DJ WEEKLY PODCAST: LEN FAKI

Berghain resident gives a taste of his forthcoming UK gigs

A Berghain residents since its opening in 2004, Len Faki is one of European techno's best loved and most in-demand artists, his pumping sets normally utilising three CDJs and a Yamaha RM1x unit to showcase his long honed skills as a DJ.

Also a long-standing producer with a discography stretching back to 1999, he currently has three labels to his name, Figure, Podium and Figure, and a back catalogue of punishing classics such as 'Death by House' and personal re-edits like his killer version of DJ Hyperactive's 'Wide Open'.

With three gigs coming up across the next three months in England and Scotland, Faki dropped us this mix to give a flavour of his current tastes – tribal drums, stomping kicks and trippy atmospherics booked ended by bright, melodic flourishes.
