July Podcast: 2 HOUR SPECIAL - RSI Radio Show with guest DJs Marcel Heese and Voltergeist!
Written by Kenny Breaks, host of RSI Radio:
"Guys!
Got an absolute stormer of a show lined up this week, well if you're into fresh underground techno that is!
On the warm up we've got Voltergeist. A fellow Ayrshire lad who's been making electronic music for 15 years and now runs his own label, Microrave Records. He managed to get some attention with a track featured on Future Music magazine back in July 1998, alongside Autechre, Dave Angel, Kevin Saunderson and Funk D’ Void. He developed his live performance skills by playing at numerous Student Unions and clubs around Glasgow and Edinburgh. In 2003 he met Emotiquon co-writer James Rehill and together they went on to remix artists such as Heaven 17, Enter Shikari & Shitdisco.
The music of Voltergeist is inspired by his love of deep house, abstract electronica, minimal techno, and heavy “blissed-out” dub music. Living in the heart of the Ayrshire countryside is also a major inspiration, surrounded by beautiful woodland waterfalls, rolling hills, and dramatic sunsets on the West Coast over the Isle of Arran. Sound good? You'd better believe it!

Mixed, produced and recorded by Voltergeist on 17th June 2009
When I was arranging Smear's mix for the radio a while back he mentioned to me that he knew Marcel Heese and he'd be keen to do an exclusive for us too. Now, I know RSI is really all about local DJ mixes but I felt I couldn't pass up the opportunity and I have to say, the mix is pretty phenomenal.
Marcel Heese is a resident DJ at the now legendary German club, Tresor. He's an avid fan of Detroit, Chicago, Dub Techno, Ambient, Noise, Industrial, Breakcore and Dubstep to name a few and his current sets are an amalgamation of all those genres but in spite of such diversity he manages to keep them smooth and congruent.
In April 2008 Marcel became part of the prestigious Tresor Headquarters team, besides playing in Germany he has also visited a few foreign clubs in Poland and Slovenia.
His current favourite labels and artists are: Downwards, Counterbalance, Axis, Warp, Tresor, Sähkö, Token, Transmat, FXHE, Basic Channel/Maurizio, Mojuba, Tectonic, Redshape, Bitstream, Robert Hood, Planetary Assault Systems, Jamal Moss aka Hieroglyphic Being, Drexciya, Counterpart, Deepchord, Lerosa, Theo Parrish, Sleeparchive, Ostgut Ton, Sandwell District, Ancient Methods, 2562, Martyn, Vidab. Influences of all those can be heard in Marcel’s exclusive mix for Leith FM, he's chilled out a bit recently, decreased his BPM, adding to increased power in the groove.
