Focus: Dub Techno with Moritz von Oswald, Exos & Loidis
About This Event
Moritz von Oswald, the Berlin-based producer and co-founder of Basic Channel described by The Stranger as "one of the master architects of dub techno," appears at Nowadays with Exos and Loidis. Von Oswald's long-running work—collaborations with Juan Atkins and Carl Craig and projects like the Moritz von Oswald Trio—frames the night in dub-techno studio textures and measured rhythmic focus.
About Focus: Dub Techno
At Nowadays, “Focus: Dub Techno” traces a line from Berlin’s studio lineage into a New York dance floor. Moritz von Oswald, a foundational figure behind Basic Channel and a frequent collaborator of Detroit’s Juan Atkins and Carl Craig, appears alongside Exos and Loidis for a set rooted in echo, negative space, and pressure-tested rhythm. Dub techno has circulated in NYC clubs for decades, but it rarely arrives with its originators in the room. The music’s restraint reads less like minimalism than architecture.
