Oscar Mulero – Resident Advisor podcast #596 2017-09-30
“Deeper shades of techno.
There was a nice bit in the interview we did with Oscar Mulero a few years ago, where he was talking about setting up THE OMEN club with his friends in Madrid in the mid-’90s. “We actually had no clue there was an Omen club in Frankfurt at that time,” he said, referring to Sven Vath’s legendary venue. It’s easy to forget that not so long ago the international techno scene wasn’t really a scene at all, with isolated pockets of activity scattered around the globe. The big DJs from the UK, the US and Germany were beginning to travel regularly for the first time, but it was thanks to regional DJs like Mulero that they had clubs and scenes to go play in. These days Mulero is recognised as an artist who made Spain part of the European techno conversation.
You can trace Mulero’s evolution through one of his labels, Warm Up Recordings, which got started back in 2000 and is about to release its 50th record. Mulero’s tough, loop-driven sound of the 2000s gradually gives way to more heady and nuanced music. You’ll also find examples of this scattered across the discography of his other label, PoleGroup Recordings, as well as other leading techno outlets like Token, Mord and Semantica, the label that will release his next album in early 2018. We get a taste of other new material on Mulero’s RA podcast, which pulls in some unreleased music as well as other new cuts from across the techno scene.
The result is 60 minutes of mesmerising music—a style that’s helped Mulero become one of techno’s best and busiest DJs.”
