  • Pharrö – Underground Afro House Mix | ONE Podcast (#106)
    Apr 22 2026
    © 2025 True Underground. All rights reserved. Born in Medellín, Colombia, and refined by over a decade of operating across the US East Coast, Pharrö is an artist built on the grit of the regional circuit and the foresight of a seasoned promoter. Now based out of Charlotte, NC, the DJ and producer is transitioning from a local powerhouse to a global contender, coming into 2026 with major releases on labels like Witty Tunes, mn2s, ALXMY, and Used Goods Recs. For Pharrö, the foundation of his sound was forged in the high-intensity atmosphere of his birthplace. The shift to the US required a recalibration of his musical identity, blending South American energy with the nuances of the North American underground. “Moving from Medellín to the US East Coast was a sonic pivot,” he explains. “In Medellín, electronic music is often high-energy and communal – the ‘Medellín Style’ tech-house and techno has a specific, driving intensity designed for massive crowds.” This adaptability has seen him share stages with a diverse roster of heavyweights, from the legendary Tony Touch to Afro-house pioneer Nitefreak. Whether playing direct support or headlining, Pharrö views his role through the lens of a curator rather than a commander. This perspective is rooted in his years spent throwing shows in Charlotte and Miami, an experience that informs every decision he makes in the studio. “Certain rooms call for a certain rhythm and sound, so I like to keep that in mind when making a track,” he says. “Throwing shows and playing different rooms helped me understand what type of audience I want to connect with.” His recent output reflects this tactical approach. The track ‘Teleport’ on ALXMY and the upcoming ‘Don’t Feel The Same’ on mn2s are linked by a specific sonic thread: melodic momentum designed for the peak hour. Meanwhile, his What’s The Move EP on Witty Tunes explores a more stripped-back, minimal tech-house aesthetic. The track ‘Me and My’, a collaboration with Moreno & Prieto, showcases his penchant for heavy percussion and a hypnotic atmosphere. When it comes to his live performances, Pharrö rejects the idea of the DJ as an “iron-fist” authority figure. Instead, he prioritises a fluid relationship with the audience, reading body language and energy levels to dictate the journey. “I see it as a collaborative exchange. I have to build a relationship with the crowd to create a meaningful connection; if I’m playing for myself rather than for them, that connection is lost. If you try to ‘command’ a room with ego, you risk losing the soul of the party.” As he looks toward a 2026 calendar filled with international signings, Pharrö remains grounded in the principle that got him here: persistence. His Colombian heritage remains the heartbeat of his identity, acting as a universal language that allows him to connect with demographics across borders. “Ultimately, I want the Pharrö name to stand for consistency, passion, and euphoria on all dance floors,” he concludes. “I want to cultivate an environment that people know they are free to express themselves, let go & and enjoy the journey.” Check out all ONE editions here { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://www.trueunderground.one/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "ONE Podcast", "item": "https://www.trueunderground.one/podcast/one-podcast/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Pharrö - ONE-106", "item": "https://www.trueunderground.one/pharro-underground-afro-house-mix-one-podcast-106/" } ] }, { "@type": "NewsArticle", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://www.trueunderground.one/pharro-underground-afro-house-mix-one-podcast-106/" }, "headline": "Pharrö - Underground Afro House Mix | ONE Podcast (#106)", "description": "Medellín-born DJ and producer Pharrö discusses his transition from regional promoter to global contender and his upcoming 2026 releases on Witty Tunes and mn2s.", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://www.trueunderground.one/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Copy-of-soundcloud-covers-47.jpg", "width": 1241, "height": 550 }, "datePublished": "2026-04-22T18:00:00Z", "dateModified": "2026-04-22T18:00:00Z", "author": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "True Underground Editorial Team", "url": "https://www.trueunderground.one/about-dance-music-media-platform/" }, "publisher": { "@type": "NewsMediaOrganization", "name": "True Underground", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://www.trueunderground.one/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/cropped-tu-logo.png" }, "contactPoint": { "@type": "ContactPoint", "email": "news@trueunderground.one", "url": "https://www.trueunderground.one/contact/", "contactType": "editorial" } } }, { "@type": "PodcastEpisode", "name": "ONE-106: Pharrö", "episodeNumber": "106", "...

  • Angara – Melodic Techno Mix | ONE Podcast (#105)
    Feb 18 2026
    © 2025 True Underground. All rights reserved. Angara – Forgiveness, Contrast and the Architecture of Narrative House French duo Angara unpack forgiveness, contrast and cinematic house music on ONE Podcast 105, tracing the path from Rwanda to their forthcoming debut album on Embassy One. Angara exist in the space between propulsion and reflection. The French duo, Quentin and Loris, have steadily shaped a form of narrative house that privileges emotional continuity as much as club function. Their music is built for movement, but it lingers long after the dancefloor clears. “We’re not trying to fit into a box,” they explain. “What drives us is creating electronic music that tells a story. Something that works on a dancefloor, but also in moments of introspection.” Growing up in the south of France, surrounded by a strong minimal techno culture, repetition became foundational to their emotional language. A single returning note, a restrained melodic phrase, a groove that unfolds patiently. They learned early that complexity is not a requirement for depth. Sometimes emotion lives inside what repeats. The project itself emerged through distance. Having met as teenagers and later gone their separate ways, Angara only formed once experience and perspective had accumulated. Their reunion was not nostalgic. It was necessary. “We didn’t reconnect to relive the past. We reconnected because we needed to create together, now.” Contrast defines their output. Fragile melodies sit against driving rhythms. Release follows restraint. That tension mirrors both their personalities and their lived experiences. Tracks often begin with memory rather than mechanics. A production only survives if it carries emotional recognition. Technical precision alone is insufficient. Their breakthrough Rwanda EP marked a decisive evolution. More club-focused while retaining their melodic DNA, it connected globally and expanded their audience significantly. Yet success introduced pressure. Listener messages, personal stories attached to their tracks, reinforced why they create in the first place: connection over metrics. Touring across Europe added a physical dimension. In the studio, emotion is internal. On stage, it becomes visible. Drops translate into bodies moving. Tension registers across a crowd. Live performance did not alter their studio philosophy, but it clarified purpose. Forgive You: Translating Acceptance into Rhythm Their latest release, Forgive You, signals refinement rather than reinvention. More rhythm-driven and structurally direct, the track centres on self-forgiveness. Accepting past decisions made from fear, convention or obligation. Recognising them as part of becoming. “Forgive You is about forgiving yourself. Taken paths out of fear, convention, obligation. It takes time to accept. To tell yourself it was what it was, that it’s okay.” The production mirrors that discipline. A square, almost rigid pulse anchors the track, representing the daily work of reconciliation. Offbeat elements interrupt the pattern, echoing moments of doubt. The emotional centre arrives through a sampled vocal from Ingrid Lukas’ We Are Touching Heaven, adding fragility and clarity to the narrative. Forgive You follows Out At Sea, a meditation on memory and first love. Together they form connected emotional states: attachment and acceptance. Both lead toward a larger body of work, with Angara confirming a broader narrative underway ahead of their 2026 debut album on Embassy One. As the project expands, their priority remains singular: honesty. Opportunities increase. External expectations intensify. The red line is identity. If Angara could be reduced to one human experience, it would be becoming who you are through what you live. Their music is not trend-driven architecture. It is memory, discipline and contrast translated into sound.

    Feb 4 2026
    © 2025 True Underground. All rights reserved. 4000 Hz: The Parisian Producer Redefining Nu-Trance 4000 Hz (Sacha) is a Paris-born electronic music artist at the forefront of the nu-trance and techno movement. Known for a hardware-first workflow and a background in rave culture, his sound bridges the gap between modern French techno and UK club energy. Key Takeaways: The Rise of 4000 Hz Artistic Identity: A hybrid of Parisian rave culture and hardware-driven spontaneity.Signature Sound: “Nu-trance”—a blend of modern techno weight and old-school trance euphoria.Major Milestone: Making his high-profile UK debut at Parklife Festival Manchester 2026.Label Pedigree: Key releases on Teletech, KTK, INNERGATE, and MOTZ.Global Footprint: Expanding from Paris (Rex Club) to South America and Germany. What are the Parisian origins of 4000 Hz? Parisian electronic music is defined by friction. For Sacha, the city’s mix of intimate clubs and industrial warehouses provided a diverse training ground. “The Parisian scene stands out for its eclecticism. Moving from straight techno nights to hybrid formats taught me early on not to lock myself into a single aesthetic.” The 4000 Hz Hardware-First Production Philosophy Unlike many digital-native producers, 4000 Hz utilizes hardware to maintain a physical connection to sound design. Spontaneity: Limitations of machines encourage “happy accidents.”Tactile Design: Creating an instinctive relationship with rhythm.Authenticity: Staying raw and focused on the collective experience over digital perfection. What is the “Nu-Trance” Movement? The nu-trance movement is a reaction against clinical techno. It embraces emotion, speed, and melody without irony. Element 4000 Hz Approach Foundation The heavy, industrial weight of modern techno. Atmosphere The bounce and uplifting euphoria of 90s trance. Vibe Faster, playful, and high-energy. “Nu-trance stands out by embracing emotion and melody. It reconnects techno with euphoria while still moving forward.” Breakthrough Releases: From Teletech to INNERGATE The trajectory of 4000 Hz is marked by strategic releases that helped define his brand in different territories: ‘Hot Sensation’ (Teletech): His international calling card. The track’s melodic edge provided an entry point for harder, global audiences. ‘GUN FINGERS’: An early signal of his stylistic direction. Label Partnerships: KTK (consistency), INNERGATE (mood), and MOTZ (reach) have solidified his underground credibility. Expanding the Global Map: UK, Germany, and South America The UK Market & Parklife Manchester The UK crowd is known for immediate energy.

The German Benchmark Playing at venues like Gotec and in Berlin served as a litmus test for his technical precision, ensuring his sound holds up in the historical heart of techno culture. 2026 Vision: Sustainable Growth and Creative Discipline Despite the rapid momentum, 4000 Hz prioritizes creative discipline. His 2026 strategy focuses on: Quality over Quantity: Avoiding the “overextension” trap of the modern touring circuit.Authenticity: Ensuring every set reflects his eclectic influences.Controlled Evolution: A deliberate approach to production and performance. “Keeping quality and authenticity at the core is the only sustainable path. I want people to feel genuine passion for the craft.” Check out all ONE editions here The post 4000 Hz – Nu-Trance Mix | Teletech | ONE Podcast (#104) appeared first on True Underground.
