About this episode
Pfirter hosts MASCHA, who showcases her unique techno sound influenced by Berlin and Mexico City.
This week, Pfirter welcomes East-Berlin native MASCHA to the airwaves. With over a decade of immersion in the underground circuits of both Berlin and Mexico City, MASCHA has cultivated a sound defined by surgical precision and hypnotic intensity. Her style bridges the raw, industrial grit of her hometown with the soulful, driving lineage of 90s Detroit techno. Recently, she made waves by expanding the genre's boundaries through a live collaboration with the National Orchestra of Guatemala, proving her ability to command both the sweat-soaked dancefloor and the grand concert hall. For this 70-minute journey, MASCHA delivers a masterclass in tension and release. Featuring heavyweights like Oscar Mulero, Planetary Assault Systems, and Rødhåd, the mix is a tightly structured descent into the deep, rhythmic techno that defines the MindTrip aesthetic. This is MindTrip!
