They say all great things are worth waiting for, and we couldn’t agree more on a day when we are able to welcome Los Angeles techno flag-bearer Drumcell for his first Global Vibe Radio mix.

In Interview with Ben Sims
With over two decades of experience under his belt, Ben Sims has a well-deserved reputation as one of the world’s most in-demand and leading techno DJs and producers – a tight, energetic mixer who skilfully weaves together his own distinctive blend of tough funk and hard grooves.
Sims doesn’t follow trends and is one of those now-rare DJs who takes his skills behind the decks as seriously as DJs used to in the ’80s and ’90s. Ask anyone who matters in the techno world and they will agree: Sims is a no-compromise artist who has constantly evolved while always remaining faithful to the underground sounds of techno. It comes as no surprise to anyone versed in the techno scene that Sims is also widely-known and appreciated for his three-deck wizardry and dexterity, as his now-viral Boiler Room at AVA Festival from earlier this year proves.
Observe.06 Will Feature The Los Angeles Debut of Assailants (Ben Sims & Truncate)
It is always with great anticipation that Southern California techno aficionados look forward to Thanksgiving weekend in Los Angeles.
For nearly two decades, a collective of like-minded individuals have come together to throw an annual techno gathering that has, through its growth, become one of the most influential party series of North America. Originally called Interface, the party series known as Observe went through a re-branding last year while continuing to deliver events not only in Los Angeles (twice), but also Detroit during Movement weekend, Miami and Chicago.
OBSERVE: A New Techno Beginning in Los Angeles Starting November 24th
For the last 15 years, Droid Behavior and their INTERFACE event series have become synonymous with Los Angeles’ now-thriving techno scene.
There is no doubt that the two brands have been at the forefront of the LA techno world, pushing a sound that was once widely rejected in the city. The team built something great out of nothing, pouring blood, sweat and tears to overcome obstacles, doubters and resistance to build a foundation upon which all techno events in Los Angeles have been built since.
At 6AM we recognize the crucial role INTERFACE events have had in the creating of the techno scene in this city, a scene which makes it possible for us to contribute with our own events today. In fact, most of us at 6AM can directly pinpoint to the exact INTERFACE event that set us down this techno road we are still enjoying today. For us, it was these events that directly lead us to fall in love with techno and, as a result, want to work in this industry.
As drumcell and Truncate announced today via social media, while Droid currently remains dormant for an unforeseeable future, a portion of the crew behind those revolutionary events has decided to move forward with a new vision and a new project: OBSERVE.
