Abscast

We continue our ABSCAST Series with Røttar aka Zwei Gesichter, a Cuban DJ based in Malmö, resident of the "Rusty Nails" rave that takes place in Havana and the Swedish collective "Substantiv". He began his career a few years ago as one of the promoters and residents of the popular cuban party ASSC of great notoriety and respect for its strict door policy.

Having experimented with different styles of Techno his current sound can be summed up in the keywords: Acid, Raw, Industrial and EBM. His sets are usually energetic, intense and full of tension, where he uses spontaneity as the main weapon to tell his story. As a producer, is part of the Riot In Havana duo alongside Åre:gone and has several tracks released on our label, as well as in other platforms such as Gomboc Records, Voight-Kampff or Blacklapse. Definitely one to watch on the upcoming years.

In this second ABSCAST we present Åre:gone, one of the founders of our platform and regular artist in it. With just over two years active as a DJ, this young artist has great support and popularity in the Cuban Techno scene thanks to his memorable sets and his residency in the well-known series of Rusty Nails parties that promotes Rave culture on the island.

Industrial sounds that intermingle with textures and atmospheres could describe the tonic of his sessions, but it really goes further. Much influence from the IDM and a great sense of rhythm as well as an impeccable selection, daring at times and not at all conservative, are the elements that really characterize him when he is mixing. Also excellent works on labels such as Newrhythmic, Bipolar Disorder or our very own Abstraction, which are often part of his sets, shows why it is so easy to get carried away in his appearances.
