  • Adam Beyer: 30 years of Drumcode
    Jul 15 2025

    With 30 years of Drumcode on the horizon, we sit down with techno titan Adam Beyer to reflect on a career that has shaped the sound of dance floors around the world. From buying his first record in Sweden to commanding the biggest stages in global techno, Adam takes us back to where it all began, sharing stories from his early days DJing and producing, the moment Drumcode was born, and how the label grew from a gritty underground project into a worldwide institution.


    We dive into key turning points: signing breakout artists, throwing the first Drumcode events, and the challenges of building something lasting. Adam opens up about the pressure of staying true to his vision, what he's learned from life in Ibiza, and the emotional moments that still give him goosebumps- from Cocoon Mondays in Amnesia's main room to sunrise sets that reminded him exactly why he does this.


    As he looks ahead to Drumcode’s 30th anniversary, Adam shares the philosophy that’s carried him through three decades at the frontline of techno, and what he hopes to pass on to the next generation.

  • Fleur Shore: Going viral is wild
    Jul 8 2025

    We finally made it happen! Fleur Shore, a woman I absolutely love being around and chatting to, is up next. Her dedication, drive, and all-round kind, grounded energy have taken her to the top of the game, and in this episode, we unpack the journey that got her there.

    From the early gigs that sparked her passion to carving out a sound and identity all her own, Fleur walks us through her rise in the electronic music world. We dive into how Ibiza became a pivotal chapter in her story, from first stepping foot on the island to delivering some of her most unforgettable sets there.

    She opens up about the challenges she’s faced along the way, including the viral moment that catapulted her from 30k to 300k followers in just one month, and the resilience it took to stay steady as everything changed around her. We also explore how vlogging became her unexpected secret weapon for connecting with fans and documenting the chaos, beauty, and growth of life on the road.

    Fleur shares how she stays grounded, healthy, and creatively fuelled while constantly on the move, and gives us her honest take on where club culture is headed.

  • Elijah: The future is DIY
    Jul 1 2025

    You might know him for his iconic Yellow Squares, those bold, catchy prompts that have redefined how we talk about creativity, visibility, and value in the age of social media, . What started as bite-sized creative provocations have now evolved into a brilliant new book, Close the App, Make the Ting, a manifesto for artists navigating the noisy world of social media.

    But Elijah’s story runs deeper than Instagram. From co-founding the legendary label Butterz and championing grime’s rise, to blending DJing, strategy, and creative education, Elijah has spent over a decade shaping the culture from the inside out.

    In this episode, we rewind to where it all began, his love for music, the roots of UK club culture, and how his purpose has shifted along the way. We talk about shaping education after struggling to connect with it himself, and the lessons he’d bake into curriculums if he had the chance. He shares his perspective on DIY vs. labels in 2025, what sustainability really means in a content-driven industry, and the creative thinking behind some of his most powerful Yellow Squares.
