the sound of artful hypnosis: it’s techno with elegance, depth and just the right amount of thump. Rig this up on a proper system, turn off the lights and any worries—about the genre’s direction of travel, or otherwise—might melt away.”
