Emit 010 - MMali

About this episode
The tenth episode of the emit podcast series features MMali, a driving force of the endemit crew, recorded at the closing set of Ende Mit 25, our New Year's party. It's 5am on January 1st, 2026 — that liminal hour when the night finally gives way and a new year begins to take shape.
This recording captures a moment the crew had been waiting for: the return of proper closing sets at Kader. MMali steps up to guide everyone through dawn with hard-hitting, poetic techno that manages to feel both relentless and uplifting. There's something about closing sets that demands a different energy — the room has earned its exhaustion, and the music needs to honor that while still pushing forward. MMali delivers exactly that, balancing raw power with enough warmth to send people into 2026 feeling like something good is ahead. It's techno that hits hard but leaves you smiling, the kind of sendoff a night like this deserves.

MMali
MMali – also performing as Issun-bōshi – stands firmly behind the idea that music should be felt, not only heard.
MMali is a Slovenian producer and performer based in Ljubljana, who has established himself as one of the most creative and versatile Slovenian underground DJs. He has built a reputation performing and curating events in Slovenia, including a boutique summer festival, Izvir/Endemit. For over a decade, he has been shaping the local electronic music scene with a visionary approach to event organization, envisioned by the Formaviva crew and refined by his new collective, Endemit.
In his production and sets, he undertakes a progressive path to transcend the boundaries of techno, exploring groovy, melodic genres – a unique taste he most likely acquired at music school, while experimenting in a jazz band.
Matej's recent vinyl release on the Endemit label is his tribute to deep, atmospheric, percussive techno. It features a remix by Inland and promises future collaboration with other Berghain residents, such as Efdemin.
