Ricky and Ale reflect on a decade-long journey through sound — from early industrial experiments to more organic, groove-driven productions.

They open up about rediscovering inspiration, rebalancing their creative partnership, and the decision to evolve individually while keeping Tapefeed’s vision alive.

The conversation delves into the evolution of their production style, the balance between concept, message, and functionality in techno, the story behind their label Inveterate and its political undercurrents, the emotional impact of the pandemic on their sound, and the ongoing realities of sustaining an underground techno project in today’s industry.
