Today's mix:
Caught in the Act by John Thomas 2001 Techno
Good lord, this was quite an extensive journey, folks. Back in 2001, France's John Thomas, who'd been DJing since the late 80s, *finally* put out the only mix that he'd ever release commercially in his entire career: Caught in the Act, on French label Logistic Records. The way this story goes is that Thomas decided to start producing sometime around '96, and then in '97 Logistic would launch with his own debut release, soon followed by some records that he had also made with a guy named Olivier Micheli too, under the name of Static Drum. In fact, although Thomas didn't found Logistic himself, it was pretty much either he or Static Drum that was responsible for the label's first 15 releases altogether, until Detroit techno legend Robert Hood broke that trend in 2000.
And in the run-up to releasing his debut LP, Blackstage, Thomas also put out this simply wild mix that same year, which really seems to serve as a contemporaneously multi-flavored and super dense clinic of highly rhythmic and throbbing techno music. It's not much to start, but eventually, when Thomas decides that he wants to solidify in a dark and dystopian direction, this thing ends up developing into a total monster.
And this isn't one of those linear mixes where tracks simply fade into and out of one another, either; JT's doing some pretty sweet multi-deck blending here. For example, he lets this mix's very own crown jewel, Umek's "Mamomit"—a song whose melody sounds like you asked a robot to play the most fucked up kind of jazz that it could possibly come up with—bleed all the way throughout the succeeding track, S.B. Project's "Cultural Co-Operation (B2)."
Some people may balk at Thomas' choice to not stay in one lane here, though. I mean, 33 tracks is quite a lot for just a 74-minute mix, after all. And while nothing beats the extended section of sci-fi madness on here, which on top of those two aforementioned tracks also includes Robert Hood's "Moveable Parts Chapter 1 Untitled 2," Olga+Jozef's "#07 B1," "A4" off of Ben Long's Imperial Leather EP, and the stunning "So Big So Close" by Diskordia as well, it does feel a little bit off when he decides to keep going after venturing outside of that realm. Like, I'll never say no to Andrew Mc Lauchlan's Brazilian-sampled "Love Story," one of the most essential techno tracks of the early 2000s, but it really would've served as a nice bow on this thing, especially since Thomas opened up his mix with a different Mc Lauchlan track too; it just doesn't really feel like there was a need to keep going with four more tracks after that one.
But be that as it may, the long and meaty middle of this mix is where it really truly shines; it takes some time to get going, and then it takes some time to peter out, but between all that is some terrific techno music and mixing, and after you give this one a complete spin, it'll probably have you wondering why this is the only set that this long-seasoned DJ ever ended up releasing 🤔.
Listen to the full mix here.
Highlights:
Sterac - "Liteon" Percy X - "Track 2" Alkahest - "Elemental" Umek - "Mamomit" S.B.

I thought I posted this on my tumblr when I did it, but I didn't. So here is the Halloween episode of the Temisan Adoki Experience on Twitch from 10.31.21...two years ago today. I don't go to Halloween parties and I never get booked to DJ any Halloween parties, so I like DJing on the turntables in my apartment.
Now for those of you wondering, I have to admit, I was going through a period of time where I didn't want to do music anymore earlier this year. I let some haters get in my head with their negative criticism, I was sick and tired of my new music getting ignored by music journalists, and I was just frustrated about making money with it that I forgot why I do this...for enjoyment. For stress relief. For my mental health. And most importantly, to have fun.
It took the encouraging words of some friends online and IRL to get me back on my shit. Not to mention, I've been DJing since 1999, this is just second nature to me.
With that said, enough of me babbling and rambling...here's the mix and the tracklist. Thanks for your support.
