We are thrilled to share Mary Yuzovskaya's set recorded live from Monument Festival 2025 as part of our MNMT 500 celebrations. Mary Yuzovskaya runs her set like an old but reliable steam engine locomotive. Except this train is going to Hogwarts. Mary is a responsible conductor, making sure everyone is on board, getting their bodies going at a steady pace, warming up the system for what's to come. Later. Her sound lives in a hypnotic but assertive space. The hypnotic part comes from steady patterns that loop and settle into the body. Rhythms that repeat long enough to quiet the thinking mind. You are not distracted by constant changes. The groove stays in place and draws you in through consistency. The whole Monument family is dancing in sync. Looking as good as ever. High in energy and anticipation. And then. The sky opens. But, we have our best lasers ON, saved for this occasion, saturday night, they weren't used on friday at all, and when the pouring rain hits the upgraded lasers, we have a million diamonds falling towards us. The crowd roars. Celebrates what nature throws at us. Surrenders to its will. No one left the dancefloor to seek refuge in their tents. No one. Mary Yuzovskaya responds... If you were there, you know that this was the start to what can only be described as the Champions League of festival night shifts. With Yuzovskaya, Pacho and Doltz seemingly playing one after another. Mary’s job was to get the crowd going, but at the same time leave room for more. She delivered.

Steve Bicknell enters the main room at The Villa, Oslo. With decades of experience, Bicknell plays with patience and intent. He does not rush the room. It takes about 25 minutes before he even remotely steps on gaspedal. His sound is rooted in deep and stripped back techno. Often influenced by dub, early UK and Detroit traditions. The set starts in the shadows, with sparse rhythms, low pressure. Early on, there is space. Space to arrive. Space to breathe. As the set continues, he builds through repetition. A new percussion line slips in almost unnoticed. A bassline tightens. The groove becomes firmer without becoming aggressive. Tracks are chosen for their texture and weight, with smooth transitions. The focus is on flow, and the dance floor is slowly pulled together. Later in the set, the pressure increases and the rhythm becomes more insistent. The bass becomes more physical. By this point, the room is locked into the hypnosis. Thank you Steve. And thank you to everyone who came to share this night with us Follow : https://soundcloud.com/steve-bicknell https://www.instagram.com/steve_bicknell/

Raär is a producer, live act, DJ and studio mastering engineer from Belgium. A true artist, who is not pinned down on one particular style or emotion: from soothing ambient to heavy and dark percussion based techno workouts to IDM-inspired takes on everything in-between. This live set was captured at the Stagno Records and Omen Wapta night in Milan last year and is one of his first longform live appearances. This set distills fragility and force into a compact, tactile listening experience. A rare snapshot of process in evolution: Raär’s performance moves with restraint, built around unreleased material, early sketches from his Incentive LP (released on Omen Wapta earlier this year) and glimpses of what’s to come in his collaboration with Stagno.

Denise Rabe is a Berlin based DJ and producer. A true veteran selector, Rabe has commanded the booths of the most respected institutions, including Berghain, Tresor and De School, cementing her reputation as an artist who creates worlds rather than just mixing tracks. Her studio output possesses an intoxicating depth and precision, with releases on the likes of Stroboscopic Artefacts, her own Rabe imprint and 30D Records, including her very recently released outstanding debut album ‘Transition’ - a complex, high-fidelity deep space odyssey - essential listening. For this session, Rabe orchestrates a sonic narrative that exists in the liminal space between contrasting forces, effortlessly balancing the realm between darkness and light, melancholy and euphoria. The mix unfolds as a dark, hypnotic, and richly textured deep mind trip, where industrial rhythms are softened by depth and nuance. This is techno distilled to its primal core—raw, driving, and beautifully complex. Step into the abyss now.

Samuel van Dijk is a true musical chameleon, a producer who moves fluidly between distinct sonic identities. Whether crafting electro-tinged works as VC-118A, deep dub textures as Mohlao, or the submerged aquatic soundscapes of Multicast Dynamics, his mastery of the craft is absolute. Recorded within the intimate glow of the Monument Festival after-party in Oslo, this session captures the final, tender exhale of a weekend defined by shared energy. Multicast Dynamics guides us into a restorative space where time dilates and the pulse slows. He navigates a kaleidoscope of genre and emotion. Shifting effortlessly between the meditative drift of new age, ethereal ambient soundscapes, and the grounded, organic rhythms of trip-hop and experimental world music, the set is unified by a palpable sense of warmth. It is a selection mixed with mood and the heart of love - a gentle, reality-warping trip designed to heal and elevate.
