Sometimes we forget that what we’re living right now was once just a dream.

This year reminded us of that again. Being able to travel, play music abroad and express ourselves through our own sound is something we are deeply grateful for. Every city, every dancefloor and every moment on the road means a lot to us.

2025 has been an unreal year. So many special experiences, so much growth and incredible support from all of you. From releases to shows, from studio nights to unforgettable moments around the world, it has been truly special. ✨

Thank you to all promoters, artists, our team and agent, and everyone who showed up, listened, danced and believed in what we do.

We are also very excited about what’s coming next with our label Inherit. There are many exciting things in the works.

We’re closing this year full of gratitude and motivation. 2026 is shaping up to be a big one with major releases, new projects and many new cities ahead.

Thank you for being part of this journey.💗

Happy new year!

Much love,
Alvi & Domi

Tomorrow is the day again. We are back in our beloved Tresor and are delighted to once again invite incredible talents.

Look forward to the finest techno from FENIM0RE, KLEA and SESO. All the artists have already impressed and fascinated us with their sound and track selection, which is why we are sure that they will make the night perfect! See you tomorrow in the cellar.

Now in the archive: Minimal Requirements Takeover w/ SESO // 27.06.25

Berlin based house collective @minimal_requirements recently took over the THF airwaves. Listen back to the set from @machesmax

Maximilian Herrmann, better known as SESO, is a Berlin-born and raised vinyl-only DJ and graphic design graduate who’s been shaping the underground music scene for several years. His sets—ranging from after-hours and illegal open-airs to club nights—are known for their diversity, precision, and immersive energy.

Drawing on years of experience behind the decks and a deep connection to Berlin’s iconic club culture—including time spent working at Berghain—SESO crafts dynamic soundscapes that reflect both his technical skill and refined musical sensibility. Recently, he’s been pushing his boundaries by incorporating a third turntable into his sets, adding depth and complexity to his performances.

Rooted in a lifelong love of rhythm, SESO’s journey began with percussion and years of drumming—laying the foundation for his transition into the driving grooves of techno and house.

Berlin keeps surprising me. ✨
Stumbling upon talented and creative people out of nowhere is honestly one of the best parts of living in this city.
About a year ago, I was at the Open Decks at @humboldthainclub when I first heard Seso @machesmax play. It was a vinyl-only techno set 🎶 I just danced and felt pure joy. I didn’t expect it to hit me the way it did, but it did and I was hooked🖤
Back then I remember thinking: If I ever have the chance to give him a platform, I’ll do it.
And now it finally happened 🙌🏿
Seso isn’t just musically talented, he’s also an incredibly kind, open and grounded person. The kind of person who greets you with a genuine, wide smile and brings good energy into any room. He listens and is curious. There’s real depth to him and I felt that right away.
His Private Paradise vinyl only set is everything I love about techno: raw, storytelling, immersive.
An old-school sound that creates space and emotion, that pulls you in and lets you float.
And on top of all that: Seso is also a graphic designer.
I’m incredibly proud that he designed the backprint for the NO ROOTS 01 – Congo Shirt from my label ROBOAM. That collaboration was personal to me and I just knew he was the perfect fit for it.
I love when sound and visual aesthetics align and Seso brings that connection to life in such a unique way.

About Seso @machesmax ✨

Berlin-born and raised vinyl-only DJ and graphic design graduate Maximilian Herrmann, aka SESO, has been enriching the scene with his sets for several years. After-hours, illegal open-airs, and club gigs are part of his repertoire. With diversity and clarity within his musical arrangements, he confidently handles the mixer and creates an intense atmosphere. Several years of working at Berghain and many other club visits shape his sound. Recently, he has been experimenting with expressing his sounds on three turntables. With an early passion for percussive instruments, his love of music developed from years of playing the drums to techno and house.

Enjoy his set.
For everyone who still loves old-school techno, wants to drift for a while, and craves music that actually tells a story. 🕯🌀🖤 Link in Bio!

NO ROOTS 01 back print graphic, created by @machesmax

The original idea first was to reference Congolese art, but along the way, we came to an image of a tree looking design that felt for me even more fitting. The name Mutombo means bud, symbolizing the beginning of a tree’s growth. This connection felt perfect because, without roots a tree, has no solid ground to grow from—no strong foundation to build upon.
