El Brujo presents El Brujo and the Wild Bunch episode 10 with guest DJ D ReDD on Scientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia operates as an underground electronic music radio station, DJ agency, event promoter and music news platform, connecting artists and listeners across Asia and internationally.
El Brujo, whose real name is Robert Milanesi, is an Italian DJ and producer born in 1964 whose musical background developed through Bologna’s underground electronic scene. By the early 1990s, he had become closely involved with the city’s rave culture and the emerging House and Techno community around it.
His production career moved into official releases in 2008 with Warriors on the Milan-based Open Legs label. That release marked the beginning of a catalogue that would later extend across several areas of underground electronic music.
In 2010, he founded Jambalay Records, launching the label during the opening party of Club Geminis in Ibiza harbour. The imprint became an important outlet for his own productions as well as music from artists connected with his wider network.
Jambalay Records gained broader attention in 2011 when Maya Jane Coles included material from the label in her February chart. That period also included his collaboration with Big Mojo on The Way to Mozambique, which appeared alongside the physical CD project Nutty Fellas Are Go.
His catalogue has since included releases through Elektrax, Frame Workxx, LW Recordings, Subwoofer, Berlin After Dark, Music Is The Drug, Gobekli Tepe, Fortwin Records, Bunker, Mad Rhythm, SE7ENS and Physical Techno. The breadth of those labels reflects his willingness to move across different areas of underground electronic music while retaining a raw and direct production style.
In January 2019, Plastic Dreams on Frame Workxx reached number 33 on Beatport’s Hard Techno Top 100. The result highlighted the heavier side of his catalogue and added to a body of work already established through years of independent production and label activity.
His music often centres on darker rhythms, stripped-back arrangements and club-focused energy. His productions can move between Techno and related electronic styles while maintaining the strong rhythmic identity associated with his work.
The Wild Bunch was created as a monthly platform for producers and DJs from his wider circle. Each edition combines hiss own promos and selections with music from trusted collaborators before introducing a guest artist.
Guest DJ D ReDD (second hour)
DJ D ReDD, real name Ian Bennet, was born in 1989 on the Eastside of St. Louis, Missouri, where his father was a DJ in the 1970s. That upbringing gave him an early and deep connection to music, and he began DJing at a young age before developing into a producer and addictive music lover whose work spans soulful house, techno, hard techno and deep techno.
His Beatport catalogue spans labels including Jambalay, Trench, Frame Workxx, Planet Underground, Naked Lunch, Mind Burn, Red Channel, Technological, Oyhopper and UKR. Recent output has been particularly focused on the harder and rawer end of techno, with releases on Terminus Audio, Urban Kickz Recordings and Planet Underground covering raw, deep and hypnotic techno territory.
His remix of El Brujo's Dude Asked Me For An EP on Frame Workxx Records reinforces the connection between the two artists, and 3rd Dimension on LW Recordings and In Comin on Toxic Recordings represent his more recent additions to a varied catalogue. He has held residencies at Club LA, The Monastery and Even Future, and his SoundCloud documents a body of work that reflects his belief that techno is as much a feeling as it is a sound.
The Wild Bunch Episode 10 opens with El Brujo at the controls for the first hour, the Italian-born Bologna-based producer drawing heavily from his own label network and Frame Workxx Records. U.G.O.'s Detroit 1980 in the El Brujo Remix on Lets Techno sets a raw and driving Hard Techno tone from the outset before DJ D ReDD's Dark Fate on Frame Workxx develops the harder direction.
Young Bad Twins's DA Reprisal on Subwoofer and Chris van Deer's Mandatory Fields Cross in the El Brujo Remix on Frame Workxx carry the set through the label's characteristically uncompromising sound. Makaja Gonzales's Angel Dust and El Brujo's own Raw 2 The Bones on Serapis give the first hour a personal anchor before Cristian's Program and Damaged Man's Looking Forward sustain the raw and hypnotic Techno direction.
Makaja Gonzales returns with Dirty Cash in the El Brujo Remix on Naked Lunch before Ben Rebel and Man From Object:R525L's Warp 9 Message in the Space Scream Mix on Diac Immortal provides one of the more spacious and atmospheric moments in the first hour. Migel Gloria's Suffer and Pitch!'s Last Man Standing in the El Brujo Remix on Frame Workxx bring El Brujo's selection to a close, the label's presence throughout the hour giving it a tight and coherent identity.
DJ D ReDD takes over the second hour with his own material leading the way, Emotional Rescue, 2025 and WandaVision arriving as three consecutive promos that establish his harder and more industrial Techno direction. Lester Fitzpatrick's Malware in the Jerome Baker Edit on Urban Kickz and Juan Ddd's The Joker on Beatfreak Limited sustain the Peak Time Techno energy before DJ Dextro's Mecanizado and Dax J's Zulu Nation push the set further into driving Hard Techno territory.
DJ D ReDD continues with two further promos, Echoes and Take Em Out, before Atze Ton's To The Groove on Cherry Moon provides a brief change of pace. Dario Sorano's Fuse Board and DJ Dextro's Ira on Naked Lunch carry the set towards its close before SUBSTANE's Simulacra and Simulation on Bandcamp rounds off the episode with a raw and conceptually named final selection.
El Brujo And The Wild Bunch Episode 10 is an uncompromising two hours of Hard Techno and Raw Hypnotic Techno, El Brujo's label-focused first hour giving way to DJ D ReDD's more promo-driven and equally aggressive guest selection.
