Deysa presents Techno Show Episode 15 on Scientific Sound Asia, with guest DJ El Brujo featured in the edition. Scientific Sound Asia is an electronic music radio station, DJ agency, promoter and music-news platform connecting audiences across Asia and internationally.
This fifteenth edition was scheduled for Thursday, 16 January 2020, and paired Deysa’s selection with a guest appearance by El Brujo. The programme centres on techno selections alongside several of Deysa’s own studio productions.
Deysa is a Romanian DJ and producer who first established a radio presence in 2009 through her resident show, Friday Fever, on Romania’s online station Radio DEEA. Her 2010 debut further placed her within the country’s underground electronic-music community.
Since then, Deysa has steadily developed her profile among the new wave of techno DJs. Her work has reached online audiences internationally while earning recognition within Romania’s underground community and elsewhere in Europe.
Her sets bring together different electronic sounds and genres, with deep melodic material set against more forceful rhythmic passages. That approach informs both her performances and her work as a producer.
Deysa is associated with the Underground Romanian Sound and has contributed to the Deep and Tech House scene in her home country. Her work has also brought her to audiences beyond Romania through club appearances and online broadcasts.
Her venue appearances include Studio Martin, Kristal Glam Club, Arenele Romane and Control Club in Bucharest, as well as Space in Ibiza. She has also played Zebra in Bacau, La Gazette in Cluj, Rivolta Marghera in Italy and Illusion in Montenegro.
Beyond club dates, Deysa has appeared at Romanian festivals including Airfield Festival, Fusion Festival, I Love Festival, Felsziget and Electric Castle. These appearances sit alongside her continuing work across the country’s electronic-music circuit.
In 2016, she held a residency at Molotov, an electronic-music bar in Vama Veche on Romania’s Black Sea coast. During that residency, she shared the stage with Boris Brejcha, Sharam, Sister Bliss of Faithless, Nastia, Jose Maria Ramon, Coyu, Ellen Allien, Lady Waks, Jay Lumen, Ali Nasser, Makam, The Model, Herodot, Simina Grigoriu, Ray Okpara and Federico Molinari, among others.
At the time of publication, Deysa was Manager at LETS Techno Records and was expected to feature occasional guests from the label on her show. She was also part of the Scientific Sound Asia DJ agency, pursuing bookings and performances across the Asian techno scene while developing promo tracks in the studio.
The programme opens with Deysa Djane’s Euphoria before Dusty Kid’s Sysma on Suara establishes the firm pace of Peak Time Techno. The pairing introduces Deysa’s own material alongside a concise, club-focused selection.
Deysa Djane follows with Madness and Shadows, keeping her productions at the centre of the early section. ANNA’s Galactic Highways then extends the techno emphasis before the set reaches its more forceful middle passage.
A*S*Y*S contributes Bassface on Suara, bringing a direct rhythmic edge to the selection. Aitor Ronda’s Tweezer, released on ELEVATE, follows with another focused techno record.
The later sequence includes Amelie Lens’ Hypnotised in the Joyhouser Remix and Dast’s Sitting In The Sun. Charlotte de Witte closes with Closer on her self-titled label, giving the programme a firm final statement.
Guest DJ El Brujo.
Guest DJ for the second hour, El Brujo, born Robert Milanesi in Italy in 1964, is a prominent figure in the underground techno scene. From an early age, El Brujo cultivated a deep passion for music, gaining significant recognition in 1994 as a key player in the underground rave movement in Bologna, Italy. His official debut came in 2008 with the track ‘Warriors,’ released on the Milan-based label Open Legs.
In 2011, El Brujo founded his own label, Jambalay Records, during an opening party at Club Geminis in Ibiza, Spain. This marked a pivotal moment in his career as he made a substantial impact on the global music scene. Notably, Maya Jane Coles featured his track ‘Mozambique,’ a collaboration with Big Mojo, in her February 2011 chart, further boosting his profile. This track also became his first physical CD release, titled ‘Nutty Fellas Are Go.’
El Brujo continued to rise in prominence, with his 2019 track ‘Plastic Dreams,’ originally released on Frame Works, reaching number 33 in the Beatport Hard Techno Top 100. Throughout his career, El Brujo has contributed to numerous labels, including Elektrax, Frame Workxx, LW Recordings, Subwoofer, Berlin After Dark, Music Is The Drug, Gobekli Tepe, Fortwin Rec, Bunker, Mad Rhythm, SE7ENS, Physical Techno, Professional Rockstars, Serapis, Dublin Xpress, SMR Underground, Hypnotic Skull, Underground Media, Konfused Konfliction, Backbeat, Electrified Mindz, Killer Crossover, Oxytech, Profunda Intellectus, Tanira, Society Music, Toxic, MTZ Noir, NACHT, Ahromatiq, Technological, Plusquam, Ushuaia Music, and many others.
El Brujo's distinctive sound, often described as cosmic, reflects his interstellar creativity and "Raw" approach across various music genres. We invite you to immerse yourself in his guest mix and enjoy the unique experience he brings to the show.
