Foxcast 34: DJ Hell (October 2019)

Hold on to your caskets and get ready to raise your talons in triumph and terror as DJ Hell brings us on a dizzying two hour and 40-minute techno peregrination for Foxcast 34. Ahead of his Cityfox Halloween 2019 appearance, DJ Hell presents this mix that seemingly parallels the Electroclash pioneer’s career characteristics: consistent and enduring, protean and piquant, meditative and visionary. We celebrate this master of the techno vanguard for four decades of pioneering and blending musical genres, establishing label International Deejay Gigolos, co-collaborating with other critically acclaimed industry label giants and artists, serving as creative mentor and guide to both established fashion and music industry brands, and more influential firsts than many can and have achieved in their lifetime. His humble beginnings as an experimental, versatile club DJ in 1978 propelled this electronic music industry giant into becoming a recognized A&R lead, one of the first techno DJs to produce his own records, a resident at Munich’s first-ever techno club, and a fashion elite advisor and icon. Now, with more than 300 singles and albums released through the IDG label, and more than five studio albums featuring originally produced material, there’s almost no sound DJ Hell hasn’t explored and exposed his audience to and this mix is no different. On October 26, join us, 19 other artists, and your dancing friends in marveling at this man who mastered techno, introduced the world to the first trance compilation, founded a popular subgenre of techno; a man who deserved being awarded the title ‘Man of the Year’ after producing a double album that replicated New York nightlife’s seductive and elusive day-to-night sound and culture.
