There are a select few DJs who can go deep while spanning genres and eras - still keeping the flow and the floor intact. It's rare that David Siska doesn't play a set that is a tribute to his time deeply involved in Chicago's sweat-drenched loft parties and burgeoning techno club scene, and his devotion to the sounds of Detroit and its most diverse DJs. He co-hosts the Sonic Sunset radio show turn...

In anticipation of the No Way Back 10 Year Anniversary - New York edition on November 4, we asked our resident DJ Mike Servito to prepare a studio mix that summoned the spirit of NWB. He recorded this in one take at The Bunker HQ last week on a standard set up of 2xCDJ-2000, 2 Technics 1200 turntables, and a Rane MP2015 mixer. Like No Way Back itself, this mix is a celebration of the lost art of t...

On Saturday December 1, 2007, a snowy night in Detroit, Interdimensional Transmissions thew a party called No Way Back. We had no idea how people would react, we just felt the scene needed this.

The party didn't end un...

Steffen tells us: "I am not able to record a techno mix without an actual club/open air situation around me. It's impossible for me to get into a techno mood when I'm in the studio and by myself. So this is a live recording - from a place where the booth feels as comfortable as my own bed. and that says a lot cause i like nothing more than sleeping :)"

I could not have been more thrilled when Jasper Wolff and Maarten Mittendorff, residents of Amsterdam's legendary De School, asked Derek Plaslaiko and I to play their night. One of their tracks "Trica" had been in constant rotation for me since its release but I knew little else about them.
