Scientific Sound Asia is pleased to announce the launch of a new Techno series, McCarty Shoot, presented by McCarty Records, featuring guest appearances from Grasi Francis and Coach. As an underground radio station, DJ agency and promoter serving the Asian region with an international following, Scientific Sound Asia continues to expand its platform with forward-thinking electronic programming.


McCarty Records was founded through a creative meeting between Europe and the Middle East. The label grew from a long-standing friendship between two dedicated music enthusiasts who had each spent years working within the industry. Combining their experience and vision, they established McCarty Records as a new outlet for contemporary underground sound.


From its inception, the label embraced a broad and open-minded approach to the Techno spectrum. With a desire to remain independent and forward-facing, McCarty Records releases music across multiple branches of the genre, including Techno, Melodic Techno, Deep Tech, Minimal and Tech House.


Through McCarty Shoot, the label will present a monthly selection of carefully curated releases, showcasing their own productions alongside guest contributions and standout tracks from the wider international Techno scene. The show aims to highlight emerging talent while reinforcing McCarty Records’ commitment to diverse and evolving underground electronic music.

Guest DJ Grasi Francis.


This episode’s first guest DJ is Grasi Francis. Originally from Santa Cruz do Sul in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, her musical journey began at the age of eleven when she started singing in a local choir. Around the same time, she began experimenting with vinyl at home, recording favourite tracks onto cassette tapes, laying the foundations for her future behind the decks.


As her interest in electronic music grew, she enrolled at AIMEC, one of Brazil’s recognised electronic music academies, where she developed her technical skills and deepened her understanding of club culture. Following her graduation, she continued refining her craft, focusing primarily on Techno and Tech House while expanding her versatility across the broader electronic spectrum.


Grasi’s repertoire is adaptable and dynamic, with selections shaped by the venue, atmosphere and audience while maintaining a clear emphasis on quality and dancefloor impact. Earlier in her career, she was part of the duo Ele & Ela, an experience that strengthened her stage presence and collaborative instincts. After several productive years, she chose to pursue a solo path, allowing her to further define her individual sound.


Her mixing style is rooted in traditional technique, delivered with high energy and precision. Alongside club performances, she remains active across international radio platforms, continuing to develop her profile through guest mixes and original material. With a strong foundation and forward momentum, Grasi Francis continues to build her presence within the global Techno scene.

Guest DJ COACH.


The second guest on this episode is COACH. Born Ryan Kennedy, he is a DJ, producer and drummer from Montreal, Canada, whose deep-rooted understanding of rhythm has shaped his evolution within electronic music.


His journey began at fifteen, experimenting with DJing before fully immersing himself in Montreal’s underground rave scene in 2012. With a strong percussive background and natural instinct for crowd dynamics, he quickly developed a reputation for high-impact, rhythm-driven performances.


COACH’s sound moves confidently across Techno, Hard Techno, Tech House and Peak Time styles, combining driving percussion with raw energy and precise structure. His sets are built for intensity, maintaining pressure from start to finish while remaining adaptable to the environment and audience.


In recent years, he has established himself as a prolific producer with an extensive and growing catalogue on Beatport. His releases span multiple labels, including McCarty Records, Unity Records, Techno Parade, LW Recordings and Born2Porn Records.


Recent highlights include World To Come (Coach “Fuck It” Remix), Perpetual Dark in various remix editions, Just Don’t, Rhythm Is Reality, Heretic and World Eaters, alongside remix work for Brydda, Dadgar and others. His productions range from Raw / Deep / Hypnotic Techno to Hard Techno and Peak Time, demonstrating versatility while maintaining a recognisable driving edge.


With consistent 2025 and 2026 releases across Hard Techno, Peak Time and underground Techno imprints, COACH continues to expand his international footprint. His output reflects both studio discipline and dancefloor awareness, reinforcing his presence within the global techno circuit.


As both performer and producer, COACH remains focused on forward momentum, combining rhythmic precision with uncompromising energy as he continues to develop his standing within the international electronic music scene.


Grasi opens the episode with a direct peak time structure, moving through Dadgar and Dope Amine before tightening the intensity with Coach’s Perpetual Dark. Therapy adds a heavier rhythmic punch, while the Dadgar remixes of Wormhole and Drill Mechanics introduce a more mechanical, industrial-leaning edge.


Midway through the first hour, Upgrade and Space Time Mind maintain firm drive without excessive breakdowns, keeping the focus on rhythm and pressure. Tracks such as Underworld, Raves Or Not and Techno Experience reinforce the warehouse orientation, balancing clean arrangement with raw impact.


Coach continues the second hour with multiple reinterpretations of Perpetual Dark, each version pushing further into hard techno territory. The Ben MANCINI, Audio Sin and El Brujo remixes increase the intensity, while World To Come maintains a structured peak-time build.


The final run through Sense Irregularity and Resolutions sustains the driving framework to the end. The episode remains firmly centred on peak time and hard techno throughout, presenting a cohesive, high-pressure session aligned with the McCarty Records sound.
